I'll just be as honest as I can. I have not found any song that Elvis has done that I don't like. I have loved Elvis ever since I was a young boy, and that's a long time. I'm 70 and my love for his music has never changed. The best singer ever. Period. Thank you for bringing him to us again.
There never was a difficult song for this amazing singer. NEVER TO BE REPEATED!
Thanks for all you do!! Even though I grew up listening to Elvis on the radio, I was 19 when he died, I've been on an Elvis journey ever since the movie came out. I could kick myself that I never went to one of his concerts!! I do remember watching the Aloha Special on tv. I was in high school. He simply is the best entertainer there ever has been!!!
I love the shows from the November tour!
Elvis could sing anything!!!! He had a voice no one has had since.
ELVIS ALWAYS NUMBER ONE
That is one of my favorite songs. So sexy!! Elvis jumped into that song with both feet. Dragging that sound up from his toes it looked and felt like. Made the hair on your arms stand up, take notice and dance. That sound, man!! Where the hell did that come from?? Once you heard that sound, that look, that magic that pulled you in and sorta branded you NOTHING stood up to it.
Love his voice. Every time I hear the first notes of any song, it is so crazy good and it is like hearing him for the first time. His voice is just the best ever, ever, ever.
One of my absolute favorites, especially the 68 performance! Thank you, safe travels & may God be with you always!
I honestly believe that Elvis sings the BEST love songs. He sings with clarity and he always gets in the mood of the song he's singing. THE BEST!
His talent really exploded after his movie contract expired! This performance knocked my socks off! It highlighted his voice range, not to mention he sang it in a very sensual manner, “that only he could do”!! I’m hanging on a ridge waiting to hear the rest of this story!😊🎸
Steve Binder, who produced the 68 Special, said that once Elvis started singing he just kept singing-long past the time he had planned to sing. Steve said that much had to be edited out of the performance. I loved how Elvis looked like he was finally doing what he truly loved. ❤️
Thank you! He sure learned how to nail that one! You’re so right! He had something to prove and boy did he! Just love ❤️that man!
I truly love your videos. Elvis was the man, and is the man!!
Oh thank you! ElvisistheMan 👍🏻
I enjoy the information you put out and I LOVE that you are keeping Elvis relevant with new generations.
Oh of course 💪🏼
Definitely one of the best elvis channels out there. Massive thanks and respect from England
Thanks man I appreciate it!!
@@ElvisistheMan_ your welcome my friend keep up the great work. Loved you visit to Graceland
It was a blast man
Love this song. Elvis was wonderful no matter what he sang.
Great Channel, glad i discovered it!
Me to, really interested in Elvis’s work he was and still is my favourite artist 🥰
Oh, I agree with you!
This was one of Elvis s dad's favorite songs he recorded. He loved. Known only to him. Elvis presley could sing anybody s song make it come alive a put his own feelings into it. Elvis presley was a very Emotional humble God loving man. Elvis presley was something else
I know that's right like when he went and did like a bridge over troubled water and Simon & Garfunkel was there after it was over Diamond turn to the other one and fit I give up
Great performance! Elvis was still singing this powerful song on his last tour in 77.
Love it. No matter how he sings he never went wrong to me. Beautiful!! I think its great he told how well he did cause he'd been out. Wonderful!!
His Voice and looks , his Charisma . BEAUTIFUL handsome kind man who deserved so much. Love ELVIS""
That is my favorite of Elvis song. I always say that to my wife when I meet her anywhere. She just loved Elvis and my greeting to her was always exciting to her. She is now 77 years old and confined in a nursing home for the last 9 years. I always greet her with "I was trying to get to you" P.S. We have been married for 58 years.
That song gives you goose bumps because of the passion he puts into it. I love it!
That’s Elvis!!
I loved it!!! Nobody could do it better. That is the King of Rock!
Love that song!!! Even on the road you’re gifting us, with Elvis performances. Thank you!!! Safe Travels!!! Stay Blessed 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Keeping it 💯 always!!
He didn't have to rehearse, he was always PERFECT!!! Always the king
Awesome!!! All the different characteristics of Elvis’ voice can be heard on just this one song... one of my top 800 (Lol)in the Elvis library- this was a fantastic/ rare version- - TCB Frankie’Elvis’- 👌👍
Always wondered how he could record this song, but then again there were so many songs that has me stumped as to how he was able to hit those notes..but then again his voice was absolutely unparalleled!!!! Thanks for keeping us all so well informed and all of your hard work and dedication! 💙
Watch Aloha from Hawaii, last concert 6/27/77 when he sings HURT, OMG THE NOTES HE HITS IS UNBELIEVABLE!
Kendra Freeman I’ve seen them both and they are unbelievable!!! Remarkable how incredible his voice was.. 💙🙌🏻💙
Beautiful man and fantastic voice
Loved him at 10 yrs old and still to
This day..ty for sharing this video
Loving you always Ekvis
Great performance. Accurate detail about the High notes. When he sang like that using his scratchy voice he was soooo sexy. He was...Is ..and will be the man. ❤️🇮🇹
Ciao Sabrina!
@@massimomaxmajorana ciao Massimo!
Sabrina De Cristofano get in touch with me!
Sabrina De Cristofano Sabrina get in touch with me. I have some Elvis recording (cover) and I need the opinion of some hardcore fans!
Yes he is still the king
Elvis cld out-sing, out-perform ANYONE!! He cld TOUCH YOUR SOUL!!!! Never lost these abilities.
Elvis Worked with JD in vocal emission. Later in the years he was able to hit higher notes. In the video of “separate ways” from the on tour footage You can see Elvis singing “each other” and then smiling with JD. It’s because JD coached him on diaphragm sustaining. Elvis as humble as he was was always open on learning new vocal techniques.
Thanks for the insight!
Who is JD ?
Sumner from the stamps .. he had the deep bass voice
Pibly JD Sumner. The background vocalist with the very low voice. (Probably lowest voice in the Guinness)
@@ElvisistheMan_ anytime! Let me know if you can get in touch with me. I want to let you hear something.
Good version. I like this song and that funky fringe suit Elvis wore on that show.
Thought the same....
Great song!
Great outfit!
Elvis was a Force to be reckoned with !!!!!! He was the KING !!!
Hi David,
I love this song. It is hard to sing but he pulled it off as always.
Thanks David xxx 💝
Elvis always does a great job with his songs. He not only sang the lyrics, he conducted how the musicians played-controlling when they ‘came in’ on the playing. He actually did the producing of the songs. That’s why he was swinging his arms around, to pump the band up when they were just playing listlessly. He wanted enthusiasm.
The 68 version is amazing. The best. I liked all the versions all the way until his last concerts in 77. He crushes it in 68 though. It's raw. He's energetic. He's raspy. It's rockin'. Awesome. I don't care for the original from 56.
I like the clip that I put in the closing...
I like the 56 version as well.
I dug the early version because it was the only one he actually yodeled in!
Thank you as always by giving us great clips of Elvis first time ever I'd heard him sing that song in 1970 of course I know and love Elvis in 1968 stay safe the Goat if he did remark about how many records he'd sold so what he would only be telling the truth 😷✋👍
That’s right! He says “Come to Memphis if you don’t believe me!”
one of the greatest songs from elvis
all versions great
but the 68 comback special version is phenomenal and breathtaking
He was always the king and he will always be the king he had a voice like no other
Elvis had always many songs considered diffcult to sing since his very beggining.I'd like to mention from "Aloha From Hawaii" his live performance of What Now My Love...
Brilliant version of what now my love by Elvis in Aloha concert
And It’s Over! My gosh he nailed the ending!!
Yet another unseen / heard gem your keeping the king fresh thanx man love it , best wishes from 🇮🇪 TCB
💯
When Elvis did the '68 Special...you will notice he had a little more 'grit' ...in his voice.. THAT was due to his contantly singing...as they filmed the special over a few days... It shows up a lot in the FINAL song... If I Can Dream..
I never heard anything about Elvis bragging! It's hard to believe because he was such a humble man, it would've been out of character, unless someone set him off, is the only way I can see!
This song is a badass song!
Ioved this song elvisistheman and always will be over a billion records sold can’t say more keep it the king ELVISISTHEMAN thank you !
Get shaky listening to all different versions of this chilling song ~ ELVIS you're really breathtaking😍😍
He is the finest man ever 💕💕💕💕🥰🥰
Elvis , Number One Singer Of The World ! !
I’m a hardcore fan but some of the content u put out is new to me I’m so grateful!!!
Thanks awesome!
That’s* I’m always excited to see something new
I love that song
This song, to me, was a foundation song for him I think. The 50's version, 1968-1970 version(s) and the 1977 version are all different from one another, but each is great in their own way, and each completely Elvis. You mentioned you didn't think they rehearsed the song and I think you are correct as you can hear Elvis calling out, "break" "bridge" and other directions to the band, and they only did maybe a 3rd or half of the song.I had no clue Jerry West was ever at an Elvis concert and I think that's was great to know that he was there.
1-08-35. A STAR IS BORN. ELVIS ,. JUST BEING MODEST NOTHING WAS HARD FOR HIM TO SING..VERNON LOVED THE SONG, COURSE I'M SURE VERNON LOVED AÑY SONG
I agree that it sounds unrehearsed and I agree that Elvis put a lot of energy and passion into this version.
Teresa Chapman - you are so right, Elvis the one and only, greatest singer of all time
King of R&B, love this track n version , very similar to 68 version , but do love the 56 version too! He wasn't modest was he! .. lol( like to hear him say that)!great dave👍🏿
This is a nice gem!
Am huge Elvis fan from London, UK and this is one of my favourite Elvis songs. Thank you for this version, like the slower pace of the song.
Cool 👍😍
Elvis was the man loved this and he was wearing one of my favourite jumpsuits I've followed him for 60yrs and I'm still in the Official Elvis Presley Fan Club of Great Britain it started in 1957and still going today in fact I've just got my Elvis monthly for October this morning 💖from Denise in England 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧💖👑👑👑😘👋XX
Great clip man, I'm a self proclaimed BIGGEST ELVIS PRESLEY FAN, HE the reason I picked up and learned to play guitar so I could play & sing his songs myself, LOVE IT MAN. TCB
THAT IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE ELVIS SONGS. OF COURSE ELVIS COULDN'T SING A BAD SONG. EVERYTHING HE DID WAS FANTASTIC. STILL THE KING.
This song always grabs me in the gut! Love it!
Awesome version! I love this song! An Elvis top 10 for me. Thanks.
He sang that live, on the '68 Singer Special...
I've listened to that concert in LA when he brags about his record sales. He lists his number of gold singles and gold albums and his record sales. It's hilarious when he says, "...more than the Beatles...Jones...all put together." You gotta listen to it.
I already did! Lol
What year was that? I don’t think I’ve heard it
Nov 1970
Elvis did a great job on this songs
Yes he did
Oh my He could
Sing anything ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
That was cool. Sounds like a good audience recording cd.
Or too bad! The audience gets a little load though and disrupts the audio.
The best ever, Elvis Presley. A great man.
Big Elvis fan here. He died when I was in basic training in the service and I actually got to see him in concert (Dallas/Ft. Worth) about a year before he passed. The song you are talking about has always been one of my favorites of his and had often wondered why he didn't sing that at more of his concerts.
If you haven't already done so for your channel, you may review / talk about the song 'What Now My Love' he sang in 1973, Live via Satellite, Aloha From Hawaii concert. In the last sentence of the song, they say he covered three octaves. A VERY difficult thing to do for any performer, much less with an untrained voice.
Elvis Presley was and is the best!!! ❤ And the only child Elvis Presley had was Lisa Marie Presley.
Elvis took very careful technique to ensure he only had one child. This according to Sheila Ryan.
@@margarettaylor8107 Really? Why?
@@margarettaylor8107 Tell us more!! I want to hear this. :popcorn:
Elvis has got a son which was hushed up. He looks, sounds & moves like Elvis. He was going to go into singing but had to go into hiding due to threats.
@@singkaraokewiththestars5051 😮 who is he?
Love this song 💕🌻. Thanks !!
The blues is as simple as 1-4-5, but Elvis gave meaning and depth to the genre like no one else could. “Trying to Get to You” is one of my consistent favorites because of the way he whips out that high note with everything he’s got, so that you can’t help but feel it. Thanks for sharing this great recording!
Elvis did the same thing with Jailhouse Rock as far as adjusting his voice and the way he hit the notes. Later on, he would kind of run through that and other songs like Hound Dog, Don't Be Cruel, etc.
Damn, that boy could HIT IT!
Yep 💯
Thanks, I’m really impressed with how intensely you ar investigating all aspects that can be found on Elvis’s life. You are a detective. Thank you.♥️🌹🇨🇦🇺🇸
My favourite! ❤🎶🎯 He can transcend regardless, because he pours his soul into the song, no matter his age!🎯
He says his father loved this song so do I
That’s right he did!
Elvis could take any song from any artist and turn into his own. The King.Nuff Said 🤴🇬🇧🙋♂️.
Lovin Elvis these days, currently watching all 31 of his movies that I ordered on a single USB, amazing how much they can fit onto one little thumb drive!
I just found your channel a few weeks ago. I am so grateful to have found it. Your knowledge of all of the FTDs is encyclopedic. It is super cool to hear the compare and contrasted song versions over the early 70s live shows. All FTD CDs all the time. I have watched a few of your “Gem” series and all of the “Best songs of [year]” videos where people can vote on their top 5. Brilliant and very interactive idea. The concert version songs and your commentary make for great listening, thinking and learning. Big thanks for what you are doing. Loved your private tour of Graceland video and the bag of stuff from the museum store videos! I bought a ton of shirts, FTDs, 2 books and a sweatshirt when I went to Graceland, too, and kept the shopping bag. Finding your channel has made quarantining a little easier in the last few weeks. I am very grateful and look forward to watching all of the live performance footage you have culled and collected. I think I am going to rewatch the Searcher after watching your review video. From a hard core fan with an interest in granular analysis of Elvis’s 70s period music, especially live concerts, I have found my new TH-cam home. Many blessings. And sincere thanks.
Wow thank you, I appreciate that. And I’m glad you like the channel so much. I love the 70s too. It intrigues me. Hope to be putting out more material that you like stay tuned!
I love that song!
Amazing Elvis Presley wonderful voice amazing singer ❤️😘👍☝️🎤🎵
I loved it!!! He's absolutely the best!!
I loved that song he was my idol
Thank you. I love that song. I’m 68 years old and I love everything Elvis sings.
That is one of my favorite songs to listen to, he just really brings it out from the gut. He just sounds really sounds like he is really wanting the person he is singing to!!
This Is 1 Of My Favorite Songs. That Elvis Did. The 1968 Comeback Special Blew Me Away. Steve Bender The Producer Of The Show. Wanted To Show Who Elvis Presley Really Was. As You Know Parker Wanted it To Be A Christmas Special. I’m Glad Steve Talked Elvis Into Doing It His Way. Both Were Great. But I Still Prefer The 68. Special. Another Favorite Was A Month After. Elvis Went To AMERICAN SOUND STUDIOS IN MEMPHIS. This Is 2 Of My Favorite. Albums. FROM ELVIS IN MEMPHIS. ELVIS BACK IN MEMPHIS. I Own Both of The Originals. To Me Pure Gold. Both. Elvis Never Sounded Better. Like To Know What are Your Thoughts On These Albums. Check Out AND THE GRASS WON’T PAY NO MIND. Neil Diamond Wrote This Song. For Elvis. Thanks. God Bless.
That’s one of my favorites from that session. Along with Inherit the Wind, Kentucky Rain, A Little Bit of Green and so on... And of course the hits.
Elvis was very much adored and Loved there was nothing but Good about everything he did Weloved Elvis then in the 50s and still an Always Love him Rip Elvis an Ben God Bless 4ever.
This Chanel is the best ever. Your the best elvis channel
Thank you for your work . You're revealing lots of great content!
I’m glad you like it!
If Elvis was saying he sold more than the Beatles or indeed anyone else I don't think he was bragging. He was stating a fact. He was always a very humble person and loved his fans. He never took them for granted. It could even be after being served with a paternity suit that he was afraid they would desert him so he needed to try and prove he was the best. He was really very humble as I said before and anyway we all know what the papers are like.
oved this song elvisistheman and always will be over a billion records sold can’t say more keep it the king ELVISISTHEMAN thank you !
I'm digging it
Lol
Hi there, thanks for this song.
It's so high pitch this song, incredible performance...
God bless you all...God bless this troubled World....🙏🌹🙏. 💐🌹.....
Greetings from Victoria. Australia..🇦🇺🌈
"I really dig it" yes you're right very close to the 68 Special version...which I prefer to the original Sun recording.
I like how he said “I really dig it.” He was very open in that show.
I happen to love this song, but let me say in tribute to his voice and style, that there have been songs I never particularly cared for---until my man sang them. And then, by putting his own spin and soul into it, I loved them. One example of many is Snowbird.
Simply the KING!!
I love Elvis I love his music
Sending love to Elvis in heaven
OMGOSH! Awesome, awesome, awesome! So passionate! I love you so much, Elvis ❤🖤💛
Thanks guy ...for the content...it's really good!!
💯
I love this song of Elvis Presley always greatest singer ever ☝️🤴👍❤️😘
to me the best version is Rapid city '77 for the cbs special.Hurt was awesome too and "you gave me a mountain' was always my favorite version from the same show on cbs special.I love the Rapid City concert.
