Thanks for reacting to this request this really tells the kind of person elvis was and also how he got to be the king of rock and roll...I really appreciate you taking the time to watch this ,I hope you'll continue with the rest of the video it eventually goes into all the things elvis did that helped people and the kind generous heart he really had and why his fans truly loved him😊😊😊😊😊
I do love this video. Elvis will never fade away. He is like a drug..and once you are addicted...you cant let go. I became a fan when I was 6...now I am 69...and I still love the guy . He made my life so much better just being Elvis.
On a interview Elvis ccx said from the time he was 2 years old his favorite scripture from the Bible was "What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul." Elvis knew he couldn't take it with him. He just wanted to help people and make them happy.
Dearest Twano, I am a 69 year-old white woman who has been an Elvis fan forever. I have over the years studied him as you are now. He intrigues, beguiles and humbles me for knowing that when he his bad, he is very, very bad, haha, but when he is good, he is an angel. I believe that Mr. Elvis Presley would be honored to find that you see yourself in him. Both after all, tall, slender, handsome and gifted. Thank you so much for further exposing this rare human being to the good people of our planet! As the great man once said “May God bless you as he has me!”❤️
thank you
Thank you for taking time to see who Elvis really was. This is why we love Elvis. He was so much more than an entertainer. He was a amazing person. From a third generation Elvis fan thank you for keeping Elvis alive
I'm a white woman in my mid 60s and can remember it being a special occasion to stay up past my bedtime to watch Elvis on TV, and I'd watch his movies. My mom saw him in person when she was a teenager, back when there was so much debate and pushback about whether it was proper or vulgar for him to perform in front of people with him dancing and moving his legs and hips.
What myself and many others got from him was joy and inspiration not only for his talent, but his love of "all" people and desire to spread love and goodness.
I still remember receiving the news he'd died when I was in my late teens, and the loss I felt.
After watching several of your reactions I've got a very good feeling about you, and find nothing wrong with you seeing a likeness. It has nothing to do with the color of our skin, where we're from etc. I believe he would feel honored. Thank you for being such a great example as a fellow human being.
There were some other entertainers who tragically died too young that you might want to react to after your Elvis Journey. John Lennon, Jim Croce anf John Denver.
Keep being you and you'll be just fine.
THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS❤️ Elvis inspires you to be a better human being❤️ You bring me and other Elvisfans a lot of Joy and Love❤️ Welcome to the Elvisfamily..It is filled with LOVE and FUN❤️😉
Fun fact: in 1936 a tornado leveled Tupelo. 237 lives were lost and the city was destroyed. One of the very few structures left standing was a two room shack. Elvis was an infant inside at the time. Watching from Tupelo Mississippi ❤
A great reactionTwano. I don't mind the pauses, I like hearing your views. Elvis grew up among the black community from a very young age. He always had black friends and attended both white and black churches. Gospel music was his first love.
Good to have you back, Twano and thanks for your reaction.
Elvis was born on January 8, 1935 in Tupelo, Mississippi, in a 2 room shack of a house his dad built with money he borrowed from his boss. That's how dirt poor they were. He was one half of identical twins; the other boy - Jesse Garon - was stillborn. They were so poor, that Jesse Garon was buried in a shoebox in an unmarked grave. At Graceland they have a plaque with his name on it in his memory.
Elvis always got along with the black community and learned a lot about music from his friends of color. Also, according to the one drop rule, Elvis would not be considered white, since he has Cherokee ancestors on both the Smith (his mother) and the Presley (his father) sides of the family. His paternal grandfather, Jesse Dunning Presley, was not happy that his two sons, Elvis' father Vernon and his brother Vester, married two sisters, Gladys and Clettes who were known to have Cherokee blood in their family tree. J.D. Presley was quite the racist a-hole, often drunk and a philandering husband to Minnie Mae (they were actually separated long before they finally divorced in 1954) who was always competing with his sons Vester and Vernon and who was known to abuse his kids when drunk. J.D. was publicly against race mixing and was in denial about the Cherokee blood in his own family tree. It was more publicly known that the Smith family had Native blood in their family tree, so when both his sons fell for 2 Smith sisters and Vernon, on top of that, was still a minor at 17 when he eloped with Gladys who was 4 years older than him, Jesse was totally pissed off.
As a child, Elvis already had many friends in the black community at the time his family was one of 4 "white" families that lived in the predominantly black neighborhood The Hill, just across from Shake Rag. His childhood friend Sam Bell said that some of the (black) kids in that neighborhood had lighter skin than Elvis (th-cam.com/video/LrFCyNMvZWk/w-d-xo.html). One of Elvis' bodyguards once said that he thought it was a miracle Elvis got into Humes High School in Memphis, because it was "lily white". Elvis wanted to be more open about his Native ancestry, but his manager "colonel" Tom Parker (real name Andreas van Kuijk) was against it because he was afraid it might cost Elvis fans (and himself money). They did have Elvis play characters in his movies though where he had Native American blood (Flaming Star, G.I. Blues, Stay Away Joe). Once Elvis had his own (apprentice) job learning to be an electrician, he saved up his money and bought his clothes in the same style that many of his friends of color wore. He was called a (forgive me, just stating facts here) "n-lover" and got beaten up several times too. Later, when he was an established star, he would not perform at places where the members of color of his back-up band/orchestra weren't allowed.
If you want to see a beautiful side of Elvis look for the video Elvis and the Black Community. Elvis loved everyone he met, no matter their social status, financial status, race or religion.. it just didnt matter to him. He had a heart of gold.
While ELVIS was out, fans ran after HIM,as usual, ripping HIS cloth apart, someone who was was with HIM, said *****ELVIS, they are tearing your cloth, run and hide****ELVIS replied:****So what, they put these cloth on my back,*** (meaning the fans) HE didn t run ..There are so many stories of kindness regarding this Beautiful SOUL, you would need to make at least 2 other videos..ELVIS never mentioned all the good things HE did for charity, only now we are starting to find out. and yet, we still don t know everything ...ELVIS was not only beautiful outside, HE was also beautiful inside...GOD bless HIS soul and *****LONG LIVE THE KING***.
I don't think we should get mad at you for comparing yourself to Elvis. That's a compliment. Good for you!
It doesn't upset me at all if you are like Elvis.. a generous heart is anyone or everyone.. if they chose to be that way.. Elvis choose that way.. I'm so glad you have too. We need more ppl (no matter color or age) to be the same way. My mother raised me on Elvis . I raised my children on Elvis.. My youngest son's gf was raised by her mother on Elvis... she's the baby of our family now at 22..I love this little girl.. she was raised right.
He had many many black friends growing up! He loved all people!
I’ve toured Sun Records, and it’s truly incredible to hear the earliest recordings they made. The history there is so fascinating!
Looking good Twano, just like the early Twano, I been there since you started. Glad you are back in the real. He was one of a kind, he had such poor beginnings and actually didn't have an indoor bathroom most of his childhood. He was so grateful for his success. he not only pulled his parents out of poverty but most of his relatives. When he bought Graceland, he brought in his aunts and uncles , cousins, his body guards and gave them homes on the 14 acre estate. He paid for their cars, medical care, their weddings their funerals, and lent them money on a regular basis. When he died in 1977, his payroll for all his band and relatives was over 100 people. In fact at his sickest, his aunt said you need to rest for awhile, he said, "to many people depend on me". He was a hard worker, he was a good man. Not perfect but nobody is. Thanks Twano, you rock.
thank you

Thank you for sharing this video with Elvis was so generous
We all got the same blood. No matter the color. I am white but our blood is red. Everyone's blood.
Thanks for looking into who Elvis the man was, appreciate it 💜
What a Beautiful Heart…actually way beyond that❤
If you see yourself in Elvis I am sure he would be honored
You are a real joy to watch . Elvis was amazing as he could sing any genre.😊
Elvis was a big gun collector. He had over a hundred guns. He loved to get and give guns as presents. Graceland has a gun range. Spent bullets still imbedded in the wall.
he never wore makeup in his youth just the quality of black and white film, Elvis started the makeup for the movies. He had beautiful eyes naturally.
Nice that you are Back❤
If you really like Elvis Dancing you should react to one of his best dances from one of his hit movies. The song and dance is called Bosa Nova baby from the movie "fun in Alcapolco" ✌️❤️
Elvis was special he was such a beautiful person 🙏♥️💋🌹
It’s not about your skin but your heart I seen you come along way brother I enjoy watching
thank you
Everyone brings something to the table and the day you forget that you are self absorbed
Elvis still holds the record for the top selling solo artist in history.
I love this reaction. Please watch the second half❤️
I love how you corrected yourself and said, when I'm in that position. I wish you so much luck with your pursuits. ❤️❤️✌️
Everyone loved elvis with or without gifts.
Thank you for videos
Sweetheart if you see yourself in Elvis then you must be a good man. From what I’ve seen of your videos so far you have a deep way of thinking. Keep it up and I loved when you said “ if I was in his position or once I’m in his position “ that’s right think positive and work hard you’ll get there. God bless
Beautiful
His very first recording was My Happiness it's on utube . He sang it it 1954 . It was suppose to be for his mums birthday or he just wanted to see how he sounded. The record wasn't found until the 90s at his friends house .
Elvis mentions in interviews about the music that was around him as a child & how it had an enormous influence on his career❤he grew up with black friends at a young age so absolutely that had an enormous influence on him…. he’s loved everything about the music he grew up with🩷
all black friends growing up

First, I want to thank you for your service. You deserve to hear that.
One of the first things that I noticed with you is that for being so young you have a lot of wisdom & a beautiful heart❤
Thankyou 🙏
Love your reaction .🥰
Please react to the interview Elvis childhood friend With Sam Bell , that Baz Luhrman did . Or maybe you already reacted to that ?🤔 It is really hearwarming ❤️ To see where Elvis grew up and who his friends were.
6:32 Yes bro I feel the same to😭
You need to play Elvis, the King of Kindness! Unbelievable documentary.
Hi, my good, I have told you before if you remember, I think you and Elvis have somewhat the same look!!! No shit! I believe your assessment and analysis are spot on!!! I truly enjoy it! I rate your program 10 ⭐️s
I'm sorry I know you will get your channel to even bigger place.You have a great attitude.. At this moment, though I find myself getting too frustrated with all the stopping.But good luck keep on doing what you're doing and grow your channel
Hope u come to Wellington.
there was also hillbilly music there. thats why his early sound was called rockabilly TCB
❤
it was called shak rag
I would love to see you react to Down in the Alley or If You Don’t Come Back
You should see the story of Elvis Presley best friend sam bell they grew up together..
$1 back then is about $12 today.
By the way, check out the comparison of Elvis and Micheal Jackson, in the video, "Elvis Presley and Micheal Jackson, ( I Got a Feeling in My Body)". Not saying Micheal stole anything, just saying he was inspirated by Elvis. Even married Elvis daughter Lisa for two years. Even hired the costume designer for Elvis after he died. Lots of comparisons, they were both great men and wonderful talented performers. Thanks.
Elvis lived in a black neighborhood in Tupelo. He soaked up their culture for sure.
Elvis always had a gun in his boot, even on stage. He would get death threats and told his bodyguards is anybody tried to kill him, they better get the shooter first because nobody was going to say they killed Elvis. He also had a black belt in Karate.
The presleys moved to memphis when elvis was 13
You look tired Twano. Rest and dont burnt out.
Er oui je vais à Memphis en Août depuis la France
Sweetie..the house was 2 rooms....bedroom and kitchen...no electricity, running water or bathroom...poorest of the poor
Michael Jackson got his moves from ELVIS...Check out the video "I GOT A FEELING IN MY BODY" It compares MICHAEL to ELVIS
Got to put yourself in the 40's. Cowboys were the thing and all on tv that children saw. If he had a gun it was a toy. Different times and innocent times. Thanks
This is the show you were talking about here th-cam.com/video/Wt7Akjzkc54/w-d-xo.html Its live in the 50s when he came back home to his home town in Tupelo Mississippi.
It doesn't upset anyone that you compare your generosity to that of Elvis because you're Black, if you can give away some money to others less fortunate or do a good deed each day, however small, that makes you a good person ..
He grew up within the black community
Elvis lived in a black neighborhood as a child. All his friends were the black children.
His mum was an apache which would account for his looks!
Not exactly. His maternal great grandmother was a Cherokee.
@@Carol-cm6mg It is said that his 3x great grandmother was. Not his great grandmother.
@@nycsue Thanks, I wasn't sure how far back.
hIs mom's great grandma was full Cherokee.
@@user-gz5xt1lj4t Research again, it is said that his maternal 3x great grandmother is. Not his great grandmother.
He had dark features around his eyes. The gun was not real.
I think that you meant that you are have the same kind of personality when it comes to caring about others, right??
Heard he purposely kept his concert tickets low so every fan coukd afford to see him..dont see anyone doing that these days !
true
I didn't want the first part of my comment to be negative, but kid, it was very rude of you to start dodging behind the screen & mumbling his song I have a dream, favourite song or not man, you have a video playing, by people who knew Elvis, you say you're like him but kid, you have to have the respect for people that Elvis had because he would never have done that.
There's only been a bit to watch as you're breaking it down, so there's not much to comment on at the moment (even though.all Elvis fans have already seen it)
You mention requests as other reactors do. You also say to go to PayPal & pay for a certain song to be played and reacted on and that is fair enough. There's one problem .. if I am paying you to play a song to react to, I would expect a reaction at the end, all the pausing would do my head in. I screamed at the TV watching this bit tonight to STFU.
I know you're young, I know you're trying to make some money, but you have to do it right.
Do you think a young Elvis would have got where he had by not doing things right? By talking and interrupting his record producer, he was humble, he was quiet and he became a success.
I hope you take the above as advice and observation and not negative criticism.
I will watch the next part of this you do but please keep learning to stop pausing and talking.
Keep working at it, success doesn't happen overnight.
There are a lot of reactors on youtube who have earned a lot of money .. watch how they do it, learn from them.
I have 2 sons your age, they love music and they love Elvis, they don't interrupt, they listen or watch.
You have learned to stop being giddy and continually pausing, but still pausing too much.
Take it on board as encouragement.
My sentiments exactly.
As a curiosity I decided to watch, not to see Elvis (i've seen this song + 1,00 others since 1954), but curious to see how this kid was going to behave. I've seen him 1ce or 2ce before & had to stop. Right now I watched about 4 min. & won't go any further but wanted to see some comments. My gut feeling is this is his personality & he just outright likes to talk no matter what, but apparently people don't mind so he won't change. I'm sure what you said won't cause him to reflect & change but glad you said it. I unsubscribed & no thumb up -- there's just too many others out there to enjoy watching.
He was a child in those photos. He wasn't wearing makeup at those ages 😲...They are very old photographs so the quality of the photos aren't good. That said, I still don't get how you can say he looks "evil" because of a very old and poor quality photo. I also can't understand how you can determine who he was around just by looking at those photos. I'm just very confused by some of your takes 😕
He grew up with black kids
My parents thought he was vulgar and I could not watch him on TV.
I was 7, but I picked around the cornor to watch.
Elvis git along better with blacks. white folks adults hated elvis but girls went nuts
Oh uh uh. Elvis legit “held up” a donut store with a gun in Washington DC once!!! True story. Watch Elvis meets Nixon. It really enacted it. Lol
Those pics are all retouched silly
If you shaved your mustache and darkened your eyebrows, you would look more like Elvis.
Elvis had blue eyes, however.
He looks nothing like Elvis. He looks like himself.
Sam Phillips wanted Elvis to sing "white" music of the time. didn't happen. Elvis had soul.. and Elvis didn't create the music but because he was white it was allowed to become mainstream.. Elvis opened the door for Black music to come into the forefront.
no he doesn't
Coolest man ever😊
