    People who was with Elvis said he said his leg hurt so bad and he felt horrible before the show he was dying in front of our eyes and he still gave his fans his all. From a third generation Elvis fan thank you for keeping Elvis alive. He was a gift from God gone too soon.

      There was this nurse who said that based on his appearance and all the health info out there and he seemed to have been in the active phase of heart failure. So fucking sad. Makes me want to just hug him. Brings tears to my eyes

      Love your remarks about Elvis because I feel the same way about his singing and where he takes you. Elvis loved gospel music because it was his way to praise God and give witness to Christ. Elvis was not perfect but he loved God and tried to lead others to him.

    I’ve seen Elvis eight times in concert and those were the eight greatest moments of my life. I’ve been a fan for 60 years my eyes first set upon him when I was five years old watching an Elvis movie with my dad ….my life was never again the same. I hope the last voice I hear on this earth will be his. God bless you, and thank you for sharing Elvis with the new generation.

    I have been listening to and watching Elvis for over sixty years now, and to this date, I have never seen any artist put more power. passion and every ounce of his being into a Gospel song than Elvis Aaron Presley. Many sing Gospel with power and passion,, but there is something special when Elvis sings a Gospel song, you just feel it. Elvis moved people for DECADES when he sang Gospel songs, and HE IS STILL moving people FORTY SEVEN years after he left us, AMAZING!!

    You are spot on with the rabbit hole analogy. It's no surprise Elvis was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but also the Gospel Hall of Fame, The Country Music Hall of Fame and the R&B Hall of Fame. He was a multifaceted entertainer.

My first record was Wooden Heart and Puppet on a string! I will always be an Elvis fan! And no matter what people say about him will not change my mind! I Love him as much today as i did when I first heard him!! To me the people that are suppose to have Loved him have tried to tell stories about Elvis! A lot of them are doing this to get money from Elvis and his Estate!! To me personally, there was and still is only one Elvis! He was and still is the Greatest Entertainer of all time!! His Legend and Legacy shall live on!! He was a Wonderful Man, With a Generous Heart, The Most beautiful man inside and out! All he ever wanted was to be Loved!! ❤❤❤❤❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

    At 52, I still have very vivid memories of loving Elvis from an early age. The very first time I got my own money to spend however I wanted (age 6) I got 3 things: my ears pierced, a Shirley Temple record, and an Elvis record. They were my favorite singers at that time. lol. I remember forcing my grandparents and my brother and sister to listen to those two records over and over and over. And I LOVE his music to this day. Everything I learn about him gives me new insight into the amazing, but tortured, man. How can you NOT love him?

    This is one of his last concerts, weeks before passing away. He's visibly not in the best of health. But what's amazing is that his voice never fails him.
    The power, clarity, intonation, and range are so incredible. From a rock n' roll/country singer? The smile on his face when he hits that first big note verifies that he loves this music so much.
    Your assessment is eloquent & right on target. "An American Trilogy" live at the Hawaiian concert is another breathtaking performance along with "Steamroller Blues."

    Thank you so much for defending Elvis! He had such a strong belief in God that he almost always included a gospel song in his performances! Who else would do that? Gospel was his favorite songs to sing! Elvis got so much disrespect from many people and its so unfair! They dont bash all the other artists who got addicted to drugs, but so much is made of Elvis' drug use! He had many physical and emotional issues to deal with, not to mention he was worked to death! These artists today do like 3 or so concerts in a week! Elvis did 2 or 3 shows a day in Las Vegas and then went out on tours! Who could endure that? Ty...keep going! Great reaction!

    This takes me back to when we lost him. I was 13 when Elvis died, my mam woke me up to tell me. We were both crying we loved him so much. He died less than 7 weeks after this performance. They were playing his songs on the radio non stop. This was played as one of the tributes. I live in Ireland 🇮🇪 it was night time when there was a break from normal TV to announce Elvis died. I still love Elvis to this day. Love your tee shirt. Elvis is the king. I envy you only starting off on your journey of Elvis. He didn’t sing that he prayed.

    Elvis really loved his fans & we will love him forever! When you can't explain how you feel listening to him...we know how you feel! Moving & dancing around he was splitting his trousers. Elvis studied Karate & the outfit for that gave him the idea of the onesies he would later perform in. The material had give in it so he could perform without bursting out. Elvis always wanted to give 100% to his fans & they paid their money to see him perform & he was not going to come out in jeans & a t-shirt! He grew up dirt poor & wore denim overalls & said when he had the money he would never wear denim again. Of course over the years his outfits got more bedazzling ! Elvis did all of that, not for himself, but for his fans! We know Elvis gives 100% & one fan wrote "He even sings with his face!" Elvis grew up in the Church & Gospel music was always his favorite! Singing was a God-given talent & Elvis knew that! God gave us Elvis only for a little while & there will never be another like him. He wasn't just a talented singer...Elvis Presley was a wonderful, kind, giving human being!

    If you want him to take you to church, then check out his live performance of "American Trilogy" (the "Aloha Live from Hawaii" concert that was seen by a record-breaking world-wide audience of over 1 billion, via satellite, January 1973. It's pure "church" from his first breath to the final, spectacular note. The three songs in the trilogy are "Dixie", "All My Trials" (sometimes known as "Hush Little Baby" and "The Battle Hymn of the Republic". Simply breathtaking. Mesmerizing. Don't know any better way to describe it.

    A really really great Elvis reaction. You want more gospel Elvis, try You'll Never Walk Alone studio version. Great looking tshirt, that's how it begins, small stuff and after a while you have Elvis all around your house.😊 Great that you defend Elvis amongst your friends, maybe you should invite the unbeliever to your reaction and we get 2 for 1. I think the title The King disturbs a lot of folks, it's like their favourite artists are on 2nd place. I would love to get through this rabbit hole with you.

There are tons of books but a lot of the books the people who wrote them were trying to make themselves look good by making him look bad. He was the most generous human being ever. He gave more to charity and to every day people. If you go to Graceland you will be overwhelmed at how much he gave. He bought people off the street cars. He paid for operations. Elvis won a grammy for his gospel album. He never won a grammy for being the single most important person for changing music. They spent the first part of his career trying to stop him from performing. They say the establishment got him drafted to try to stop him, but he served in the army and came back bigger than ever. The music industry would not be the music industry without Elvis. Every single person who every won an award owes Elvis for opening the doors for them. When he came out the young people went crazy and music changed forever. He stayed the same humble person based on his simple background and how his mother brought him up. Everything he did he did for his fans because he said they got him to where he was. The reason he wore the glitzy suits was because he was in Vegas and performed to sold out shows. Vegas was all about glitz and he was the King and he dressed the part. He wanted to give the fans as much as he could for coming to see him. Elvis believed in numerology. His suits reflected his numerology numbers to give his performance it's highest energy. Whether you believe that or not, he did. He was always great on the stage. The audience and his fans were all he cared about. He directs the orchestra, the singers, and each part of the orchestra. There instruction was to watch his every move in case he targeted them for a solo. Everyone on stage watched him constantly for cues. There is no BAD Elvis song. Ever. They're just different. There are some fun ones like Polk Salad Annie, or T R O U B L E. Totally different but you get something different out of all of them. That's why its impossible to pick one. You feel like your letting the rest down by choosing just one because they're all good. There is a story about Johnny Rivers. A young guy that Elvis befriended who was just one of the guys trying to be Elvis. Elvis allowed him to listen to "Memphis Tennessee". (long distance information give me Memphis Tennessee - Elvis version mentions (get in touch with my Marie (his daughter) Elvis was from Memphis. Johnny stole the song and put it out before Elvis could. 1964. Elvis recorded it after the fact but people thought it was Johnny's song and Elvis was covering it instead of Johnny stole the song from Elvis and recorded it first. Elvis only said, "I guess he needed a good song." See the generosity? Elvis was grateful he had a ton of hit songs. He never talked about it. I'm sure that story came from someone in his inner circle and they told it. Elvis wouldn't. God put him on earth for a reason. I think it was to bring people together. And boy did he. 67 years since he came out....he still is The King. The earthly King. He's a phenomenon.

    In a way I envy you getting to experience all of this for the first time. I am 81 and was in high school when Elvis hit the big time. The girls all wanted him and the boys all wanted to be him. We had never seen anything like him and it changed our generation and every generation following. And to this day, I still have never seen anything like him.

    I just texted you, but had to add another comment. That’s what happened to me at five years old. I was watching the last song in the movie jailhouse rock walked into the room, looked at the man on the screen, and when he sang this song, young and beautiful now remember, I’m five years old I don’t know he’s good looking I don’t know he’s sexy all I know is that when he opens his mouth, he reads so deeply into my soul that my life changed forever. Elvis has changed my life in ways you could not even imagine the friends i’ve made all over the world friends I have made through Elvis that have become grandfathers and uncles to my children. My son now at 35 years old went to Graceland to pay homage my little grandbaby who is five years old is in love with him I had the honor of that moment seeing him live waiting online in the street in sleeping bags in front of Madison Square Garden. With my mom at the age of 13 waiting for tickets. Remember there was no charge cards, so wait online and pay cash. In the roughest times of my life and my life has been a difficult one. He has brought me up from some of the darkest places a person can be. My life that day at five years old was the greatest blessing because it kept me alive all these years. Just had to add that God bless you and keep you safe.

    So excited you found Elvis’ true being. You remind me of Blac Elvis the reactor. He was so funny cuz he couldn’t believe he’d reached his age and never even heard “Hound Dog.” He is now probably one of Elvis’ greatest fans, though he’s not an OG like me😂. I’ve been a fan since the 50’s when Elvis first hit the scene. Thank you for your honesty and fairness. I believe Elvis music will bless you.

    I've just discovered your channel today and I just want to say thank you. I have watched you discover the magic of Elvis and it takes me back to my discovery almost 50 years ago. Thank you for doing this!

    And now that you have seen that stupendous version of How Great Thou Art, just six or seven weeks before his death, check out his 1972 Vegas version of it when he's only a few years younger, but it will also take you to church. I love both versions so much. And keep in mind he is in the gospel Hall of Fame, and his gospel albums have won a lot of awards in that direction.

    I discover Elvis Presley from the concert Aloha from Hawaï in 1973. I was 11 years old and I am in Switzerland. I am still his fan of Elvis Presley. I discover Elvis Presley spirituality in 1977....

    Thank you for charing your thoughts and defending him!💚 Totally agree with you!
    There are still people , (whose channel have 1.5 million subscribers), who give the people watching, wrong quotes and lies to prove that he was racist. That post was from 10 month ago. Everybody, who does a little bit of research, knows that he was the total opposite. And if you want to comment on their video, they say that you have to share the video with 5 people.
    I would say, his music saved my live.
    I would like to know why you thought, you would never listen to him.
    My favourite gospel is *crying in the chapel* (1960)...no..."You'll never walk alone" (1967, studio version)...no..."Peace in the valley" (1957 Ed Sullivan Show)...😅
    Love your shirt and your reaction was brilliant! Welcome in the Elvis rabbit hole 😊
    Thank you!💚

    Elvis won his first Grammy Award for How Great Thou Art for The most Sacred Performance, back in 1967. His first love in music was gospel so listen to the Album of the same name , also “ His Hand in Mine” and “ Where no one stands alone “ to find plenty of gems. Also Elvis’s Christmas Albums are still the most played at Christmas👌💕🕺

    That man was powerful. Those who can only joke about the "Fat" Elvis have no idea how great he was. The man was so, so sick here. But that VOICE! My goodness. Singers need songs, entertainers need only a stage.

    Beautiful reaction. So glad you are enjoying whst joy he brings. Elvis Gospel was his constant. If you haven't already check out the gospel medley from the 68 Comeback Special. Any song on his "Elvis Ultimate Gospel". His rendition of Amazing Grace & His Hand in Mine are lovely. Where could I go but to the Lord, He
    Touched Me,
    Lead Me- Guide Me, Reach Out To Jesus & others on this album are great. Of course, Where No One Stands Alone with Lisa Marie. I another gem is Elvis singing Oh Danny Boy. Tears are a given. 😊

    "THERE IS ONLY ONE KING ,AND HE'S IN HEAVEN". Elvis is there, too. Elvis's fame is Rock n' Roll... but, his heart was in Gospel. His 3 GRAMMY AWARDS, all for Gospel, 2 for HOW GREAT THOU ART, different renditions, different years, and 2 for HE TOUCHED ME, are a testament to that. When life starts getting the better of me, I listen to YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE, and HOW GREAT THOU ART, and I know Jesus is holding me up, saying, "Keep going. I'm right here with you.".
