Why Some people hate Elvis... ENVY
YOUR RIGHT!
ELVIS ENVY
True!
They don’t him if they don’t like him.
People hate Elvis because he was so good looking
Beautiful voice
Charisma
Stage presence
Amazing jumpsuits
And most importantly
Elvis loved his fans as much as they loved him
Only one word why people hated Elvis
JEALOUSY
@@davidpresley7949, exactly.
Elvis' voice is like warm butter, flowing down a waterfall of warm butter, into a river of warm butter, that empties into an ocean of warm butter.
😂👍👍👍
Some can hate him all they want, but the man still has millions and millions of fans that still love him to this day.
Elvis’ delivery seems so effortless yet his voice isn’t just “in the air” when he sings, but it supernaturally penetrates into the body, soul, and spirit. The sight and sound of him is overwhelmingly powerful and spellbinding.
Truth
Indeed!
You articulated what I’ve been trying to covey to non fans for years who think he’s overrated .
That voice that touches your soul... the looks 🥰
That's ELVIS A. PRESLEY
AND THATS JUST WAY IT IS AND WILL ALWAYS BE ONE..❤
Yes, beautiful. I can't get enough of my Elvis. I love you, Elvis, always.
He was a man who transcends time. Elvis is so Charismatic he doesn't have to sing. Beautiful man and beautiful song. He does a passionate bent and he touches your heart. It's a slow build. Been a fan since 56 and no one comes close. Thanks for your great reaction. And you won't believe his gospel music. He has sold more gospel music than any single artist in the world. Be blessed
I'm not knocking Elvis, my sister was a huge fan of. his as was my Mother and most the rest of the world it was constantly playing in our house on the record player .
I'm just saying that John Farnham is also an singer and entertainer, and perhaps does different genres.
We all have our favourites , opinions are like arseholes,everyone has one, and I'm entitled to my opinion as well.
Once again, Elvis was fine I'm not saying he wasn't .
Me too.
You’ll never hear of ANYONE who worked for Elvis say one bad thing about him! So precious sweet & generous to all♥️
The man and his music was off the charts. Beautiful soul.
Exactly you hear him, you hear Elvis!!! He was an original! He sings like he sings just to you! This song saved my life when I watched it in March I was grieving my son who was born stillborn five years ago it was around his birthday and I was a numb miserable mess and I watched some Elvis because he has been my comfort this year and this came on and I felt God through hid voice, his face and emotion and I felt like God literally told me you are not alone I am your Bridge over Troubled Water so I know longer see Elvis as just a great entertainer or the sexiest man I've ever seen he is heart and soul and a friend and my big brother and a vessel for God to speak through, he conveys the human experience like a friend in song better than anyone I know and there are allot of greats that touch my soul but I just cannot explain what he does but he does it!
Elvis was a human being just like the rest of us he had his issues faults and imperfections...he also had a beautiful heart and soul and gave as much as he could!
I love this post, so emotional and full of love for Elvis. Thank you, for putting into words what all Elvis fans feel😍😍
Elvis has the ability to draw you in , like he's singing directly to you. You can't take your eyes off him.
Incredibly honest reaction to a mesmeric rendition.
A bit of background to this performance - 11 August 1970, Dinner Show in Las Vegas
By August 1970 Elvis was back on top, not just the king of rock 'n' roll but now arguably the King of entertainment. The six shows filmed by MGM for That's The Way It Is showcase Elvis at the height of his powers. He had managed to combine the theatrics and bombast of Vegas, and incorporate them in his show which resulted in a performance that was almost as much Broadway as Las Vegas. Now Elvis had finally found a way in which to integrate all of his musical influences, and country music for example, finally had a place within the Elvis repertoire.
Probably the biggest musical influence on Elvis, and that closest to his heart, was gospel music and in 'Bridge Over Troubled Water' he found a song in which that influence could shine through. Whereas the original recording by Simon (the song's composer) and Garfunkel is somewhat subdued Elvis turns it into a powerful showpiece.
This performance, only the second time that he had sung it live, is Elvis Presley at his absolute peak and anyone who hears this cannot possibly have any doubts as to his vocal prowess or to the magnificent entertainer that he had become.
Well said Leon. ⚡👍🥇👊
Amen, Leon ;-)
Great
Elvis was the one singer that could sing with loud with great power and strength yet never sound like he was yelling.
I think your right. Fans have always felt like Elvis sings directly to them, not to the audience.
Elvis's voice was kissed by god ,people till this day can't understand how is it possible that this man can sing in so many ranges ,Elvis can sing anything
He is whole body was kissed by God
So many old clips of him hitting insane notes, many didn't know he listened to Hispanic music, operas, literally everything. Cliche he typically hit low notes, but off stage he can hit everything
Yes Ma'am!!!!!!!! For Sure!!!!!!!!
He hit every note perfect to my heart and ears!!! Long Live The King of Rock and Roll!!!!
Us Elvis fans know exactly how you feel believe me. If you are not an Elvis fan there is no way to explain it, and if you are a fan no explanation is necessary. Thank you for reacting to the GOAT!
George Klein's words
This song was written by Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel and a massive hit for them. But when Paul Simon heard Elvis perform their song he simply said” how the heck can we follow that?”
Elvis’s voice is phenomenal and he always makes every song his own, singing with his heart and soul. He cared so much to entertain his audiences. It’s so cool to see his affect on you and see the realisation that he was an incredible human. No dark side to Elvis. What you see is what you got. A talented perfectionist,a humble, kind and generous soul who just wanted to make people happy. Millions of Global fans over 7 decades ( and still getting new ones) can’t be wrong. The haters in the background just pretend because of jealousy and the mistaken belief it’s not “cool” to admire Elvis, or are still mislead by bogus information put out in the 1950s. If you really want to go to church with Elvis, do listen to his Grammy winning gospel song” How Great Thou Art”👌🕺💕
Paul Simon wrote the song. Art Garfunkle sang it...
@@jaredhowe2847 Correct. Paul joined in at the last verse, with Art...
Elvis, has a great and good gospel collection. He always gives it his all. What a big hunk of 😍 love.
Nobody, I mean no body can come close to S & G. Garfunkel was just out of this world singing this song. Elvis voice does not suit this masterpiece.
Man, that just blows every other version of that out of the water. No one else comes close to this guy. As a pure vocalist, he has no peer. Add to that his stage presence and off the charts charisma...come on.
Elvis is my favorite singer and has been since I was in high school (I’m nearly 50 now). His voice gives me goosebumps in this song.
And when you said it feels like he’s singing *for* you? EXACTLY. Elvis had an amazing ability not just singing, not his charisma, but that he could make you feel it was for you.
One of my favorites of his is the Wonder of You. It feels like a thank you letter to his fans. I cry when I hear it.
When Elvis blasts out of the BARITONE RANGE and brings his BASS ROOTS into the TENOR RANGE AND ABOVE it's remarkable. NO ONE SANG LIKE HIM. It's that Southern CHURCH AUTHENTIC FEEL. He mastered that. Noone could stay in that MID SECTION that he does and score hits but Elvis did just that. Baritone and GRIT. He sells the song home EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Like he's not even trying. GOLDEN LICKS from the skies above.
Wow , that’s a great explanation. Didn’t know all the names of notes . I know he’s the only entertainer who can awaken my spirit, even on the darkest days .
He could sing anything. His talent was so amazing.
Why he got hate its simply: He looked amazing, great dancer, amazing voice could sing anything and had charisma out of this world!. And people can't take that someone is so talented, therefore they criticize instead
People are afraid of the thing they don't get their hands one.. lack of understanding is a curse..
The man was a gift and still is - if you like it or not, the effect is unstoppable like circles in water - even in this time
Just that should tell you enough!
Así nomas es puro talento de ay la envidia asia el rey
It's racist left-wing democrats who hate the king
💯 agree
Not all people. So many appreciated him including other stars. The ones hating just got louder…
I love your Elvis reactions. One can feel the effect he has on you. And this reminds me of myself. Why some people still talk bad about him? Because he was so good, so different, so humble, so human and yet so alien-like (if you know what l mean). Elvis is love. Period. Thank you. Keep em comin'. TCB
I listened to the John Farnham version after this one. If the song was meant as a showcase for how loud and powerful a singer can be with a microphone then I would vote for him. He sustains it almost from the beginning right to the very end. Very talented. But if the song is meant to be a vehicle for a sincere and emotional message wrapped up with anticipation of what a voice can do, Elvis will always win. In the beginning he softly and intmately convinces his audience that he will be there for them no matter what. The build-up is gradual and dramatic. Beautiful storytelling. He never yells but the power is undeniable. It's not just his voice. He seems to wring every note out of every cell of his body. His very stillness, every expression on his face, every slight or obvious body movement instinctually interprets the message of his songs. That's why there can't be another Elvis for me.
So beautifully said, thank you.
Well said
Very well written! Thank you!
I’m disabled and some days I don’t even want to keep on trying, a few of Elvis’ songs give me the courage to keep trying…this happens to be one the. Thank you for playing it and for your honest reaction.
Elvis doesn't just sing a song, he puts his heart and soul in it.
The performance here must be the one witnessed by the song's writer Paul Simon. His reaction? He is said to have blurted out, "Now what am I supposed to do?" He knew Elvis had taken the song to a level no one else ever could. It was like a religious experience. It was as if God had spoken through Elvis, using the words of Paul Simon. Divine is a word that comes to mind.
A vocal masterpiece!
I like John Farnham. Legend. But Elvis owns this song in a live environment. Elvis’ passion and story telling is on another level. His deep baritone was something no one had - it was cavernous. And those backup singers raised the bar again. Impossible to match Presley on a stage- practically everyone including John Farnham were influenced by him.
It's always hard to explain the way Elvis can make you feel when you hear him ... he makes each song very personal , as if he is singing just to you ! He can move your very soul with his voice ! TCB forever !
Great observation ..when you listen to Elvis nobody else enters your mind.
Elvis put so much emotion and passion into his performances that it's impossible not to sit up and listen to him sing he was n still is the Goat no one comes close he was the total package great reaction for a unique human being thank you for taking the time to discover how truly great he was 😊
Yes, he is the GOAT in music, no one compares! 🥇👊⚡🔥
I agree but It's unfortunate that there are so many of his shows that aren't available to see and hear, e.g. = certain lake tahoe shows, many from between 1954 & 56 ESPECIALLY the very early ones '54 & '55 too bad not on video - but thankfully we have what we have
@@db90990 I can't understand why all the extra concerts and footage won't be released? I thought after the Elvis movie they'd do this??? 🤔
@@Wildlife_SA. yep, strange & unfortunate
@dannyb8588 At least we've got you tube now thank god for small mercies 🥺
Elvis is Elvis, unique in every way.
At the beginning of his career when he was asked: "Who do you sound like?", his answer was: "I don`t sound like anybody!"
When u listen to Elvis he steals your heart and soul!!!!
Anyone who doesn’t like Elvis is a hater or knows absolutely nothing about music. This man had the greatest voice ever had the greatest impact on the world. I mean, when I was a kid, I stood in my mirror, shaking my leg and singing, trying to be like Elvis Presley and I imagine a lot of the people did too, I was lucky enough to see him live 1973. I was 12 years old. My sister Lorraine took me five hours from the stage the experience of a lifetime.
That's Elvis. He has that unique voice. No one compares to him when you hear him sing. Brings out all the Feelys. You would've enjoyed seeing him live. I love watching your reactions to discovering Elvis for yourself 😊 Elvis all the way 🎤🎶🎸
You are spot on. Elvis is Elvis. No one has or will come close to the way he takes a song & makes it his own. He sings with such soul & heart. He tells the story with that exquisite voice with expert range. But never to disrespect the original artist. He never disappoints.
That is why he is so respected and loved. Paul Simon had said when he heard Elvis' rendition of this song: "We may as well pack our bags and go home. How can you top that?"
Enjoy your journey!😊
Elvis Presley was more than a great entertainer - a civil rights supporter, a peacemaker, a great gift to humanity.
From the beginning of his career, he was HATED because he was so LOVED!😢
Agree, it ticked off fanbases of other artists that Elvis was the original G.O.A.T. and remains so to this day. There's also a lot of misinformation out there with respect to Elvis...people don't look into the basis of the lies, they just believe them. Example: "Elvis stole Big Mama Thornton's 'That's Alright, Mama.'" No he didn't; the song was written by 2 Jewish guys; she had already had a hit with it 3 years prior, royalties were paid for the song & Elvis didn't even use her version.
When Elvis sang you didn't just hear him you felt him as he touched your very soul. When Elvis sand it was like he was singing to just you. The passion and emotion in every word like no other will ever come close. Elvis is like a God among men, when he walked on stage he owned it and gave his all to what meant the most to him (HIS FANS}. The best looking man, the greatest voice and greatest entertainer this world will ever see, a gift to us all from the GOOD LORD HIMSELF. Elvis is immortal his music and legend will live on for ever. Elvis will never die he just went home to our HEAVENLY FATHER. Long live THE KING!
Elvis grew up very poor, and had a very close relationship to his mother. She was very strict on him because she loved him so much. His dad was even in prison for a while, which made him his mom even closer.
Then, when Elvis served in the army, his mom died, and it was almost as if his whole world had stopped! He never ever really recovered from his mom’s death, even though he became a huge star.
His mom raised him in church, and he would often slip away and go to the black church, because he love their music so much! God certainly raised him up for a special time to be used in a special way!
Those that criticize him are just jealous of what he had! There has never been, and will never be another Elvis!❤
You are spot on! Someone may remind you of Elvis, but noone can compare to him once you hear his vocal ability! He transports you to another world! Ty! I absolutely love your appreciation for this legend!
The voice, the best band, the best back up singers...only Elvis ❤ Great reaction. Love his movies especially the early ones and some of the later ones too. Jealous of his talent and his great looks.
Something happens to me when I listen to Elvis, there is a humility when he sings a most as if he is living it or has lived it. Please react to Elvis singing American Trilogy Aloha from Hawaii.another song that pulls at your heart. People are always going to hate no matter what the topic is. That's why it's so important to do your own homework.
Everything you experiencing listening to Elvis is spoton, his kindness his humility his love for all no matter who you are thise hatets out there was jealous of him he still has a large amount of followers even here in south africa and yip there was only one of him he was unique❤❤❤❤
Magnificent. Elvis was unique and in a league of his own.I will stop there and let you enjoy the Elvis journey and you are so right about him touching your soul because that's what he does to me .
The GOAT. I’m 62 years old. I know of no one who dislikes Elvis. God bless you for appreciating what we grew up with. His voice makes you feel the song deep into our souls .
Elvis makes you feel like Noone is in the room but you when he sings
That's what I love about his music
That’s ELVIS. The KING. Full of passion and emotion of his voice. Love your reaction. More please 💕💕💕💕
Elvis’ music and knowing his humble beginnings is what touches my soul to the core. You can’t judge any man until you walk a mile in his shoes. Elvis carried some very big responsibilities, heartaches and disappointments on his shoulders.
You are soooo right about Elvis! The one and only, that sings from his soul !!! Nobody has or ever will come close to him !!!!! If you research his life you will find that he was a humble, loving ,spiritual and very giving man.
Elvis Presley covered many stunning songs throughout the years from some extremely popular artists. While performing in concert he lent his voice to such incredible tracks as Frank Sinatra's My Way, The Beatles' Something and Yesterday and even Neil Diamond's Sweet Caroline. But when he recorded one of Paul Simon's songs for an album, the singer-songwriter was gobsmacked.
Simon was one half of the fantastic folk-rock duo, Simon & Garfunkel. Throughout their years writing and performing songs together, the two Americans earned over a dozen awards for their work.
However, it wasn't until the early 1970s that they caught the eye of Elvis. On January 20, 1970, Simon & Garfunkel released the title track from their fifth studio album: Bridge over Troubled Water.
By the end of the year, Elvis covered the song for his 12th studio album, That's The Way It Is. And Simon was truly honoured to have the King of Rock and Roll play his song.
Simon praised the 'dramatic' version of the song in a 1972 interview. He added: 'But so was the song. When I first heard Elvis perform Bridge Over Troubled Water it was unbelievable'.
He went on to berate himself, however, saying: 'I thought to myself: 'How the hell can I compete with that?'.
@dazfletcher4085. 👌😊🤗
Great reaction!! I LOVE how you appreciate Elvis!!! He's amazing!! Thank you!!
This performance is one of his very best! I've listened to this performance multiple times and every time I'm just as enthralled as I was the first time. One thing that makes this so unique is because he orchestrates every bit of it. From the rehearsals all the way through this performance and every bit of it is all his idea and his artistry. With this being a live performance with the musicians, the band members and his backup singers... it's just a masterpiece! He looks so good and he sounds amazing. I can also tell that this song meant alot to him❤ he was very passionate throughout his whole performance. You can also tell that he was sweltering in his outfit.
There will never be anyone like Elvis❤ great reaction!
Elvis wasn't hated, just some people thought that he wasn't cool anymore, but he was the original cool. Now those same people will tell you otherwise.
Thank for sharing amazing angal Elvis.We need his voice more than ever.for the heavan and earth .❤❤❤
Great reaction. And yeah, it wasn't just in his music, he was a really special human being. If you haven't watched it yet, there is a short documentary called Elvis and the Black Community. I've seen a lot of people react to part 1 of it, and it's a real eye-opener. I bet you would dig it.
When Elvis came on the radio back in the day, he didn't have to be introduced, when you heard his records on the radio , you automaticly knew it was him by that wonderful voice.
Elvis had everything! Men were just JEALOUS! Looks, body, voice, every woman loved him!
The people who spread hate on Elvis because they couldn't match him. Never did Elvis talk about another singer. If someone asked him about other singers he would politely not answer that question. All us women wanted Elvis and all the guys wanted to be Elvis. He was a beautiful gospel singer like no other. How Great Thou Art when he was in concert he would put his own spin on it. It's the best I've ever heard it. He didn't record it that way but I wish he would have. He could sing everything he made it a hit. He loved all of his fans and yes we loved him back to the end. Have you ever hear Elvis's daughter sing? Lisa Marie sung a few songs with her dad through modern technology. Don't Cry Daddy was a tear jerker but it's a great watch!!!
Elvis is amazing!! He sings with so much passion. He is unique
Remember this was all live with no help from any technology just raw talent. Best wishes from Manchester England 👌
You are seeing feeling how authentic Elvis was...Loved people all people...Never another man with so much raw talent and charisma. That smile is killer...
It warms my heart to see you falling for the Elvis experience!! I’m. 55 years old and was 8 when he died and I can remember it like it was yesterday. His story is a tragedy and sad!! But he was the most amazing singer and entertainer ever! He’s the king of rock and roll! He always said there was only one king and that he wasn’t him! Humor, humility, and passionate about life. Thank you for sharing your experience with us!! TCB⚡️
I was 12 when Elvis died, and I cried and cried for weeks. I loved him and his music so much. I think I watched every movie he ever made too. Now.... I just watched your reaction to our John Farnham doing this song and they are so completely different. Elvis has that deep, silky voice, where John has a higher smoother voice. Well, that's my opinion anyway. I love them both and although I grew up with easy access to John (I'm Aussie, living in Melbourne), I will always have a special place in my heart, and my music list, for Elvis. There will always only ever be one Elvis Presley and there will only ever be one John Farnham. Love your reactions too btw 🥰
It’s called jealousy, his haters.
Pure vocal talent demonstrated in this performance. His back ups and band are exceptional.
There’s no autotune back then.
When he sings I will lay me down, he Truly would for people/fans, so, we Know it’s personal. The feelings are real and tears can flow. A connection to the King. ❤❤❤❤❤. There is no other like him.
EP Never misses~ He takes your Spirit into another sphere. That's how it resonates with taking you to "church". E felt the music. It's what he was created for~ 😉❤
You're right he was so powerful in his voice and at the same time so passionate and he really did make you feel like he was singing right to you. The best movies in my opinion are, loving you, jail house rock, king creole and blue Hawaii.
Hey sweetheart , you are Not sounding dumb at all , Elvis does that for everyone ,, no explanation needed, PURE MAGIC TOTAL PACKAGE FIRE Loved around the world, I've lived and Loved this beautiful spirit of a Man Among MEN since I was in my mother's womb , I saw him 3 times in concert and those were the best days of my life, ELVIS always makes each person feel like he was singing Just to them , and that was his intentions , I'm not sure , but have you reacted to Elvis singing Walk a mile in my shoes and Just Pretend , like you said you've never seen anyone like him , you never will, and Yes , he's just standing there , no fancy background , ni smoke and Fire , he is the Show , I would love you to watch the Reinventing of the Elvis show , The 68 comeback special , mind if blowing , will be on Paramount plus the 15,th and 16 of August , anniversary of his leaving us 46 years ago , and look at the beautiful memories that he left us with , like I said , No Words Needed to explain what he can and did with his music , blessed by the Lord above , and everyone is right , all the haters are freaking jealous , if he wasn't so unbelievable , then tell me , Why, his home is the second most visited home in the USA , next to the Whitehouse , he's the number one solo selling artists of all time and check out the numbers around the world who have fan clubs , more than any other, Elvis will be in this World as long as there's a person left in this Earth. I'm really enjoying the reactions of ELVIS , please stay on the Elvis journey and you'll discover the Magic of this beautiful man, not just his voice , or looks but The Man Himself , where he came from , the generosity and humanity that he carried through out his life , Never Again Will There be ANOTHER ELVIS or anyone close to the Greatest Showman The World has ever Known or will know. Thanks for listening ,. TCB 1935🕺🕺🕺⚡⚡⚡👑👑👑👑🎵🎵🎵🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏🙏
Elvis had more Magic than Most. & STILL does! An interpreter of lyrics & most importantly....♥️👑👍
I LOVE your enthusiasm and interest in discovering Elvis. He WAS the most humble, kind man, besides being the performance genius with a voice that is still incomparable. I will listen to other music once in a while, but always think, " why listen to this, when I can listen to the best"? His music helps me get through the hard times and always has. Thank you so much for your wonderful reaction. I love your channel. ❤️❤️❤️
I was watching Elvis back in 2005. There was no RUclips to geek out with others. I legitimately felt alone in my love and respect for Elvis. This is wild watching all you reactors hear and see him for the first time. I was coming out of a marriage at 23 years old that obviously didn't work out. Elvis lifted me back up to where I need to be. I listened to many of his songs with tears in my eyes. Thank you to all reactors for keeping the KING ALIVE. Much respect to Austin Butler.
R.I.P ELVIS PRESLEY.
A live recording from the 70 s. No tech stuff, just his pure voice, beautiful. No one can compare to him ever
Elvis is the G.O.A.T!!!❤❤
The reason there are haters of Elvis out there is as simple as one word ...... THAT IS STILL TO THIS DAY IN PLAY ........ 46 YEARS AFTER LEAVING THE STAGE ...... AND THAT ONE WORD IS .................... {JEALOUSY } ...... JEALOUSY SPREADS ...... RUMORS ...... LIES ...... GOSSIP ........ MISCONCEPTION ........ HATE ....... NO BRAG ...... JUST FACT .......
Elvis Presley holding court in the largest showroom in Las Vegas 1970 smashing the attendance records he broke/set the year before. Lets be honest, haters are going to hate, thats why Elvis’ manager The Colonel used to sell both “I Love Elvis pins” and “I Hate Elvis pins! The facts are what they are, Elvis Presley remains the most successful solo recording artist of all time, Elvis Rocks! TCB⚡️
Elvis's heart and soul was rooted in the church, that's where the power of his performances came from.
I love seeing the awe and respect on your face as you watch/listen to Elvis... It is well earned and deserved.
Evis captures your soul ♥️
Elvis had so much pathos in his voice...
Thank you for listening to Elvis and being judgemental. There was no auto tune back then so you heard the man’s REAL voice. When his voice cracked, it just cracked! The show went on. He was a consummate professional
There will never be another Elvis period he truly was the king
We you hear Elvis, we also hear Elvis.
ELVIS... Immortal!! … A singer for eternity!!! … 💎🕺🏻✨🕯✨ Thank you
NO ONE CAN EVER TOP ELVIS !! He was and Still is the best singer and storyteller with a song I ever heard ! I was raised on his music and I remember the day he passed I cried for weeks ! My kids , grandkids and great grandson know of Elvis and his music

Elvis is Gods Gift to Mankind , and Will Remain so UNTIL the End of time . CRYING AS Always ........... ps ELVIS is Like NO Other entertainer in this world , He will NEVER Be Surpassed !!!!!! .
Spot on! He sang with humility! No one can touch that man. He had it all! Looks, voice, stage presence and to boot, he was loving, generous and kind. Loving Elvis Forever from Canada 🇨🇦.
I think he has a lot less haters than he has forever fans. I am 73 and whenever he came on the radio, he never had to be introduced because when he started singing you knew right off it was him singing, Always so popular and one of a kind voice. Love, love his voice, but nowadays I like watching and listening best
. Forever fan.
Original is Simon & Garfunkel. Written by Paul Simon who said in an interview that Elvis sang it the way it should be sung. He also basically said even he couldn't sing it better than Elvis.
Simon praised the "dramatic" version of the song in a 1972 interview. He added: "But so was the song. When I first heard Elvis perform Bridge Over Troubled Water it was unbelievable."
He went on to berate himself, however, saying: "I thought to myself: 'How the hell can I compete with that?'"
My favorite Elvis movie is Charro. No singing at all (only one where he didn't sing a single note other than the theme song). 2nd favorite is Harum Scarum because my favorite song is *So Close Yet So Far* that he sings in that movie.
I Love how Elvis sings this song, about this song this is what I found out: It is made by Simon & Garfunkel. After the album Bridge over Troubled Water in 1970, Simon embarked on a successful solo career. No one else has earned the epithet "world class songwriter" more. For five decades, Paul Simon has built bridges not only over "troubled waters" but across entire oceans by musically uniting different continents. But Elvis sing this song so beautiful and graceful that you may think it was written for him.
Great reaction, Elvis has the ability to make you feel like singing to each person individually as the lyrics of the "black velvet" song that have been written for him says" Every word of every song that he sang was for you". The song Black Velvet is a paean to Elvis Presley, whose portrait was often painted on black velvet, and who used a hair dye named Black Velvet. Co-writer Christopher Ward, who was Alannah Myles that sings it-' then-boyfriend, was inspired on a bus full of Elvis fans riding to Memphis attending the 10th anniversary vigil at Graceland, in 1987. ! Its a great song to react too. Also i suggest to react to Elvis singing :My Way" at Aloha from Hawaii show, and you will forget that you have heart Frank Sinatra singing it...
Elvis was more than just 'his music''' he was a huge advocate for civil rights, extremely generous to fans, family, workers, his band and singers, friends...like no other, including contributions to MLK's churches. I'm unclear your reference to 'hating on Elvis?" Sure there's always haters...however, facts are ELVIS was the most loved, BELOVED, successful male artist in history, I mean, they just did an Oscar nominated movie about him, record ticket sales. Elvis the first MEGA MEGA superstar, worldwide...and he never even toured outside the US. Plus, the man served his country.
I think some people just make a living from showing hate to others, I've been a huge Elvis fan for 45 years. Although I enjoy other music, especially the purity of hearing Karen Carpenter but I always come back to Elvis because there is a warmth, peace and spirituality to his music. Hearing him sing you can just feel the beautiful person he was. RIP and thanks for showing us all what the power of goodness can achieve.
Love your reaction! I get it, we all get it, Elvis is a legend, The King.
Elvis was just unique. You are correct, no one sounded like him!! We lost him way too soon 😔
Everything Elvis does is first class. Because he feels the music. Nobody sings with more Passion, or emotion, or feeling than Elvis. He had the talent to sing any type of song. Reflected in the fact that Elvis is the only Entertainer inducted into the Rock and Roll, Country Music, Gospel Music, Rythm & Blues, and Rock-a-billy Hall's of Fame. Also documented awards at Graceland...
There is nothing they could say,whisper,hint, pretend to change my mind! He will forever be the King 👑
Beautiful song beautiful singer beautiful reaction ❤
Only jealous people could hate Elvis. I was 8 years old when Elvis died. I remember everything about that day, the same way I do 9/11. Everybody in my house was crying like a family member had passed away. My family never wept for anybody outside of family and neither do I, but I cried my eyes out that brutally hot summer day. As a child I knew that Elvis Aaron Presley was special and I loved him then and all these years later I still do. I thank God for blessing us with him even though he was taken too soon.
Elvis was for the people. Elvis said help a brother along the way. Remember the same god that made you made him to. Elvis help a lot of people over the years. Most of it. Was not in public..................be water my friend
