Elvis always surprises you. He's the ultimate performer. Reactions are getting better and better. The note in his belt he got during Sweet Caroline, you can see him slip in his belt during the song.
Women were always passing notes to him from the front of the stage, lol. It just shows you how comfortable on that stage he was. Another mind-blowing entertaining one from this exact same show, live in Vegas 1970, is suspicious minds. It's from the same show and that is the version that is fantastic to react to.
Everywhere he was he was so attacked by women, the note was from a woman backstage that stuck the note in his belt he just discovered it on stage. See Elvis interview, in the vid, "Elvis Presley Post Army Interview" 1960, Graceland, when he was drafted into the Army, and was shipped to Germany he was shocked to see the hundreds of German women who were waiting at the Dock when he got off the. they couldn't even speak English but they were there to greet him. No human man in the world has ever affect women like Elvis. That would also mean me. thanks for this great reaction.😍
Man, Elvis delivers a song like no one else! Yes, Elvis had a cheat sheet for the words at a part of the song he thought he'd get hung up on! He worked reading it so smoothly! Thanks Bimu!
When he was unsure about lyrics he had a full sheet of paper w-lyrics he held openly on stage & would tell the audience; i.e., Greensboro, North Carolina, San Antonio, Texas.
I love Elvis' smile. Yours is adorable, too. Great reaction as usual. The microphone thing was something he did to wake-up his sound men. It sent a very loud a strange noise into their headsets. He loved to prank members of the musicians and crew during shows.
And no matter what you think of his movies, Elvis ALWAYS delivered a good fight scene! Good punches, some nice throws, chops, kicks, rolls. I think he worked on his karate the most in those days.
Elvis was reading a note one of his fans gave him What makes me laugh is he decided to read the note in the middle of a song 😂 Only Elvis could do that 😂 He never took himself seriously Love your reactions
During an earlier performance, someone in the audience slipped a note into his belt. You see him looking confused as someone in the audience is gesturing to his belt. At first, he doesn't understand and he looks behind him, thinking they are pointing at something behind him. Then you see him look down, he takes the note from his belt, holds it up, nods his head and puts it back into his belt. Clearly he forgot about it and during this performance, he's adjusting his belt and accidentally pulls the note out, so he just stops to read it, then hands it to Charlie. So, it's a note from an audience member.
@@BimuReacts 🤣 A lot of people think that he was reading lyrics when they see that part. One reactor had me laughing so hard, he was like "What's he doing? Checking his phone?" Like dude, it was 1970, Elvis didn't have a cellphone. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just such a fun song. For the longest time I couldn't understand or hear in his low tone the "Alligator got your granny". Such a joy to here and see Elvis having a good time. I wish I knew what he ment when he said t his drummer " you're right, ". Did you notice that part.
"Polk Salad Annie" is a 1968 song written and performed by Tony Joe White. Its lyrics describe the lifestyle of a poor rural Southern girl and her family. Traditionally, the term to describe the type of food highlighted in the song is polk or poke salad, a cooked greens dish made from pokeweed.
Polk Salad (polk sallit to Southerners) is a green which grows wild and can be poisonous if not cooked correctly. I am a Southerner who grows it and eats it. This was a big hit by Tony Joe White in 1968. Elvis obviously like it, & did it live. Elvis never recorded it. You should react to the version by Tony Joe White. It’s great, and you will more fully understand the song, by hearing the studio version.
The note was probably from a female in the audience with her phone number on it. Elvis had his body guards in the audience and she probably gave it to one of them to give to Elvis.
Oh, and you probably already know, but do not trust those subtitles at all, they are highly inaccurate. I busted out laughing at one of them, when Elvis is singing "her Daddy was lazy and no-count" and the subtitle said "her daddy is Elysium" lol lol lol. I mean, Elysium was a great lower budget movie I thought, science fiction from a while back. But of course it has absolutely nothing to do with these lyrics that are being sung, laugh
You could see that slip of paper stuck in his waist band at the beginning, so I dont know if it was a note from a fan or maybe lyrics .. I've never seen it explained.
ELVIS got death threats constantly, I think this could have been one! By the way, I am from New Albany, Mississippi...which is about 25 miles from where he was born! He was, is, and always will be the KING of ROCK and ROLL! Also, a chain gang were men from the Penituary, who worked on the side of the roads and railroad, cutting down grass and picking up garbage! They were used in ALL of the States in the U.S.A. from the turn of the 20th Century until around 1980! ELVIS was and still is the best entertainer who ever lived! He is the GOAT!
This is such a fun song, you can see that Elvis was just having a good time performing it. Its very lighthearted and just makes you want to tap your feet and smile. The sub titles are so very wrong and very annoying though. There are other copies without the sub titles.
When he was unsure about lyrics he had a full sheet of paper w-lyrics he held openly on stage & would tell the audience; i.e., Greensboro, North Carolina, San Antonio, Texas.

He did this song Aug. 10, 11 & 12 & it was this Aug. 12 version that made it into the final cut of MGM's filming. Paper is too small for lyrics -- he did hold full sheets of lyrics on stage & announced it to the audience (North Carolina & San Antonio) -- something only he could do so naturally that didn't look wrong or foolish.
Actually, the girl who gave him the note was a spiritualist who had information for him. That's why he bothered to read it and why it took so long. Elvis was into studying various religions, although he was an affirmed Christian. He loved to read and this young woman had written a book. She ended up giving him a copy. So, the note disclosed some spiritual things he'd been focusing on. That's why he got that funny look on his face because it surprised him that he received a note containing information nobody could have known.
The sound in the video was not in syncretized with the action, and it not the full version. It was a butchered version. You need to see the full version. The note Elvis was reading was a note a girl had slipped to him earlier in the show.
5:44 Elvis is reading the lyrics that he has to sing. The guy had so much confidence on stage that he didn't even care about the fact that he was terrible at memorizing things, including the lyrics of the songs he would perform on that stage. So he always had some glue, and the whole team was already prepared for that. So much so that he hands the note to the guitarist and he takes it with the utmost naturalness.
