You can love your homeland despite it's past, you can love your country despite her flaws, and you can love your neighbors as brothers despite your differences, without one diminishing another in the slightest
You have just witnessed the GREATEST ENTERTAINER THE WORLD WILL EVER SEE!!!!! No auto-tune no pitch correction just PURE PERFECTION!! No one will ever come close to Elvis the power the passion the emotion. A gift to us all from GOD himself. Long live the KING.
Gotta listen to more Elvis. Nobody had more stage presence, nobody had more charisma or talent. And just look at him. Most handsome man that ever lived. Both women and men loved him.
See, Elvis is eternal, other singers are not. His charisma and presence are unmatched in modern history. More than 750,000 people visit his estate in Graceland. He passed away 40 years ago and still his magnetism is passed on to generations.
You are right…this is history. Elvis bringing people together. His passion and soul united people. Elvis would love seeing young people, 46 years after his death, listening to him sing and entertain them.
one of the GREATEST performances of one of the GREATEST performers to ever grace the stage in America!!! Elvis is one of the few performers who lives up to hype. Many people who haven’t experienced him say, “Yeah right” until they actually experience him! He was THAT good!!!
The performance is known as " American Trilogy ", 3 traditional US songs " Dixieland " a homage to his southern roots, " All my trials " accredited as being a Black " Spiritual " song, and " Battle Hymn of the Republic " , a song originally from the south, that was adapted by Union soldiers during the Civil War ... Elvis saw this as a way of uniting people through his music ..
See ...no autotune needed....this is just pure talent right here....live around the world for the verry first time ever...elvis will for ever be the king off music
Makes me cry to listen to him. Miss him so much. Nobody ever came close to him as a singer. He had the whole package. Looks and all. God gave us 42 years of bliss having him on earth. 💖💖💖💖💖💖
Dixieland that was the first performance that was sent via satellite all around the world !! The greatest entertainer ever !! I was blessed to see him every time he was in Las Vegas !!
I live in the UK and am a massive Elvis fan and it's so good seeing you guys find him. The GOAT in my opinion. And btw, thank you for all your reactions.
Greatest concert ever it was broadcast live at midnight across the world and over 1 billion people watched . My parents let my siblings and I stay up to watch it.
thanks for posting. when i was 14, we saw his last concert in lincoln, ne. what a voice, the first true super star. we would hear this song on the radio .. what a time.
Play the video until the end!! He throws his belt into the audience after this song, and then his cape after "Can't Help Falling In Love". It just reveals more to his legacy :)
Over 1.6 BILLION people around the world watched this live concert on TV--more than those who watched the first man walk on the moon four years earlier in 1969!
Don , that is a staggering statistic , never knew that was the audience figure , but that is the draw , the sheer star power the man had and that was before any of the modern tech we have today such as YT , cannot think of one so called " star "of today that would pull in that kind of audience .
I was 10 yrs old when this concert special was aired and my parents let me stay up late to watch it...was such a huge Elvis Fan as a kid, had all his albums and tons of 45's...he was such an amazing talent...still a fan today!
Elvis died on August 16, 1977 at the age of 42. I was 13 at the time. I'll never forget it. His funeral was the largest I'd ever seen in my life. (Televised, of course.) Outside his home at Graceland was overflowing with devastated fans. My mother loved him, as did billions of people. I loved him and even now, my own grown children love him. He'll never be forgotten. He had one daughter, Lisa Marie Presley. He also has a few grandchildren. Lisa also had a son that she said looked just like him, who passed away at the age of 27 or 28. (Incidentally, the ring cost Elvis $40K to have made...it sold at auction for $204K.) He had given it to a band member though before that. Thank you for reviewing that. I thought it was one of his greatest performances.
Great reaction to the King! Please react to "Tryin' to Get to You" from his 1968 Comeback Special, and "Suspicious Minds" live in Las Vegas 1970. You will see different sides of Elvis and his versatility! Thanks.👑
It's a beautiful piece, Elvis did a remarkable job, he puts his heart and soul into every performance. I love the American triology, his band is fantastic as well. He had his main band and then around 1970 added a 26-piece Orchestra ( No you didn't get blocked😁)
The KING was called the KING for a reason. He was the greatest performer of all time and left all others in the dust. He was the FIRST to do music videos. He was the FIRST to do movies. Yeah, Frank Sinatra did it but not AS Frank Senatra ... Elvis did his movies AS himself and those were the original music videos. He was KING of TV too. The first worldwide satellite cable broadcast back in the day before the internet....he performed in front of a BILLION people. Nobody has come close. He was, is and will always be THE KING!
This is my favourite Elvis song I always get emotional when I watch Elvis please react to You gave me a Mountain and How Great Though Art Love 💕 from Denise in Yorkshire England 🏴🕺🏻🕺🏻👑👑👑👍💕👋.
The first three so far? Welcome then. Wow, you have fallen into an incredible rabbit hole. Glad. you reaction To Elvis who is the most wide range entertainer ever.
Elvis was the WHOLE package 📦! Elvis put three songs together which he called: American Trilogy. He had a singing voice of almost three octaves (more than most). That ring had a value of about $30,000.00 in 1973. That jumpsuit costed Elvis $240,000.00 in 1973. Elvis at his peak of power and majesty!
One of my favourite songs by Elvis, in front of a huge audience …. This was the very first live concert that was beamed across the world to 36 countries via satellite. I watched it in New Zealand, & he was just magnificent. Every performance was stunning, & although he had been told not to move/dance as being viewed by so many different cultures & religions, he still managed to get some of his trademark playfulness in & some ad libbing along the way.
A great performance from Elvis one of his best gives me chills everytime I hear it that ring was supposed to be 8 carats to think 4 years later he would be gone but he left us with such a legacy thank you safe 😷✌
Yes I saw it alright this is my favourite Elvis song I just love this he really puts his heart ❤️ and soul into all his songs the greatest entertainer that ever lived Love from Denise in Yorkshire England 🏴👑👑👑👑👑🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻🎸🎸🎸🙏🙏please react to Let us Pray from his film Change of Habit 🙏🙏🙏
Subscribed -- thank you for helping carry the torch of truth and love ... Elvis was a legend and would be the most influential man alive if he were alive today. As BB King said once it was obvious Elvis meant it "and that's why people like myself liked him." BB King a great blues legend knew best.
Awesome. Remember that so very well on TV. You could tell he was very nervous at first but it was only a minute and he was into it and he rocked it. The rings are awesome and if you watch the concert many people tried to pull them off his fingers. A great & historic concert! Thanks for reacting.
Notice at 1:07 as Elvis watches the Stamps Quartet, or more specifically the bass singer on the right, JD Sumner, cupping his hand over his ear to hear himself as he dredges the basement of the place for those notes he's singing, that little twinkle in Elvis' eye, that little smile playing about his lips. Elvis himself could sing pretty low when he wanted to, but JD's ability to hit notes that Elvis could only reach on a piano was like a constant running joke between the two long-time friends. On videos of practice and jam sessions, you can see Elvis just shaking his head and laughing at this force of nature that was Mr JD Sumner!
FYI - American Trilogy is about the Civil War. The first part " Dixie Land " was in reference to the South. The Glory Hallelujah was a reference to the North. And the " All my Trials will soon be over " is the reference to those who were Slaves. Truly a Beautiful song ---------
Just fantastic performance!😍😍😍 Greatest performer of all time .🙏🙏🙏 Regarding the big ring that caught your eye, most of the jewellery that Elvis wore, he later gave away,his jeweller said in a video” Elvis ,a generous heart”. Please react to that .🙏❤️
I remember watching this live on TV when I was 13 years old. I hung on to every note. Had my first Elvis album when I was ten. Saved up my allowance to get it. Hope you youngsters heard of albums before.
