I am from Memphis and when Elvis family first moved to Memphis they lived in the projects public housing so he knew what it was like too be dirt poor
only Elvis can deliver a message through a song .. KING OF ALL MUSIC..PERIOD
He is the king indeed 💖💖
Elvis was his own man. A good man who gave so much to many.....and in return he was made a victim by many around him. These men come along every once in a while. We need to pay more attention.......and listen to their words.
pity he couldn't and didn't write a song.
Not the king of ALL music silly.
He grew up in poverty but he never forgot his roots. He didn't have to do this song but he did it! Respect! Thank you sweet lady for your lovely reaction! Please do more Elvis!
Just amazing. 💖💖
Got to see him in person. When he sang this everyone cried. He was the finest entertainer the wold has been blessed with by GOD!!
You are not the first who shed tears hearing this song, and you will not be the last. "If I Can Dream" is another one you will cry to. But it's more passionate and you can hear his great power voice. It's one of the best and most passionate live performance in music history!
And he sang it only one time!
It was the closing song from the great '68 Comeback Special.
Thank you for you sensitive reaction to this meaningful song!
Thanks 💖💖
And the live version of Walk a mile in my shoes.I have to hold back the tears with all 3 of the songs.Sometimes I am successful, sometimes not.
@@stephanietip
Absolutly agree!

I wish everybody would listen to that song and then live accordingly!
Elvis is one of the most famous people in music history, & incredibly talented, but his heart & love for humanity, is his legacy 💚💜💗💚💜
Yes it is. 💖💖

This song has a very deep message! Awww don’t cry! 🥰🥰 This song relates to so many people!
It is deep sis. Man I couldn’t help it 💖💖
He was the King. Not because he ruled over us. Because he gave us something to believe in.
Fantastic reaction and message. Empathy is the right word and every child needs a loving family but also a loving community :-) Amen! Peace and love to you and your family from the UK :-)

It certainly is, tears every time. Awww, thank you!! You have a wonderful, joyous day yourself. I’m in Canada. 💗💗💗💗😇😇😇😇😇
Such a powerful perfornance from Elvis on this song his manager didn't want him to do this song but Elvis did it check out If I can dream plus there's so many other songs by Elvis he's a legend loved your reaction I know it made you cry but it also makes you think when a song like that is sung it's sad to think over 50 years later it's still relevant today thank you and stay safe 😷✌👌
I so appreciate all this detail about this Song wow. Thanks one love💖💖
Walk a mile in my shoes is also very powerful
@@stephanietip I have to agree with you it's a great song it really makes you think ☺✌
@@kathyharze4308 it really does.And that is something we could all do a little more of in this day and age.Just stop and think.
@@stephanietip So very true if only people would stop and think then one day the world would be a better place stay safe ☺😷✌👍
Elvis was born and raised extremely poor in the backwoods of Tupelo Mississippi.He grew up in a 2 room house(not 2 bedroom) literally 2 rooms.He did another that is an absolute must and I am subscribing just to see your reaction to the live version of Walk A Mile In My Shoes.Its just as powerful with a fantastic message
Thanks Stephanie I appreciate that. I will get that one done soon💖💖
Mac Davis wrote this with hopes Sammy Davis Jr would sing it, Elvis wanted to sing it even after he was told it would end his career
what a BEAUTIFUL reaction!!!
Thanks Kevin and thank you for watching my video🥰🥰
Listen to his If I can dream. It's dedicated to Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy which were murdered 2 months apart. Great men great song
Ken I have it’s so touching. Thanks for watching 💖💖
The King
We have to let this reach our hearts.
Just human reaction!
I know you always happy 😃
💖💖
Your reaction was awesome exactly the same one I had when I heard it the first time. I never look away...
Thanks Ruth 🥰🥰
Great stuff. Love you, love Elvis.
Thanks💖💖
Me too. 4 babies... This song hurts my heart soooo much. I praise God!!!!!! God bless you sister. You've a beautiful heart. K I'm in tears. Love u
Aww thanks Roxann and may be God continue to bless you as well🥰🥰
I've watched dozens of reaction videos to this song. This song is as relevant today as it was then. Most people who react to this video don't understand the message and just don't get it. You get it. You got it. Please do Walk a Mile in my Shoes, and If I Can Dream by Elvis. Throw in Bridge Over Troubled Water for good measure. They are all songs with amazing messages. Elvis wasn't much into message songs, but the ones I mentioned are the exception.
Micheal you are so right after I reacted to it I couldn’t stop crying because it’s so true. I realize a lot of ppl really don’t get the concept behind this song for real. I hope one day this change will come. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts on this with me. Love love 🥰🥰
Still relevant after 50 years
Alaska? Why is it you sound like you're from Jamaica?
Isn't it amazing how far we can travel in one lifetime?
When I was a kid most people never really left their hometown, now I hear an accent from home coming to me from Alaska! This is so cool!
Aww Deanna. Yes I’m from jamaica. Yes back in the days you would only hear about of a few ppl that travel and you would only imagine. Now we are everywhere indeed. Welcome to the island Girlz family hope you stick around. Thanks for watching one love. 💖💖
Love you :) Thanks for being a great mom!
The King of Rock 'n' Roll was also part . That's because the King's great-great-great grandmother on his mother's side, Morning White Dove, was a full-blood Cherokee .
Oh wow. Kool nice to know. Thanks for letting me know💖💖
The words though 😩😩 so much truth
I know sis I know😌 this world needs love💖💖
powerful song, loved ur reaction, tnx...
Your re so cute omg. Reminds me of a Jamaican auntie lol.
😔I KNOW, NO WORDS😔
💖
A great reaction
This song should cut any empathetic human to the bone. The number of years that have passed since this song was released, and how relevant it still is, makes it even more soul-crushing.
Yes so relevant today still. It’s so sad though. Thanks for watching 💖💖
kanaika sent MI here love it🔥❤
Ok I got you she told me 💖💖
A man does not need a gun.
👑👑👏👏
🥰🥰
its the people withe money and power that turn their heads and look the other way.
Elvis didn't see color. He was born into poverty. Despite this it has been said that throughout his life he was kind, respectful and generous. As a child growing in the 1930's and 40's there is a story of him sharing an ice-cream cone with a black child on a hot summer day. People did not do that back then. As a teen he would sneak out of his mother's church and into the neighboring black church because their music was the most beautiful he had ever heard. A black man taught him how to play the guitar. Yes, Elvis sang covers of his favorite songs which happened to be sung by black singers. Elvis didn't steal their music - he helped promote it. While planning for a huge Texas concert he was told to leave his black girls (his back up singers, The Sweet Inspirations - led by Whitney Houston's mother) at home. He said - if they don't sing I won't sing. And there are countless stories of him performing random acts of kindness to strangers of various races throughout his life. The world was extremely racist back then and Elvis helped close the gap. "If I Can Dream" should be re-released with proceeds being donated to the cause. It is a timeless song and new generations should hear his message. Please share Elvis' beautiful music. Elvis forever our King!
That’s beautiful no he didn’t 💖💖
So, this song (written by Mac Davis) was originally going to be titled "The Vicious Cycle", because that's what the lyrics are describing in the song. A child is born and raised in poverty, eventually is killed (due to the poverty), and on the very day that he is killed, another child is born in that ghetto-hence the vicious cycle. How is it broken?
This was not written by Elvis but he lived in the Ghetto of Tupelo, Mississippi growing up! He knew and I am sure saw this!
He also gave back to his part of Tupelo many times financially in many ways.
He was a very giving and humble man.
If places didn't want him to bring his girls, he didn't play there! As you can see they are all black. He demanded them to be treated equal. Going through same entrances as him even if they were technically segregated entrances. Same hotels as the rest of his staff and quality of rooms. You betcha he checked too!
Watch if I can dream by him.
Thanks Alisha has no clue. Wow that’s awesome he was an amazing man💖💖 I learn something new each day💖💖
@@IslandGirlzHaveFlow05XBS You're welcome! I love sharing who Elvis truly was.
The studio version is even better
Oh ok. Thanks for watching💖💖
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I don't have to imagine it...I never had children because I wasn't selfish, and knew I couldn't take care of them!!
And Elvis knew what a poor life was. You must have seen your mother cry for not having to feed him. He live in the ghetto too.
Wow. Thanks for sharing 💖💖
They only had one bed, so he slept in bed with his mother. They were very close, and went to bed hungry often.
Yep. I watched that 3hr Elvis documentary on HBO; quite touching. He didn't get his first pair of shoes until he was 8y old. His father spent a year in prison for writing bad checks so that they could eat. Very sad and humble beginnings, but he never forgot where he came from. There will only be one King.
I can't imagine you're saying be your brother's keeper, when you have babies you can't feed!
Beanie Man should make cover of this...
💖💖 yes that’s would be kool💖
Sad but it's true 😭 i think
you ended up DESTROYING EVERYTHING!!!!
Nowhere in the story is the Father.
I though of that when I sat and really analyze the song. So right. 💖💖
@@IslandGirlzHaveFlow05XBS Stay strong. God Bless!
Island something wrong with you noman not you this you or dad love love y’all sis blessings how my beautiful babies doing peace ❤️you make me sad if real
You or sad that what I meant sorry
I’m sorry sis. This song is just deep. 💖💖
Maybe the mother shouldn't have children she can't feed, and where's the father?
Sad
5:06 why only WHY do you ruin EVERYTHING at the last second WHY??????
