Elvis Presley - A Boy From Tupelo (Short Film) 

I agree...it's like the world wanted something from him...there are pics where he looks as if he wears the world on his shoulders...Col. Tom Parker was no exception...he drove Elvis to his grave.

I AGREE... ALSO HIS WRITERS GETTING 50% IS NOT EVEN HEARD OF. THEY EVEN SAID THEY STUDIED HIM AND THEY WAY HE EXPRESSED HIMSELF IS HOW ALOT SONGS WRITTEN. ONE OF THE WRITERS SAID WHEN ELVIS WAS UPSET ABOUT M.L.K. THEY SAT IN A SMALL ROOM AND ELVIS WAS EXPRESSING HIMSELF WHY CAN'T WE WALK TOGETHER ARM IN ARM , THIS WORLD IS IN TOO MUCH PAIN. HE SAID ELVIS SHOULD OF GOT CREDIT FOR IT. BUT YOU DON'T SEE THAT INTERVIEW ANYMORE. THE MAN GOT USED. GOD BLESS HIM FOR INTERNITY ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️

Heavens to Murgatroyd white world 🌎

Most handsome person God ever gave to us and yes Elvis has now opened his heart and his love of his fans and his fans and now with great love we are all in love with our precious Elvis Such a sweet kind and loving person God Bless you Elvis forever and always AMEN

​@@deborahcruse8542 Thank you

He also had sex with underage girls which included Priscilla.

How would you know? Do you?

His whole life! They say pictures and movies didn't do him justice! He was so much more in person *

You can say that again….. So tell me are you a fan of Elvis..?

Как трогательно 😢❤

I totally understand!! I was 22 when he left us and felt the same grief!! I will always love and miss that gorgeous man!! He had so much more to give. If he wouldn’t have been so sick and so addicted to all of those prescription drugs! 😢

Tes Cruz - - same here

I love that he still has loyal fans. Did you see the new Elvis movie?

Me too I’m 76, love him so much!

@@joannemcclure3546 birds of the same feather flock together. Cheers!

@@tescruz7801 I love Elvis since child. I miss him everyday. I will love him forever 💕⚡⚡⚡

You know my parents love 💗 Elvis as well, and so do I. So tell me are you a fan of Elvis..?

really admire her passing on her most precious treasure and heritage to you. You must treasure it forever ❤️⚡⚡⚡

@@davenicholas5796 I answered a question exactly like yours and it turned out that the person wanted to take advantage of my personal data/info. Blessings 🙏

@@jacobedecruz5350 I don’t understand

@@davenicholas5796 the person commented on my comment and asked if I was Elvis fan. That's what I said. It was a spam / scam. Just be careful talking to people you are not acquainted with. She already stated that she is Elvis fan since childhood

Hello Brenda, How are you doing?

forgotten

forgotten

@@waterkant999 Obviously not. WE are still talking about him, aren't we?

He will never die.

@@waterkant999 NEVER forgotten. YOU are forgotten

Same as well! So tell me are you a fan of Elvis..?

@@davenicholas5796 Gonna let you figure that one out on your own.

@@DebH. okay! How are you doing? Hope you’re having a wonderful day?

You’re absolutely right! So tell me are you a fan of Elvis..?

He was born with that gift 💝 there’s something special about him that people don’t see. So tell me are you a fan of Elvis..?

You can say that again, so tell me are you a fan of Elvis..?

I am sorry for your loss

Om

Yeeess!

He had the right talent at the right time. Plus he wasn’t a smart ass.

Yes yes

With the right name too. i mean, imagine if his name was john, ben, mike, or ken??? didnt think so...

We all missed him as well and he’ll forever be in our memories, I grew up with my parents listening to his songs. So tell me are you a fan of Elvis..?

I was 17 and I remember very well at night when it came over the radio, “Elvis Presley has died” it was shocking but I didn’t know enough to know ge was having such hardships. It’s a sad story and I don’t quite understand why his dad didn’t fight more fore him. I understand Elvis was a grown man but since he felt helpless against that evil crook Parker, seems loved ones would have stood with him to fight. I know they didn’t know what to do but lawyers step in and fight for you. Just thank GOD Pricilla was a strong willed person because it seems she was the strength behind something legally being done to that maggot Parker

Typos are For and he up there and others typo words up there

@@kathydoyle5134 Good morning Kathy ( 7.16 am in Thailand )

For some reason, Elvis spelled his middle name "Aron." Maybe in memorial of his twin Jesse Garon.

Hello Kathy, How are you doing?

Too bad the old days have to disappear

It's Disgraceful how "They'll" Wipe Away OUR American History, for the Love of $$.

How awful to demolish something that was bought by Elvis for a f..king car park is just sacrilege.

No freaking way. The pool thing pisses me off so bad 😡😢

@@joanie3452 i’ve always been told it was a YMCA camp in fact they still own the property they sold part of it to Kroger for the new shopping center which has been really awesome and they are now building an actual YMCA location at the ruins of the firmer camp. The camp had been abandoned for decades and the pool I think for even longer, I don’t think there was much left of the pool when they decided to reinvent the whole area. This area didn’t have any grocery stores or similar businesses for miles but neighborhoods were starting to move in so it was keep the crumbling pool or bring some community to this area.

True.

Same as well! So tell me are you a fan of Elvis…?

Same as well! He’ll always live in our memories, he’s my favorite musician and I grew up listening to his music 🎶 with my parents they loved 🥰 him so much…. So tell me are you fan of Elvis..?

There is Bob Joyce.💖

I said you'll be another man that won't look like Elvis there will be this cuz he was a good looking man doesn't mean there's not going to be another one this world hasn't came to me in yet there could be one in the year 2033 you really don't know Elvis was a good looking man yes but there's other good-looking men out there too and singers they could sing too I'm a damn good looking woman doesn't mean I'm bragging and saying I'm the best looking woman out there which I am but I don't go around bragging about it

@@olliedavis6638 love it well said.😂😂😂😂

@@olliedavis6638 Never happen. Only one Elvis

@@dianagraham8093 You've got to be joking!! There's only one Elvis

This entire statement makes no real sense lol 😄

Agreed. 100 percent.

Why should a " King" dye his hair?

Elvis was more a boy than a man.

@@JuanLopez-ef5pr because his hair was brown and he wanted it black.

Elvis is my Crawfish , my candy icecream, my life, and my love.

You’re absolutely right, so tell me are you a fan of Elvis..?

I said the same about Prince. Could you imagine anybody daring to take the stage after him?!

@@majorkade Yes, ELVIS!

@@ihatechange Alright, Loretta, you're a fan! I get it. Come to Asheville and we can drink beer and discuss Elvis, Prince, etc.. Will put you on my podcast! Have you been to Tupelo? Surely Graceland.

You may be one of very few that has my name. Lol. I was named after my paternal grandfather, Laurent.

@@lothibx I know what you mean. I was named after my grandmother, Irene and her sister, Laura, my aunt was Laurene. I am the only family member who has Laurene for a first name. My granddaughter is Katlin Laurene .

Yes

I am most surprised when i found out my late mother who didn’t speak English, liked Elvis songs & movies.

Best description so far 🙌⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡

You can say that again Bridget, so tell me are you a fan of Elvis..?

Oh i most definitely am , was brought up on him my mum loved him ❤️ so passed it on to me luckily ☺️

@@bridgetmartin1 good to hear that! Nice smile you got there on your profile picture…

@@bridgetmartin1 I would like to get to know you better if you don’t mind? Where are you originally from? And where do you currently live?

My parents loved 🥰 him as well, and he’s my favorite musician.. so tell me are you a fan of Elvis..?

Brenda Booher. Never.

So true

Brenda Booher there will never be another culture vulture like elvis

Look up here on YT "hold my hand by Pastor Bob Joyce" and tell me who do you hear...?

Fun Fact: The only reason Elvis became famous was because he stole music from Ella Fitzgerald and made it sound a little bit like rock than gospel. RIP Mrs. Ella Fitzgerald !!

​@@d.estinys.life_ Fun fact.. You are an ignorant nobody

​@@d.estinys.life_yea he remade people music but honestly who doesn't I wish people wouldn't be so judgemental cause you don't have to look or listen what do people gain from tearing others down that never made sense to me may God come into the hearts of mean spirited people and teach them genuine love kindness and support for their brothers and sisters 🤍🙏🏽

@@d.estinys.life_ So not a fun fact! Elvis worked his nuts off to become famous, drew on many musical influences to meld into his own vocals and performances. He was a whirlwind, a young kid with a minus 10 start in life (as were many others - I take that on board) however he shook up the music world (dance moves, super magnetic looks, unique vocals) he influenced and changed many that followed into the music we all listen to today. Love listening to Ella's music by the way.

No there will not be anyone like him☁😞☁☁☁☁😞☁ ☁💧☁☁☁☁💧☁ 🌂🌂😞😞😞😞🌂🌂 🌂😞🌂🌂🌂🌂😞🌂 I feel so sad Good Night 💤🌙 😊 Sweet Dream 🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠

Watch Bob Joyce

Jimmy Jennings nothing original about elvis he’s a culture vulture like many.

@@dannyanime3468 nothing original to you about Elvis, when will you liberals learn your opinion isn't the dominating factor when you're up against millions of others.

R I P Elvis... We miss You 🌹

There was a lot of music before Elvis, you need to start listening to other artists and not just Elvis.

@@tonyclapson6696 he allowed black music to be recognized and nobody seen anybody like him.

@@tonyclapson6696 81

@@tonyclapson6696 Very true but they werent PRETTY ENOUGH or the RIGHT COLOR. If Elvis had looked like Roy Orbison or Buddy Holly. You wouldnt hear a squeak about him now. His success was 75% looks and 25% talent. Little Richard blows him away for pure Rock and Roll. But of course he is black. So no go son. He got ripped off like nobody. While Elvis got more than he deserved. It was a reflection of the times. Thats why I will always respect artists like the Beatles.and Elton John alot more. You didnt buy their music because they were pretty . You bought it because they were talented.

@@fender1000100 You clearly are tone deaf and blind if you think Elvis had no talent. Did any of the artists you mentioned ever make full length motion pictures as the lead role/star? Cause Elvis sure did. Did they also sing the Lord's praises at anytime in their careers? Cause you guessed it, Elvis did. His Gospel albums are still selling today. It's even possible someone is buying one right now from their iPhone on the same block or area you live in.

Just like you love your mama. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing this 😊

My mother always told us about how much Elvis loved his mother she like that about him.

Elvis is your Daddy? Lol

He loved minors too

Wooly Highlander Actually, you can say his last few YEARS. The physical decline can be seen in ‘74 and onward and based on the observations of those close to Elvis, I believe there was a psychological decline for some time. A person doesn’t crash and burn at age 42 like Elvis did without some long-term deep seated emotional issues.

Wooly Highlander I think that if Linda had still been there, he wouldn't have died. She would have checked in on him.

John Monroe Well, I think she would have delayed it but Elvis (it seems) was checking out. Besides, what kind of relationship was that for Linda? Hardly a healthy one.

@@danc3693 Those deep seated issues were called prescription drugs. Elvis became an addict. Sure we can blame the people prescribing these drugs, yet Elvis had freedom of choice and he chose to continue taking them. The sad thing is, the public wanted Elvis to stay the way he was when he first became famous. Elvis tho was getting older and with age with All humans comes a decline in health and energy levels. Elvis took the drugs to keep on top. Yet the toll caught up with him. It takes a lot for an addict to seek help, the drugs become the norm. I believe the breakup of his marriage was the begining of the end for Elvis and his career. Yet he made his mark on the world, that, can never be erased, he touched peoples lives and people loved him for that. I keep reading in the comments, "we need another Elvis", or " there will never be another Elvis". I find these statements to be weird. Ofcourse there will never be another Elvis. People need only cherish the Elvis that was and if he touched peoples lives and hearts with his music, then there is no better legacy. Peace and blessings too you.

D. All good statements I mostly agree with; however, the deep seated issues were not prescription drugs but the feelings, issues inside of Elvis that drove him those drugs. He was escaping and self medicating - to get away from something. Addiction recovery programs address the issues behind the self medicating behavior.

The most beautiful man inside and out , Elvis, his voice pure magic

Yes. One and Only. What a force of Nature. Musical Shaman. Just watching this short but wonderful film revealed that mystical force only he had.

He might not be a songwriter but he had another powers that helped him be the king!!

Same age here, same memories, same loss... what a wonderful time we lived in!

He did have an identical twin brother, Jesse Garon Presley, who died prematurely.

I am77 and remember the impact on me he made when I first heard him coming over radio Luxembourg one night ,( must have been in1955 )

We were kids and everyone seems to remember where they were when they heard that Elvis had died.

gutenbird ..I know where I was when Elvis died jamming out to Pink Floyd

Hello sharon, how’re you doing ?!
