Once when Elvis was warned that he shouldn't go into the audience because "they might rip your clothes off", Elvis replied that it was okay because "they" (his fans) had paid for his clothes. He always wanted to his fans to know that he loved and appreicated them because he never forgot that without his fans, he was essentially just a guy who could sing.
He was also always in money trouble because he liked giving people things so much. Any time he was questioned about it, he'd say he could just go do more shows if he needed some money.
Too funny!! His charisma, looks and confidence were extremely magnetic! But he was also very humble, respectful and grateful for his fans. The man "had it" can't be denied. 😄🔥🔥🎙🎼💯
He did this routinely during his residency at the International Hotel in 1970 and 71, always when singing Love Me Tender. I was there for 10 shows with my sisters; we were all in our early 20's. We paid Emelio a tip every show and got to sit in front right by the stage. We all got kisses at every show, he talked to us, used our handkerchiefs to wipe his face and was so handsome and fantastic in person. He smelled delicious (wearing Brút at that time) and was so kind to his fans. He loved us and we all loved him right back. The best memories I have of being 21.❤❤❤
I saw him at The International, too. My parents went to Vegas for a weekend getaway in August 1970 and let me and my brother go to the show. It was great.
Once in an interview he was asked if it bothered him when fans swarmed his car as he entered a stadium, ripping off wipers etc . His response " Naw they paid for it " . Too many performers today would scream outrage . It's been said he would visit with the fans at the gates of Graceland on almost a daily basis . He truly loved his fans as much as they loved him .
Elvis was the FIRST and BEST! ...No singer was and is as famous as Elvis and has been for almost 70 years!! He has everything a singer needs: GOOD LOOKS, HUMOR, SEXY, a killer VOICE... and above all an incredible CHARISMA!! ... He is still unsurpassed today and a singer for eternity!! ✨💎✨🕺🏻🕯 Thank
SO HANDSOME, SO Charismatic, SO Talented: there will NEVER be another like ELVIS!! STILL miss him: to THIS DAY! GLAD to see you-guys reacting to him!! HUGS!!
Great reaction. One of the ladies in this video is from the UK. She told her story a few years ago to an Elvis channel. The guy chatted to her telephonically... she said her husband was with her that night and he had no problems with her walking up to Elvis to get her kiss (6.17). Her husband is also a huge Elvis fan and understood this special moment his wife experienced! In general I would say the men felt that way because Martin Sheen, the actor said "Elvis was the 1st singer back in the 50's who was liked by both boys and girls and they loved his songs."
...an added dimension to all this: everyone who met or spent time with Elvis...just about EVERYONE said he was so much more attractive in person than he was in the movies, or, on stage.....so he may have been even MORE irresistible to the ladies in an 'up close and personal way'.
Elvis on velvet pictures was in nearly every household I visited as a child. Grown women were completely loyal and in love with him. My husband and I visited Graceland a few years back. What hit me the second I walked in was an overwhelming feeling of being at home. It's a beautiful house but feels like a home. It felt like a happy home.
😅😂❤Yes, this happened..😊It must seem very strange to people, in fact I’m sure it is strange to people now, that he would do this. But as someone who had the pleasure of being here for the Elvis era, I can tell you that it didn’t seem strange to us at all-at that time. Lol. He was SUCH an amazing entertainer, and his phenomenal voice will never be replicated. There were so many dimensions to him and he was such a pleasure to listen to and watch. His concerts were amazing. He certainly loved his fans and to this day they still come from all over the world to pay homage to him at Graceland. His catalogue includes R&B, Pop, R&R, Gospel, Folk…..there just wasn’t anything that he didn’t do well IMO. There will never be another. But sadly, he never had a full, peaceful life. 😢❤
Elvis treated people well. That's amazing considering he was such a superstar. At this point he'd already built a huge reputation as a heartthrob through the 1950s and 60s. To really understand why he was so popular you have to see him in the context of the 1950s, when his legend started. o
pure love from the most generous artist in the world he gave his love his money everything to people it was like a medicine for him to give .only elvis could do that
Elvis always interacted with the crowd at live performances in some way, even if it was just a smile a wave or a comment. That's one of the reasons his fan base is so strong even today. I've even seen it from young reactors that weren't born while he was alive, some actually swoon over his voice, looks and the swag.
Yes, Elvis was very personable and interacted with his audience always. He was loyal to his fans, and as you can see, his fans are very loyal to him. How many Rockstars do you know where their fans show up at their doorstep every anniversary of his or her death. Thousands each year to Graceland. Love your reaction!❤
Very true. 46 yrs after his death, and plenty fans still attend his birthday celebration every year and the vigil of his passing. He certainly left a memorable and lasting impression on us fans. ❤⚡🥇👍🇿🇦
- - - Insightful point you both made. Unlike those who don't know music history, Elvis was not stuck in any one genre, not by a lightyear! He is the most successful artist who fluidly morphed into any genre he wished: Country, Pop Ballads, Adult Contemporary, R&B, Appalachin/Bluegrass, Gospel, Traditional European Hymns, Rock, and even some German & Italian music.
When you saw Elvis in person, you spent a lot of the time feeling as if you were hanging out with a talented, funny friend. And, the rest of the time in awe of him. He was gorgeous. He glowed. 👑 🎸
His voice was amazing - recorded and live - no need for advanced technological engineering! He was born for this... It's just so sad that he had problems with substance abuse. My favorite of his: Return to Sender.
He had nine documented medical conditions for which he only took only prescription meds.Without the meds, his medical conditions could not be maintained.One condition, sleep disorder, he had as a child.Without sleep, we die.Once he went three days without sleep because he had not taken his sleep .meds.Now, we have less addictive sleep meds...not then.He had dead nerves in his colon caused by a virus as a child.Colon issues were a problem since then.His colon issue led to valsavar maneuver which led to a heart attack, Yes, it is too bad that he suffered with so many medical issues.He was destined to die young.
@@margarettaylor8107 Sounds like you read the excellent book Sally Hoedel wrote. DestinedTo Die Young. It's the number one book to read for anyone seriously interested in truly understanding the magnificent Elvis.
Watching Elvis in concert is great, but nothing like being there in person. When I was in college, Elvis came to Murfreesboro, TN for a concert and I took my mother, 2 of my aunts and my cousin to see him. Absolutely mesmerizing concert. I lost count of how many scarfs that he gave out to the ladies. There will never be another Elvis. By the way, I just love his movies. They're just so fun. Blue Hawaii has to be my favorite.
The only time Elvis jumped down off stage. The band was freaking out that Elvis would be mobbed and Elvis was so glad to be on stage. He took his hand to his forehead with a whew....like I survived. The only time Elvis jumped down off stage. The band was freaking out that Elvis would be mobbed and Elvis was so glad to be on stage. He took his hand to his forehead with a whew....like I survived. And him walking around with the fans, they were shocked. Thats how he got away with it without being ripped apart.
I haven't read all the comments here yet, but on some other reactions to this, in the comments, there are actually some ladies that say that they got a kiss from Elvis, and just the other day I read an account a woman who said she had gotten 10 kisses from Elvis in her lifetime, and that it is basically a heavenly memory. He was so funny. Just right off the cuff. Like did you see the exaggerated way that he was patting all the perspiration from his face and brow with that woman's handkerchief or whatever it was before he gave it back to her? That's hilarious! But it's so simple and fun-loving!
Timeless piece of history never to be replicated. Only the king. Man did he love his fans. And we still love him 50 years later. Long live the “KiNG”!!!!!
As an artist of his level he certainly did not need to do that. I think he recognized he was giving those fans memories of a lifetime. He really cared for his fans, Elvis was known for that. He reamined gracious to the end and wanted to show gratitide to the fans, give them something more.
You should watch his live performances from the 1950's. Women were hysterical & passing out. On the Ed Sullivan Show he was singing Hound Dog. The women were so loud that you couldn't hear the backup singers & they had a microphone.
I love how he goes to a table and greets the man with “how are you doin’ Sir?” And then proceeds to kiss every woman at the table - probably that man’s wife or whatever…😂😂 He was in the army from 58-60.
In general, the audiences at Elvis' Las Vegas concerts were more "polite" and restrained compared to those at many other venues he played around the country during the '70s.
I do regret that it took away from how great the song is as you barely see him actually perform it but from an entertainment perspective this is absolutely amazing. And that's the thing with elvis. He could give you some of the greatest musical moments in music where he is just focused on the music and he could give you memorable entertainment as well
Elvis respected his fans and he knew they loved and respected him so there was a bond that allowed him the confidence to do something like this that we can’t even imagine a star doing today.
Have always loved this video. It makes you laugh, smile and wish you were there to witness or be the one to be kissed by the greatest singer & entertainer ever. Elvis loved his fans & many times commented that he wouldn't be where he was without his fans 💕
Elvis was my first puppy love when I was seven begged my mother for his records which I still have there will never be another entertainer in my opinion like Elvis. You should watch the echo will never die and you will learn a lot about him
Elvis loved his fans and his fans loved him. If he could have got to the people in the balcony he would have kissed them also Elvis Presley loved playing Elvis. R.I.P. E.P. Lisa Marie, Jesse Presley Vernon Presley, and Gladys Presley, Benjamin keough.✌️❤️🙏🙏🙏
Love your reaction video. Just discovered your channel. Thx for making your videos. You may have or may NOT have noticed "the Necklace" Elvis was holding was given to him from a loving fan. That's what I love about the 70s, everyone was COOL & LOVING towards one another. That's what I love so much about the past. Most people were really awesome people 😎💯 Loved both your reactions to Elvis kissing all the ladies. 💘 He LOVED his fans. He didn't mind fans ripping off his clothes be he said "they put it there" lol. True story. Have you seen ELVIS' life story/Biography?? Highly recommend that you make a reaction video of his entire life story bc that's where my Love for him began. When you discover his humble beginnings then you'll understand Elvis Presley. He earned the title being the KING of Rock and roll. He broke open a new society. He broke the ice.🎉 It took ELVIS' determination to "free the world" through fusing more than one genre of music together. Elvis was electrical and out of this world bc no one did that to music. Elvis is the "Big Bang" in music history. 🎉 He's to be celebrated ❤️💯 Take care you guys 💕 Loved your reactions. Thx I have some video reaction suggestions pls and thx (Classic) Jailhouse Rock Elvis on the Milton Berle show Hound Dog Reconsider baby extended Sax version Viva Las Vegas I got a woman Money Honey I got stung Good Rockin' tonight Pol Salad Annie Solitaire My boy There so many more but can't think of any and the list is getting long. Be sure to react to his biography and make a reaction video on Elvis in 1956 bc that was his BIGGEST YEAR ❤️💙😎💯
I don't smile very often during reaction videos but I did with this one. Always loved Elvis. What a great voice and so much charisma. I doubt any other performer in history did this during a concert. I was just 14 when I heard in August 1977 that he died at age 42. I knew his music only a bit then but I still recall that his death shocked and actually hurt me. That is the power of his persona.
What's hilarious is that those were very rich people and vegas was this very posh fancy place where you watched the show with manners and sophistication and they are all in their mid 30s here for the most part and all of a sudden they became uncontrollable 15 years old again 😂
"Love Me Tender" was from his first film of the same name released in 1956. "Can't Help Falling In Love" and "Hawaiian Wedding Song" are two beautiful songs from his film "Blue Hawaii". Can't remember a time when I wasn't a huge fan of Elvis. I was already in love with him when he did the 1968 "Comeback" Special at the age of 8.😁 Really love watching you react to the music I grew up with.
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❤️😉
"King Creole" (1958, black and white) is a movie you need to catch someday. Elvis made about 31 feature films, and he stated that he was most proud of his acting performance as Danny Fisher in "King Creole". Anecdote: I knew a guy who said that he was in the army and in a chow line in the late 1950's (Germany, maybe), and he looked up and Elvis was behind the food serving it up to the soldiers.
I was given my first Elvis 45 rpm record in 1962 when I was 6 years old... A couple of years later I had the" Meet the Beatles " album... I became musically aware pretty early on in my life and I still enjoy music so much everyday... When the British invasion and Motown came into existence I was so thrilled... Elvis music has always been my 1st love and my "go to" music... Great reaction, guys...and as always...Keep Being Awesome !!!...
God bless ya, folks. Dont mind the hecklers. Elvis himself had a great sense of humor. He realized he was captured in this parody of himself and he laughed at it too sometimes. His fans are like a religion. My Brothers mother in law met him several times and has letters and scarves from him on her walls. Her and Milt loved him like a son. She would literally kill us if we dared say anything bad bout him
HI GUYS GREETINGS FROM ENGLAND 🇬🇧 ELVIS WAS THE KING AND ULTIMATE LIVE SINGER AND YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT ELVIS SINGING " STEAMROLLER BLUES" ITS ELVIS AT HIS BEST.
Elvis did anything he wanted and if kissing was it, he made a spectacle of it. Nowadays people would think of cold sores and such but those women took their chances 🥰🥰
I mean, I line up in front of my TV every time I watch this.....lol. Dayum, but I wish I was there for my very special kiss from EP. Love him so much ❤️⚡💯
Thank you both for all your lovely Elvis reactions. I like it a lot. The fans loved Elvis and Elvis loved his fans.They made him big. That´s something Elvis never forget, so he gave it back in grateful attention to kiss his female fans and shake the hands of his male fans. We will love E1vis for eternity. Would you please react to Elvis song PATCH IT UP, live 1970: th-cam.com/video/_ajFEGza4M4/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared. It's awesome!
Loved your reaction ! Lol when you said how he walked back on stage like yea I just did that ! It was a different time then ! Covid doesn't allow that anymore ! Love your Elvis reactions !❤😊
This is half the reason you went to an Elvis concert-to get a kiss, or a scarf. He was southern-we regularly kissed to greet people in the south-it was called a peck!
I had never believed it when my professor in college, both a musicologist and professional symphony musician, himself, told me that he viewed Elvis Presley to be the greatest overall singer of all time. "Why?," "What the hell?," so many of us said? With him first going on to ask what's Frank Sinatra's greatest and/or signature song? "My Way," someone eventually said and then the professor proceeded to show us various polls from over the years which listed Sinatra as the greatest singer ever. Ray Charles and Aretha Franklin were also on top of some, and Elvis, too, on a few. But the point of the exercise was to simply show us Sinatra was considered by many, though it's subjective, to be the greatest. The class then listened to Sinatra's "My Way," and then Elvis' version, back to back. With the room being roughly split as to whose version was better, "which proved what I thought?" But then the professor showed us Elvis rocking out to 'Trying to Get to You' from the Elvis 1968 Comeback Special. With the point ultimately being that regardless of whose version of 'My Way" you preferred, Elvis was right there, totally at home playing in Sinatra's backyard for lack of better parlance. But as to Sinatra playing in Elvis' backyard, he said, it couldn't be done, as he said "[i]magine Sinatra, (who he totally loved) trying to do that rock number?" Then going on to say that he had found no singer who had ever sang more genres, more majestically, than Elvis, & he challenged us to find out for ourselves by looking at his full catalogue of Rock, Pop, Soul, Country, Ballads, Gospel and more. And, when done, I admit I became a convert who was so, so doubtful, at first, I can't even begin to tell you. But from rocking out to 'Trying to Get to You' from that Elvis 1968 Comeback Special, to singing about the dream of humanity coming together with "If I Can Dream," from the same show, I believe you will see what I mean. Elvis even had a voice that could be operatic if you go and listen to 'Hurt' and his version of "You'll Never Walk Alone" will tell you why he has also sold more gospel records than anyone, as well as just tons more, overall. But, with pop and 'Such A Night' to a ballad such as 'They Remind Me Too Much of You,' he did it all, and so, so damn well. While for soul, check out 'Long Black Limousine' or 'You're Wearin' That Loved on Look' which is a bit of another number. Becausde as Elvis' one album cover says, there's 'Something for Everybody.' Also, and if ultimately you don't think Elvis is the best, that's totally cool as there really is something for everyone!;-) Great channel and I wish you the best!!! ~ Christopher Tyler P.S. Those recommendations are only, quite literally, the beginning!
I love this story. Thanks for posting it and I totally agree with your teacher. Pavarotti even said that Elvis could sing like him, but he couldn't sing like Elvis. He said Elvis could he been one of the best opera singers with a little training. ❤❤❤
@@jennyjorgensen9935 Thank you, Jenny, and you're quite correct as the 'Three Tenors' loved Elvis! As Placido Domingo had also said if there was any one voice he could have in the whole world it would have been that of Elvis. Have a great night!
Love your reactions. For all his lovers that have written books and kiss and tell have all had one thing in common that Elvis was the Master at making out sometimes for hours where they had kiss burns around their mouths. Also it was said by his Memphis Mafia ( buddies of his that worked for him and went everywhere with him) that Elvis had a field day in Germany and Paris while in the service when it came to women 😅 I mean, he loved women and we sure as hell love him back!!
Great reaction guys to a fun video, so carry on enjoying and smiling, as we need more of it these days. I have seen many many great Elvis video song performances, but this is possibly the most memorable in its own way.
It is funny for me to watch people’s reaction to this video. I saw Elvis twice in concert in the 70s. This was part of the show. He always kissed the girls. No one even thought of germs. It was a badge of honor for a man if his girlfriend/ wife was kissed by Elvis. 🤣🤣
Elvis' father was in the audience this night and if you know just when to look you catch a very quick glimpse of him smiling at Elvis as he walks behind his booth - I picture his father thinking "thats my boy" LOL
His "guys" were scared to death for Elvis; you can see them walking around him trying to make sure he doesn't get trampled. Elvis RARELY went into the crowd(only this time,while in Vegas) You can see why they were concerned 😅
Different times and mindset. Also in 1970 there were definitely less overweight people. I was in high school in 1970 there was maybe one fat kid in a class. Elvis was not your average star...he was the first real super star. Thanks for reaction great fun ❤
The trivia question for this song should have been "when was this song written?". The answer is that it was written during the American Civil War. The song was originally called "Aura Lee" and was about a girl named Aura Lee who had golden hair and whenever she was around, swallows filled the air. Of course new lyrics and name were written for it and it became "Love Me Tender".
Once when Elvis was warned that he shouldn't go into the audience because "they might rip your clothes off", Elvis replied that it was okay because "they" (his fans) had paid for his clothes. He always wanted to his fans to know that he loved and appreicated them because he never forgot that without his fans, he was essentially just a guy who could sing.
He was also always in money trouble because he liked giving people things so much. Any time he was questioned about it, he'd say he could just go do more shows if he needed some money.
They also scratched his car ,tore his clothes and Vernon was anxious,Elvis told him that same thing.

1970 hatte er keine Geldprobleme.
Aber Morddrohungen.
Danach ist Elvis nie wieder ins Publikum.
Was du erzählst,ist eine Lüge

Every girl wanted him , every man wanted to be him!!
I never watch this without laughing out loud🤣🤣🤣 all the guys are like "please don't steal my girl tonight"! 🤣🤣🤣
This is why 46 years after his death Elvis is still the KING
"hang loose, I'll be there in a minute" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
"The King" will always be the greatest frontman in music history!
Agree and many followed but nowhere near Elvis’s charisma and voice!
The only one handsome in this world until no can replace Elvis as a handsome singer today.
Too funny!! His charisma, looks and confidence were extremely magnetic! But he was also very humble, respectful and grateful for his fans. The man "had it" can't be denied. 😄🔥🔥🎙🎼💯

He did not go around like this amongst the crowd routinely. 2 or 3 times in total.

You should watch his live performances from the 1950's. Women were hysterical & passing out. On the Ed Sullivan Show he was singing Hound Dog. The women were so loud that you couldn't hear the backup singers & they had a microphone.
I love how he goes to a table and greets the man with “how are you doin’ Sir?” And then proceeds to kiss every woman at the table - probably that man’s wife or whatever…😂😂
He was in the army from 58-60.
In general, the audiences at Elvis' Las Vegas concerts were more "polite" and restrained compared to those at many other venues he played around the country during the '70s.
I saw Elvis perform Live at Notre Dame the year before he died…I was 8, but he was unforgettable…a master showman.
I do regret that it took away from how great the song is as you barely see him actually perform it but from an entertainment perspective this is absolutely amazing. And that's the thing with elvis. He could give you some of the greatest musical moments in music where he is just focused on the music and he could give you memorable entertainment as well
Elvis respected his fans and he knew they loved and respected him so there was a bond that allowed him the confidence to do something like this that we can’t even imagine a star doing today.
Have always loved this video. It makes you laugh, smile and wish you were there to witness or be the one to be kissed by the greatest singer & entertainer ever. Elvis loved his fans & many times commented that he wouldn't be where he was without his fans 💕
Elvis was my first puppy love when I was seven begged my mother for his records which I still have there will never be another entertainer in my opinion like Elvis. You should watch the echo will never die and you will learn a lot about him
The King!
Elvis fulfilling dreams!
Elvis loved his fans and his fans loved him. If he could have got to the people in the balcony he would have kissed them also Elvis Presley loved playing Elvis. R.I.P. E.P. Lisa Marie, Jesse Presley Vernon Presley, and Gladys Presley, Benjamin keough.✌️❤️🙏🙏🙏
Love your reaction video. Just discovered your channel. Thx for making your videos.
You may have or may NOT have noticed "the Necklace" Elvis was holding was given to him from a loving fan.
That's what I love about the 70s, everyone was COOL & LOVING towards one another. That's what I love so much about the past. Most people were really awesome people 😎💯
Loved both your reactions to Elvis kissing all the ladies. 💘 He LOVED his fans. He didn't mind fans ripping off his clothes be he said "they put it there" lol. True story.
Have you seen ELVIS' life story/Biography??
Highly recommend that you make a reaction video of his entire life story bc that's where my Love for him began.
When you discover his humble beginnings then you'll understand Elvis Presley. He earned the title being the KING of Rock and roll. He broke open a new society. He broke the ice.🎉 It took ELVIS' determination to "free the world" through fusing more than one genre of music together. Elvis was electrical and out of this world bc no one did that to music. Elvis is the "Big Bang" in music history. 🎉 He's to be celebrated ❤️💯
Take care you guys 💕
Loved your reactions. Thx
I have some video reaction suggestions pls and thx

There so many more but can't think of any and the list is getting long. Be sure to react to his biography and make a reaction video on Elvis in 1956 bc that was his BIGGEST YEAR ❤️💙😎💯
I don't smile very often during reaction videos but I did with this one. Always loved Elvis. What a great voice and so much charisma. I doubt any other performer in history did this during a concert. I was just 14 when I heard in August 1977 that he died at age 42. I knew his music only a bit then but I still recall that his death shocked and actually hurt me. That is the power of his persona.
only Elvis can pull this off
Never be another.
What's hilarious is that those were very rich people and vegas was this very posh fancy place where you watched the show with manners and sophistication and they are all in their mid 30s here for the most part and all of a sudden they became uncontrollable 15 years old again 😂
Whenever Elvis would speak to a new employee he would tell them: "ALWAYS be nice to the fans man, those cats put me on this hill!"
"Love Me Tender" was from his first film of the same name released in 1956. "Can't Help Falling In Love" and "Hawaiian Wedding Song" are two beautiful songs from his film "Blue Hawaii". Can't remember a time when I wasn't a huge fan of Elvis. I was already in love with him when he did the 1968 "Comeback" Special at the age of 8.😁 Really love watching you react to the music I grew up with.
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❤️😉
Ultimate SWAGGER 😂❤💋
"King Creole" (1958, black and white) is a movie you need to catch someday. Elvis made about 31 feature films, and he stated that he was most proud of his acting performance as Danny Fisher in "King Creole". Anecdote: I knew a guy who said that he was in the army and in a chow line in the late 1950's (Germany, maybe), and he looked up and Elvis was behind the food serving it up to the soldiers.
I was laughing with you good reaction. ❤
Wild!
Yes, a very Genuine man. He was a wonderful human being. Everyone needs to learn from him.
Imagine an artist doing that now lol. Never! Such an awesome video. Great reaction ❤
1958, the same year his dear mother, Gladys died. Elvis was never the same again.
In a later concert, he told the audience he wouldn't come back out there for love or money 😅 all women were given a pass to kiss ELVIS ❤
Us fans loved elvis,I seen Elvis live twice,but I was way in the back darn it.
ladies and gentlemen Elvis has left the building. usually said over the pa system.
Good morning I'm a HUGE Elvis fan my mom has pictures of me in my diapers dancing to Elvis that my dad was jamming lol
u guys should look up the interview he did right after he got out of the service. its very insightful to him
La primera vez que vi ésta actuación quedé así 😮😮😮😮😮 despierta así 🫦🔥🫦🔥🫦🔥🫦🫦 amazing Elvis the most beautiful and sexy man the universe.
He was the best....men wanted to be him and women all wanted him🤣👍 original cool here....
I was given my first Elvis 45 rpm record in 1962 when I was 6 years old... A couple of years later I had the" Meet the Beatles " album... I became musically aware pretty early on in my life and I still enjoy music so much everyday... When the British invasion and Motown came into existence I was so thrilled... Elvis music has always been my 1st love and my "go to" music... Great reaction, guys...and as always...Keep Being Awesome !!!...
Elvis kissed Them All❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
If u want more of this stuff with the audience interaction fever from the Aloha From Hawaii show is the way to go.
God bless ya, folks. Dont mind the hecklers. Elvis himself had a great sense of humor. He realized he was captured in this parody of himself and he laughed at it too sometimes. His fans are like a religion. My Brothers mother in law met him several times and has letters and scarves from him on her walls. Her and Milt loved him like a son. She would literally kill us if we dared say anything bad bout him
ELVIS É ÚNICO❤
Great Reaction ! I love you guys. You definitely crack me up!!
Reaction rating 10 ⭐️
On all your reactions!!!
HI GUYS GREETINGS FROM ENGLAND 🇬🇧 ELVIS WAS THE KING AND ULTIMATE LIVE SINGER AND YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT ELVIS SINGING " STEAMROLLER BLUES" ITS ELVIS AT HIS BEST.
You should watch Can’t help Falling in Love from 1972 (live) when you’ll see him being mauled!
I bet this makes you think grandma wasnt as innocent as she wanted us to think. He will always be the best ever.
Elvis did anything he wanted and if kissing was it, he made a spectacle of it. Nowadays people would think of cold sores and such but those women took their chances 🥰🥰
No COVID in those days😮
I mean, I line up in front of my TV every time I watch this.....lol. Dayum, but I wish I was there for my very special kiss from EP. Love him so much ❤️⚡💯
Thank you both for all your lovely Elvis reactions. I like it a lot. The fans loved Elvis and Elvis loved his fans.They made him big. That´s something Elvis never forget, so he gave it back in grateful attention to kiss his female fans and shake the hands of his male fans. We will love E1vis for eternity.
Would you please react to Elvis song PATCH IT UP, live 1970:

le bosss la bombe du siécle 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏"
❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is half the reason you went to an Elvis concert-to get a kiss, or a scarf. He was southern-we regularly kissed to greet people in the south-it was called a peck!
I had never believed it when my professor in college, both a musicologist and professional symphony musician, himself, told me that he viewed Elvis Presley to be the greatest overall singer of all time. "Why?," "What the hell?," so many of us said? With him first going on to ask what's Frank Sinatra's greatest and/or signature song? "My Way," someone eventually said and then the professor proceeded to show us various polls from over the years which listed Sinatra as the greatest singer ever. Ray Charles and Aretha Franklin were also on top of some, and Elvis, too, on a few. But the point of the exercise was to simply show us Sinatra was considered by many, though it's subjective, to be the greatest.
The class then listened to Sinatra's "My Way," and then Elvis' version, back to back. With the room being roughly split as to whose version was better, "which proved what I thought?" But then the professor showed us Elvis rocking out to 'Trying to Get to You' from the Elvis 1968 Comeback Special. With the point ultimately being that regardless of whose version of 'My Way" you preferred, Elvis was right there, totally at home playing in Sinatra's backyard for lack of better parlance.
But as to Sinatra playing in Elvis' backyard, he said, it couldn't be done, as he said "[i]magine Sinatra, (who he totally loved) trying to do that rock number?" Then going on to say that he had found no singer who had ever sang more genres, more majestically, than Elvis, & he challenged us to find out for ourselves by looking at his full catalogue of Rock, Pop, Soul, Country, Ballads, Gospel and more.
And, when done, I admit I became a convert who was so, so doubtful, at first, I can't even begin to tell you. But from rocking out to 'Trying to Get to You' from that Elvis 1968 Comeback Special, to singing about the dream of humanity coming together with "If I Can Dream," from the same show, I believe you will see what I mean. Elvis even had a voice that could be operatic if you go and listen to 'Hurt' and his version of "You'll Never Walk Alone" will tell you why he has also sold more gospel records than anyone, as well as just tons more, overall. But, with pop and 'Such A Night' to a ballad such as 'They Remind Me Too Much of You,' he did it all, and so, so damn well. While for soul, check out 'Long Black Limousine' or 'You're Wearin' That Loved on Look' which is a bit of another number. Becausde as Elvis' one album cover says, there's 'Something for Everybody.'
Also, and if ultimately you don't think Elvis is the best, that's totally cool as there really is something for everyone!;-) Great channel and I wish you the best!!! ~ Christopher Tyler
P.S. Those recommendations are only, quite literally, the beginning!
I love this story. Thanks for posting it and I totally agree with your teacher. Pavarotti even said that Elvis could sing like him, but he couldn't sing like Elvis. He said Elvis could he been one of the best opera singers with a little training. ❤❤❤
@@jennyjorgensen9935 Thank you, Jenny, and you're quite correct as the 'Three Tenors' loved Elvis! As Placido Domingo had also said if there was any one voice he could have in the whole world it would have been that of Elvis. Have a great night!
Stunningly handsome and awesome threads.
Love your reactions. For all his lovers that have written books and kiss and tell have all had one thing in common that Elvis was the Master at making out sometimes for hours where they had kiss burns around their mouths. Also it was said by his Memphis Mafia ( buddies of his that worked for him and went everywhere with him) that Elvis had a field day in Germany and Paris while in the service when it came to women 😅 I mean, he loved women and we sure as hell love him back!!
FYI-Elvis had four,(that I could identify) of the "Memphis Mafia", his security team walking the crowd with him, so he was well protected.😊
Great reaction guys to a fun video, so carry on enjoying and smiling, as we need more of it these days. I have seen many many great Elvis video song performances, but this is possibly the most memorable in its own way.
It is funny for me to watch people’s reaction to this video. I saw Elvis twice in concert in the 70s. This was part of the show. He always kissed the girls. No one even thought of germs. It was a badge of honor for a man if his girlfriend/ wife was kissed by Elvis. 🤣🤣
Elvis' father was in the audience this night and if you know just when to look you catch a very quick glimpse of him smiling at Elvis as he walks behind his booth - I picture his father thinking "thats my boy" LOL
His "guys" were scared to death for Elvis; you can see them walking around him trying to make sure he doesn't get trampled. Elvis RARELY went into the crowd(only this time,while in Vegas) You can see why they were concerned 😅
what a great time
He was the best.
I wish Elvis could kiss me 💋Most beautiful and talent man ever ❤❤❤❤
Different times and mindset. Also in 1970 there were definitely less overweight people. I was in high school in 1970 there was maybe one fat kid in a class. Elvis was not your average star...he was the first real super star. Thanks for reaction great fun ❤
The trivia question for this song should have been "when was this song written?". The answer is that it was written during the American Civil War. The song was originally called "Aura Lee" and was about a girl named Aura Lee who had golden hair and whenever she was around, swallows filled the air. Of course new lyrics and name were written for it and it became "Love Me Tender".
