Hi VICKY!.... As a Christian man, who lost his faith, and the right way through acute alcoholism, it was the gospel songs of Elvis, especially this one that helped my faith to return from my wicked ways to our dear Lord and God, who is always there, and especially this hymn could only have been by Elvis! He is now in God's precious hands. Take care, and Thank you.... Johnny
So beautiful and such a heartfelt reaction. May I recommend Elvis - How great thou art 1972 (very impressive) (3:01). And I would love to see you do another reaction to this Elvis song that you reacted to a month ago: Elvis Presley - Can't Help Falling In Love (From "Blue Hawaii") (2:50). The version you watched last time, to me, is very strange with the music pretty much drowning out Elvis' voice. I know you'll enjoy the movie clip much more.
Its more about who Elvis is singing about rather than Elvis himself. God gave him an incredible gift, and he used it to sing about Jesus because he believed in him. Look to the one Elvis is singing about, and give your heart to him. Sadly, Elvis died and was buried, but Jesus suffered and died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins, then rose from the dead so that we can have eternal life. He lives.
Elvis is my idol every time I hear this song I cry of love the hunger the pain the passion for love and the love we made mistakes worth the love we lost but the The love we will gain With our Lord
Vicky, I just love your reaction to this song and Elvis. I grew up watching Elvis on the Ed Sullivan show my parents didn’t want us to watch but we still did. Elvis can express so many emotions in his songs and this is why I love to see your expression coming from a young generation and that is so great. Thanks for sharing.
I have been listening to his gospel since i was about 9 I am 57 now, I use his music to keep me hear if it was not for his gospel, I would have given up long ago his eases pain like nothing else. It is so good to see he affects people in the same way reaction wise.
Elvis raised in the church and started out wanting to be a Gospel singing. He sang from his heart and touched the world. Thanks for reacting. Be Blessed.
God Bless You, your heart reacted to this beautiful song, At the end of this song, it feels empty, I chose this song for my mother's funeral last year, everyone cried, even the priest, do you feel alive after this song
Elvis le plus photographier au monde et Hollywood aucun acteur ou chanteur ou sportif a nos jour arrive à sa classe dieu a créé une beauté un charme qu'on regarde ces film et surtout a armée c est grand Dios le plus beau qu'on vue a la télé Elvis c étais Amérique belle
46 years after his death, people are still calling Elvis the King of Rock'n'Roll, but he didn't like that title, he believed that the only king was God and he actually told this to his fans several times, he said: I believe that God is the only true king. I think that Elvis is and only the king of Rock'n roll, he is the king of music because he can sing very well in any genre, but what do you think, is he good enough to be called a music king? Elvis was really in my mind, the King of GOSPEL and other music, no one does it better then him, he is best known for making Rockn roll famous, so he was called The King of Rockn roll, but he never liked that people called him that. He repeatedly stopped fans who said that he was the king of rock'n roll, telling them: I'm just an entertainer and singer, God is the only true King!! Elvis was born in the poor parts of Tupelo Missisippi and it was mainly Afroamericans living there, at the place where Elvis family lived there only lived 3 more white familys, the rest was colored people, his family was dirtpoor until he became an artist after singing in a mainly colored peoples church during his childhood. Did you know that he had several friends that where Afroamericans, one of his friends where James Brown, yes THAT James Brown (The King of Soul), another artist was B.B King, yes that B.B King... He also was a good friend with Mohamed Ali, yes the GREATEST boxer of all time, he even had a Robe made for him, but it was to much bling on it so Ali wouldn't where it more then one time to a fight. He really admired Martin Luther King very much, Elvis felt that all people are equal, unfortually he never got to meet him, that would have created to much problems for both of them at that time. He had several medical problems, Glaucoma, sleeping, irritable bowel syndrome, things that affected his real life and made him need medication to function. Yes, he took medicines that today are considered to be called drugs, but at that time doctors prescribed it to him and to ordinary people, they did not know of the problems it could give people (side effects). He never took any so-called street drugs, but unfortunately he did not realize that those medications would be a problem for him, he thought that they where ordinary medicine because his doctor prescribed them to him and to everyone else that needed it. Many of his relativs died at a relatively young age, so even if he wouldn't have the medication, he might have died at about the same age. He could never be alone and thus himself, at that time the word superstar did not exist, so nothing could prepare him for that kind of life. Did you know that a big group of white poeple actually smashed his records and wanted to ban his music, just because they called it so called N... music, that is so painfun to think that some people actually can think like that, skincolor is just color and nothing more, when will people realise that? There are some videos of when Elvis joking and messing up, he loved to joke around and pretend that he did not have control, but he had total control, he acctually conducted his musicans and back up choirs all the time ! He is the only person to have 2 records gone to sell Gold and 2 to to sell Platinum since he died. Elvis is also in almost every genre of Music Hall of Fame (5 that I'm sure of Rock 'n' Roll, Country, Gospel, Rockabilly and Rhythm and Blues), if Gospel is a genre in Music Hall of fame, then he should be in there to, but no one else is in more then perhaps 2 genres. Not bad for someone who never took a single singing lesson, yes he sang in church so perhaps he learned a little there, right? Something else that people tend to overlook: He always conducts his musicans and backup singers, he never gets credit for being able to do that. Imagen you are a singer, you have great musicans, you have great backup singers, no Guest Artists, no Autotune, no Lipsinging and no Fireworks, now all is about your skill, could you handle that pressure? At the time when Elvis started, then Autotune did not exist yet and when it became availible, then he still did not use it, he did not need to, he always sang so that you could hear every word that he sang, the Fans always felt that he sang to just you ! That is what Elvis did in over 1600 concerts (during his 20 years as an artist), despite having problems with his health, like his Glaucoma, the headlights must have hurt his eyes like crazy. He sang over 800 songs, I wonder how he could remember them all, he never vrote a song himself, so he had to remember other peoples lyrics, well that is amazing in it self. By the way he had Glucomea and that must have been difficult being in the headlights all the time, that could be why he sometimes closes his eyes, but also sometimes squinting ! This unfortually made him temporary blind after the shows, that is why they led him of the stage and into his car, that is something that not many people knew about Elvis. Elvis suits was made of 100% Polyester, or 100 cotton (I'm not sure witch one), it was originally a karate suit, it was very light, but it was hot, so it made him sweat a lot, he got some bad press about that, but if you give it all then you will sweat, it should be positive, right? About the deep basevoice JD Sumner (a member of The Stamps Quartet) he is the Basso Profundo, I think it's called that, it is the deepest base singer there is. A video about him helping others, look at this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CrJ1c9tm-C0.html Elvis made a show where all the money went to build the Memorial after Pearl Harbour, he talked to the nations about taking the Poliovaccin, Elvis took the first injection himself, he helped by donating a big amount of money to St Jude hospital, they fight against cancer (especially children with), he also gave away juwelery, gave away cars, he even gave away some houses to total strangers. Elvis started an organization that helps people to get out of Homelessness (Presley Charitable Foundation), this organization helps people even now close to 50 years after he passed away. A thing that you perhaps did not know: Elvis ALMOST NEVER did a show OUTSIDE OF USA, yes he did sing a few times in Canada: 4 concerts, 2 in Toronto, 1 in Ottowa and 1 time in Vancouver (during the 50:s?). When the Aloha From Hawaii (Live in Honolulu 1973) was showed it had 1.5 Billion viewers from around the whole world and 3.7 billion people lived on earth at this time, so it was close to 1/3 of all of the population on earth that wiewed the show, it was the first time a single artist was shown LIVE around the globe. Video of Mohammad Ali speech after Elvis died: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PO8Kq_3KTyI.html I have to say that I loved being at Graceland and seeing his home, first we were at the house in Tupelo where he lived in his early years, he was born there ! You don't have a guide taking you on a tour, you can go all over yourself, but stay outside of the ropes and do not attempt to go upstairs, the outside is huge, so is the house, but you don't realise that from the front of the house. I don't regret for a second that I was there, or that I stood at his grave site and said out loud that this is for the humanitarian Elvis/the person/the man and then I gave him a military salute, the others there just looked at me and asked if I didn't like his music. So I told them that he was clearly one of the best singers and artists ever, but I loved his big heart more, he helped so many people without getting credit for it, he didn't want the credit of helping others, he did it out of love and respect and to me that is what true charity is all about. This PLACE (GRACELAND) should be a protected part of music history and also American history forever, I think that people will keep coming for years and years and years to come ! Elvis did lots of things for America to, he helped to avoid getting Polio (he took the vaccin in a tv show that made the intrest for taking the vaccin go from 0,6 % to 80 % in 6 months), he also helped in the figth to defeat Cancer by helping to build up St Judes children cancer treatment clinic, he also helped to build the Memorial over Pearl Harbour and many other things!
Everyone thinks elvis was just a singer he was a life changer for a lot of people. His kindness and his ability to touch people's souls is unmatched by anyone to ever live watch the king of kindness and you see what i mean
Thank you Vicky for playing the great man again there’s no one in the world to touch him and there. Never. Will. Be. long. As people live on this earth he is simply God and his name is Elvis Presley👑👑👑👑👑👑👑⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👑👑👑👑👑
I came up with a "fantasy" concert, I could really imagine myself watching and listening to Elvis and these artists: Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin, Janis Joplin, James Brown, Michael Jackson, Bob Marley and Elvis Presley (if I could hear Elvis sing some duets with Lisa Marie to). Would you go and watch them perform if you could, or who would you like to see and hear if you could choose anyone???
Never be sorry for crying for the great man he’s looking down on you and Vicky and saying what a wonderful person you are keep playing the greatest singer of all time forget anyone else just play him❤❤❤❤❤❤
