Elvis Presley "Jailhouse Rock" (LiveStream) Reaction | Asia and BJ 

This was arguably the first music video ever. Elvis' voice just kills it. And he choreographed all the dance moves. Michael Jackson always tributed this as one of his major influences.

*There will never be another King of Rock & Roll....like Elvis! Ever!*

This was from movie “Jailhouse Rock.” Elvis did choreography. He was about 19 here. Pre-Army days.

Before anyone did anything, ELVIS did everything.

Elvis slayed this performance. Prowled the stage. Let his voice rip. He was good looking and rock was beginning.

This was actually the world's 1st music video and it was done in '57 out of his movie Jailhouse Rock. The future was set for Music Videos!!!!!!! It was another #1 hit for him in '57 with about 5 or 6 others. All multi million selling hits. It all started in'56 With Heartbreak Hotel and in '56 he had about 5 or 6 #1 its multi million selling. He was topping the charts with anything he put out. That's when the started calling him The King of the Charts. Staying there for several weeks in a row. The world had never seen anything like this. He often wandered why he was the chosen one to set the stage for the future. He often wandered WHY he had to be ELVIS!!!! Alot of pressure was about to be at stake. He had over 600 songs. It will take quiet a journey. There's Elvis-50's, Elvis-60's and Elvis-70's. There's Elvis gospel, country, blues, pop and rock. I have a long list. Let's explore together!!! Thank You, thank you very much!!!!

The king of rock roll and everything else.

I have never seen a more beautiful smile than Asia's.

God was showing off when he created Elvis !!!!

Elvis songs never get old

Elvis is legendary

Must admit, Elvis was a good looking man. Very handsome, indeed. My fav songs are JailHouse Rock, Blue Suede Shoes and Hound Dog.

My man Elvis beautiful inside and out at any age

No one can beat Elvis.

Never gets old ❤ great performer, and great choice!

Can't believe how young he was here and how amazing the choreography was for the mid 1950's... There wasn't anyone doing this kind a stuff back then.

I love to see young people discover Elvis! People new to Elvis always know he's called the King of Rock 'N Roll, but I've noticed most requests are for songs from 1968 and later. Of course, all of these are fantastic, but I feel like you're missing out on a lot of what changed music as we knew it and made Elvis a star. He recorded a ton of songs in all different genres in 1956-57. If you want to react to some early Elvis rock 'n roll check these out: (1) Elvis Presley "Ready Teddy" on The Ed Sullivan Show (2:03); (2) ELVIS PRESLEY, GOT A LOT O' LIVIN TO DO (1:58); Elvis Presley - I Need Your Love Tonight (Colourised Video Edit) (2:17); (4) Elvis Presley - Good Rockin' Tonight (Live ~ RARE) (2:46).

Loved this dance that he choreographed and sang. This became iconic, as he did. Thanks 🙏🏼

THank you for your reaction to a Elvis song ! I really love Elvis and his songs so thank you very much !

The actress who played love interest she was killed shortly after finishing the movie and Elvis was so torn up about it they had been come good friends

First music video ever was Elvis !!

That kind of production probably influenced Micheal Jackson's video for Beat it.

He did his own dance moves,all real

The real King 👑 of music.....

Elvis had the moves he chrographic this dance

Super! and Fantastic!

Love watching you guys

Some guys are just born to become stars. That's all.

MJ loved how Elvis danced.

and this is why Elvis is the King...

Oh one of my favorites of his ❣️

World's first rock video.

Awesome video, good movie, great Singer 🎤🎸🎸🤘🔥

You both are awesome, watching you guys from Las Vegas Nevada 😎

Rock and roll in it,s infancy.just getting started.

He made this whole old stuff to be cool through his presence

Thanks thanks very much Elvis for you rock my boy my boy 🤘

Th8s was young great elvis

This performance was the first music video in history... another Milestone from the career of Elvis Presley

Glad you guys enjoyed this performance by a young Elvis as much as many of us have. It's pretty hard to sweep aside his talent and enjoyment/enthusiasm for his work. I was never his biggest fan but I believe the man was born to be a star.

Although it's a scene in a movie, I believe this is consider the first music video.

This was the first music video in history ....... Plus Another first through Elvis ....... Elvis was the first one to add Drums to the combo of Instruments ...... The film was first titled ...... "Ghost of a Chance" ........ After the song was recorded, it was clear that it was going to be a hit, So the movie was renamed Jailhouse Rock. The single was released in September 1957 ....... "Jailhouse Rock" has one of the most memorable intros in rock history ....... Two guitar chords with snare drum hits ....... The intro last just six seconds ....... But the pattern repeats throughout the verses ....... Establishing a firm musical hook that remains the envy of songwriters ....... ABC television ran a series of educational cartoons called "Schoolhouse Rock" in the '70s. Millions of kids learned about grammar, history, and astronomy from them. The title was a play on this song. Ozzy Osbourne played a heavy metal version in 1987 when he did a tour of prisons. Sha-Na-Na played this at Woodstock in 1969. Very few of the attendees saw their performance, as they didn't go on until Monday morning (the event was scheduled to end at midnight on Sunday, but ran long) ........ In 2007 ....... Chris Rock performed this on the Movies Rock TV special, where modern pop artists performed classic movie songs. Brown re-created Elvis' scene from the movie .........

❤❤❤❤

This is from the movie Jailhouse Rock.

We all know now where Elvis got his moves, little Forrest! 😅😂😂

Excelente reacción 👏👏👏

As a 60 yr old it pleases me so much to see young people learning why we Elvis fans have always been so loyal to this legend..keep on enjoying him his life and music is like no other

THE MAN !!!

"Number 47 said to Number 3, you're the cutest jailbird I ever did see". LOL, they snuck prison sex in there, and barely anyone noticed. 🔥😹

A very young Elvis ❤️

This was a clip from the movie, Jailhouse Rock

Elvis Was a pioneer of dancing in a pole.....😂🤣😂

Alex Romero, a dancer and choreographer who directed Elvis Presley's dancing for the movie “Jailhouse Rock” and also worked with Presley on three other films

Love the show

One of my favorite Elvis song is Crawfish. Shows how versatile his music is.

Great song

Like that song 😍

Video !!!! they didn't have music videos in the 50's this was a movie song . Its great young people are discovering Elvis but really do some ground work.

The King!! Elvis, Sinatra, and Michael Jackson are the top 3 of all time performers!

One of the first music videos #MusicHistory

the first music video

Favorite part: “Lay it on me, Daddy-O!”

I bet they had fun doing that song! Great fast dance music.

SO YOUNG THE ROCKET SHIP THAT TOOK HIM TO THE HIGHEST AND LOWEST POINTS OF HIS LIFE HAD JUST STARTED THEN 20 SHORT YEARS LATER HE WAS GONE LIKE A COMET FLASHING ACROSS THE SKY

SO GREAT‼️😁

1957 Jailhouse Rock

Jimmy Page from Led Zep has said that the thing that got him interested in playing the guitar and rock and roll was Elvis. I love when they play Elvis covers in their live gigs, like the Whole Lotta Love (medley) from the BBC Sessions.

This was a scene from the movie "Jail House Rock", named after the song he recorded I think. Elvis was smooth! he was only about 18 or 19 years old, and was already a huge star. Talent like his, comes around, once in a lifetime. God Bless

I eas 8 yrs old when Elvis died. My mom esd crying so hard. 😢

THE KING 👑🗿🙌🏻

there was a point in TV history where they would not film Elvis from the waist or below because of those amazing swivel hips. got the girls going!!!!

Your Going To Like This One !

Thank you thank you very much 💕 The GOAT 💯👍🙌🕺👌 God bless you ⚡ TCB ⚡🎸🎼🎶🎵🥁🇵🇷🇺🇲😘🙏

He was not lip-syncing , the sound and picture were recorded on 2 seperate track back then. Michael Jackson sang while dancing on stage, it the same. Elvis and also Michael are in a class of musicians that few ever achieve. If you watch We are the world - video you will see the top vocalist of all time. You either have the magic or you don't Elvis had it. Thanks for the video

“No. 47 said to No. 3, 'You the cutest jailbird I ever did see' “...No innuendo there at all 😉

From the movie, Elvis choreographed this dance sequence.

Keep em coming. This is theatrical version of the original release. Yall went down a LOADED rabbit hole! There's so many levels to Elvis, this is just scratching the surface. He could do anything, actually did...but his Live Concerts were where he was truly in his element. Forget what you told before your too old. The man dominated from start to finish and the more you listen/watch yall will see. The early years set the foundation, but as time went on, Elvis kept evolving. Ya gotta look at his live material, whether it be pro filmed or not. He didn't like being called the 'King.' I simply call him the GOAT and I'll put money on that shit. PEACE!

Your wife's smile is so beautiful!!! Enjoy the reaction.

I'm in the building

My mom used to tell me about how at first they wouldn’t show him from the waist down on tv.

Loved your reaction very much Elvis was the best friend i ever had in my entire life. we met when i was 17 yrs old. our friendship lasted past that one day in time we were friends for 10 yrs. up until the day he left us. He asked nothing of me and i asked nothing from him he needed a friend and so did i we were that for each other he never judged me and i never judged him. All the memories of my friend are tucked safe in my heart forever. dancing and singing breaks my heart because i know he is not here anymore my mind understands but my heart never will, i saw him a few weeks before he passed we had a short conversation which i will never share again because people are so nasty and comment hurtful heart breaking things they do not know me but they still can't keep their mouths closed about things they know nothing about. I walk past Graceland everyday love from the one and only Memphis Tn. btw fun fact the instruments were cardboard cut outs. and it was all Elvis, no lipsyncing. 1

Elvis was 22 in 1957.

I can see why you have so many subscribers… you’re enjoying it, feeling it and love your smiles! Fab! 🤴🏻⚡️🎼

At least Elvis told the truth, he admired Jackie Wilson, he took the move from other singers from the times back them,come on folks, y'all know what they called Elvis music 🎶 I am so glad God don't judge and love all are music. Peace,joy,and love

Michael Jackson was inspired by Elvis

For the movie they changed up the song a bit, at the end they transition to a movie version ending

Elvis said, the dancers were real inmates.

Watch the moves.

The story of the choreography -- “Alex Romero, a dancer and choreographer was assigned by MGM production executive Pandro S. Berman to work on Elvis' dancing for the movie "Jailhouse Rock.” Dancing great Gene Kelly was on set as an observer while the scene was being filmed, & Elvis was helped by dancer Russ Tamblyn, who worked with Presley on his leg movement. Romero also conceived the sets and costumes. Due to an oversight by MGM production executive Pandro Berman, choreographer Romero did not receive credit for his work. Berman sent Romero a letter of apology that was published in Variety Magazine." Romero also worked with Presley on three other films - Clambake (1967), Double Trouble (1967), and Speedway (1968)." There was a rift between Romero & the studio & i believe the lack of credit was intentional.

this remind me of the "Hound dog" by Elvis as well...all the moves and to compare he is already best while technology is not that good at that time...what could be more said when Elvis is born today with this best technologies...OMG!💗

THERE'S A GUY HERE IN TOWN WHO RECENTLY PASSED AWAY THAT WAS IN THAT VIDEO

I would ask y'all to react to just pretend from 1970, in Vegas. Or love me tender, 1970 in Vegas too. Hell or suspicious minds from 1970 XD i'ts hilarious

This was first video ever

Actually Elvis Presley Jailhouse Rock was the very first music video recorded ever in history!

That was all Elvis, no lipsyncing.

Elvis did 31 movies. This was from Jailhouse Rock. He sang at least 1 song in all of his movies except one. Charro from 1969 is the only movie where the only music at all was the title song. Elvis knew he only had a contract for a few more movies and he was ready to get back to what he loved..being on stage in front of his fans...so he did the '68 Comeback Special to test the waters and to make sure he could still pull the crowds. By 1970, he had finished all his movies and hit the stage in Vegas before going on tour again.

It was in a movie!

That was tame Elvis for tv. His live acts at time were considered " to vulger"

yes jail house rock was the first music videos ever done or made yes

This is from the 1957 movie, Jailhouse Rock. Elvis was 22, & this dance sequence from the movie is often cited as his "greatest moment on screen." It's always been one of my favorites by EP! Also, Alex Romero was the film's choreographer, but he utilized Elvis' input, and Elvis spent the evening before filming being coached by Russ Tamblyn (Riff in the movie classic, West Side Story), making sure he had all the moves down pat.
