Cohn has said that "Walking in Memphis" is "100 percent autobiographical". He has described it as a song about "a Jewish gospel-music-lover", and added that "the song is about more than just a place; it's about a kind of spiritual awakening, one of those trips where you're different when you leave. He was inspired to write "Walking in Memphis" by a 1985 visit to the Memphis, Tennessee area. At the time, he was working as a session singer in New York City while pursuing a recording contract. In 2014, he recalled: One night while listening to all of my demos, I came to the realization that I shouldn't be signed, because I didn't have any great songs yet... I was 28 years old and not in love with my songs. James Taylor had written 'Fire and Rain' when he was 18, and Jackson Browne wrote 'These Days' when he was only 17. I thought: 'I'm already ten years older than these geniuses. It's never going to happen for me.' So it was a pretty desperate time, and I went to Memphis with that struggle at the forefront of my mind. Cohn made his first excursion to Memphis after reading an interview with James Taylor in which Taylor stated he overcame writer's block by going to a place he had never been. Emulating Taylor, Cohn chose Memphis as his destination. Cohn states that a friend told him that "there were two things in particular that I had to do [in Memphis], things that would forever change me. They later became the centerpieces of 'Walking in Memphis'." Cohn added: The first thing was go to the Full Gospel Tabernacle Church on a Sunday morning to hear the Reverend Al Green preach ... I [soon] had chills running up and down my spine. The service was so deeply moving that I found myself with sweat running down my face and tears in my eyes, totally enveloped by everything I was seeing and hearing. There was something incredibly powerful about Al Green's voice in that context. Even after three hours of continuous singing, his voice only got stronger and his band only got better. I sat there crying in the church, aware of the irony of how I used to cry in Synagogue in Cleveland as a kid - but because I wanted to get the heck out of there! Al Green's service was one of the great experiences of my life." The second piece of advice was that Cohn visit the Hollywood Café in Robinsonville, Mississippi (35 miles south of Memphis) to see Muriel Davis Wilkins, a retired schoolteacher who performed at the cafe on Friday nights. Cohn remembered: When I arrived, Muriel, who ... was in her 60s, was onstage playing a beat-up old upright piano and singing gospel standards ... I felt an immediate connection to her voice, her spirit, her face, and her smile. I was totally transfixed by her music. While many of the patrons were busy eating and not paying close attention to Muriel, I couldn't take my eyes off her. During her breaks, the two of us would talk. Muriel asked me why I was there, and I told her I was a songwriter trying to find inspiration. I also told her a little bit about my childhood - how when I was two and a half years old, my mom had passed away very unexpectedly, and about ten years later, my dad had passed away and I'd been raised by a stepmother. My mother's death was a central event in my life, and I'd been writing a lot about it over the years, both in songs and in journals. I think a part of me felt stuck in time, like I'd never quite been able to work through that loss... By midnight, the Hollywood was still packed, and Muriel asked me to join her onstage. We soon realized that there wasn't a song in the universe that both of us knew in common. A quick thinker, Muriel started feeding me lyrics to gospel songs so that I could catch up in time to sing somewhat in rhythm with her and make up my own version of the melody. Some songs I was vaguely familiar with, and some I didn't know at all. The very last song we sang together that night was 'Amazing Grace'. After we finished and people were applauding, Muriel leaned over and whispered in my ear: 'Child, you can let go now.' It was an incredibly maternal thing for her to say to me. Just like sitting in Reverend Al Green's church, I was again transformed. It was almost as if my mother was whispering in my ear. From the time I left Memphis and went back home to New York City, I knew I had a song in me about my experience there."
I walk past Graceland everyday without fail. Elvis was a friend of mine met him in 1976 won a radio show contest the prize was a day with Elvis. He was kind, handsome and very funny i will miss n love my friend forever. I live on Elvis Presley Blvd. I will die in Memphis i love the people so i will stay put.
I bought a plot 18 years ago but for the last 14 years I've been thinking about cremation and have someone throw my ashes over the walls of Graceland. Tx
I was 12 when Elvis passed, my dad woke me just said real sorry son elvis died last night. I cried so much. Listening to this I can see my dad as clear as a bell.
Hi,from Brazil... I am Brazilian I have never been to Memphis and I do not understand why I like this song so much and why it thrills me so much. Maybe for being a huge Elvisfan.
Elvis made history in the rock and roll music industry! His voice gives me chills. He was so down to earth and loved what he did and it showed. He NEVER FORGOT HIS ROOTS OR WHERE HE CAME FROM. He's a legend. ❤️❤️❤️❤️👏
You wanna here a True Elvis fan. My mother was 9 months pregnant with in 77. I came into the world as Elvis went to the After life with his mom n brother. When I here walking in Memphis I can feel a Chill like Elvis is singing in my ear. Biggest Elvis fan. Lisa is back with her father in the after life . 1-2023.
Just a small country boy from nothing made HISTORY!!! ❤️He never forgot his roots or where he came from. He had so much passion for what he did and loved his fans with all his heart. He was taken too soon, and his manager used him. Smh 🤦♀️
Messrs. Marc Cohn, Ronnie Mcdowell and Paul Simon distinctive tribute song to ELVIS is like a cannonfire and gunfire salute heard across the universe. With the other tribute artists lending sweet but roaring thunder back-ups for the greatest POPMUSIC KING the world has known!!!
The Song Walking in Memphis will give you chills. Elvis just never knew how much he was going to be missed, deeply missed. He was a legend and never knew, he had so much to live for, some people are not made to grow old I feel I can only Picture Elvis at 19-42, to have lived with wrinkles and old and just white headed would have been great but I could not see him this way. Rest my Brother Rest we shall meet again.
Anyone who gets the chance to visit Memphis ,Tennessee or Tupelo,Mississippi,, should go,, its amazing!! I loved every minute ❤, the only regret I have is I didn't stay long enough!! & I kinda wish I would have signed the wall outside of Graceland,,I just couldn't bring myself to do so,at the time,,everyone else did tho,,😢
@@spana123321 You DO realize him, his parents & Grandma all lived in a one bedroom goverment housing. He worked for $1.25 an hour. He played the guitar from 6-12 outside a laundromat for change to help his momma but groceries. They were so poor his twin was malnourished and died. He was buried in a shoe box.
Nice song that dedicated to the king Elvis....I only wish that he did stopped take a good look at himself and say, no, no, this can't be me... shape back up and take care of his health and maybe he would've still been with us... who knows.
A story of Elvis written in song! I ve been to Graceland several times. Each time I have gone, I feel an odd feeling of Elvis's presence. It also brings back the memories of when I was a kid and played his records all the time. What a great loss to the generation of today. Todays youth has never seen a great talent such as Elvis. Elvis WAS an ICON.
I'm planning a trip to Memphis and Graceland and cannot leave out Beal street of course. Planning the trip a few months from now and I cannot wait to walk through those famous gates and then into the home of The King of Rock n Roll. And to think he thought no one would remember him . Elvis, no one will EVER forget you. Watched Elvis the movie back in July and let me just say what an awesome movie that was. One of the best 2 1/2 hours I have had in awhile. Then got to watch it again and again at home. But to know soon enough I will be walking into the home of Elvis Aaron Presley and possibly feel his spirit in that place he loved, felt safe and where sadly he died but people have described feeling his spirit in there still in his home. Makes sense to me.
miss Elvis and the good times did not realize I grew up in heaven the south was fun back then simple life care free sturdy adults running things a poor guy could still buy a few things he needed and have a girlfriend a car and a place to sleep...
dedicated to the great Elvis. Elvis is the Sexiest Man that ever set foot on this planet! Long live the King!! Always has and will be the one and only King 👌
Long live the best forever miss u elvis rest easy king 43 years gone and still the king of music forever and ever rest up there keep sinning them great songs u were great
Hopefully, this won't come up under my daughter's account, as it does for some reason. If it does, this is her dad, Fred, posting this. I always enjoy hearing this song, and Mark's timeless hit. For us 'baby boomers' it--as John Lennon said--all started with Elvis. He was, and will always be the 'king of rock.' Jackson may be the 'king of pop' but there is only one rock 'king' and that is Elvis. I have three regrets, I never saw Buddy Holly 'live,' never say Bobby Darin 'live; but did see Elvis 'live' six times: three at the Vegas Hilton, one in Charlotte, once in Atlanta at the Georgia Dome where I came within 20 feet of the man, but never got to shake his had, and once in Nashville at the old Municipal Auditorium. I've met and worked with over 75 members of the Rock and Roll, Country Music, Gospel Music and Songwriters Halls of Fame. I have been truly blessed. Elvis may not have been the 'greatest' entertainer. that's a person choice, and I can't speak for those of you who think he's the greatest. For me, it's hard to beat Al Jolson, Judy Garland, and Sinatra. Aretha is right up there with the others. It's a pretty exclusive 'club.' But Elvis basically gave us rock and roll for all intent and purpose. He inspired me to get into the music industry where I have enjoyed a great life for 62 years. I've been blessed to have met my hero's so what more could you ask for.
I never get tired listerning to Elvis I play his songs over and over again and his shows on video love them .He was something special there will never be anyone like him again on this planet .He bought me happiness some thing to look forward to in life love him always I will never in my life forget him he will always be the King of music xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
@Andrew Pinney oh yes it is, as a woman who got to walk in Memphis, where elvis lived , loved., and walked. It's heartfelt and a fine tribute, for anyone who hopes to walk in Memphis. Dd
Great song walking in Memphis a tribute for the legend Eternals of rock and roll music worldwide Elvis Presley, sung by a good artist Marc Cohn. Military salute from me, I am a soldier in the Canadian Armed Forces in the infantry division in the reserves at the Royal Montreal Regiment (R.M.R.) based in Montréal, Québec, Canada!!!
elvis died when i was 12 years old. at that time i thought he had a good voice, and that was it. it was'nt until i went to memphis and beal street in 2014 that i got it..that 12 year old boy is now a 52 year old man and i still get it..everyone once in there life experiences a singular moment that when looked back on makes one realize just how specail that moment really was.. my moment was beal street. it was worth the wait!!!!
and the amazing thing is tammy, that you can still appreciate what he did ... it's people like you that will carry on just how great he was, and what he did for music!!!!!!!!
I'm not an Elvis fan, never have been. But I was lucky enough to spend a weekend in Memphis and walk down Beale. It's not just the birth place of Elvis, but also the home to Rythmn & Blues, Sun Records, Stax Records, so much more than "just" Graceland and Elvis. I can't wait to go back!
Antoinette Giacci ......someone once called him prince from another planet..think that sums him up perfectly...beautiful man..not of this world for sure🧡
So sad, Elvis was out of touch in so many areas. Elvis had so much more potential but he never truly seen it. They should of filmed every song Elvis song, there you would see his true greatness. Elvis was a singer and entertaniner but we all seen very little of him live singing all his songs, it is truly sad on stage and his recordings we missed hundreds of them live.
Hi Doris, i truly hope you get to memphis. there is a air about being there and realizing how specail it is. the people, the mood, the physicalities. you leave being forever changed...
There are and have been people who suffered horribly for our southern heritage, and all it would have taken is for people like Elvis and many others to say "it ain't right" to make things much better. Sorry for bringing it up.

I live in Memphis on Elvis Presley Blvd. i love it my little piece of heaven
Elvis coming from abject poverty to be the biggest singing star ever is by any measure quite Incredible .
I've been to his childhood home in Tupelo, MS, where he and parents lived until he was 12...very humble beginnings, indeed. God bless the King 😎
He became a truck driver before he became a singer so how was he in “Abject Poverty”? That’s the poverty that only the rich and famous can have.
Niall Hogan wasn’t in the desert starving or thirsty

There has not been anything in music like the young Elvis Presley! The King of rock and roll.
They thought drafting him would end his career , but it only made him even more popular when he returned.
he did not schun {spelling} his obligation to serve and he did. SEMPER-PHI
This song will never get old. Neither will Elvis. Long live the King.

Walking around in Memphis must be a very special thing for music lover. I want to go there. Cohen's version is one of the very best.

and the amazing thing is tammy, that you can still appreciate what he did ... it's people like you that will carry on just how great he was, and what he did for music!!!!!!!!
I'm not an Elvis fan, never have been. But I was lucky enough to spend a weekend in Memphis and walk down Beale. It's not just the birth place of Elvis, but also the home to Rythmn & Blues, Sun Records, Stax Records, so much more than "just" Graceland and Elvis. I can't wait to go back!
Robert Anderson I got it at Beale street blues in 77 or 78. I was 7.
He didnt died like they say us
Stupendo video dell’uomo dalle mille risorse . Evviva ELVIS il RE ❤️👑🎤😢🎸

So sad, Elvis was out of touch in so many areas. Elvis had so much more potential but he never truly seen it. They should of filmed every song Elvis song, there you would see his true greatness. Elvis was a singer and entertaniner but we all seen very little of him live singing all his songs, it is truly sad on stage and his recordings we missed hundreds of them live.
I never get tired of this song!
Fantastic !!!
Great great great!!! 🎵💘🎁
Blues and Gospel are the Roots of Popmusic.!!! Great Song Mark Cohn.!!
+Gerrit Veldhuisen Yes, and Elvis said Blues, Gospel, and Country are the roots of Rock 'N Roll.

His bodyguard said he was a man who had everything in the palm of his hand and let drugs take it all away How Sad 😢

So beautiful song!!!
The ghost of Elvis still walks around Memphis. Elvis was Memphis and Memphis was Elvis. He just went to Hollywood and other places to work.
Beautiful song you will always be loved never forgotten Elvis xxxx
Always has and will be the one and only King 👌
There are and have been people who suffered horribly for our southern heritage, and all it would have taken is for people like Elvis and many others to say "it ain't right" to make things much better. Sorry for bringing it up.
Fantastic !!!
