I met Elvis when I was a kid. My mother used me to get his attention because he always liked kids. When he got out of the car to do rehearsals for a concert he was doing mom put me on her shoulders and told me to yell Elvis. I did and he saw me and went through a small crowd to come shake my hand. I had no idea who he was because I was young. But, I remember him like right now. He literally did not look real. He look like one of those dolls with perfect features and perfect hair. I could feel his positive energy. I remember he had a great smelling cologne and the scent stayed on my hand for the rest of the day and my mother refused to shower me that day so she could smell my hand the rest of the night. He said to me hi buddy how are you ?? I said I'm ok. He said ok ?? No !! I want you to be happy and not ok. I said ok. He said I told you not ok. I said ok. He started laughing and put his hand on my head and rubbed it for a moment and he then walked in. My mother damn near had a heart attack after he left because she started to cry uncontrollably. So, I've been lucky I've met in person people like Elvis, Madonna, Michael Jackson at Madison Square Garden, Tupac Shakur four days before he was killed and even Robin Williams. Britt here is another video dedicated to Elvis that you will love to react to. It is Elvis daughter singing a sing to her dad. It is really good...ruclips.net/video/pAEpuJtgzEg/видео.html
You have some of the best reactions I have seen on RUclips. Based on this song, you may want to check out "Walkin' in Memphis" by Marc Cohn. You'd love those lyrics too. Great job, Britt.
She really is the best!
@@kd8199 I fully agree. And Britt sounds like she has an excellent voice as well.
@@Hawk-ODA212 I wouldn't be surprised if we see her on the big screen someday! She's so hard to stop watching!
@@rasyncpatriot6208 I totally agree. She's smart, attractive and really good at conveying her thoughts to the viewers.
Being from Memphis I have heard this so much growing up and Elvis was EVERYWHERE. I second listening to Walkin' in Memphis! It's still a favorite of mine❤
I’m a seventy five year old and never knew this song was about Elvis. I always loved the song for its driving beat…first and foremost…and her incredible voice. They say you learn something every day and now I’m a little embarrassed that I didn’t know this.
This song has one killer bass line
This song is one killer bass line
This is a amazing tribute to the King of Rock & Roll
Pictures of Elvis printed on a black velvet background were once very popular and were everywhere. Nowadays you are likely to see them at flea markets or antique shops. Great reaction! Thanks
I ultimately found two of them that weren’t cheesy looking. One was of him in the black leather suit. The other was akin to him up to the microphone at Sun. It was very subtlety done. Never saw another one like it. After all these years, never found two I’ve loved more than what I’ve got.
I suspect double meaning in describing Elvis as "Black velvet". As in also meaning how he sung black style music (rock&roll etc.), sung in a black style, and even danced in a black ghettos style (where he grew up).
@@memphisflashfan1 The Velvet Elvis paintings I saw were all cheesy-looking. When I first visited my parents who had moved from Memphis to South Carolina in 1989 my mother took me to a little store on Saint Helena Island. There were Velvet Elvis paintings on the walls. I remember saying to her, "We can't get away from Elvis on Velvet". But hey, the song is great and her voice is fantastic. :) Nice tribute and nice reaction!
At the time, Alannah said it referred to the first ever public performance Elvis did, at a county fair. He wore a black velvet shirt & his hair was still dirty blonde. He died of black shortly after. It's on You Tube. ( its b/w footage).
You found one of the greatest recordings with the hottest vocals. Bravo, great reaction!
So many songs about Elvis ,this is the best.
Alannah is a Canadian Rock icon, in my humble Canadian opinion. I wanted her hair. Back in the 80's it was her and Sass Jordan who proved that women can be rock singers. Both are Canadian and both are incredible. Sass Jordan's Make You a Believer is a must see.
Alannah does have many other hits here in Canada.
"The way he moved it was a Sin, So sweet and true"
"Love Me Tender leaves em cryin in the Isles" Come on Lyrics!!!! This whole song is fire 🔥
I think it's "...crying in the aisles", as in church, but I'm sure you knew that.
Refers to the end of the film
Nobody did it like Alannah did it. I had SUCH a crush as a teenager...
I absolutely recommend any and all of her stuff from her channel.
I always prefer to suggest starting with any artists' older/ beginning material first and working your way up to the present. :)
The phrase about "Love Me Tender" refers to his 50's hit song by the same name and his first movie role by the same name. Recommend you watch the movie to see a very young Elvis in a dramatic role that takes place in the Civil War.
Hey, for the record, I'm over 50 and know all these songs you check out. I had NO IDEA this song was about Elvis. After all, this song came out before we had google to check things out. I have always loved that slow groove - the feel of a very hot southern afternoon. So, thank you for opening me to that bit of trivia. Makes the song even greater (somehow).
In Canada her music got a lot of radio play, "Still got this thing" or "Love is" were big, one of my favourites, a bit softer, but still with her raspy voice is "Lover of Mine", I don't recall it getting radio play but liked it from her album.
Her album was great. I pretty much like/ed all the songs.
I was 19 when this song came out, and she had all the boys feeling like the girls did for Elvis, I can still remember seeing this video for the first time.
I was born in Memphis and was a small child when he passed. There are pics of me and my sisters standing outside of the gates of Graceland. My parents were huge Elvis fans. I’m named Lisa and people always thought I was named after Lisa Marie.
She has a fantastic voice! Thanks for your reaction. The car was symbolic. Elvis used to give Cadillac's (cars) away out of the blue to people in Memphis. He'd see a couple at a car dealership and say "would you like one of those?" and then buy it for them. I'm not kidding.
One Terrific CDN Artist! Always liked Alannah's voice!! SEXY!!!
I was born in 1972. My mom was growing up in the middle of the Elvis craze. Therefore, I am an Elvis fan as well. She used to have a huge painting of Elvis painted on black velvet. I loved that picture. I swear those black velvet paintings were possessed by Elvis himself. You could look in those eyes and feel it in your soul.
They were very popular paintings in the late 70's and early 80's.
The incomparable Alannah Myles. Please check out her hit "Still Got This Thing For You." Not many have reacted to it. She rocks out to the max. And yes, she's wearing her leather in most of her videos. One of Canada's many vocal treasures. :)
I really enjoy your reaction videos dear girl. I’m so happy I born at just the right time to live through all the music of the 60’s and 70’s 🔥❤️☮️👵🏼
Your voice was so beautiful when you mirrored Allannah's ending notes. It was a distinct pleasure to watch this reaction! I love when you do any music from the 20th century. Your joy is so evident! 💚
Alanah Myles, a great Canadian singer!
"Love is" is another great Alannah Myles tune.
Fun to see this come up on my feed Britt, 1y later.
He was something.
My mom had one of those black velvet Elvis paintings.
I played this song for her and she asked to hear it a few more times after that. ❤
I was 11 and my mom was obsessed with this song. Literally listened to this on cassette on loop...I hated it. But after a few decades I have learned to love it. Thanks for bringing this song to my attention again!
Yes
You are 100 percent correct
I love this song and NEVER knew it was about The one and only King
ELVIS until today thanks to you.
So I did interpret my own story into the song these many years.
Good on you!
Super reaction.
Wonderful! This is the best video of her singing this. I love this one. She is so good.
Another soulful song that mentions Elvis in it is "Walking in Memphis" by Marc Cohn. Great song... It basically tells a story of musical inspiration that Marc experienced on at trip to Memphis.
Elvis was blessed with more than a one of a kind voice but the incredibly rare ability to connect with his fans to make us feel like he's thinking of only you when he's singing. A lot of other artists have a lot of great talents and abilities to marvel at but Elvis has a quality that no one can quite explain except to say he's Elvis.
You’ve very quickly become one of my favorite reaction channels to watch. I just love your personality, your obvious love for music listening to all genres and you’ve got a million $ smile! I’ve always absolutely loved this song!
Honey you would have fit right in acting the fool for Elvis. He was an Icon and drove the girls wild for sure.
Your reactions are always super entertaining and insightful, regardless of the content. It's no surprise how quickly your channel has grown. This was absolutely one of my favorite songs when it was released, even though I didn't even know the story behind the song.
She's got an amazing voice
Yes this song is an absolute classic but don't sleep on the rest of the album. It's all fire!
"Best New Country Artist" award, was unluckily regarded as the kiss of death for a US singing career back in '90.
You sounded just like her. 😳 Your voice is angelic. Have you ever taken singing lessons? You sound like a natural. ❤️
She has a good, unique voice but I feel like it just reminds me of the legendary Janis Joplin, the queen of raspy voices. Both singers are amazing!
I saw Alannah in concert when this song first came out (she was opening for Robert Plant on one of his solo tours). She sounded great live, her whole set was really good.
I've watched all your Elvis reactions & love them! But they're 70's Elvis (again, love it!) but you should also check out early Elvis in the 50's when he first took the world by storm.
I was a baby when that happened. But I saw Elvis in concert twice in the 70's. I got a good close look & living, breathing, three-dimensional, he was the most beautiful person I've ever seen. It was hard to believe he was even real. And his voice was simply glorious live.
I was about 19 & into Zeppelin & the big Rock bands of the day but I'd grown up hearing Elvis, seeing his movies etc. He was a true living legend & I'm so happy I got to experience him in person.
Also, about this song..both Alannah & the songwriter have said the song title has nothing to do with those kitschy velvet paintings. It's about the overall mystique of Elvis.
Loved your reaction. You have a lovely voice!
💙🌿💙🌿💙🌿💙🌿💙🌿💙🌿💙
Think of how many paintings of Elvis had been painted on "Black Velvet"? They were everywhere when I grew up! Every where!
Her voice is pure and sweet with an impressive vocal range. Always love listening to her sing
I remember liking this when this was originally played on radio especially for the bass. Then heard it again few years ago and was disappointed that great bass was destroyed by compression that radio stations have.
Elvis became like a religion. And those paintings on black velvet that were so popular are basically like religious icon paintings
If you weren’t aware, the black velvet references the 70’s cliche black velvet paintings that all seemed to be of Elvis
I always thought the 'Black Velvet' reference referred to the black velvet shirt his mother made for him for the 1956 Fair show.
The black hair color he used was also the color called "black velvet."
Is natural hair color is much lighter.
So there has been debates about what the reference actually refers to.
@jwoo1800
Both Alannah & the songwriter have said the song title has nothing to do with those paintings. It's about the overall mystique.
Great reaction - this song was ALL OVER the radio back in the day.
Elvis bought everybody he met a Cadillac. March 1955 when Elvis bought his first Cadillac. This was a testament to his success. He was finally driving the Cadillac and living the dream, not just daydreaming as fancy cars drive by. This was a 1954 Fleetwood Series 60 in the color pink. Elvis bought over 200 Cadillacs for family and friends and just random people..Elvis was..TCB
Elvis loved Cadillacs and had many of them, bought a pink one for his mom. Thanks Britt. Have a great day.
"Black Velvet" connects to Elvis Presly in 3 ways. 1. It is a name of a wiskey that he enjoyed. 2. He used a hair dye that was called "Black Velvet" and 3. After his death many artists painted his portrait on black velvet cloth. The car is a Cadilac of the era when he first rose to fame, although it is not the custom pink convertibale he drove. This song is as pure Missisippi Deltaland Blues as I have ever heard yet it was written by 2 Canadian and sung by a third. I think elvis would have enjoyed it..
At the time , Alannah said the black velvet referred to the first public performance Elvis ever did, at a county fair. He wore a black velvet shirt & his hair was still dirty blonde . He dyed it black shortly after. The b/w footage is on You Tube.
Her voice is great! Her song Love is is also very good!
She played a free concert in my home town; her first after a serious car crash. Her voice in person is so much better than the recording, even the memory of it still gives me goosebumps. She is still one of my favorite female vocalists of all time.
This is fabulous This lady nailed it for certain. This is a great sound/song.
Love this reaction Britt. Elvis had all the girls swooning regardless of race. Amazing but true! Alannah was special because of this song.
I believe you leave it all when you do your reactions. Straight forward but always honest about how you feel. Love your reactions.
Love your ability to assess and your silliness is appreciated.Your lighthearted.Great reactions
Your reactions always brighten my day, Britt. If you liked this you should listen to Melissa Etheridge's "Somebody Bring Me Some Water."
Thanks! As a reactor that appreciates vocal abilities, I would love to see you react to Brandi Carlisle "The Joke" official video. Not only is her voice stunning and different from most others, the song is one of the best ever written, IMO.
She and Beth Hart, my 2 favorite female artists, and neither get the attention they so greatly deserve.
Literally anything live by Beth Hart is worth listening to, but "I'd rather go blind" with Joe Bonamassa live in Amsterdam is probably a good introduction. Both are pretty different from reactions you have done. Both well worth a listen.
Thank you!!! Adding it to the list!
@@brittreacts I would LOVE to hear you react to that one! One of my all time FAVS!
Elvis loved Cadillacs and bought them for Mom and many other people. I love this song and your reaction was great! I subscribed after watching quite a few of your reactions. I hope you hit 100k soon.
Two guys who were big Elvis fans wrote this for Alana ..she did a really awesome job
Love you reacting to all of these Canadian legends.. like Shania.... Alanis.. and a Alannah. Simply love it!!!!! I guess you have to add Avril next!!!! 🤩
Back in the day. You could always find portraits of Elvis painted on Black velvet. Literally. Black Velvet cloth. Everywhere you went they were there portraits of Elvis painted on Black velvet
My mom had two velvet pictures of Elvis ,they were beautiful
Mine too! 😂
The drive on this song is just AWESOME!!!!! 1st time I heard this it was ya that's a hit. after hearing your little snippet you need to sing this one!!!
Flipping trough your videos I realize again how lucky I've been to have so much wonderfull music when I - born in '63 - was young. I don' t say theres no good music today. There is for sure. But you got to dig much deeper to find it.
Back in the 70s & 80s there was a very popular wall-hanging picture of Elvis printed on black velvet, thus the reference in the song.
I absolutely fell in love with this song when I was 10 years old. She is so cool.
I learned to roller skate (full metal attached to soles of shoes with a key) listening to "Hound Dog" and "Don't Be Cruel" coming out of all the kitchen windows on the block; 5 years old.💨
Britt I was around to watch and hear as the girls lost their minds.!Crying and screaming, throwing articles of clothing, pulling their hair out.! Wild.!
And what James Hawkins just said! Your reactions are special and the rocket ride (43.4K and rising) continues because of it. Your reactions are a tribute to Elvis - you see him as complete - performer and person, being very honest with his audience. Kinda just like you - keep it goin' lady!! Oh, by the way: seems like you have your own set of pipes as well!!
My favorite one hit wonder for sure❤
This song came out when I was 17 years old in 1989. I have been in love with her ever since. Can you blame me?
I never knew the back stories to the songs like this that were my faves growing up!!!! Some other outstanding female vocalists that actually came to my attention through these reaction videos, Beth Hart and Lara Fabian!!!! 👍💯❤
Little boy smile... was that little smirk he had.
Woman were going crazy just for a bit of Elvis sweat. Decades later that cloth is framed and hanging over their beds.
She actually sings hard rock.This was her only blues song.The original video,that I wish I could see,was really good at showing her attributes.
I'm proud to have her CD, "Rockinghorse" in my collection. Back when I co-owned a little coffee shop (and could therefore pick the music when it was my shift), "Livin' on a Memory" and "Lies and Rumors'" would get regular play.
Rock and Roll was the "New Religion". Love you, you are great to watch
I subscribed primarily for your AJ reactions but I do like your others as well. I always loved this song but never really paid attention to what it was about. Now that I know, it is obvious. Keep up the great reactions.
A true classic. Lady can sing!
Of course she can, she's Canadian.
My Mama was born in Memphis in 1942. Her school bus passed by Elvis' home, Graceland, every day and all of the girls would rush to the side of the bus that was closest to Graceland to see if they could catch a glimpse of him.
This was one of my favorite songs when it came out! Still love it
Love this song and about my beautiful Elvis
Hey Britt. Just so you'll know, I was watching one of your reactions last night and you were singing here and there. My mom was listening too and she said you have a great voice. I agree!
Just wanted you to know that ❤
Awesome reaction. I remember when this song came out , it took a half dozen listens before I figured out who it was about. Love her voice ! Great job as always !!
Your reaction is just perfect
Yeah me too if I was around during his time then I would have followed him around and just be around him the closest I got was recent’s visiting Graceland and being near his graveside ❤ just a peaceful place
I still remember where I was working and who I was walking with to have lunch when we Heard Elvis was gone, was a lovely day up until then. . a workmate and I heard it from some schoolgirls as we passed by them. . . this was in New Zealand
I love your vibe and passion 🤩
Another gorgeous Canadian lady, along with Shania Twain, we have many great songs
I literally love Alannah...she burned very hot and fast. Her career was all upward trajectory until she took a tumble off of a stage. She never fully recovered physically from the injuries. Spent many years in lawsuits over fault for the spill. I love your reactions....don't change a bit.
I never knew what happened to her. Thanks for this note.
Black Velvet, that little boy smile
Yet another great Canadian rocker!
I was a lil kid when I heard this on radio and it was the first time I knew how to be in love with a voice, my mom saw it and bought me a CD with the song, this was in 1992 just before internet became a household thing so it wasn't like one could just go on the internet and listen to songs as we pleased 🙂
Love this reaction. This is one of my favorite songs
Alanah did so good here ...
Elvis loved Cadillacs. He drove them himself - and gave dozens away to poor folks, many of whom he just met on the spot. A very generous soul.
Oh my dang, hearing you sing that little bit... you have such a pretty voice!
Elvis came from Tupelo MS. Most of the country's most influential artists (blues and country) were coming from the rural areas within a few hours of Memphis. Elvis grew up in the black projects, and was viewed as a weirdo in his teens for attending black gospel churches (white's didn't do such things in the 40s and 50s) and dressing in flamboyant colors and wearing mascara to darken his eyes.
my mother only let us listen to country, and Elvis as kids, and we had a few black velvet paintings on the wall. (A 70s trend, most were of Elvis)
Written for her By Christopher Ward. He was a VJ on Much Music in Canada way back
Elvis drove a pink Cadillac. There's stories my Mom would tell of his fans writing letters to him, some sad stories, some happy, some just talking about what he meant to that person, and he would buy the fan a Cadillac like his.
