@christinemorel696: Correct! I'm not sure if James Brown or B.B.King said it though?! Chuck Berry: "There will never be anyone greater than Elvis Presley"! James Brown: "Not only was I a fan of Elvis, but we were brothers"! B.B.King: "Elvis Presley always came to us back then, when he was still unknown and could go out on his own. Elvis was one of us"! little Richard: "Elvis Presley has done more for us blacks than any politician in the world"!
@germaineperry2764: 100% correct! I am always amazed at what gigantic material he has given the world. After almost 50 years, I find new things about Elvis Presley almost every day. It's incredible!
@@matrix5000100 Some of his best songs have been completely overlooked. I am a 60+ year fan, & I still find gems that most have never heard. Some are from the movies.
Micheal was amazing, saw him twice in concert, but when it comes to vocal capabilities, vocal versatility, looks, bling stage presence and WORLD record sales as a solo artist……. Elvis is King
Agreed NOONE even comes close. Hell when MJ died Lisa Marie had to plead with people to send flowers. With the KING there was zero need for asking, flower shops nation wide with inundated with calls for flowers.
Elvis 18 number one's, jackson 13.top 10 Elvis 40 ,jackson 30,top 40 Elvis 114 jackson 36,top 100 Elvis 149,jackson 47,Elvis only artist to be in all four hall of fame.jackson one.elvis over one billion records sold, jackson 550.end of story jackson doesn't even come close.not even in top 5 .one last thing Elvis never ever lip-sync, pity we can't say that about jackson.
@terrymeddings5563: Everything you wrote is correct. Just not with the “Hall of Fame of Music”. First: Elvis Presley was in all five (not four) "Hall of Fame of Music"! Apparently Jackson was also in all of these (both were the only musicians). I can understand it with Elvis Presley...but not really with Michael Jackson.
@@lechat8533 Elvis 22 years is correct. If you count the film time, only 11 years. Michael Jackson made music for about 42 years. Elvis' legacy was gigantic despite the short time.
Elvis wasn't 'The King of Pop', he was simply 'THE KING', end of story. Elvis was unique in the fact that he had no previous example to draw upon, and was his own creation, whereas Michael Jackson and all the others who came after Elvis, were merely a continuation of what went before them. As the saying goes, 'before anyone did anything, Elvis did everything' - and in regard to changing music and poplar culture forever to allow those after him to follow, then that accolade belongs to Elvis.
Michael Jackson fans never really knew until after the passing of MJ and Elvis how important Elvis was to Michael's solo career. For whatever reason, MJ just was unable to admit while alive to his OBVIOUS influence and attraction to Elvis' stage presentation, clothing, and the way in which he carried himself ON and OFF stage. Elvis was THE FIRST MEGA STAR, and MJ went to school learning everything that he could. When Presley died, he hired much of Elvis' staff. UNDENIABLE EVIDENCE that the King of Pop was heavily influenced by the KING OF ROCK Elvis Presley. 1. MJ hired Elvis' best friend JOE ESPOSITO to manage his career, 2. MJ hired Elvis' CONCERT PROMOTER AEG Live co-CEO Paul Gongaware. 3. MJ hired Elvis' COSTUME DESIGNER Bill Belew (he created outfits for Elvis, the JACKSON 5, then MJ), 4. ... in addition to all the similar dance moves 5. ... in addition and arm and leg movements 6. ... in addition to their desire to create music videos... elaborate video representations of their songs 7. They BOTH lived in THEMED TWO STORY HOMES, Elvis called his escape home Graceland, while MJ decided to call his escape home Neverland. 8. MJ attempted to duplicate Elvis' success in Hollywood, and before his death had made a cameo appearance in Men in Black, and released Moonwalker in 1988, an anthology movie combined with a fantasy tale with Michael’s confrontation with a drug dealer, with limited theatrical release. 9. MJ even went into commercials... Elvis for Southern Maid donuts, and MJ for Pepsi, even though he hated Pepsi... but Elvis did a commercial so..... 10: Merchandise: MJ studied what Col Tom Parker did with Elvis' Merchandise. and a bonus # 11: Elvis had a few monkeys. His first once he purchased before moving into Graceland. Most famously, Elvis bought a pet monkey that he called Scatter who supposedly got drunk on Elvis' movie sets on a few occasions, and MJ bought a monkey and he named it Bubbles. Ok Last One I promise: MJ literally writes a song called... Heartbreak Hotel. Where Elvis co-created a musical art form, MJ largely built on one. Where Elvis changed sexual mores in the conservative wake of World War II (in a very rebellious way that threatened his life with imprisonment and death threats), Michael built on what Elvis began with more sexually suggestive choreographed dance moves. And where Elvis, expanding on James Dean's work, harnessed a burgeoning youth culture that rebelled against the social elites in the 50's youth revolution, the 60's sexual revolution, and the 50's and 60s civil rights movement, MJ drew more attention to it. MJ did it brilliantly ... but his cultural impact pales in comparison to Presley's'. Elvis came along at just the time the first identifiable generation of teenagers were about to substitute a drive for freedom for their parents' drive for security. 'With the change in values came a change in music and you had the impact of what became rock and roll'. 'Elvis stood at the cusp of that generational revolution. TV + YOUTH REVOLUTION ... and Elvis just ran away with the football. MJ really did copy as much as he could from Elvis, and that's OK... because MJ put HIS SPIN on it, but LET'S BE HONEST and call it straight down the line, MJ VERY CLEARLY was inspired by Elvis Presley and how he defined himself as a SUPERSTAR and legend. I respect Elvis and MJ for being the TWO KINGS of MUSIC that they are. Brilliantly fan-made Elvis' and Michael Jackson's "I Got A Feeling in my Body" studies some of Elvis' moves that MJ picked up on and included in his stage presentation. th-cam.com/video/-I2tsnuC0nE/w-d-xo.html
@@depper you have done your homework and scored A++… I knew Joe Esposito ( his dad Frank and my dad were born in the same small town in south Italy.. yes for a short time he did manage MJ…. And Joe told me himself how great MJ was( and he was)..BUT!!! No comparison to King Elvis especially in vocals, looks, and presence
Elvis DIDNT name Graceland, that's the name it came with. It was named after Grace Toof, the aunt of Ruth Brown Moore, the original owner of the property. Ruth’s aunt, Grace, was a female relative of the S.C. Toof family, who had owned the land for generations. The Moores built the mansion in 1939 and named it after Grace Toof in her honor. It’s worth noting that there is no direct connection between Elvis Presley and the original naming of Graceland. Elvis purchased the property in 1957 and made it his home, but the name “Graceland” predates his ownership and is rooted in the property’s history with the Toof family and the Moores.
Elvis by far..and I have seen MJ live 2 times. I have seen this this since late 80’s..Elvis was more natural and had fun in his shows and talked to his audience..MJ did just say I Love You 23 times. Elvis is The King❤
@@Snorkebogan I've seen MJ live too, and unfortunately never Elvis 😭 that's one of the things I loved so much about Elvis, how he showed his personality on stage, was so relaxed, had fun, so down to earth,and Gorgeous 🥰
In his area, Mike was the Best. Elvis could not do what Mike did. Mike could not do what Elvis did. Both were extremely talented, perfectionists, and they loved what they did. That`s why they were the best and second to none.
I'm not 100% sure Elvis couldn't do MJ. MJ was a better dancer and he wrote music. Vocally, I think Elvis could do most things Michael did but Michael couldn't deliver the power Elvis had. However, I think both Elvis and MJ would praise each other and downplay comparisons. They'd feel complimented.
It all started with Elvis, the fans made him king and Michael crowned him himself, see also the pictures. Elvis once got a crown from a fan in a concert and he wanted him to put it on but Elvis said that the kingship does not belong to him but to Jesus Christ. This can be heard on youtube.
@zs4855: Elvis Presley (there are audio recordings of this): "There is only one king and that is Jesus Christ"! Michael Jackson: "Why does everyone say Elvis is the king but no one says me king"!? There is film footage of this - does anyone have it?
I agree that Michael was influenced/inspired by Elvis and developed his own style. Its like Elvis' exposure to gospel, R&B, blues and other genres when living in a black community influenced his style. Elvis openly talked about how the music in that community that inspired him. Elvis was a fan of Michael when he was a boy in Jackson 5 and wanted Lisa Marie to meet Michael.
It's true: Elvis Presley was already called the "King of Pop" in the 1960s! There are original reports of this from the 1960s. It is also true that some music historians say that Elvis Presley invented the pop sound. It is also true that Elvis' last Caddilac was sold a few weeks ago, with the title: "The last car of the ""King of Pop"" Elvis Presley"! In 2014 (?) an Elvis house was sold (not Graceland) with the title: "This is how the "King of Pop" lived - Elvis Presley!
ELVIS was /is the one and only, the original, there have been quite a few that have used some of his style, but Micheal Jackson didn’t just copy, he claimed a lot of Elvis’s art and claimed it as his own, then took it to the next level..Offensive…
Michael said he copied his dance moves from Elvis. He wanted to be Elvis so much that he married Elvis' daughter. I never saw Michael play a musical instrument. Elvis could play them all.Michael choreographed his stage move. Elvis just went with the rhythm. Elvis had 5o different singing voices. Michael only sang falsetto. Elvis actually was an 8th degree black belt..a true bad ass, military trained and an expert rifleman. Elvis served his country honorably and drove tanks, Michael could never have been accepted in the military, Michael has a tenth of Elvis' beauty, talent and charisma. he was not the highest paid actor of his time. Elvis was. Elvis holds the world record for concert attendance says Guiness. Sony says Elvis sold more than 4 billion recordings worldwide. Michael is not close.Elvis was so popular that both Democrat and Republicans wanted him as VP candidate, Never was Michael considered. He was too weird and an accused pedophile. Elvis was/is popular with every age group..not Michael.My age group and older despise him for the freak he turned himself into . 23 years after his death, Elvis was named Entertainer of the Century with his short career of22 years, He beat out the Beatles, Michael and Frank Sinatra whose careers were twice as long, and in spite of Michael's Thriller. I was alive during both men. Joe Esposito was Elvis' and Michael's road manager. He said Michael's crowd connection and reaction paled to Elvls. I concur, I lived through both men's popularity. Elvis became a god. Michael and Elizabeth Taylor came up with a plan to market Michael. They came up with calling him king of pop. Musical peers named Elvis King. AS Elvis says, Jesus is king, but Elvis is the King of Music. FYI, Elvis was so popular that the US government still credits Elvis as ending the polio epidemic. No other entertainer did such. Elvis is credited by Hungary as saving 50 million of Hungarians from starvation. Elvis hada a photographic memory and was double jointed..not Michael.
La tua espressione composta e seria rivella quello che pensi di Elvis. i agree with you absolutely and Michael, like other musicians, came under the influence of Elvis. then he developed his own way of composing music and dance. They are 2 legends.
Michael Jackson used to write a lot of jealous rants about Elvis and was angry at the fact that he was known as the King. He stated he didn’t see Elvis as an influence for him but clearly stole a lot of Elvis’ creativity/lifestyle and some of his dance moves… I think he was totally jealous of Elvis and wanted his success. EDITED: The MJ fan in the replies is coping hard and denying real hard. We all know he stole a lot of Elvis’ stage presence and quirky traits and moves he had on stage. th-cam.com/video/-I2tsnuC0nE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=nAX6NuBRfQ61JT7- We all know he used Lisa his own daughter because that’s how much he was obsessed with Elvis. Lisa even stated he was a virgin in her new book. Just used her as a beard and to fix his own falling image.
@@for-house-stark No it’s not wishful thinking. I said he got some of his dance moves from Elvis such as the legendary tippy toe stance and the gliding walk but still standing in the same place… he stole it from him actually. The Beatles were not more successful than Elvis 🤣 they actually were influenced by him… they’re definitely more successful than MJ though… MJ isn’t even the best selling artists or solo artist of all time… you’re in every comment section. Leave.
@@for-house-stark There are actual pictures of Michael taking the same pictures as Elvis did doing the tip-toe stance. I’m not saying he made that dance up, but he didn’t do it the same way Fred Astaire did it, even the leg bent and camera angles were exactly similar to Elvis’ photoshoots and performances. The glide dance Elvis did at his Tupelo concert was the exact same way MJ used to do it on stage… MJ is NOT the best selling solo artist of all time. 😂 It’s Elvis. He sold over 1B… check your facts. The Beatles are the best selling artists of all time but they’re a group who cares… MJ hasn’t surpassed neither of them regardless. Wishful thinking on your end. MJ had a complete obsession with Elvis he was obsessed with his fame and his daughter he “married” he didn’t even sleep with.
@@for-house-stark Wrong, wrong and wrong. th-cam.com/video/-I2tsnuC0nE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=qxg7jzsS9rUzQkn2 Lisa said MJ was a virgin and didn’t state they had sex in her new book… 😂
he first met mike and the Jackson 5 when they were very young and Lisa was a fan, they did meet and Elvis told them all to stay clean and stay away from drugs, as a side note also the osmands and gave them advice on stage clothes. after Elvis met the osmands they all got white jumpsuits like he had in 1970. Micheal Jackson in later years seemed to have some resentment for not really exceeding Elvis as a cultural icon
M. J. Not in. Elvis s league. Might have done a few good shows but never ever came near. Elvis. Elvis had the charisma m J didn't. Yes he's very much still in our hearts and minds.memories. Always will till we pass. Such a masterful entertainer. Man so kind generous.loving.gave so generously too. Just the sound of his voice. Wow there goes our hearts. Beautiful beautiful voice and such a very handsome man. M. J may have been king of pop.but. Elvis was. Is the king of music. All diff types. Ive only ever heard one song he was a bit off on. In all the songs he sang. Oh what a voice !! Thank you.so much. Truly amazing to hear him sing the last two. Hi from. Aus.
Elvis was versatile like no other singer. Elvis started the sexual and generational revolution, not the 60s generation. Elvis appeared like a hurricane and swept the world off its feet. Elvis gave the conservative post-WWII generations of young people something new, something of their own, something they never had. There are so many things Elvis was the first to do. He had no TV to be inspired by. All his parents had was a radio. I find it nonsensical to compare two utterly different artists. Without Elvis no Michael Jackson. Elvis is the King of Rock and Michael is the King of Pop. Both have their crowns and both are unique, All is well :)
ELVIS HAD THE VOICE. ELVIS WILL ALWAYS BE TOWERING OVER MICHAEL AS THE REAL DEAL. THE JACKSON THING WAS ALL A OUT BEING BLACK, EVEN THOUGH HE WAS ALWAYS TRYING TO BE WHITE. EVEN HIS "MARRIAGE" TO ELVIS'S DAUGHTER WAS TO TAKE A DIG AT ELVIS.
Elvis is known in the world as "The King". There was no way for Michael Jackson to get his title because Elvis is kind a "music god" in music, so they were force to call Jackson "King of Pop".
I greatly dislike the way some Elvis & MJ fans will nastily pit these two against each other in order to prover their favorite is better. That being said, Michael Jackson was influenced by Elvis by the mere fact that he created content in modern music whose birth was Elvis Presley's paradigm shifting career (which can still be felt today) and MJ also clearly took other overt inspirations from Elvis artistically whether he liked to admit it or not. It doesn't take away from either one as artist, everyone has their favorites, and both made timeless hits.
Hey mate Great reaction If you really want to see how much Michael Jackson copied Elvis Can you please react to I Got A Feeling In My Body Elvis and Michael Jackson version Some of Michael's moves were exactly the same as Elvis Michael Jackson also married Lisa Marie Presley'❤ Michael admired Elvis but he wouldn't admit it
@for-house-stark good one, mate Before you comment. Get your facts right Elvis was crowned King by the media in the 50s. Which he didn't like to be called King Elvis said there is only one King and that is Jesus Christ Unlike Michael Jackson who crowned himself King Why did he crowned himself King Was Michael threaten that Elvis was better than him They were both good at what they did but Elvis was the first and everyone that came after Elvis Copied Elvis Watch that video I suggested in my first comment Then get back to me and tell me if Michael Jacksons moves were exactly like Elvis 👍
Elvis is The King of Music for sure, but in late 2003 The Daily Mail newspaper stated 'The Real King Of Pop' as Sir Cliff Richard. Both Prince and Cliff (and certainly Elvis) have much, much better voices than Michael Jackson. You could call Michael 'The King of Dancing' but never The King Of Singing Rock 'n' Roll or Pop, or any other music. No way!🥰
@@for-house-stark I agree MJ was a phenomenal performer but several MJ fans despite him being their eternal number 1 the way he complimented his singing and dancing perfectly to make awesome shows, admitted the singing capabilities were way in EP's favour.
@@for-house-stark I am talking capabilities, Surrender 1961, Trying To Get To You live 1968, Bridge Over Troubled Water live 1970 - but let's leave it there - have a nice day.
Main differences: Michael really wanted to beat Elvis's record; Elvis wasn't trying to beat anyone's record but his own. Elvis was dubbed the King of Rock & Roll in 1956 by the media; Michael insisted that all media address him as the King of Pop. Majority of Elvis's dance moves were original that he came up with on his own except for in the movies where he worked with choreographers to do dance moves that fit into his own dance style. Michael always worked with choreographers; he didn't come up with any of his own dance moves. Elvis's dress style(s) were all his own; Michael incorporated a lot of Elvis dress styles into his performances. Elvis could sing basically any type of music from R&B to Rockabilly, Gospel, the Blues & country. Michael was predominantly a pop singer. Michael refused to admit that he took inspiration (in most ways) from Elvis. Elvis paid homage to Black artists that he drew inspiration from both in interviews & on stage. Both had a massive amount of fans and both had fans that liked both artists. However, Elvis was the original. Thanks for the video; I'd not seen it before & thank you for your review.
You can see Elvis' influence on Michael! Michael even copied some of Elvis" moves!! Proving to me that Elvis was and still is the original influencer to so many artists! Michael was dubbed the King of Pop, which was deserved! However, to me Elvis was and still is "The One and Only King of Music!! ❤🎉! Thank you so very much for your reaction!! ❤
@@for-house-starkSomebody needs to open their eyes! yes the were some exaggerated pics but the influence is clear to see! What is the worst part about it though being honest about it all would have put this all to bed!
Elvis was better in every way. I do love MJ, but he was a warm, milky cup of tea in comparison to Elvis's energised full-bodied rich roast... in sound and looks. MJ was programmed to be great, Elvis was born great. For me, always Elvis, he was a walking orgasm and endured all the extreme fame and pitfalls without any advice, any image consultants nor blueprint of how to navigate being the first global superstar. MJ claimed not to rate Elvis, at least Tito had the balls to admit it. Elvis even endorsed The Jackson 5 and encouraged people to go see them live. Elvis had morw class in his little finger than MJ had in his entire body. MJ emulated Elvis , no doubt about it and he'd never have criticised him. But remember the jealous and bitter Quincy Jones who bullied MJ over Billy Jean, said that Elvis was a racist, all because he didn’t get the conductor's job for Elvis's live shows... For me, Elvis wins hand down, he was better, sexier, more natural and his vocals were stronger live. MJ had to mime half the time because he was a dancer & singer. Elvis was a singer, musician and producer who happened to dance beautifully and was the most beautiful man who ever lived. Can't beat that ❤
ELVIS HAS LEFT THE BUILDING 💙 WAS SAID. IN 1973 THE POPULATION WAS SMALLER. FOR T.V. WAS JUST BEGINNING STAGES OF CABLE. SO I.5 BILLION PEOPLE WAS THE ESTIMATE.. THERE WERE PEOPLE GATHERING TOGETHER IN FRIENDS HOME BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T HAVE THAT MUCH... AT ONE POINT M.J. WANTED TO BUY ELVIS'S CATILOGE... NOW ELVIS CAME TO US IN FIFTY FOUR.. M.J. WASN'T EVEN BORN.. M.J. WAS BORN IN 1958.. I SEEN HIM TWICE AND ELVIS ONCE..NOW TAKE A LOOK WHO BOUGHT THE RIGHTS OF THESE TWO.. OUR GREAT SHAQUEL O'NEIL ( BASKETBALL PLAYER ) HE HAS HIS HANDS IN ALOT OF DEAD PEOPLE. PLEASE LOOK IT UP.. BOTHMEN WERE GREAT.
Recuerden que. La familia. Queria. Que la mansion de MJ fuera una nueva Creceland y ser sepultado en la mansion. HSta para eso fue una copia. Pero en blc y negro
Elvis never proclaimed himself as a king. He said the king is Jesus Christ Michael Jackson proclaimed himself as a king because he’s jealous of Elvis and he’s a piece of crap.
Its very apparent that MJ copied much from Elvis. MJ was born in 1959, so he would have seen many Elvis films, and later saw Elvis on the Vegas stage. Michael left the Jackson 5 in 1984, just 7 years after Elvis left us. He definitely wanted to be the new KING..and yes, even married Lisa Marie..Michael was talented, no doubt, however, he did not have that SPECIAL charisma that Elvis had.. They each had much turmoil in their lives, and both died too young. ELVIS WAS THE ORIGINAL
No one can be compared to Elvis....❤ Elvis is and always will be the best....The problem I have is that MJ fans are always comparing MJ to Elvis...😂..It's actually pathetic.... MJ just had one album.... Thriller that's it...He just sings bubble gum pop... Elvis can sing opera..😂...I was once a MJ fan and I out grew MJ.....I have never outgrown Elvis...💛💫👑
@@for-house-stark i agree with you on those part with the pictures,but you must be blind not to see mj took what elvis did and did his thing,yes he took stuff from fred astair and james brown,but its so easy to see some of those dance moves are clearly taken from elvis,i mean if you cant see that,i dont know what to tell you. can you really believe mj on what inspired him? this is a man claiming to invent the moonwalk,when other black dancers did the same walk in the 1930's. lastly check another vid showing elvis and mj dance moves,mostly vids not pictures,and tell me mj didnt take dance moves from elvis,just check man.
Without Quincy Jones, MJ would never have received this status like you, I’m not s MJ fan, Prince was better and more talented . Elvis still #1 with no peers.
Elvis never stole from Michael Jackson its the other way around. Elvis is not only the King of Rock 'N' Roll but the king of music. PS lets clear up another point in relation to Michael Jackson and Elvis. Elvis is the most successful solo artist ever with having sold 1. 5 billion records worldwide. Michael Jackson does not come close only the Beatles are on par with Elvis and they are a group. For further proof Michael stole from Elvis watch Jailhouse rock the dance moves .
IMHO You are being too kind regarding MJ if you read Lisa's book MJ remembered everything about her from yeard before even dowm to the dress she was wearing when they met years befor no, he was more than obsessed ... Think what you may or may not like about Presely she has even made comments on the subject.
Ok some of the costumes are close but remember Elvis was around before Michael was so you are going to see things that maybe look the same. As for the dance moves Elvis started it and others followed, including MJ. Im a big Elvis fan and tbh Elvis is bigger than jackson but Jackson was still a very good entertainer no doubt and hes videos are amazing but for me not a great singer , but as a star he was up there no doubt. I saw MJ in london live so i know I never got to see Elvis but you can tell he is a better singer , dancer probably not but Elvis didnt need to grab his crotch all the time like MJ did.
Michael certainly stole from Elvis, but he took the choreography quite a bit further. But he'd also looked up to Elvis most of his life, and even though I'm not a fan of Michael Jackson either, I think he was the only one with a similar format, so it's okay that he skewed a little for his great idol!
@for-house-stark He did not! He made the whole world listen to something, that had it's roots in black musik, and we love it! What is wrong with that? MJ made music with roots in white peoples popular music, but nobody's blaming him!
@for-house-stark So you don't think, that white people has any musical traditions???? Elvis played the music he had heard all his life, from the cradle, and trough all his childhood. Every Sunday, when he went to church, this was the music he heard, and learned to sing and play too. He loved that music, when his Mother sang the same songs as his lullaby, and when the whole family Presley sang at dusk on the porch in the warm summer evenings. How can you say, that it wasn't his music, and that he had no right to it???
@@for-house-stark You said he stole the music from black people, and I have heard so many vild argument about that subject, and Elvis beeing a racist during the years, that it makes me on guard. Music belongs to all of us so let's just enjoy it regardless who performance it!
@@for-house-stark if Elvis stole from black artists, then Michael stole from them too. Being born black didn't make Michael more *entitled to black music. That's like saying he stole from white people, when you cite that he was influenced by Bing Crosby 😂 That's like saying Beyoncé stole from white music by singing c&w! Or Ray Charles for making a C&W album. Where did it start and where does it end. Elvis always referred to his blues and gospel roots (his roots were embedded in black society), that's where he felt most comfortable. Every other black artist called him down home, even a brother. So why the hatred for Elvis. Make it make sense. LR said he made him bigger by covering Tutti Fruitti. Another thing, Elvis sings Take My Hand Precious Lord, miles better than Beyoncé did, check her screaming, emotionless live version compared to his.
Michael denied he was inspired by Elvis I call BS He said his Inpirations were Fred Astaire James Brown -- Elvis introduced the Jackson 5 in Vegas telling the audience how great they were --- They had the same Cosume Deisigner -- Belew's work with Elvis led to other celebrities, including the Jacksons, seeking out his design services and many others -- but how could MJ copy everything Elvis wore???? to me makes no sense-- but that's my opinion and I LOVEEEEEEE ELVIS!!!!! LISA NEVER ONCE SAID ANYTHING LIKE THAT BELIEVE ME SHE WOULD OF - JACKSON SAID TO LISA HE WAS SCARED HE WOULD DIE LIKE HER DADDY I DO KNOW THAT -- I SAY THIS WITH TOTAL RESPECT OF ELVIS & MJ -- MJ WAS MY ERA -
MEMPHISROCKS1"TCB" "TLC"; There Is Only ONE MEGA GIANT ICON, ONE MEGA GIANT LEGEND And ONE MEGA GIANT LEGACY. All The' Other Artists Including Michael Jackson Are Just FOLLOWERS In The SHADOW'S Of THE' KING OF ALL MUSIC AND ENTERTAINMENT "HRM" KING ELVIS PRESLEY'S FOOT STEPS.
@@for-house-stark My man check out the I GOT A FEELING VIDEO and u see how much little michael copied ELVIS...50 yrs later their still talking about Elvis!!..Michael is dead and gone!.
I don't want to say that M.J "took", I would say that he got Inspired by things like using a name simular to Elvis home, Graceland (Elvis) and Neverland (M.J:s home). I think that Lisa Marie wanted the marriage to be real, but I don't think that ever M.J felt the same, I hope to be wrong about that, but it was over (divorce) very fast, it lasted a little over 1.5 years, or something... Some of the things in this video is a huge bit of a stretch to me, like the charities, many celeberties does that, but yes Elvis gave more then any other celebrity ever did and not for a story in a newspaper. Elvis is still the only celebrity that I know, that have a organisation that helps Homeless get back into society (Presley Charitable Foundation / Presley Place). A thing that is real for anyone to see other then the marridge to Lisa Marie, it is that Elvis had a monkey (Scatter) and M.J also got a monkey (Bubbles), that is a strange animal to have for anyone, so why would M.J get just a monkey !! I would never say that M.J stole from Elvis, he did like many others, he got inspiration from Elvis and surley from others, that is what you need to do. If you don't then you are not going to stay at the top, but you also need to get your own special style...
@@julianmiguel6508 I think that she wanted it to be real and also wanted to rescue him. I hope to be wrong, but I really doubt that he wanted it because he truly loved her. He had his children with another woman very soon after the divorce...
Elvis was one of a kind, he had it all. MJ was under such pressure from his abusive dad, and was a disturbed teen and man. It was obvious he copied so much from Elvis including dressing like him, yet MJ denied it. He even married Elvis daughter, Lisa Marie. Lisa said in everyday life Michael used his real voice, not the high boyish voice. Elvis came by his music organically since he was a child. He did it because he loved singing and entertaining people.
@@for-house-stark yes some comparisons are ridiculous, even laughable, but MJ definitely got some inspiration from Elvis, even though he would never admit it, and I'm a MJ fan , seen him in concert, had all his DVDs know a lot about him, but Elvis still has my heart and soul ❤️
@@for-house-stark Elvis was the first to become the biggest star on the planet, the whole package of Elvis is what inspired MJ, he was fascinated with his star power and how idolized he was, lots of reasons, none of his so called inspirations were anywhere near as big as Elvis became, he wanted the exact same for himself, and more or less got what he wanted to an extent, I wouldn't say he was musically inspired by Elvis, more the showmanship x
@@for-house-stark ok whatever way you see it, I know all about MJ and his achievements, you don't need to tell me , you see it how you want, and I will do the same 🙂, Thank you x
@for-house-stark 😂😂😂😂 I've done all the research too, but I really don't think you have researched Elvis, where as I have researched both 🙂🙂, end of, I have more important things to waste my energy on, Goodnight x
There will never be anyone ever as good as Elvis Elvis is the greatest entertainer we will ever see as long as this planet still rotates. Michael Jackson is a wannabe. He was jealous and I’m sick of his ass.
@for-house-stark It was not Neverland but the last home of Michael Jackson where he passed away was just few steps away from the home owned by Elvis Presley in the Holmby Hills!
Micheal studied all the greatest entertainers to become the greatest of his time . Elvis is the greatest thing to happen to music ever , Michael was the greatest entertainer of his time , after Elvis
Michael had so many talents that Elvis didn't come close to possessing and Elvis was notorious for ripping off everything he could from black artists. Why don't you make a video about how Elvis stole from Jackie Wilson, Big Mama Thornton, and Jesse Belvin, for starters?
Let’s set the record straight: Elvis didn’t steal music, and comparing him to Michael Jackson doesn’t hold up. Take “Hound Dog” as an example-Big Mama Thornton didn’t write it; Leiber and Stoller did. Elvis took the song, gave it his own style, and turned it into a global hit. That’s what Elvis did: he didn’t just perform songs; he transformed them into timeless classics. Even decades after his death, Elvis is still a cultural icon, with new movies like Elvis (2022) and millions visiting Graceland every year. He mastered multiple genres-rock, pop, gospel, blues, and country-earning places in three different Halls of Fame. Michael Jackson dominated pop, but he didn’t have the versatility or range that Elvis did. Elvis also broke cultural barriers, introducing rhythm and blues to mainstream audiences in a segregated America. He always gave credit to the Black artists who inspired him and brought their music to a global stage, opening doors for countless others. Elvis wasn’t just an artist; he was a cultural phenomenon. Michael Jackson was great, but his impact doesn’t come close to what Elvis achieved. That’s why, even today, Elvis remains The King.
The video you're reacting to is stupid. Most of the comparisons weren't even that similar and or they took inspiration from the same places. MJ has stated repeatedly that his musical inspirations were James Brown, Jackie Wilson, Fred Astaire, Sammy Davis Jr., And Motown. Could he have been inspired by Elvis career wise? Sure. Were some of the clothes similar? Some but most of them were far fetch. I mean MJ and Elvis both wearing red and black suit? Wearing Gold clothes? Come on, that's to copying that's just show business.
he should have showned the vid showing of elvis and mj dance moves,to really show the similarities,pictures aint good enough,but the vid im talking about,you can clearly see elvis had influnce mj's dance moves without a doubt.
Elvis lives on ❤ best forever
Like James Brown, said Elvis,didn't copy us we copy Elvis, case close.RIP Elvis, The G.O.A.T. 🕺🎸🎤👑⭐👍✌👌❤🙏
@christinemorel696: Correct! I'm not sure if James Brown or B.B.King said it though?! Chuck Berry: "There will never be anyone greater than Elvis Presley"! James Brown: "Not only was I a fan of Elvis, but we were brothers"! B.B.King: "Elvis Presley always came to us back then, when he was still unknown and could go out on his own. Elvis was one of us"! little Richard: "Elvis Presley has done more for us blacks than any politician in the world"!
NOW THATS A TRUE STATEMENT ❤
One of a kind❤ Elvis
To be fair, both are one of a kind. Everybody is.
There will never be anyone that comes close to what Elvis achieved during his short life!
LOVE THIS BEAUTIFUL MAN NOBODY COMPARES TO ELVIS ❤
@@germaineperry2764 well said, now imagine if he had toured the world….
@germaineperry2764: 100% correct! I am always amazed at what gigantic material he has given the world. After almost 50 years, I find new things about Elvis Presley almost every day. It's incredible!
@@matrix5000100 Some of his best songs have been completely overlooked. I am a 60+ year fan, & I still find gems that most have never heard. Some are from the movies.
Micheal was amazing, saw him twice in concert, but when it comes to vocal capabilities, vocal versatility, looks, bling stage presence and WORLD record sales as a solo artist……. Elvis is King

Not completely wrong, but wrong.
Agreed NOONE even comes close. Hell when MJ died Lisa Marie had to plead with people to send flowers. With the KING there was zero need for asking, flower shops nation wide with inundated with calls for flowers.

@catzzzvd2635: I have an article from 2023 on my computer (in German): “Even today, Elvis Presley has the most fans in the world”!
Elvis..the real King of music
Elvis said that Michael Jackson was the Queen of Rock lol
Elvis 18 number one's, jackson 13.top 10 Elvis 40 ,jackson 30,top 40 Elvis 114 jackson 36,top 100 Elvis 149,jackson 47,Elvis only artist to be in all four hall of fame.jackson one.elvis over one billion records sold, jackson 550.end of story jackson doesn't even come close.not even in top 5 .one last thing Elvis never ever lip-sync, pity we can't say that about jackson.
Elvis`s professional career lasted 22 years and Michael's lasted 30.
@terrymeddings5563: Everything you wrote is correct. Just not with the “Hall of Fame of Music”. First: Elvis Presley was in all five (not four) "Hall of Fame of Music"! Apparently Jackson was also in all of these (both were the only musicians). I can understand it with Elvis Presley...but not really with Michael Jackson.
@@lechat8533 Elvis 22 years is correct. If you count the film time, only 11 years. Michael Jackson made music for about 42 years. Elvis' legacy was gigantic despite the short time.
Elvis inspira até hoje.
Elvis wasn't 'The King of Pop', he was simply 'THE KING', end of story. Elvis was unique in the fact that he had no previous example to draw upon, and was his own creation, whereas Michael Jackson and all the others who came after Elvis, were merely a continuation of what went before them. As the saying goes, 'before anyone did anything, Elvis did everything' - and in regard to changing music and poplar culture forever to allow those after him to follow, then that accolade belongs to Elvis.
He started it, everyone else copied!
Elvis or Jackson? Easy. Elvis
Michael Jackson fans never really knew until after the passing of MJ and Elvis how important Elvis was to Michael's solo career. For whatever reason, MJ just was unable to admit while alive to his OBVIOUS influence and attraction to Elvis' stage presentation, clothing, and the way in which he carried himself ON and OFF stage.
Elvis was THE FIRST MEGA STAR, and MJ went to school learning everything that he could. When Presley died, he hired much of Elvis' staff. UNDENIABLE EVIDENCE that the King of Pop was heavily influenced by the KING OF ROCK Elvis Presley.
1. MJ hired Elvis' best friend JOE ESPOSITO to manage his career,
2. MJ hired Elvis' CONCERT PROMOTER AEG Live co-CEO Paul Gongaware.
3. MJ hired Elvis' COSTUME DESIGNER Bill Belew (he created outfits for Elvis, the JACKSON 5, then MJ),
4. ... in addition to all the similar dance moves
5. ... in addition and arm and leg movements
6. ... in addition to their desire to create music videos... elaborate video representations of their songs
7. They BOTH lived in THEMED TWO STORY HOMES, Elvis called his escape home Graceland, while MJ decided to call his escape home Neverland.
8. MJ attempted to duplicate Elvis' success in Hollywood, and before his death had made a cameo appearance in Men in Black, and released Moonwalker in 1988, an anthology movie combined with a fantasy tale with Michael’s confrontation with a drug dealer, with limited theatrical release.
9. MJ even went into commercials... Elvis for Southern Maid donuts, and MJ for Pepsi, even though he hated Pepsi... but Elvis did a commercial so.....
10: Merchandise: MJ studied what Col Tom Parker did with Elvis' Merchandise.
and a bonus # 11: Elvis had a few monkeys. His first once he purchased before moving into Graceland. Most famously, Elvis bought a pet monkey that he called Scatter who supposedly got drunk on Elvis' movie sets on a few occasions, and MJ bought a monkey and he named it Bubbles.
Ok Last One I promise: MJ literally writes a song called... Heartbreak Hotel. Where Elvis co-created a musical art form, MJ largely built on one.
Where Elvis changed sexual mores in the conservative wake of World War II (in a very rebellious way that threatened his life with imprisonment and death threats), Michael built on what Elvis began with more sexually suggestive choreographed dance moves. And where Elvis, expanding on James Dean's work, harnessed a burgeoning youth culture that rebelled against the social elites in the 50's youth revolution, the 60's sexual revolution, and the 50's and 60s civil rights movement, MJ drew more attention to it. MJ did it brilliantly ... but his cultural impact pales in comparison to Presley's'.
Elvis came along at just the time the first identifiable generation of teenagers were about to substitute a drive for freedom for their parents' drive for security. 'With the change in values came a change in music and you had the impact of what became rock and roll'. 'Elvis stood at the cusp of that generational revolution. TV + YOUTH REVOLUTION ... and Elvis just ran away with the football.
MJ really did copy as much as he could from Elvis, and that's OK... because MJ put HIS SPIN on it, but LET'S BE HONEST and call it straight down the line, MJ VERY CLEARLY was inspired by Elvis Presley and how he defined himself as a SUPERSTAR and legend. I respect Elvis and MJ for being the TWO KINGS of MUSIC that they are. Brilliantly fan-made Elvis' and Michael Jackson's "I Got A Feeling in my Body" studies some of Elvis' moves that MJ picked up on and included in his stage presentation.

@@depper you have done your homework and scored A++… I knew Joe Esposito ( his dad Frank and my dad were born in the same small town in south Italy.. yes for a short time he did manage MJ…. And Joe told me himself how great MJ was( and he was)..BUT!!! No comparison to King Elvis especially in vocals, looks, and presence
You can't talk about elvis without mentioning mj you guys are obsessed😂
@@hannabelesti9646MJ fans do the same
@@julianmiguel6508 nahh
Elvis DIDNT name Graceland, that's the name it came with. It was named after Grace Toof, the aunt of Ruth Brown Moore, the original owner of the property. Ruth’s aunt, Grace, was a female relative of the S.C. Toof family, who had owned the land for generations. The Moores built the mansion in 1939 and named it after Grace Toof in her honor.
It’s worth noting that there is no direct connection between Elvis Presley and the original naming of Graceland. Elvis purchased the property in 1957 and made it his home, but the name “Graceland” predates his ownership and is rooted in the property’s history with the Toof family and the Moores.
Elvis by far..and I have seen MJ live 2 times. I have seen this this since late 80’s..Elvis was more natural and had fun in his shows and talked to his audience..MJ did just say I Love You 23 times.
Elvis is The King❤
@@Snorkebogan I've seen MJ live too, and unfortunately never Elvis 😭 that's one of the things I loved so much about Elvis, how he showed his personality on stage, was so relaxed, had fun, so down to earth,and Gorgeous 🥰
Mike Was Good...But ...Elvis Is King .
In his area, Mike was the Best. Elvis could not do what Mike did. Mike could not do what Elvis did.
Both were extremely talented, perfectionists, and they loved what they did.
That`s why they were the best and second to none.
I'm not 100% sure Elvis couldn't do MJ. MJ was a better dancer and he wrote music. Vocally, I think Elvis could do most things Michael did but Michael couldn't deliver the power Elvis had. However, I think both Elvis and MJ would praise each other and downplay comparisons. They'd feel complimented.
It all started with Elvis, the fans made him king and Michael crowned him himself, see also the pictures. Elvis once got a crown from a fan in a concert and he wanted him to put it on but Elvis said that the kingship does not belong to him but to Jesus Christ. This can be heard on youtube.
@zs4855: Elvis Presley (there are audio recordings of this): "There is only one king and that is Jesus Christ"! Michael Jackson: "Why does everyone say Elvis is the king but no one says me king"!? There is film footage of this - does anyone have it?
I do love Michael’s music but I hate how he hurted Lisa, sorry Michael; ELVIS ISTHEKING nomatter what ❤️🔥
I agree that Michael was influenced/inspired by Elvis and developed his own style. Its like Elvis' exposure to gospel, R&B, blues and other genres when living in a black community influenced his style. Elvis openly talked about how the music in that community that inspired him. Elvis was a fan of Michael when he was a boy in Jackson 5 and wanted Lisa Marie to meet Michael.
@@beckylb8610 It was Lisa who wanted to meet Michael, Daddy made it happen for her.
@LadyCapricorn8 Wow. I heard it was Elvis because he was impressed by his talent. Good to know, thanks!

ELVIS inarrivabile UNICO the best all of the time Forever 👑🔝❤️⚡👋🇮🇹
Elvis did everything first ! MJ"s dance moves ,fashion, etc. were copied from Elvis .
It's true: Elvis Presley was already called the "King of Pop" in the 1960s! There are original reports of this from the 1960s. It is also true that some music historians say that Elvis Presley invented the pop sound. It is also true that Elvis' last Caddilac was sold a few weeks ago, with the title: "The last car of the ""King of Pop"" Elvis Presley"! In 2014 (?) an Elvis house was sold (not Graceland) with the title: "This is how the "King of Pop" lived - Elvis Presley!
ELVIS was /is the one and only, the original, there have been quite a few that have used some of his style, but Micheal Jackson didn’t just copy, he claimed a lot of Elvis’s art and claimed it as his own, then took it to the next level..Offensive…
Michael said he copied his dance moves from Elvis. He wanted to be Elvis so much that he married Elvis' daughter. I never saw Michael play a musical instrument. Elvis could play them all.Michael choreographed his stage move. Elvis just went with the rhythm. Elvis had 5o different singing voices. Michael only sang falsetto. Elvis actually was an 8th degree black belt..a true bad ass, military trained and an expert rifleman. Elvis served his country honorably and drove tanks, Michael could never have been accepted in the military, Michael has a tenth of Elvis' beauty, talent and charisma. he was not the highest paid actor of his time. Elvis was. Elvis holds the world record for concert attendance says Guiness. Sony says Elvis sold more than 4 billion recordings worldwide. Michael is not close.Elvis was so popular that both Democrat and Republicans wanted him as VP candidate, Never was Michael considered. He was too weird and an accused pedophile. Elvis was/is popular with every age group..not Michael.My age group and older despise him for the freak he turned himself into . 23 years after his death, Elvis was named Entertainer of the Century with his short career of22 years, He beat out the Beatles, Michael and Frank Sinatra whose careers were twice as long, and in spite of Michael's Thriller. I was alive during both men. Joe Esposito was Elvis' and Michael's road manager. He said Michael's crowd connection and reaction paled to Elvls. I concur, I lived through both men's popularity. Elvis became a god. Michael and Elizabeth Taylor came up with a plan to market Michael. They came up with calling him king of pop. Musical peers named Elvis King. AS Elvis says, Jesus is king, but Elvis is the King of Music. FYI, Elvis was so popular that the US government still credits Elvis as ending the polio epidemic. No other entertainer did such. Elvis is credited by Hungary as saving 50 million of Hungarians from starvation. Elvis hada a photographic memory and was double jointed..not Michael.
Incrível como as roupas deles se parecem. Nunca tinha reparado.
Great songs!💚☀️
La tua espressione composta e seria rivella quello che pensi di Elvis. i agree with you absolutely and Michael, like other musicians, came under the influence of Elvis. then he developed his own way of composing music and dance. They are 2 legends.
Traleto sem igual, humilde ❤Von única elves 👑
Michael Jackson used to write a lot of jealous rants about Elvis and was angry at the fact that he was known as the King.
He stated he didn’t see Elvis as an influence for him but clearly stole a lot of Elvis’ creativity/lifestyle and some of his dance moves… I think he was totally jealous of Elvis and wanted his success.
EDITED: The MJ fan in the replies is coping hard and denying real hard. We all know he stole a lot of Elvis’ stage presence and quirky traits and moves he had on stage. th-cam.com/video/-I2tsnuC0nE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=nAX6NuBRfQ61JT7- We all know he used Lisa his own daughter because that’s how much he was obsessed with Elvis. Lisa even stated he was a virgin in her new book. Just used her as a beard and to fix his own falling image.
@@for-house-stark No it’s not wishful thinking. I said he got some of his dance moves from Elvis such as the legendary tippy toe stance and the gliding walk but still standing in the same place… he stole it from him actually. The Beatles were not more successful than Elvis 🤣 they actually were influenced by him… they’re definitely more successful than MJ though… MJ isn’t even the best selling artists or solo artist of all time… you’re in every comment section. Leave.
@@for-house-stark There are actual pictures of Michael taking the same pictures as Elvis did doing the tip-toe stance. I’m not saying he made that dance up, but he didn’t do it the same way Fred Astaire did it, even the leg bent and camera angles were exactly similar to Elvis’ photoshoots and performances.
The glide dance Elvis did at his Tupelo concert was the exact same way MJ used to do it on stage…
MJ is NOT the best selling solo artist of all time. 😂 It’s Elvis. He sold over 1B… check your facts. The Beatles are the best selling artists of all time but they’re a group who cares… MJ hasn’t surpassed neither of them regardless. Wishful thinking on your end.
MJ had a complete obsession with Elvis he was obsessed with his fame and his daughter he “married” he didn’t even sleep with.

Two completely different sounds and times can't compare, both brilliant ❤
he first met mike and the Jackson 5 when they were very young and Lisa was a fan, they did meet and Elvis told them all to stay clean and stay away from drugs, as a side note also the osmands and gave them advice on stage clothes. after Elvis met the osmands they all got white jumpsuits like he had in 1970.
Micheal Jackson in later years seemed to have some resentment for not really exceeding Elvis as a cultural icon
Every one nicked from elvis .
Elvis is the true original! John Lennon: “before Elvis there was nothing”!
You are sooo right my Elvisfriend! Good show❤
1.6 Billion records sold.
The King!
Case closed
M. J. Not in. Elvis s league. Might have done a few good shows but never ever came near. Elvis. Elvis had the charisma m J didn't. Yes he's very much still in our hearts and minds.memories. Always will till we pass. Such a masterful entertainer. Man so kind generous.loving.gave so generously too. Just the sound of his voice. Wow there goes our hearts. Beautiful beautiful voice and such a very handsome man. M. J may have been king of pop.but. Elvis was. Is the king of music. All diff types. Ive only ever heard one song he was a bit off on. In all the songs he sang. Oh what a voice !! Thank you.so much. Truly amazing to hear him sing the last two. Hi from. Aus.
Pure delusion🙄
Hell he even married THE KING'S Daughter.
Elvis was versatile like no other singer. Elvis started the sexual and generational revolution, not the 60s generation.
Elvis appeared like a hurricane and swept the world off its feet.
Elvis gave the conservative post-WWII generations of young people something new, something of their own, something they never had.
There are so many things Elvis was the first to do. He had no TV to be inspired by. All his parents had was a radio.
I find it nonsensical to compare two utterly different artists.
Without Elvis no Michael Jackson.
Elvis is the King of Rock and Michael is the King of Pop. Both have their crowns and both are unique, All is well :)
ELVIS HAD THE VOICE. ELVIS WILL ALWAYS BE TOWERING OVER MICHAEL AS THE REAL DEAL. THE JACKSON THING WAS ALL A OUT BEING BLACK, EVEN THOUGH HE WAS ALWAYS TRYING TO BE WHITE. EVEN HIS "MARRIAGE" TO ELVIS'S DAUGHTER WAS TO TAKE A DIG AT ELVIS.
YES. MJ copied and was obsessed with Elvis
I like Jackson's music, but not the person. The fact that Michael never acknowledged Elvis says a lot.
MJ can't ever come close to Elvis.
Elvis is known in the world as "The King". There was no way for Michael Jackson to get his title because Elvis is kind a "music god" in music, so they were force to call Jackson "King of Pop".
I greatly dislike the way some Elvis & MJ fans will nastily pit these two against each other in order to prover their favorite is better. That being said, Michael Jackson was influenced by Elvis by the mere fact that he created content in modern music whose birth was Elvis Presley's paradigm shifting career (which can still be felt today) and MJ also clearly took other overt inspirations from Elvis artistically whether he liked to admit it or not. It doesn't take away from either one as artist, everyone has their favorites, and both made timeless hits.
There's a much better video out there where it shows some movement. It has the song, I've got a feeling in my Body.
I definitely think that he got some inspiration from Elvis, but some of those comparisons were ridiculous, and wasn't worth showing at all 😂
I agree

Elvis and Michael Jackson version
Some of Michael's moves were exactly the same as Elvis

Michael imitated, copied Elvis Presley. I find Michael Jackson to be disgusting, repulsive and dishonest for not giving credit to Elvis Presley.
I will, thank you
@for-house-stark good one, mate
Before you comment. Get your facts right
Elvis was crowned King by the media in the 50s. Which he didn't like to be called King
Elvis said there is only one King and that is Jesus Christ
Unlike Michael Jackson who crowned himself King
Why did he crowned himself King
Was Michael threaten that Elvis was better than him
They were both good at what they did but Elvis was the first and everyone that came after Elvis
Copied Elvis
Watch that video I suggested in my first comment
Then get back to me and tell me if Michael Jacksons moves were exactly like Elvis 👍
Elvis is The King of Music for sure, but in late 2003 The Daily Mail newspaper stated 'The Real King Of Pop' as Sir Cliff Richard. Both Prince and Cliff (and certainly Elvis) have much, much better voices than Michael Jackson. You could call Michael 'The King of Dancing' but never The King Of Singing Rock 'n' Roll or Pop, or any other music. No way!🥰
@@for-house-stark I agree MJ was a phenomenal performer but several MJ fans despite him being their eternal number 1 the way he complimented his singing and dancing perfectly to make awesome shows, admitted the singing capabilities were way in EP's favour.

@@for-house-stark😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
There's videos on TH-cam also comparing Elvis and m.j dance moves all identical.
Main differences: Michael really wanted to beat Elvis's record; Elvis wasn't trying to beat anyone's record but his own. Elvis was dubbed the King of Rock & Roll in 1956 by the media; Michael insisted that all media address him as the King of Pop. Majority of Elvis's dance moves were original that he came up with on his own except for in the movies where he worked with choreographers to do dance moves that fit into his own dance style. Michael always worked with choreographers; he didn't come up with any of his own dance moves. Elvis's dress style(s) were all his own; Michael incorporated a lot of Elvis dress styles into his performances. Elvis could sing basically any type of music from R&B to Rockabilly, Gospel, the Blues & country. Michael was predominantly a pop singer. Michael refused to admit that he took inspiration (in most ways) from Elvis. Elvis paid homage to Black artists that he drew inspiration from both in interviews & on stage.
Both had a massive amount of fans and both had fans that liked both artists. However, Elvis was the original. Thanks for the video; I'd not seen it before & thank you for your review.
Michael Jackson copied Elvis Presley from day one Elvis the one and only King
You can see Elvis' influence on Michael! Michael even copied some of Elvis" moves!! Proving to me that Elvis was and still is the original influencer to so many artists! Michael was dubbed the King of Pop, which was deserved! However, to me Elvis was and still is "The One and Only King of Music!! ❤🎉! Thank you so very much for your reaction!! ❤

You're trying to compare apples with oranges Elvis Presley was the king no matter what Michael Jackson was okay Brett Elvis was the king.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
MJ was such a copy cat... Bet Elvis would have had a smile really.
That looks like an obsession not just a fad on Jackson’s side, abit scary really.
Elvis was better in every way. I do love MJ, but he was a warm, milky cup of tea in comparison to Elvis's energised full-bodied rich roast... in sound and looks.
MJ was programmed to be great, Elvis was born great.
For me, always Elvis, he was a walking orgasm and endured all the extreme fame and pitfalls without any advice, any image consultants nor blueprint of how to navigate being the first global superstar. MJ claimed not to rate Elvis, at least Tito had the balls to admit it. Elvis even endorsed The Jackson 5 and encouraged people to go see them live. Elvis had morw class in his little finger than MJ had in his entire body. MJ emulated Elvis , no doubt about it and he'd never have criticised him. But remember the jealous and bitter Quincy Jones who bullied MJ over Billy Jean, said that Elvis was a racist, all because he didn’t get the conductor's job for Elvis's live shows...
For me, Elvis wins hand down, he was better, sexier, more natural and his vocals were stronger live. MJ had to mime half the time because he was a dancer & singer. Elvis was a singer, musician and producer who happened to dance beautifully and was the most beautiful man who ever lived. Can't beat that ❤
And then..just coincidentally of course,he also married Elvis's daughter.
ELVIS HAS LEFT THE BUILDING 💙 WAS SAID.
IN 1973 THE POPULATION WAS SMALLER. FOR T.V. WAS JUST BEGINNING STAGES OF CABLE. SO I.5 BILLION PEOPLE WAS THE ESTIMATE.. THERE WERE PEOPLE GATHERING TOGETHER IN FRIENDS HOME BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T HAVE THAT MUCH... AT ONE POINT M.J. WANTED TO BUY ELVIS'S
CATILOGE... NOW ELVIS CAME TO US IN FIFTY FOUR.. M.J. WASN'T EVEN BORN.. M.J. WAS BORN IN 1958.. I SEEN HIM TWICE AND ELVIS ONCE..NOW TAKE A LOOK WHO BOUGHT THE
RIGHTS OF THESE TWO.. OUR GREAT SHAQUEL O'NEIL ( BASKETBALL PLAYER ) HE HAS HIS HANDS IN ALOT OF DEAD PEOPLE. PLEASE LOOK IT UP.. BOTHMEN WERE GREAT.
Recuerden que. La familia. Queria. Que la mansion de MJ fuera una nueva Creceland y ser sepultado en la mansion.
HSta para eso fue una copia. Pero en blc y negro
Elvis, Michael Jackson ia very poor 2nd to the king.
Is there any modern performer that didn't do that ??
Elvis never proclaimed himself as a king. He said the king is Jesus Christ Michael Jackson proclaimed himself as a king because he’s jealous of Elvis and he’s a piece of crap.
Its very apparent that MJ copied much from Elvis. MJ was born in 1959, so he would have seen many Elvis films, and later saw Elvis on the Vegas stage. Michael left the Jackson 5 in 1984, just 7 years after Elvis left us. He definitely wanted to be the new KING..and yes, even married Lisa Marie..Michael was talented, no doubt, however, he did not have that SPECIAL charisma that Elvis had.. They each had much turmoil in their lives, and both died too young.
ELVIS WAS THE ORIGINAL
Obsessieve wow! Poor Lisa🤍
No one can be compared to Elvis....❤ Elvis is and always will be the best....The problem I have is that MJ fans are always comparing MJ to Elvis...😂..It's actually pathetic....

Yes, MJ did copy Elvis ! He copied his dance moves and his dress .Elvis did it all first 👑
@@for-house-stark i agree with you on those part with the pictures,but you must be blind not to see mj took what elvis did and
did his thing,yes he took stuff from fred astair and james brown,but its so easy to see some of those dance moves are clearly taken from elvis,i mean if you cant see that,i dont know what to tell you.
can you really believe mj on what inspired him? this is a man claiming to invent the moonwalk,when other black dancers did the same walk in the 1930's.
lastly check another vid showing elvis and mj dance moves,mostly vids not pictures,and tell me mj didnt take dance moves from elvis,just check man.
Without Quincy Jones, MJ would never have received this status like you, I’m not s MJ fan, Prince was better and more talented . Elvis still #1 with no peers.
Elvis never stole from Michael Jackson its the other way around. Elvis is not only the King of Rock 'N' Roll but the king of music. PS lets clear up another point in relation to Michael Jackson and Elvis. Elvis is the most successful solo artist ever with having sold 1. 5 billion records worldwide. Michael Jackson does not come close only the Beatles are on par with Elvis and they are a group. For further proof Michael stole from Elvis watch Jailhouse rock the dance moves .

IMHO You are being too kind regarding MJ if you read Lisa's book MJ remembered everything about her from yeard before even dowm to the dress she was wearing when they met years befor no, he was more than obsessed ... Think what you may or may not like about Presely she has even made comments on the subject.
Ok some of the costumes are close but remember Elvis was around before Michael was so you are going to see things that maybe look the same. As for the dance moves Elvis started it and others followed, including MJ. Im a big Elvis fan and tbh Elvis is bigger than jackson but Jackson was still a very good entertainer no doubt and hes videos are amazing but for me not a great singer , but as a star he was up there no doubt. I saw MJ in london live so i know I never got to see Elvis but you can tell he is a better singer , dancer probably not but Elvis didnt need to grab his crotch all the time like MJ did.
Michael certainly stole from Elvis, but he took the choreography quite a bit further. But he'd also looked up to Elvis most of his life, and even though I'm not a fan of Michael Jackson either, I think he was the only one with a similar format, so it's okay that he skewed a little for his great idol!
@for-house-stark He did not! He made the whole world listen to something, that had it's roots in black musik, and we love it! What is wrong with that? MJ made music with roots in white peoples popular music, but nobody's blaming him!
@for-house-stark So you don't think, that white people has any musical traditions???? Elvis played the music he had heard all his life, from the cradle, and trough all his childhood. Every Sunday, when he went to church, this was the music he heard, and learned to sing and play too. He loved that music, when his Mother sang the same songs as his lullaby, and when the whole family Presley sang at dusk on the porch in the warm summer evenings. How can you say, that it wasn't his music, and that he had no right to it???
@@for-house-stark You said he stole the music from black people, and I have heard so many vild argument about that subject, and Elvis beeing a racist during the years, that it makes me on guard. Music belongs to all of us so let's just enjoy it regardless who performance it!
@@for-house-stark if Elvis stole from black artists, then Michael stole from them too. Being born black didn't make Michael more *entitled to black music. That's like saying he stole from white people, when you cite that he was influenced by Bing Crosby 😂
That's like saying Beyoncé stole from white music by singing c&w! Or Ray Charles for making a C&W album. Where did it start and where does it end. Elvis always referred to his blues and gospel roots (his roots were embedded in black society), that's where he felt most comfortable. Every other black artist called him down home, even a brother. So why the hatred for Elvis. Make it make sense. LR said he made him bigger by covering Tutti Fruitti.
Another thing, Elvis sings Take My Hand Precious Lord, miles better than Beyoncé did, check her screaming, emotionless live version compared to his.
Michael denied he was inspired by Elvis I call BS He said his Inpirations were Fred Astaire James Brown -- Elvis introduced the Jackson 5 in Vegas telling the audience how great they were --- They had the same Cosume Deisigner -- Belew's work with Elvis led to other celebrities, including the Jacksons, seeking out his design services and many others -- but how could MJ copy everything Elvis wore???? to me makes no sense-- but that's my opinion and I LOVEEEEEEE ELVIS!!!!! LISA NEVER ONCE SAID ANYTHING LIKE THAT BELIEVE ME SHE WOULD OF - JACKSON SAID TO LISA HE WAS SCARED HE WOULD DIE LIKE HER DADDY I DO KNOW THAT -- I SAY THIS WITH TOTAL RESPECT OF ELVIS & MJ -- MJ WAS MY ERA -
MEMPHISROCKS1"TCB" "TLC"; There Is Only ONE MEGA GIANT ICON, ONE MEGA GIANT LEGEND And ONE MEGA GIANT LEGACY. All The' Other Artists Including Michael Jackson Are Just FOLLOWERS In The SHADOW'S Of THE' KING OF ALL MUSIC AND ENTERTAINMENT "HRM" KING ELVIS PRESLEY'S FOOT STEPS.
You have to check out the video "I GOT A FEELING IN MY BODY" that shows Michael copied Elvis dance moves!...Do it please!!!
Hypocrite.
@@for-house-stark My man check out the I GOT A FEELING VIDEO and u see how much little michael copied ELVIS...50 yrs later their still talking about Elvis!!..Michael is dead and gone!.
Beautiful words about Elvis , the King ,from the President of the USA ,Mr. Donald J Trump 👑 🇺🇸 🇺🇲
I don't want to say that M.J "took", I would say that he got Inspired by things like using a name simular to Elvis home, Graceland (Elvis) and Neverland (M.J:s home).
I think that Lisa Marie wanted the marriage to be real, but I don't think that ever M.J felt the same, I hope to be wrong about that, but it was over (divorce) very fast, it lasted a little over 1.5 years, or something...
Some of the things in this video is a huge bit of a stretch to me, like the charities, many celeberties does that, but yes Elvis gave more then any other celebrity ever did and not for a story in a newspaper.
Elvis is still the only celebrity that I know, that have a organisation that helps Homeless get back into society (Presley Charitable Foundation / Presley Place).
A thing that is real for anyone to see other then the marridge to Lisa Marie, it is that Elvis had a monkey (Scatter) and M.J also got a monkey (Bubbles), that is a strange animal to have for anyone, so why would M.J get just a monkey !!
I would never say that M.J stole from Elvis, he did like many others, he got inspiration from Elvis and surley from others, that is what you need to do.
If you don't then you are not going to stay at the top, but you also need to get your own special style...
And this coming from mj biggest fan boy.look up the word hypocrite.
Lisa said that multiple times that their marriage was real and they had a relationship after the divorce
@@julianmiguel6508 I think that she wanted it to be real and also wanted to rescue him. I hope to be wrong, but I really doubt that he wanted it because he truly loved her. He had his children with another woman very soon after the divorce...
Elvis was one of a kind, he had it all. MJ was under such pressure from his abusive dad, and was a disturbed teen and man. It was obvious he copied so much from Elvis including dressing like him, yet MJ denied it. He even married Elvis daughter, Lisa Marie. Lisa said in everyday life Michael used his real voice, not the high boyish voice. Elvis came by his music organically since he was a child. He did it because he loved singing and entertaining people.
@@for-house-stark yes some comparisons are ridiculous, even laughable, but MJ definitely got some inspiration from Elvis, even though he would never admit it, and I'm a MJ fan , seen him in concert, had all his DVDs know a lot about him, but Elvis still has my heart and soul ❤️
@@for-house-stark Elvis was the first to become the biggest star on the planet, the whole package of Elvis is what inspired MJ, he was fascinated with his star power and how idolized he was, lots of reasons, none of his so called inspirations were anywhere near as big as Elvis became, he wanted the exact same for himself, and more or less got what he wanted to an extent, I wouldn't say he was musically inspired by Elvis, more the showmanship x
@@for-house-stark ok whatever way you see it, I know all about MJ and his achievements, you don't need to tell me , you see it how you want, and I will do the same 🙂, Thank you x
@for-house-stark oh right, you were there with MJ ,you were reading his mind, you were a fly on the wall 🤔
@for-house-stark 😂😂😂😂 I've done all the research too, but I really don't think you have researched Elvis, where as I have researched both 🙂🙂, end of, I have more important things to waste my energy on, Goodnight x
bandages on michael fingers match on elvis-fingers, elvis did at all this years before michael, even name his home neverland as elvis is graceland
There will never be anyone ever as good as Elvis Elvis is the greatest entertainer we will ever see as long as this planet still rotates. Michael Jackson is a wannabe. He was jealous and I’m sick of his ass.
MJ Wasnt in any type of military . Elvis home was Graceland. What was MJ called.?
You do not need to be a fan to copy and he did copy
I got a feeling in my body
Elvis vs Michael jackson is een video op TH-cam zie je beelden van dat MJ ELV1S zeker weten kopieerde met dans moves etc
I know that Michael's home Neverland is near one of Elvis's homes.
@for-house-stark It was not Neverland but the last home of Michael Jackson where he passed away was just few steps away from the home owned by Elvis Presley in the Holmby Hills!
@@for-house-starkyour embarrassing yourself, but keep going, it's so funny.
Micheal studied all the greatest entertainers to become the greatest of his time .
Elvis is the greatest thing to happen to music ever , Michael was the greatest entertainer of his time , after Elvis
Michael had so many talents that Elvis didn't come close to possessing and Elvis was notorious for ripping off everything he could from black artists. Why don't you make a video about how Elvis stole from Jackie Wilson, Big Mama Thornton, and Jesse Belvin, for starters?
Let’s set the record straight: Elvis didn’t steal music, and comparing him to Michael Jackson doesn’t hold up. Take “Hound Dog” as an example-Big Mama Thornton didn’t write it; Leiber and Stoller did. Elvis took the song, gave it his own style, and turned it into a global hit. That’s what Elvis did: he didn’t just perform songs; he transformed them into timeless classics.
Even decades after his death, Elvis is still a cultural icon, with new movies like Elvis (2022) and millions visiting Graceland every year. He mastered multiple genres-rock, pop, gospel, blues, and country-earning places in three different Halls of Fame. Michael Jackson dominated pop, but he didn’t have the versatility or range that Elvis did.
Elvis also broke cultural barriers, introducing rhythm and blues to mainstream audiences in a segregated America. He always gave credit to the Black artists who inspired him and brought their music to a global stage, opening doors for countless others.
Elvis wasn’t just an artist; he was a cultural phenomenon. Michael Jackson was great, but his impact doesn’t come close to what Elvis achieved. That’s why, even today, Elvis remains The King.
The video you're reacting to is stupid. Most of the comparisons weren't even that similar and or they took inspiration from the same places. MJ has stated repeatedly that his musical inspirations were James Brown, Jackie Wilson, Fred Astaire, Sammy Davis Jr., And Motown. Could he have been inspired by Elvis career wise? Sure. Were some of the clothes similar? Some but most of them were far fetch. I mean MJ and Elvis both wearing red and black suit? Wearing Gold clothes? Come on, that's to copying that's just show business.
he should have showned the vid showing of elvis and mj dance moves,to really show the similarities,pictures aint good enough,but the vid im talking about,you can clearly see elvis had influnce mj's dance moves without a doubt.
