That particular jumpsuit Elvis requested to be made for the Aloha From Hawaii television special. He wanted a jumpsuit that said America. Elvis was very patriotic and knew the special would be seen worldwide via satellite and wanted to represent. That is why the jumpsuit features the American Eagle and is done in Red, White and Blue. TCB⚡️
That was with the full-size cape. I heard it was about 75 lb. The suit alone is about 25 lbs. The smaller cape is about 25 lbs as well, I believe. Crazy how much handwork was put into every suit.
This jumpsuit cost over 100k in today’s money. Some of them weighed 30pds. Elvis had a walk out robe made for Muhammad Ali. It was heavy and gaudy. lol Later in this concert he’s throwing the belt and cape in the crowd. How much are those worth? lol.
U need to watch his performance back in His home town ( after he became famous right after) He went back to his home in Tupelo , Miss. 1956 . You should watch that one.
YES thank you mark lol "it looks like some girl in the 5th grade made it at school" TF is he even talking about he should just stop doing elvis it's obvious he's just using him for clicks & engagement that has become a real problem with a lot of reactors lately its obvious they really aren't into elvis but continue to use him
@@MarkRogersVOCFB you can't see the above comment i left? lol he probably didn't appreciate what i had to say & deleted it but i said i really appreciate your comment that it was perfectly explained but i also said: too bad it'll be wasted on this guy cause he doesn't care he's just using elvis for clicks & engagement he really isn't interested in anything actually informative
2 things about this video. 1-if you think back when Elvis first started everyone criticized him. He was way ahead of his time. They way he sang mostly the way he moved. No one had ever moved like that and in those days it was considered vulgar. He could have conformed and do the same as all the other entertainers but instead he did it his way and laid down a whole new road for the future entertainers. Go back and pull up his old black and white TV specials you'll see the "stinky leg". 2- the reason for the jumpsuits is because he would always rip his pants. There is a video about the people that made and designed them. Especially the one he wore in the hawaii soecial..
You are super cute! I appreciate your complete honesty 👍 I don't think people actually were inspired to wear what Elvis wore cuz, come on, only ELVIS could pull off wearing what he was wearing 😎 But a lot of people were inspired to be like him💖
Musically, if the first part of the song's arrangement was as big and powerful as the last part, then there'd be no contrast, no emotional build-up, nothing to make the ending of the song drive the message home. It's called "dynamics", an important part of songwriting and performance that helps create a work of art that engages the listener's emotions at various levels and takes the listener on a journey from start to finish.
great comment!! its too bad it'll be lost on dude which is fine not everyone is gonna love elvis its hard for me to wrap my head around but whatever but what i do have a problem with.. its obvious he really doesn't care & is just using elvis for clicks & engagement i hate that
You ALWAYS have something negative to say about Elvis or his singing. You are not LISTENING to Elvis for his voice, for what he can do with it. No matter what he sings. Songs are different. Some slow, some fast, sad, etc. Elvis will portray that in every song he sings. So HE, does not have a problem of any kind. Nothing is fake that he wears. His rings costs thousands of dollars and yet he'd take one off and give it to someone at his Vegas shows or wherever he felt like it. He did it out of kindness, not to show off. Do yourself a big favor and watch some of his Documentaries. You'd learn a lot.
I have loved this man since I was 2 years old. When I watched the 68 comeback special, I was hooked. I love music and listen to every genre. However, nobody has ever come close to what this man represented. He was such a humble, humorous, generous, HANDSOME!!!!, compassionate, respected, talented, admired, passionate man. His talent is unmatched TO THIS DAY!!! The greatest entertainer to ever live. The jewelry is real!! He had his own jeweler and designed most of it himself. He would give a lot of his jewelry away to fans. His jumpsuits were suede and leather. The stones are rhinestones and the jumpsuits and cape weighed 80+ pounds. Elvis was 6 feet tall. Check out Polk Salad Annie or Suspicions Minds. He is forever loved by millions and lives in our hearts. It's nice to see the younger generations keeping his music alive. Keep up the good work!!
Elvis helped coordinate the Osmond jumpsuits. you can see the jumpsuits in their video called yo-yo. Elvis told his designer to do jumpsuits for each one of them. He told them they needed to get away from dress slacks and casual collar shirts and business pants. And the did.
That jump suit he wore that night weighed 70 pounds..So because of the lights ,the weight of his clothes n entertainment is why this man was always sweating..It was said by Elvis himself ,any time he performed he would lose five to eight pounds....
I'm amazed if I'm honest a lot of young people like yourself have taken a liking to Elvis and have gone to his home in Memphis. Ones that are into Rap and today's music, You would never think would become Elvis Fans but they have.
Always wondered why Elvis closed his eyes singing.. I've learned now.. He had blue eyes.. I have green eyes.. the lighter your eyes are the more sensitive to light they are.. If he had had brown eyes.. we might have seen his eyes all the time.. but the lights in his face made him have to close his eyes. It hurt his eyes.. I understand being a green eyed woman.. lights hurt my eyes. My mother and sister who are brown eyed never had this problem.
Just to let you know this is a Frank Sinatra song..Frankie did it his way.. Bon Jovi in a song talks about Frankie doing it his way. just a great song and Elvis did every cover amazingly
At this time he owned 2 jet planes and in the near future was going to own 3 more. He was buying his own aircraft line. I can almost guarantee you this his real gold, even on his fingers!!! He bought a mansion at 22. Yes, he bought his mansion estate Graceland at 22 years old. Yes, it was real too--a real mansion. LOL!!!!!!!!!
People who did not know Elvis call the costumes "jumpsuits" when in fact they were designed after karate robes, which provided loose movement on stage. This suit threw Elvis bak about $25k, (about 100k in 2024 money) special made with the American Patriotic theme (eagle, etc.) Amazing how iconic Elvis was and no young people know anything about his history. Your culture was conditiomed to have a 10 minute attention span.
It's a stage costume, no one was walking around on the streets wearing that. If you ever react to early videos from David Bowie or Queen you'll see fashion styles that are even more outrageous.
The song is beautiful start to finish. Yes, people's brain cells are dying because they can't focus. That's pathetic. Be better than that. Some of Elvis' best songs are ballads.
These jumpsuits were sometimes over 75 pds or more in weight…you are right ..u don’t wanna wear it. It’s heavy. His jewelry is for real…watch his jewellers video
I saw that Suit and Cape at Bendigo museum a cpl of yrs ago im Australia and its a fine work of art its extremely beautiful, we need to do it YHWH'S way not our way if we did it YHWH'S way we wouldn't die,
No I'm not a Jehovah's Witness however I was bought up in there faith I'm 58 now and I was around 16rs of age when I left however this does not change the fact that YHWH is the Almighty and YESHUA (Jesus Christ ) is the messiah the one whom was approved by YHWH,it's a fact if mankind did it the way YHWH intended then he wouldn't of had to send his only begotten for the saviour of mankind,we lost everlasting life through a perfect man Adam who sinned so the only way mankind can come back into perfection is through another perfect man that didn't sin YESHUA-JESUS CHRIST,All these trinitarians do not understand the importance of what Jesus did they all say I believe I believe but they don't believe when Jesus states himself he has a God and Jesus been a jew there God his God is YHWH IT DOESNT GET ANYMORE SIMPLER THAN THAT
@@darrenkoglin3423 after Armageddon Elvis and his family will be resurrected on a paradise earth and the same for our relatives and friends that have died.
This is what the scriptures state that the righteous shall possess the earth and dwell upon it forever,u have all these so calked Christians believe in heaven and he'll doctrine for starters if u go to he'll arnt u still gaining everlasting life however in hell but didn't jesus teach the only way to gain everlasting life is through him because he is the one approved by his father,foesnt the scriptures also show us there will be those who rule with Jesus over the kingdom for the 1000yr,so u think if everyone is in either heaven or he'll who is Jesus and the appointment ones ruling over if every one is in heaven or hell
Ok your wild .... What he paid for a jump suit ppl don't make in a year...Do u think he walks around with his jump suits?? No he doesn't...He has them made for entertainment purposes
I wish to make an observation, you state you have a short attention span and that most of your generation do also. Some things in life take time, observation and study to figure out....whether its music, philosophy, mathematics, science etc etc......the need for something fast paced and flashy to continually stimulate your brain to "think, learn and react" seems to point out lack of ability to concentrate beyond immediate gratification. If all of your generation have this short attention span the future may be bleak for us all. Einstein took over 8 years to develop his theory of relativity, and it was not done with a flashy fast paced inspiration...it was hard mental work and concentration. It took 10 years for Percy Spencer to develop the microwave oven. If he had a short attention span it would have never been created.

THATS RIGHT.. LETS NOT FORGET THE GOLD EAGLE.. AND THEY TOOK HOURS TO MAKE. THE WEIGHT STARTED AT 25 POUNDS TO 75 lbs. 🕊
these where stage costumes, his street clothes where outstanding he was a trend setter in fashion in the 50's 60's and 70's!
On one of my trips to Graceland I was told that this suit including the belt weighted over 100 pounds
That was with the full-size cape. I heard it was about 75 lb. The suit alone is about 25 lbs. The smaller cape is about 25 lbs as well, I believe. Crazy how much handwork was put into every suit.

No only Elvis made these outfits as his style who knows why, it works ! Don’t care if it’s fake, and no we didn’t want to wear them lol
That’s the best jump suite he has. It’s American.with Eagles. At the end he puts the cape on and the Eagle is beautiful.
No one ever wore those jumpsuits it’s strictly Elvis’s style and only his
U need to watch his performance back in His home town ( after he became famous right after) He went back to his home in Tupelo , Miss. 1956 . You should watch that one.
You're not supposed to wear it. No one would want you to wear it. Only Elvis can wear that. It looks great.
YES
thank you mark

Back then, his jumpsuits were iconic. Style was very different in the 70s😊

Watch the concert, you can get a better look at it. It is beautiful under the bright lights.

just a small correction
his jumpsuits were not suede or leather
they were made from the same material they use for ice skating costumes:)
