Each of the three songs included in the medley holds symbolic and historical weight. “Dixie” represents the antebellum South, “Battle Hymn of the Republic” symbolizes the Union and the Civil War, and “All My Trials” reflects the struggle of oppressed individuals seeking justice and freedom.
Young lady he always give 110% of his himself even though he passed 3 years later he still give 110 per cent of his self every time he got on that stage
This song is perfect for Elvis ,he is from the south ,which is dixie ,served his country ,and loved gospel ,and he puts so much passion ,emotion ,and very strong vocals when he sings
With only his band & backup singers, this was pure Elvis, his voice, & charisma. Again, proof that Elvis is the best entertainer & performer that stepped onto a stage. His presence, on & off the stage, remains UNMATCHED. The King of Rock & Roll. Another great reaction. Thank you 😊
This was the first time a single artist was broadcast(ed) all over the world, this was LIVE and over 1 BILLION (some say 1,5 BILLION) people out of 3.7 BILLION that was living on earth in 1973...
"Dixieland" is an American southern ballad, adopted as a theme song of the Confederates during the American Civil War. "All My Trials" is a Negro spiritual/lullaby, cherished & sung by American slaves. "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" became the theme song of the northern Federal Armed Forces. Elvis adroitly pulled those 3 disparate political entities together, melding them into one with this song. Thanks for your reaction.
Hey, Blessing. A song of the South, a song of the North, and a slave lullaby, and Elvis ties it all together so magnificently. An iconic performance for sure. And it was broadcast by satellite to ultimately over a billion people around the globe.
The Description of the song you read was Beautifully Said. The Song Uses 3 Civil War Era Songs Dixieland from the American South where most Slavery took Place, the Battle Hymn of the Republic Represents the Northern States who Fought to Abolish Slavery and All my Trials a Bahamian Lullaby sung by the Black Americans who were Enslaved. The Song Represents the Triumph over and Reunification of our Country after Slavery.
… Elvis was the first and the best! ... A millennium singer for eternity ... I've never heard a better male voice than Elvis's...amazingly good !! … His performance in Hawaii in 1973 via satellite was the biggest event in music history of the last century! … John Lennon said it best... "Before Elvis, there was nothing." ✨💎✨🕺🏻🕯 Thank you
I can't be certain, but I believe the three songs address the South and North conflict during the American Civil War, and by Elvis singing their representative "anthems", he is stressing and encouraging unity among the current generation. Elvis was very often, very profound.
Pure perfection. He also did his best when he need it the most. Worldwide show. The very first, and to this day the only one with a single artist. After this it would take another 12 years until 1985 and Live Aid, which hade just about every big musical act in the world signed. Aloha from Hawaii was pure Elvis only, the GOAT! Imagine anyone else singing this btw. Subscribed of course. Love a new great channel.
I can't tell you how much i love and miss him, there is not a day that goes by that i don't think of him and all the memories we made in 10 short years, his death knocked the wind out of me i have never been the same since, Elvis was the big brother i never had. He is also my guardian angel. Graceland is my go to place when it get's to hard to live w/o my friend i go there and walk around and remember Elvis and all the beautiful times we had together. He was the only person in my life that understood me and cared about my feelings and opinions. What it comes down to is we both needed a true friend and we were that for each other. Awesome reaction. I had to set some fool straight last night people trying to dirty Elvis name not on my watch what sickens me the most is the people that are talking smack know nothing of what they are speaking of, i have spent my entire adult life speaking out to people that try and judge a beautiful soul that is not here to defend himself and don't get me started on my girl Priscilla people hate her because they are straight up jealous she made Graceland prosperous no one else and people putting her down no way not while i still have breath in my lungs no one i mean no one will disrespect them period. God bless you and your family from the one and only Memphis Tn. 😭Elvis told me all the time you should always know where you stand with people now i know what he meant. #forevermyking
Hi , I feel so much like you have just put in words so elegantly , it's never been easy for me to let go of losing, Elvis , he took a huge piece of my heart and soul that terrible day and I will defend him and his family till the end of the world, I have had so many people who have been nothing but trash talkers , pure hate saying crap they claim to know , I'm with you , Priscilla dedicated her life and heart for keeping his beautiful legacy alive for Lisa Marie and the entire world, it broke my heart once more when Lisa Marie left us , it took me back to that terrible day I don't like to think about. I am assuming you personally knew Elvis and if so I can only imagine the Love that you had with this beautiful man of ours, Elvis is a part of my daily life , was lucky enough to see him 3 times in concert and I cherish those days forever and always,, and also the cards remarks from the haters are just freaking jealous , IT sounds like you could have been his step brother Billy Stanley , may be wrong , but I Love him like a family member as well , always have , no one understands the Depth of the Love that True ELVIS Fans have for this incredible soul, we love him fault's and all , so few to mention , really nice remarks , thanks for sharing this.

Hi Blessing! This was a fabulous reaction to an amazing song by Elvis from the 1970s. Your research was exactly right and so are the descriptions that some of your other responders here are giving you. This was a big hit back in the 1970s for sure. And as you said, very emotional. Especially when one considers the backdrop to the song. Again, wonderful reaction and keep up the great work! 🙏😊💜
Thank you for this. TRILOGY: a medley of three uniquely American pieces: “Dixie,” (dixie are the states down south in the U.S.); “Battle Hymn of the Republic,” a marching hymn of the Union Army during the American Civil War; and “All My Trials,” a Bahamian (people of the Bahamas) lullaby related to African American spirituals sung by protesting folksingers of the 1950s. It was perspiration from the mega hot house lights & stage lights & a heavy jumpsuit -- but yes, Elvis was an extremely passionate & emotional singer, it came from his soul & his gut, even his upbeat, fast songs had much emotion passion & were very powerful -- like no other! THE RAMP from the STAGE: Producer/director Marty Pasetta told Parker (Elvis' manager) that he wanted to build a ramp for Elvis to walk out onto & Parker said no. Pasetta explained that it would be 8 ft. wide & Elvis could stay in the middle or go to the left or to the right if he wanted to (Pasetta knew how important the audience was to Elvis). Parker said no. Fortunately, Pasetta was able to meet w-Elvis & he explained exactly what he told Parker. Fortunately again, Elvis overrode Parker & told Pasetta to build the ramp. Paseta told Elvis he wanted him to lose 25 lbs., which Elvis did. Elvis then hugged Pasetta & said you are one of the few people who has been totally honest w-me. Imagine how different that concert would have been if Elvis didn't have the option to get in close contact w-his audience. HE would have been just as spectacular, but without the ramp the concert would have had a very different feel.
The bass that you hear in his background singer would be JD Sumner. He was the premier bass profundo of his generation. Elvis was in awe of his ability to hit low notes. If you watch Elvis doing How Great Thou Art, Elvis actually laughs a little when JD hits a low note.
Excellent reaction, Blessing, to one of the most important songs in American history. "An American Trilogy" is from "Aloha from Hawaii", a live satellite TV event seen by 1.5 billion people in 36 countries, the first time anything like that had ever happened. Elvis was king of the world, in 36 countries anyway. This 3-song medley covers the American Civil War, the war to end slavery in America. Elvis was a white man from Dixie, the deep South, and a champion of blacks, so relates to all three songs. He opens with Dixie, a beautiful song, albeit the song of the slave-holding Confederacy. Still, it is beautiful and Elvis unleashes the first Elvisism when he growls out "early Lord one frosty morn" shortly after taking the vocal back from The Imperials, his backup singers. Then he hits The Battle Hymn of the Republic, song of the Union, song of those who fought to end slavery. "Glory, Glory, Hallelujah", sung by Elvis is as good as singing gets and a song as powerful and important as any song ever, the song that won the Civil War. Then Elvis goes into a dark place, his face transformed into a rictus of pain. Now he's a slave singing to his child. "Hush my child, don't you cry. You know your Daddy's gonna die." Saddest. Song. Ever. Elvis has now inhabited all three parties to the Civil War: Southerner, Northerner, Slave. Then it transitions back into Dixie with the most perfect flute solo ever, played by an African-American flautist. His shoulder flourish as he finishes is as perfect a symbol of the unification of America as you'll ever see and concludes a beautiful musical moment. Finally back to Elvis, now in full King of Rock and Roll mode. Up come the trumpets, vanquishing Dixie and powering back into the Battle Hymn of the Republic, as proud an American moment as you'll ever hear. Elvis pumps the band to hit it and turns towards his global audience. GLORY GLORY HALLELUJAH HIS TRUTH IS MARCHING ON HIS TRUTH IS MARCHING ON-NNN-NNN He belts this out with unparalleled vocal power to 1.5 billion people watching live. The Battle Hymn of the Republic wins the 3-way battle that is An American Trilogy. God's truth wins, slavery is defeated. Elvis is the king.
Dixie is the american south (where slavery was - for the most part). So i guess one song for the south, one for the north and one for the enslaved people. I found this : "Dixie" - a popular folk song about the southern United States. "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" - a marching hymn of the Union Army during the American Civil War; and "All My Trials" - a Bahamian lullaby related to African American spirituals
Welcome back hope your doing well and healthy today miss you on here love this song Elvis Presley voice was an Miracle people still listen too his music even till today too love your reaction to this song and video too you are always so awesome on your youtube channel always thank you so much for sharing this video with us love it Mrs.penpal.🤗👍
A story of Americas civil war to secure these words " we believe these truths to be self evident that all men are created equal by their creator " Dixie combined with battle Hym of the republic, Abraham Lincoln's favorite song!🇺🇸🗽🇺🇸!
The American civil war was the US against the seceding slave states, the Confederacy, aka Dixieland. The song dixieland was a Southern anthem, while the other was a battle song of the North. The interlude in the middle represents the hundreds of thousand of men who died on both sides in the war, Glory being sung again and finally represents the victory of the North.
It's called an American Trilogy because it's made up of three song from the Civil War Era. Dixieland is what the South of the United States is sometimes called. While the song has some confederate homage. It is Elvis homage to being a southern born American.
Great reaction btw. Your assessment afterwards is very competent and shows you are not just a "hey this was great" reactor. When you started talking about microphone control you gave that away. Only those "in the business" know this. Especial old school, (when mics where wired (and they should all be ;)). Anyhow, great and professionell reaction on your part.
Another lovely reaction from you, Blessing. ❤️ While Dixieland applies to a form of New Orleans-based jazz, it's come to be synonymous with the entire U.S. South, which includes your present home state.

Thank you MrsPenPal. Very nice of you. Be sure to read the new testament, if you already havent, by the biblical Jesus Christ. May God pour many blessings over you. ❤️❤️❤️✝️❤️❤️❤️
Dixie refers to southeastern US, south of the MasonDixon line border between Pennsylvania and Maryland, where slavery was prominent before the Civil War
isn't this song about the civil war where the south where Elvis is from wanted to keep slavery and the north did not, they wanted to abolish it, so they went to war over it? And Elvis is singing the praises of the south?
Hi guys thoughts on Elvis American Trilogy do share :) do say hi in the comments. Let’s connect: linktr.ee/mrspenpal
Warning: Elvis is addictive!! One song and you're hooked!!
Each of the three songs included in the medley holds symbolic and historical weight. “Dixie” represents the antebellum South, “Battle Hymn of the Republic” symbolizes the Union and the Civil War, and “All My Trials” reflects the struggle of oppressed individuals seeking justice and freedom.
Thank you 😊 Thank you very much 🙏
Young lady he always give 110% of his himself even though he passed 3 years later he still give 110 per cent of his self every time he got on that stage
And all done live!
This song is perfect for Elvis ,he is from the south ,which is dixie ,served his country ,and loved gospel ,and he puts so much passion ,emotion ,and very strong vocals when he sings
I am fascinated with these ‘first’ reactions to Trilogy. Aged 8, I got the ‘Aloha’ album In 1973. Still as stunning as 50 years ago
It was my first ever CD I bought. Still mesmerizes me! 👑✌️
With only his band & backup singers, this was pure Elvis, his voice, & charisma. Again, proof that Elvis is the best entertainer & performer that stepped onto a stage. His presence, on & off the stage, remains UNMATCHED. The King of Rock & Roll. Another great reaction. Thank you 😊

Elvis was magical . My mama use to tell me he was a Angel on earth. Thank you for this song I always got tears listening to him just don't know why
Amazing reaction. Feel the passion and emotion of his voice. The KING. More please 💕💕💕💕
Wow, How fitting this song is for today.! OMG Wow,wow,wow.. ELVIS
What a way to start my day with Elvis Presley and you Mrs Paul 👍

Great reaction! Elvis at the end of his prime.
THIS REACTION WAS ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC MY DEAR! EMOTIONAL! ❤😊
And so was this song. Thanks for your comment Michaella🤗
I love how his voice maintains its fullness and presence even when he moves the microphone away...

That deep voice you pointed in the beginning was JD Sumner's. Interestingly enough, Elvis was always somewhat jealous of his voice.
Oh really 😅
Elvis was not jealous of his voice. JD was actually Elvis’ idol.
@@timothycnptmp You're right. I used the expression "somewhat jealous" mostly meaning admiration.
About both sides of the civil war.
Dixie refers to southeastern US, south of the MasonDixon line border between Pennsylvania and Maryland, where slavery was prominent before the Civil War
HE AINT CALLED THE KING FOR NOTHING!
The civil war. ( is bound to die) soldiers. Slaves singing.
Please watch community black eccept Elvis part 1 n 2 ,dedecated the song to MLK n R Kennedy, if l can dream after the assassination✌️🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Civil war
isn't this song about the civil war where the south where Elvis is from wanted to keep slavery and the north did not, they wanted to abolish it, so they went to war over it? And Elvis is singing the praises of the south?
Yes. Dixie Land was the unofficial anthem of the South during the Civil War.
@@toddwynn3397 So the south where Elvis is from wanted to keep slavery.
No the trilogy is from 3 songs one for the south and one for the north and one for the slaves. So no he wasn’t singing the praise of slavery
