HE WILL BE THE KING FOREVER❤❤❤❤
To a true fan Elvis Presley is not dead ❤❤
As sick and tired as he was, his voice never failed! He gave 1 more performance after this and then 6 weeks later he left us! The WORLD was devastated and still today we all miss him! Thanks to all the young people who love and enjoy him!! He was afraid he would be forgotten!! 47 years later, he is still here in his he left us!!! Luv him so much!!!❤❤❤
Cry every-time I hear this.
Also enjoy see someone as young as you listening to him.
The legend
his heart was jacked, liver was jacked, lungs were jacked and had more problems than that, it's amazing he was able to perform at all.
Please react to Elvis singing Bridge over troubled water live!!!!❤ his voice is AMAZING, also he was younger so you get to see a different era of Elvis
Elvis was a SPECIAL ONE. No, he was THE SPECIAL ONE. It wasn't only that he was so God-gifted, it was that HE WAS THE GIFT.
Well said xx
Born 89 in Sweden. Can only say that if I had been born earlier I would have given up everything just to go to the USA to see this wonderful artist. There is no one like him even today. Elvis will always be number one. Been listening to Elvis since I was little.
Elvis was not well and continued to give us his all ❤️
Thank god for elvis ❤
This was 21 june. Last show was 26 june
This was just before he left us. He was sick. He wasn't heavy from eating , his body was shutting down due to many physical problems due to the fact that NOT ONE OF HIS ENTOURAGE TRIED TO HELP HIM. SHAME ON ALL OF THEM.
Elvis was only 42 years old when he died in -77.. This was the last concert that was filmed...
Extremely hard to watch, but that voice to the end just blows me away every time. You might like 68 comeback, opening “trouble and guitar man” amazing!!!
Thanks buddy
Elvis Presley died of a broken heart and loneliness
Ok Trevor. I just found your channel now. You have to listen to Elvis - and watch Elvis. He's the GOAT. No one is in his class.
Wish I was born before 1993, so I could watch the king👑
SOOOOO many songs for you to see from him, too many to list. Have to see him Live!!🔥 Elvis was heavily depressed, insomniac, glaucoma, prostate paralysis, problems with pills for sleep, exhaustion and injuries. Dude went through it all
Thanks for checking it out listen to Elvis trying to get to you 68 come back special ❤❤❤😊
It's beautiful and sad at the same time
That little boy smile!! Still gives me chills to this day!! Always and forever the King!!
Elvis Presley - King of Music! one of his last two recordings: "Way Down" (song of the year 1978) and "Moody Blue" (last number one hit shortly before his death). It shows that Elvis was and still is the greatest.
You started with the most bittersweet performance by Elvis. If you delve into his catalog & life, you will find a lot to love. He's iconic for good reason.
Mike Handley, Emmy Award-winning TV/radio spokesman & film narrator, said:
"When healthy and serious, he was flat-out the world's greatest singer. In his voice, he possessed the most beautiful musical instrument, and the genius to play that instrument perfectly; he could jump from octave to countless other octaves with such agility without voice crack, simultaneously sing a duet with his own overtones, rein in an always-lurking atomic explosion to so effortlessly fondle, and release, the most delicate chimes of pathos.
"Yet, those who haven't been open (or had the chance) to explore some of Presley's most brilliant work - the almost esoteric ballads and semi-classical recordings - have cheated themselves out of one of the most beautiful gifts to fall out of the sky in a lifetime.
"Fortunately, this magnificent musical instrument reached its perfection around 1960, the same time the recording industry finally achieved sound reproduction rivaling that of today. So, it's never too late to explore and cherish a well-preserved miracle, as a simple trip to the record store will truly produce unparalleled chills and thrills, for the rest of your life; and then you'll finally understand the best reason this guy never goes away."
I've been an Elvis fan for many, many years, but I haven't heard that before. Thank you for posting it it's beautiful and so true.
@@jackielouise7538 He summed up Elvis well.
ELVIS PASSED AWAY JUST 6 WEEKS LATER AFTER THIS CONCERT. HE WAS 42 YEARS OLD AND HE PASSED ON THE 16 OF AUGUST 1977. I WAS 24 YEARS OLD. MY LIFE JUST FELL APART. WE REALLY COULD’T BELIEVE IT. HE WAS SO BEAUTIFUL AND SO POWERFUL TILL THE END .ELVIS HATED TO LET HIS FANS DOWN.HE THOUGHT SO MUCH OF US. HIS SO CALLED MANGER DROVE ELVIS INTO THE GROUND. WHILE ELVIS WAS PERFORMING HE WAS LOOSING MILLIONS ON GAMBLING. ELVIS WAS HIS MEAL TICKET. ELVIS WAS GIVEN DRUGS BY HIS DOCTORS.UPPERS AND DOWNERS . IT WAS TOTALLY DISGUSTING THE WAY HE WAS TREATED. ELVIS WILL ALWAYS BE THE KINDEST AND THE GREATEST ENTERTAINER THAT EVER LIVED.NO ONE CAN POSSIBLY TOUCH HIM. I MISS HIM EVERY SINGLE SECOND OF EVERY SINGLE DAY. GREAT REACTION 👑DENISE FROM YORKSHIRE ENGLAND 🏴👑♾️♾️♾️♾️♾️♾️
His beautiful voice never failed him ❤. Only person i miss who i never met. Was born 4 years after his death 😢
Look at the crowd. Look at there faces. They all knew something. I never make it through this song without crying. Good night Graceland. Texas

new sub :)
cheers!
Elvis appeared ill on his last 1977 shows due to multiple health issues such as high blood pressure and liver damage. His dependence on prescription drugs further worsened his condition. And despite all that, his voice is amazing, unparalleled.
I recommend you to see his live performances from 1970.
don't forget the twisted colon (very painful), glaucoma, liver disease, so even though he was dependent on the meds, he did have reasons for taking them. For this reason I put him in a different category than artists like Beatles, Stones, Hendrix, who all used drugs for recreation.
Play more Elvis and I’ll subscribe you’ve just went down a rabbit hole that will boggle your mind. This man was pure genius and even at his last breath and gravely ill he gave it is all.
Many could probably write the music but only Elvis could really tell the story! Forever the King 👑 ⚡️
Still has that little boy smile..Chrisma g
Muito doente, e ainda maravilhoso ❤
Please react to more Elvis ❤
I saw this show on tv with my father, a musician, who usually was very critical towards fakes and poor performances. Even he was deeply impressed by Elvis' voice and performance that night. That says a lot.
Health problems. Pills. To much work. Heart break. Lonely. I watched this about 856 times. So far. Long live the king of rock n roll and everything else. Good night Graceland. Texas peace
Elvis performed 4 more shows after this
Great reaction to this very special man!💚
He was an incredible musician, actor, very generous, had a great humour and inspired many, many other entertainers.
Hope you'll delve deeper into his legacy!
Thank you!☀️
If I Can Dream *68 comeback, special, white suit version :-) you will not be disappointed❤❤ his tribute to his great friend Martin Luther King Jr. Elvis grew up in Tupelo and Memphis poor black ghetto’s, and he went to a black church. He often commented that he knew very few white kids when he was growing up. The way that Black people were being treated in 1968 Absolutely broke his heart! If you get a chance to look up the house that Elvis is born in, it’s nothing more than a two room shack in Tupelo. His dad also did a couple of years in prison for check fraud. There’s so much more, like one of the sweet inspirations, his female backup singers, is Whitney Houston’s mom.❤❤❤
This is Elvis just week before his death. That he was able to do what he did here is incredible, considering his physical state.
I hope that you aim to dig deeper into The King. His journey from 1954-1977 is a unique one.
The United States of America has had 46 presidents, but only one King! And his kingdom is worldwide.
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and listen and truly take in and understand what Elvis was going through at this stage in his all too short life and career. Many others just make comments about his weight, but you didn't just jump in and be judgemental. You felt the emotion of the situation and the performance and appreciated the effort he put into it for us, his fans. He never let us down, even when he was so ill that he shouldn't really have been performing. He was very ill at this point and, yes, he was bloated as you said (not fat from overeating as others would imply), but his amazing voice never left him.
Thank you so much for this great reaction. Now you really should go back and look at more performance from the greatest entertainer that ever lived - and, yes, he was an all round entertainer, not just a singer. He was also a kind, caring, generous and humble human being, as you have already begun to notice. He loved his fans and always had time for us and we loved him back and we still love him 47 years after his sad and untimely death ❤
You asked for any suggestions. Well, here are links to a couple of songs for you to start with. Firstly, the most powerful and passionate performance ever. This is 'If I can Dream' from his '68 Comeback Special and I'm sure many others will recommend this one and we will tell you more about how this song and this performance came about if you react to it ruclips.net/video/u-pP_dCenJA/видео.htmlsi=NHs2x1vflEZRdXC5 (make sure you watch the performance where he is wearing the white suit). Here's a link to his live performance of 'In The Ghetto' another song with very meaningful lyrics that, unfortunately, still rings true today ruclips.net/video/2Ox1Tore9nw/видео.htmlsi=413CaGiX9yEoHPub
I can assure you that you will thoroughly enjoy diving down this rabbit hole and many Elvis fans (including myself) will come along with you for the ride - the long ride, that is, as he recorded over 700 songs, and made 31 movies, a couple of documentaries and several TV appearances. Enjoy.... 😊
- - - - something unexpected occurred in Elvis' last couple years of life. The closer he got to the end, the more power he had in his voice. Just compare 1972 elvis against 1977 elvis of the same songs, and you'll see a marked increase. Although ill at his last show, he definitely still had it right up til the end.
Enjoyed your reaction and I look forward to more Elvis postings. Thank you 👍👍
Love love your reaction . Please try American Trilogy , Bridge over troubled water, You e lost that loving feeling. Thanks 💕💕💕💕
I saw him in concert the month before this. It was 05/20/1977, and I was age 15. I have been to a vast number of both rock and country concerts, including the shows of numerous absolute legends. The Elvis concert eclipsed them all. It was a multi-sensory experience. There were no light shows, pyrotechnics, or other such things. There were only the singers, musicians, and spotlights. Of course, there was no Autotune. Visually, his showmanship was unmatched, auditorially, not only was his voice unmatched, but recordings and videos cannot begin to capture the musical experience, with his voice backed by an unparalleled rhythm section, a choir of back-up singers, and a full-fledged orchestra. Then, there was also the physical sensation of the music on one’s body, especially with J.D. Sumner’s bass voice causing literal vibrations of one’s chest. All the musical elements combined to fill the arena and completely wrap around the listener. The smell of popcorn was there too, and made it a complete 5 sense experience. That is not all, however. On top of all that, the preconcert anticipation, the dramatic entry to the stage, with the theme from “2001, a Space Odyssey,” which only Elvis could have pulled off in legitimate fashion, the indescribable electrical atmosphere in the arena, and the other-worldly charisma that Elvis exuded made that experience seem almost unreal, as I reflect back upon it. It was an amazing experience that cannot be reproduced. There are some very good Elvis tribute artists, but the actual experience will never be recaptured.
I love your reaction to this!
I was at his last two performances 🇬🇧❤
Play more Elvis and I’ll subscribe you’ve just went down a rabbit hole that will boggle your mind. This man was pure genius and even at his last breath and gravely ill he gave it is all. Watch live from Las Vegas 1973 Polk salad Annie or suspicious minds you will be in shock. The man was inevitably there the king.
Please check out One Night With You and Trying to Get to You. Both from his 68 Comeback Special.
At this period of elvis life he did have many illness. Mostly from 76 to 77. Elvis always gained weight but would loose it for the movies . He really needed time off but he loved performing for his fans . The book Designed to die young is a great book to learn about his illness. Most of it was hereditary
Thank you so much for a very honest review ,and getting what we all know Elvis was very special,yes he was very ill but his voice was getting better and better. Thank you so much❤
SUBBED❤
THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS❤️ Elvis inspires you to be a better human being❤️ You bring me and other Elvisfans a lot of Joy and Love❤️ Welcome to the Elvisfamily..It is filled with LOVE and FUN❤️😉
This was the last time Elvis was filmed in concert, his last concert took place a few days later on July 26th 1977, he would die just 6 weeks later aged 42. In the 7 years of touring during the 70s he performed over 650 concerts, which is equal to spending 2 years on stage every single day. That was an exhausting schedule by any standards. Elvis was physically exhausted, suffered from a number of medical conditions, from glaucoma, colon disease and more. He needed a break, he needed to take time to recover and re invent himself again. However despite his health and weight he packed the concert venues and gave everything he had to his fans. Truly an amazing performer and human being.
June 26th, not July 26th
@@tomlivesay8407 opps apologies, of course it was June ... typo
Not his last concert, but his last live recorded concert...8 weeks later Elvis passed away, he was only 42 years old...He looked bloated sometimes because of the prescription drugs and steroids injection. Just like many other popular music performers, Elvis was a heavy user of several prescription drugs including sedatives, barbiturates, and opiates. His health started to deteriorate and his manager overworked him instead putting Elvis in the hospital. Despite all that he was amazing and loved his fans deeply. Elvis is beautiful inside and out. He will forever be The king 👑❤ Thank you for your great reaction❤
Lovely message Thank you Marie and Bless you. So many on line don't write that it was 8 weeks exactly (like you say) 56 days after this performance that Elvis passed AND that there were 5 more nights of concerts after this one (the real Last concert on June 26th 1977) being my forever favourite; and instead only write 6 weeks. They're crazy when it's easy to add up the 56 days! ♥
@@paulhuggett7503 thank you Paul for your kind words. This concert was in Rapid City June 21, 1977. And you're right he did 5 other shows and his last concert was on June 26, 1977 in Indianapolis, he looked healthier. And I see many people say this was his last concert and he passed away after 6 weeks, that's not true ❤️
His diet wasn't too health either.
@@user-nu7kk4uw6k Elvis was raised in the south. southern foods are high in fat. A Southern boy who loved his mama's and grandma's cooking since he was a little boy
We've all seen it, and we knew it was the last we'd ever see him, and I believe that each and everyone of us who call ourselves fans played a huge part in his death, until the very end he gave us his all
Great reaction. I hope you continue to watch his performances, especially from the 68 Special, the 1970 LasVegas shows, 1972 on tour, 1973 Aloha From Hawaii and his early performances on Ed Sullivan. Just subbed, so thank you for this one.❤❤❤
Last recorded show, the very last show was on June 26th 1977. E1vis passed away on August 16th 1977 at age 42. Many stars have gone and gone, but E1vis is the whole universe and the big bang.
This was not his last performance -- this was the last FILMED performance -- he went on to do another concert on June 26th that was not filmed, in Indianapolis. He was severely ill w-multiple health issues, some of which he had no control over as they were genetically inherited. (I subbed, & will be there as long as you keep up w-Elvis.)
The "Destined To Die Young" book is an attempt to alter history, but it fails. We all know why Elvis died. There is no shame in addiction unless you are deluded or a religious fanatic in denial.
He was definitely unwell, and unfortunately, addicted and high here on prescription drugs and overworked. Technically, he died from a heart attack at 42. I’ll go find his recording with Sun Records that made him a regional star in the South. Eventually, RCA Victor bought his contract out and he recorded the song that made him an international superstar. I’ll link it as well. If you get a chance, watch the 2022 Elvis movie to get a great grasp as to who he was. I saw the movie and it made me into a huge Elvis fan. Been going down the Elvis rabbit hole ever since. Great reaction, btw! Keep Elvis coming!
That’s Alright Mama…live on the Louisiana Hayride.

Subbed for Elvis, please morre Elvis!
Where are more Elvis reactions? Waiting ….
Thank you for reacting to Elvis.
If you would like links, I will be happy to send them to you.
Subbed for Elvis. ❤
Thank you so much!! ❤ Elvis
Here's a suggestion - go search for elvis rags to riches live from 1976. Just a matter of months between that performance and this one. It's a staggering performance at the piano...and in he buildup to it he is bantering with the audience and quipping jokes etc. In the buildup on this song though he can barely speak. It hurts to watch.
Elvis out of breath talking. Hsrd to breathe. Carrying much fluid. So much it killed him.❤ Elvis
August 16th is the anniversary of the king's death, so if you could give a reaction on one of his songs please
He didn't push himself so much as he was pushed to the brink of exhaustion by his back-stabbing, money-grubbing manager, Tom Parker. Watch the epic Baz Luhrmann 2022 biopic simply titled "ELVIS". You'll be astounded by the story.
React to his daughter Lisa Marie Presley. Video Lights Out or Idiot her music videos are amazing. Do the duets she did with her dad they fused them to make them look like they are singing together
First comment!! Still cant believe you only have 13k. Such a great energy from you, adding your own thoughts and comments on the reaction and I LOVE THAT. Been here since 3k subscribers. Keep up the great work and don't stop my G. :DDDD
Appreciate it, thanks so much!
Please do more this is kind of a sad memory
Where’s the Elvis! Waiting please don’t disappoint. Won’t subscribe unless I see your Elvis journey ❤️
Can u play Elvis aloha from Hawaii American trilogy 1973 or same concert what now my love who was the first world wide concert viewed by satellite 1.6 billion people watched this concert and 36 countries
Not his last performance… he did more songs on that concert after this song!
Please watch movie Elvis 2022- from there you can start doing your own research but it will show you a bit the big picture of what Elvis was! Listen with the volume at MAX
in the throws of heart failure, colon fcked, gluchoma (nearly blind), lungs fckd, depression etc etc - absolutely done and should never have been up there - was on so much meds for so many illnesses (and did become addicted to the pain killers as a result) and because he never complained, was labelled a junkie. Was excessive with them and his food as well, but only things which made him happy at the end was eating and being up there singing - poor guy and has never been recognised for his amazing voice because of his good looks, charisma and then decline in his appearance. And ye his cant of a manager worked him to the bone and all his hangers on / spongers were happy to sit back and let him to suppliment their lifestyles
If you wanna watch Elvis, bumping and grinding at the height of his career in the 50s, then you must watch jailhouse rock from the movie jail House rock. It’s considered the classics of all time in rock ‘n’ roll history, then move on from there. You play over your subscription base will skyrocket. I guarantee you.
Elvis had a number of health conditions. Enlarged colon, high blood pressure, obesity and severe constipation. Yes he had medications in his system at the time he passed but the amount was not enough to cause an od and due to his know health issues and the room he was found in, it's a good assumption he was trying to use the bathroom and his heart stopped. Official cause is listed as a heart attack
dr nick did an interview and said it was not the drugs it was constipation and he had Cirrhosis ot the colon
He had health issues which caused him to bloat...tragic. he had a twisted colon
Elvis had a lot of health issues, plus being over worked. If you' ll notice his weight gain only started in the last 3 years of his life
Prescription drugs!!! Not good when you abuse them! His voice never failed though! The king will live forever!
Can you react he singing the patriotic song An American Trilogy please (+1 sub btw 😅)
Not much sense....this boy in a great imagine.and Elvis so small. A little boy with a very big ego, we want to see Elvis
The voice is Elvis 100%. But why do I see AI shit on his face. I fucking hate this AI trying to rewrite our history. If you use AI then it's goodbye.
U say a nice thing and then bad stuf then dontsay nothing at all there's to much critizism since elvis Presley passed away the worse wen it started on google ok so any frigginn comenters on er as we'll stop fuckimg the like I say critism
He died having a poop!
Elvis had completed 2-3 uptempo songs just prior to the start of this clip. He was using this “speaking” space to get his breath back. There is no doubt that he was very ill at this juncture requiring a great deal of medication, which got out of hand.
