This WONDERFUL HUMBLE MAN actually thought he would be totally forgotten when he died. Here we are almost 50 YEARS after the fact...Him being forgotten AIN'T HAPPENING!
Love your Elvis reactions. Elvis thought young people at this time in his career forgot about him. What he never realized is that they simply were growing older, and that new generations of young people would become huge admirers ... male, female, black, white and everyone in between. That would REALLY make Elvis cry tears of JOY. He wanted to bring people together, and he really succeeded. Best that ever did it.
He is so amazing, his music still gives me goosebumps even after listening to them over and over. I hope y6ou continue to share his music, there are so many live video's that are so much fun and touching to watch.
Elvis was not crying..he was sweating. the lights are very hot and his jewel studded outfit was very heavy. Yes he is a legend . I was a teenager when he burst on the music and was on the Ed Sullivan show on tv. Loved him from the beginning to the end of his life which came too soon. He was only 42. The greatest performer ever who with an awesom voice.
I'm a very old woman and I have to say you're one of the top 3 reactors on here. Your enthusiasm for Elvis makes me feel like I'm hearing them for the first time again. Thank you for bringing joy into my life. You have a special gift for lifting people up.
Man, your face is amazing when you watch Elvis you don’t miss a beat. I have watched many other people react to this song but no one shows your enthusiasm. Thank you for the happiness you give me when you watch you.
Not crying just sweat. He was so active in his performances he also had so many precious stones on the suit some say it weighted about 30 lbs. He could make people cry thoug h. He was Executive producer of his music and directed with looks and hand gestures. He had perfect pitch and a 3 octave note range. He played piano by ear. This concert he did for Cancer fund. He raised $75,000 which for those days would be double now. Love your great reactions. Thanks
Lot of perspiration coming down from his forehead underneath his hair, see it on closeups -- from a very warm jumpsuit & huge mega hot house lights & stage lights.The meaning of Trilogy: a medley of three uniquely American pieces: “Dixie,” (dixie means the states down south in the U.S.); “Battle Hymn of the Republic,” a marching hymn of the Union Army during the American Civil War; and “All My Trials,” a Bahamian lullaby related to African American spirituals sung by protesting folksingers of the 1950s. The auditorium held 6,000 people that night -- it was large enough for 8,400 but they had to make room for all the musicians & the ramp -- the ramp manager Parker didn't want built, but Elvis went over Parker's head & told the producer Marty Pasetta to build it -- that way he was able to walk out & get close to the audience.
It's really nice to see younger people, 49 years after this aired, 45 years after he passed, amazed by Elvis's abilities. I know I still am! Half a century, and the Aloha concert still, to me anyway, doesn't look or sound old -- like ig would have been just fine, culturally speaking, if it were produced today. Aloha From Hawaii was Elvis's last big challenge -- and it was a spectacular success!
Yes wow I was amongst the 1.5 billion viewers that day. This was the biggest viewership ever and also the first satellite stream ever…the audience record still holds..no one has beaten it to this day😇
I was in front of the family tv loving the show!! Then I went out and bought the double LP of this show to add to my huge record collection. I still have it as well as a working stereo system to play it on.
I was a little kid watching this live on TV, it happened to be at the time of programming the most watched event in history, satellite feed all over the world. The man was awesome.
Tickets for any Elvis concert were usually sold out within 48 hours. If you weren't quick you didn't get one. My mom snagged tickets fir us twice in 1972. The concert early in the year I was 10 abd it was my first concert ever. That summer my parents split up and mom abd us 2 girls moved to Arizona. For my 11th birthday I got to see him in concert the second time. Those are memories I will never ever forget abd will always cherish.
Great reaction for Elvis ! I think this was in Hawaii ,he has leis around his neck . I think if you want to see Elvis at his very best try The Elvis Comeback 1968 ,it shows the real Elvis ! Thank you
Just so you know .... There are two filming ALOHA FROM HAWAII ...... That happened and that over 1 1/2 billion { with a B } through satellites around the world...... Never attempted before ...... ELVIS WAS THE FIRST...... As I guess it should be watched and now an ungodly amount sense then ..... For Instants here is "what now my love" filmed recordings of the 1973 Hawaii show ...... The rehearsal show { The night before the show ..... SHOW .... } ..... And the show itself ..... { Both shows filled to capacity in Hawaii ..... And both Recorded } ...... However ..... Only one of the shows aired at that time ..... {The second night's recording } ..... So here then is the rehearsal show ..... The endings are different ..... th-cam.com/video/jhRFj8__US8/w-d-xo.html ... And here is the show .... th-cam.com/video/UpjKlOM7KQ4/w-d-xo.html .... Who else but Elvis ....

This was the 1st satellite broadcast in the world! It was shown around the world. 1.5 BILLION people watched this in 1973!!! Other than the Army...Elvis never toured in another country. He wanted to but Col. Parker (his only manager his entire career) held him back. Thank you for taking your time and sharing with us. 🇺🇸
Thank you for reacting to both of my requests. As a 66-year-old man, I truly enjoy watching you young ones react to what my generation watched or listened to back in the day & it puts a smile on this old man's face when I see that you guys enjoy it too.
I love how despite being the biggest star in the World at that time, he loved to showcase the talents of his band, orchestra and backing singers ... in this case, JD Sumner & the Stamps his male backing group, and the flautist Gabe Baltazar, who was in himself a very well known name in Jazz circles ... he passed away only in June 2022, at the age of 92.
There will never be anyone like ,this beautiful man ,inside and out ,who sings with so much passion ,and emotion and the power in his voice ,just reaches you thru your heart ,and soul

Elvis developed an eye disease called glaucoma. The stage lights were very painful for his eyes. He started wearing sunglasses a lot of the time when not performing. He also had several other health issues that bothered him a lot. That is part of the reason he got so addicted to prescripted drugs.
Elvis' VIVE and Flex was WAY beyond anyone who ever stepped on a stage. MJ had his run, but never quite lived up to Elvis' authenticity as the greatest singer, dancer, musician and entertainer Earth had ever witnessed.
I'm so thankful that you young people are reaching out to Elvis music! He was so afraid he would be forgotten! You all are awesome to keeping him ❤️ 👏 alive!! Keep up the good work 👏 ❤❤
A legend? Dude the guy is an Icon ( The biggest selling artist of all time). This concert was broadcasted live to 1.5 Billion people around the world (when the population was 3.5 Billion) - Now grasp the enormity of the man.
Although he wasn’t crying (the lights and jumpsuit were more than warm and would cause Elvis to sweat profusely), you’re right, he really felt his music. That show was performed in front of over 1 BILLION people via satellite.

I went to see him in concert and that’s one concert I’ll never forget. So glad to see young people like you respecting and liking Elvis’s music. Love your channel ❤️
This concert was the first concert broadcast live via satellite around the world. They estimated over 1 billion people watched it live, an all-time record audience. Great reaction. 👍
Thanks for this great reaction. I saw him twice in concert and it was mind blowing. He loved his fans and no matter whether he was sick or tired he sang his guts out. He has sold more recordings than any single artist in the world. Over a Billion. He was a generous humanitarian, see some short vids of his charity. "Elvis Presley A Generous Heart". And " Elvis Presley 200 Cadillacs". He was a friend to other people see "Elvis Meets Muhammad Ali". They were real buddies. Be Blessed

He wasnt crying, sweat, that jumpsuit was very heavy, and reportedly cost $250.000 covered in semi precious jewels. He always gave his all right till his death. The king is dead long live the King ❤
Yes... it was filmed in the early hours in Hawaii so that people about he world could watch it no matter where they lived. Over a billion watched this concert at the same time throughout the world... a billion plus those in the audience... thus is the King of Rock n Roll. And that's how Elvis rolls.
He was crying but not because of emotion. He had an eye condition aggravated by the stage lights and so his eyes would always water on stage. Thats why he always wore tinted glasses off stage
He's not crying, he's sweating. The suit has so many rhinestones it weighs around 70 pounds. The stage lights and television lights are very hot. Also, while looking really good, he isn't as fit here as he was in Las Vegas in1970.
Great reaction. So cool to see how you are immersed in Elvis’s whole performance. Elvis sang with his heart and would ,so that every song was a unique example of his phenomenal talents. Thank you for bringing Elvis to new audiences. Marvellous 👌💕🕺
Great reaction!! Please keep them coming…I’m so sorry to burst your bubble but it’s sweat running down his face, With all the Gems and Stones put on his outfits they weigh an extra 75lbs and then all the lights that are shining on him makes him sweat!! 🔥🔥💡💡🥵🎤🎶💡💡🔥🔥
This concert was a benefit to raise money for the Kui Lei cancer drive. The estimated amount was $25,000 but Elvis raised $75.000! A lot of money in 1973! Record breaking Audience and Money!
Elvis' legendary CHURCH VOICE ricocheted off the walls of that arena while being broadcast to ALMOST TWO BILLION PEOPLE via satellite. More people watched Elvis perform there that night than saw MANs FIRST WALK ON THE MOON. A white man, proud of his Southern roots BUT a rebel against slavery and bigotry performing THIS medley in a NEW STATE (Hawaii) with white and black performers on stage was a complete rebellion with a purpose. And that purpose was to bring people together. Legends were assassinated for doing FAR LESS in the 1960s. Elvis was a voice that we need TODAY. His backstory growing up in a black hunger-stricken neighborhood DURING SEGREGATION & THE GREAT DEPRESSION in dirt poverty, with no running water or electricity was hardcore AF. His twin brother died at birth and had to be BURIED IN A SHOEBOX. A shoebox. Elvis KNEW the streets, the ghetto and not having a pot to pee in. He was a REBEL. But he spoke exclusively through his music AND his backstage and off-set generous actions. Fought for black musicians to be paid and respected, fought to have black artists enter in the front of buildings not black-only entrances, supported black-owned businesses, largely responsible for ending polio on American soil supported the vaccine on Tv, and donating the money to build the most famous children's hospital in the world, ST JUDES CHILDRENS HOSPITAL which has saved MILLIONS of children lives.
Btw that was a concert that was televised over the world and still is the biggest one ever and elvis was the first to do it to, 1,5 billion people saw this concert. And it was for cancer to and raised lot money for it to 👑
That auditorium held only 6,000 people, there jsut weren't big enough stadiums back then. They used mirrors to bring the audience closer to Elvis but jt was broadcast to 1.5bn people
This was recorded in 1973 about 4 years before he died & is about end of slavery in U.S. It was 1st concert broadcast around world by satellite. Reports estimated concert was seen by 1.5 billion people in 36 countries. Concert raised $75,000 (equivalent to $494,400 in 2022) for Kui Lee Cancer Fund (singer who died of cancer in 1966). Trilogy combines 3 songs together-“Dixie” (anthem of Confederate South during Civil War), "Battle Hymn Of The Republic" (anthem of Union North during Civil War to end slavery), & “All My Trials, Lord” (spiritual shows no matter how bleak situation seems, struggle will soon be over). All 3 songs have a lot of verses. “Battle Hymn Of The Republic” is American patriotic song written by abolitionist Julia Ward Howe in 1861 during Civil War. After she heard Union troops singing “John Brown's Body,” she was encouraged to rewrite lyrics for song & use original tune. One verse of hymn says “let us live to make men free”-fight to end slavery. Howe's words angered southerners & Northern Union troops were frequently heard singing it.
A reporter asked Elvis before concert was he going to deliver any messages(political i think) and from what I read he replied no, I am here to entertain people for an hour ,make them happy.
Keep in mind his concerts this concert was a benefit concert and 100% of the funds went to built the Pearl Harbour Monument. Most if not all of his concert went towards some charity, hospital, cause.
He wasn't crying, he was sweating with the hot lights on him and each one of his outfits weighed between 25 and 35 pounds so he would sweat a lot while performing. The reason for the suits weighing so much was because of all the rhinestones on them.
Look up Pastor Bob Joyce Elvis said he wanted to sing gospel songs , get ready world all who you thought were dead are alive witness protection programs soon the truth shall be spoken
This WONDERFUL HUMBLE MAN actually thought he would be totally forgotten when he died. Here we are almost 50 YEARS after the fact...Him being forgotten AIN'T HAPPENING!
Love your Elvis reactions. Elvis thought young people at this time in his career forgot about him. What he never realized is that they simply were growing older, and that new generations of young people would become huge admirers ... male, female, black, white and everyone in between. That would REALLY make Elvis cry tears of JOY. He wanted to bring people together, and he really succeeded. Best that ever did it.
Yes all those people came to see him perform at every concert. I saw him twice in concert he was always AMAZING
This show that was broadcast by satilite was seen live by an estimated 1,5 Billion people world wide,
He is so amazing, his music still gives me goosebumps even after listening to them over and over. I hope y6ou continue to share his music, there are so many live video's that are so much fun and touching to watch.
God sends a living musical angel every 1000 years..this human was that gift
Absolutely love that your generation can appreciate Elvis~
اعظم فنان على مر العصور لم ولن يتكرر الملك بدون منازع
… There are many good singers... but ELVIS is the 💎 Diamond among them!! A millennium singer for eternity !! 🕺🏻🕯 Thank you
Elvis was not crying..he was sweating. the lights are very hot and his jewel studded outfit was very heavy. Yes he is a legend . I was a teenager when he burst on the music and was on the Ed Sullivan show on tv. Loved him from the beginning to the end of his life which came too soon. He was only 42. The greatest performer ever who with an awesom voice.
I'm a very old woman and I have to say you're one of the top 3 reactors on here. Your enthusiasm for Elvis makes me feel like I'm hearing them for the first time again. Thank you for bringing joy into my life. You have a special gift for lifting people up.
Man, your face is amazing when you watch Elvis you don’t miss a beat. I have watched many other people react to this song but no one shows your enthusiasm. Thank you for the happiness you give me when you watch you.
Not crying just sweat. He was so active in his performances he also had so many precious stones on the suit some say it weighted about 30 lbs. He could make people cry thoug h. He was Executive producer of his music and directed with looks and hand gestures. He had perfect pitch and a 3 octave note range. He played piano by ear. This concert he did for Cancer fund. He raised $75,000 which for those days would be double now. Love your great reactions. Thanks
He’s the best that ever lived!! Simply amazing!
the satellite concert watched for over 36 countries
Lot of perspiration coming down from his forehead underneath his hair, see it on closeups -- from a very warm jumpsuit & huge mega hot house lights & stage lights.The meaning of Trilogy: a medley of three uniquely American pieces: “Dixie,” (dixie means the states down south in the U.S.); “Battle Hymn of the Republic,” a marching hymn of the Union Army during the American Civil War; and “All My Trials,” a Bahamian lullaby related to African American spirituals sung by protesting folksingers of the 1950s.

It's really nice to see younger people, 49 years after this aired, 45 years after he passed, amazed by Elvis's abilities. I know I still am!
Half a century, and the Aloha concert still, to me anyway, doesn't look or sound old -- like ig would have been just fine, culturally speaking, if it were produced today.
Aloha From Hawaii was Elvis's last big challenge -- and it was a spectacular success!
He is the GOAT!!
He’s perspiring, not crying.
Yes wow I was amongst the 1.5 billion viewers that day. This was the biggest viewership ever and also the first satellite stream ever…the audience record still holds..no one has beaten it to this day😇
I was in front of the family tv loving the show!! Then I went out and bought the double LP of this show to add to my huge record collection. I still have it as well as a working stereo system to play it on.
Just love seeing young people learning about and loving Elvis. He would be so happy to know it.
I was a little kid watching this live on TV, it happened to be at the time of programming the most watched event in history, satellite feed all over the world. The man was awesome.
I was so lucky to see him in concert
Tickets for any Elvis concert were usually sold out within 48 hours. If you weren't quick you didn't get one. My mom snagged tickets fir us twice in 1972. The concert early in the year I was 10 abd it was my first concert ever. That summer my parents split up and mom abd us 2 girls moved to Arizona. For my 11th birthday I got to see him in concert the second time. Those are memories I will never ever forget abd will always cherish.
Your Elvis reactions are great. I know how you feel.

1.5 Billion
Elvis developed an eye disease called glaucoma. The stage lights were very painful for his eyes. He started wearing sunglasses a lot of the time when not performing. He also had several other health issues that bothered him a lot. That is part of the reason he got so addicted to prescripted drugs.
Elvis' VIVE and Flex was WAY beyond anyone who ever stepped on a stage. MJ had his run, but never quite lived up to Elvis' authenticity as the greatest singer, dancer, musician and entertainer Earth had ever witnessed.
Bravo Elvis! Amazing talent! Elvis puts a smile on everyone's face! Ty for reacting to the King of Rock forever! 😊
I'm so thankful that you young people are reaching out to Elvis music! He was so afraid he would be forgotten! You all are awesome to keeping him ❤️ 👏 alive!! Keep up the good work 👏 ❤❤
So glad you're enjoying Elvis ... there'll never be another like him ... thank you for appreciating him ! TCB forever !
That powerful voice. At the end Elvis pits his one single voice against all the background and his voice takes it! Wow!

Thanks for this great reaction. I saw him twice in concert and it was mind blowing. He loved his fans and no matter whether he was sick or tired he sang his guts out. He has sold more recordings than any single artist in the world. Over a Billion. He was a generous humanitarian, see some short vids of his charity. "Elvis Presley A Generous Heart". And " Elvis Presley 200 Cadillacs". He was a friend to other people see "Elvis Meets Muhammad Ali". They were real buddies. Be Blessed
He’s not crying during the song, he is sweating profusely

He wasnt crying, sweat, that jumpsuit was very heavy, and reportedly cost $250.000 covered in semi precious jewels.
He always gave his all right till his death.
The king is dead long live the King ❤

Over a billion watched this concert at the same time throughout the world... a billion plus those in the audience... thus is the King of Rock n Roll. And that's how Elvis rolls.
Beautiful Gospel's song 👏🏾🧑🎤🎼🎶🎵💕💕👏🏾
He was crying but not because of emotion. He had an eye condition aggravated by the stage lights and so his eyes would always water on stage. Thats why he always wore tinted glasses off stage
That concert was shot by satellite around the world 1.5 biilon people watched it
He's not crying, he's sweating. The suit has so many rhinestones it weighs around 70 pounds. The stage lights and television lights are very hot. Also, while looking really good, he isn't as fit here as he was in Las Vegas in1970.
I love Elvis to ..... but it was 25# ..... Not 70 .......
He's sweating... not crying.. he felt all his music... but he was sweating

Great reaction!! Please keep them coming…I’m so sorry to burst your bubble but it’s sweat running down his face, With all the Gems and Stones put on his outfits they weigh an extra 75lbs and then all the lights that are shining on him makes him sweat!! 🔥🔥💡💡🥵🎤🎶💡💡🔥🔥
I love Elvis to ..... However it was 25# Not 75 ...... Everything else you posted is true ......
This concert was a benefit to raise money for the Kui Lei cancer drive. The estimated amount was $25,000 but Elvis raised $75.000! A lot of money in 1973! Record breaking Audience and Money!
You are my favorit you are amazing thanks for this one!
Elvis was literally the only human, in history, who could cry from his forehead, apparently.
Now that's funny 🤣 😁 😂 😀
Nice video 🎉
Elvis' legendary CHURCH VOICE ricocheted off the walls of that arena while being broadcast to ALMOST TWO BILLION PEOPLE via satellite. More people watched Elvis perform there that night than saw MANs FIRST WALK ON THE MOON.
A white man, proud of his Southern roots BUT a rebel against slavery and bigotry performing THIS medley in a NEW STATE (Hawaii) with white and black performers on stage was a complete rebellion with a purpose. And that purpose was to bring people together. Legends were assassinated for doing FAR LESS in the 1960s. Elvis was a voice that we need TODAY. His backstory growing up in a black hunger-stricken neighborhood DURING SEGREGATION & THE GREAT DEPRESSION in dirt poverty, with no running water or electricity was hardcore AF.
His twin brother died at birth and had to be BURIED IN A SHOEBOX. A shoebox. Elvis KNEW the streets, the ghetto and not having a pot to pee in. He was a REBEL. But he spoke exclusively through his music AND his backstage and off-set generous actions.
Fought for black musicians to be paid and respected, fought to have black artists enter in the front of buildings not black-only entrances, supported black-owned businesses, largely responsible for ending polio on American soil supported the vaccine on Tv, and donating the money to build the most famous children's hospital in the world, ST JUDES CHILDRENS HOSPITAL which has saved MILLIONS of children lives.
Btw that was a concert that was televised over the world and still is the biggest one ever and elvis was the first to do it to, 1,5 billion people saw this concert. And it was for cancer to and raised lot money for it to 👑
That way they call him the king.
He used his Karate to control the band! I was two when this aired and remember every minute of it!
That auditorium held only 6,000 people, there jsut weren't big enough stadiums back then. They used mirrors to bring the audience closer to Elvis but jt was broadcast to 1.5bn people
This concert via satellite was seen by 1.5 billion people worldwide! Another record which has not been broken!
Omg when you pointed and said “that man can play that damn flute” I seriously laughed so hard I started tearing up. Instant sub! 🤣🤣🤣
He's not crying
It's the lights
This was recorded in 1973 about 4 years before he died & is about end of slavery in U.S. It was 1st concert broadcast around world by satellite. Reports estimated concert was seen by 1.5 billion people in 36 countries. Concert raised $75,000 (equivalent to $494,400 in 2022) for Kui Lee Cancer Fund (singer who died of cancer in 1966).
Trilogy combines 3 songs together-“Dixie” (anthem of Confederate South during Civil War), "Battle Hymn Of The Republic" (anthem of Union North during Civil War to end slavery), & “All My Trials, Lord” (spiritual shows no matter how bleak situation seems, struggle will soon be over). All 3 songs have a lot of verses.
“Battle Hymn Of The Republic” is American patriotic song written by abolitionist Julia Ward Howe in 1861 during Civil War. After she heard Union troops singing “John Brown's Body,” she was encouraged to rewrite lyrics for song & use original tune. One verse of hymn says “let us live to make men free”-fight to end slavery. Howe's words angered southerners & Northern Union troops were frequently heard singing it.
A reporter asked Elvis before concert was he going to deliver any messages(political i think) and from what I read he replied no, I am here to entertain people for an hour ,make them happy.
Keep in mind his concerts this concert was a benefit concert and 100% of the funds went to built the Pearl Harbour Monument. Most if not all of his concert went towards some charity, hospital, cause.
THE KING suffered from Glaucoma, he was also a natural blonde who dyed his hair, brows, lashes black. It took a toll on his site
He knew he had limited time
He is not crying its sweat
Check out Suspicious Minds live from Las Vegas.
He wasn't crying, he was sweating with the hot lights on him and each one of his outfits weighed between 25 and 35 pounds so he would sweat a lot while performing. The reason for the suits weighing so much was because of all the rhinestones on them.
It was about the civil war. Blacks are freed from slavery. He is honoring the freedom! A sad song. He is happy about this
He's sweating. His jumpsuit is made out of wool
