Elvis's identical twin brother, Jesse Garon, was stillborn, so Elvis never knew his brother. We've been to Graceland and it was great. We had our picture taken by Elvis's plane, the Lisa Marie. Sadly, it's not there anymore; it was sold. I agree with Elvis; that the only King, is our Lord Jesus Christ. React to: "Suspicious Minds". New subbie.
AND ROBERT KENNEDY -- The song was not only inspired by MLK but by Robert Kennedy's assassination also -- it was after Kennedy's assassination that Elvis & producer/director Steve Binder had a long sit-down discussion, & Binder asked songwriter Walter Earl Brown to compose a song to reflect what had taken place (based on MLK's speech). Parker wanted a Christmas song (of course) but after Elvis looked at the song sheet he told Parker i want to give it a shot.
That was his comeback special in 68. It was on TV and this was the last song. I'm from Tennessee, I remember this. Bless his heart 💚 Elvis was the best!
I don't know how many times i've heard and seen this great performance.....i guess a thousand times. But it always gets me! Goosebumps guarantee! One of the greatest and one of the most important perfomances ever! ☮☀️
I really enjoyed your reaction and stories, keep em coming. I, like you see parallels with Elvis's early upbringing in my own life, When I first heard Elvis it blew my mind, and his voice somehow connected with me, I had to get to know more about his music and the man himself. Throughout my journey of learning so much about him, I became a huge admirer of his music AND his personality, it amazes me just what an incredible humanitarian and inspiring person he was, and so humble too. Everybody who knew him or met him seems to love and have great respect for him, never a bad word against him, he treated everyone with respect and dignity. He's been a big inspiration in how I live my life.
Elvis is one of the best singers that has ever lived. He was also a fabulous entertainer. There is a reason he is called "The King". He had a great voice & could sing anything whether it was ballads, gospel or rock. He also acted in a lot of movies. I enjoy watching them even though they were a bit corny, but the music was always great.
You can't go wrong with anything from his 1968 Comeback Special. This was the finale of the entire concert Mandy switched into a proper white suit and a red tie to pay respect to his friend dr. King not long after his assassination and it also just generally talked about the tumult of the 60s. We had a president be assassinated and then his brother assassinated and then dr. King and then Malcolm X and others. You can hear the pain and Agony in his voice and it is so very difficult to sing when you are choked up with emotion but he was just so good at it that he walked that tightrope really well in this closing performance.
Such an amazing performance. I’ve watched it since 1968 more times than I can count, but it never gets old. I enjoyed your personal experiences. I went to Tupelo the same year my Mom, son, and I went to Graceland. Thank you.
If you’ve not done it, the mini doc (14mins) Elvis and The Black Community: That Echo Will Never Die is a MUST see!!! Another nice reaction; thank you!!! Stay safe & love much💖
I remember watching this special with my family and when this song was over the room was silent and we just looked at each other. 68 was a tough year, Vietnam was full blown and we lost RFK and MLK. The song resonated with all of us and transcended the TV screen.
I'm new to your channel but I am enjoying your reactions to Elvis. You're heartfelt talk about visiting Elvis' Tupelo Miss. Home made me cry because you get it. He came from nothing and became the first Rock n Roll superstar. Unfortunately his American dream story also became an American tragedy for Elvis. There was no blueprint as how to handle great fame,stardom and wealth at such a young age. In the end though he left us with great music and brought people of all ages, class and culture together. Maybe that was his purpose. Thanks for the memories ❤
This song always gives me goosebumps when he sings this he puts so much heart and soul in it.. they say elvis was devastated when he heard mlk got killed in his hometown if tupelo ms and he wanted to dedicate this song to mlk and jfk.. and I think he did an amazing job its the best way to end this 68 comeback special...
Oh Honey, You need to show the trailer to the new Elvis movie. It is coming out on 6-24-22. It looks great. Tom Hanks is in it. All reactors are showing it. Looks great. Bless you.
His gospel is great. Watch the one where he sings How Great Thou Art. The one where he wears the powder blue jumpsuit. It will give you chills and tears.
Graceland is an a different experience for everyone it depends where u are with Elvis for me being a fan for 50 years it was the most exciting and emotional experience of my life. My saddest part was saying goodbye to him. Please react to Reconsider Baby, Stranger in My Own Hometown, or When it yIt Really Pours thank you
Have to agree with you ... visiting Graceland was such an emotional experience for me ... it was like you could feel his presence as you walked through the rooms . Can't imagine Priscilla's emotions when she visits ! I don't think she ever stopped loving him ... she just couldn't live with him !!
This performance was one of the most iconic and controversial ever. Don't know if you gotten into any of his gospel music but that's a must ❤❤❤❤RIP the GOAT
I love your reaction and everything you shared. I wish I could visit the Presley house in Tupelo. Elvis passed so long ago, but I still miss him. THANK YOU!
I've been to that tiny house several times. The pictures don't do justice to how small it was. Graceland is about a hour away. That place leaves you with a feeling of awe.
Oh my!!! This is his tribute to MLK & The Kennedy Brothers!!! This was soon after everything happened!!! Elvis felt strongly about doing this song! The network & his manager told him not to do it!!! They said the racial tensions were just too high!! But Elvis wouldn't listen to them....he wanted to honor them!!! But he also made sure it was the last song he did!!! For 2 reasons....1. Last song of the night always sticks with you! 2. He was very emotional cuz he felt strongly about it & didn't want to cry on TV! When he 1st came out they protested against him!! They banned his music all over the place!! But the teenagers won!! lol When on tv cameras were only allowed to show him from the waist up! lol The way he moved his hips & legs was considered Indecent/Vulgar! All the church peeps went crazy!! InTupelo & Memphis they lived in poor area with couple of white families but the rest were black. He hung out with all the black kids!! He made some lifelong friends in Memphis!

Been to graceland its great . Now you need to visit the house maybe 2 or 3 times . Best time is about 3.30 4 the house is empty about then . The museum is huge and brilliant
THIS WAS 68 SPECIAL IT STARTED TAPING EARLY JUNE AND ON OFF TILL FIRST OF DEC. 1968. M.L.K. AND SOME TWO OR THREE MONTHS DURING THIS TAPING ROBERT KENNEDY WAS ALSO WAS KILLED. THATS AT THE END OUT OF RESPECT HE DRESSED IN THE WHITE SUIT OUT OF RESPECT. YES THE SONG WAS PUT TOGETHER ALONE IN A ROOM WHEN ELVIS'S WRITER WAS THERE AND HE JUST WENT ON A SONG CAME OUT AND HE SHOULD OF GOT CREDIT FOR IT. 🤗💞

STAN, my favorite Reactor: Thank you for today's post. I might be Minnesota's biggest Elvis fan. Elvis knew no dislike for any person that didn't look or act like him. This song was a tribute to MLK especially, and also to Robert Kennedy. Elvis grew up in the poor parts of town and sang in a black Baptist Church choir. Please react to "Bridge Over Troubled Water, Live 1970", and How Great Thou Art 1972, as well as 1977. THANK YOU!
A "couple of songs" you haven't heard before??🤣🤣🤣 You could do OVER TWO YEARS straight, every single day, one new song per day before you've heard every song he recorded. Not to mention the various versions of each song, which would take who knows how long?! On top of all that, you could spend another 5 years plus maybe, one show per day, going through every possible live show, and only then will you have dented the Elvis catalog!! Enjoy!! Oh, and that doesn't include the shows that there's no recordings of!!
OMG! Yes poke salad...great one. If I can dream is one of my favorite. I'm in California, but I've been asking my husband that we should take a road trip to GRACELAND! Don't know when but I hope it's this year or hopefully next God 🙏 willing 🤗. Thank you for sharing ☺️
I once mentioned The Beatles to a friend who was born in the 1980s, and I was speechless when she asked who they were! 😮😂 (my point being, of course, how can people not know who Elvis was, or The Beatles, or any other singer/group from the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s)
You’re very astute at your reactions of Elvis. Love them. Going to ✅ out your playlist to see what you’ve done already before I make any suggestions of Elvis. He has about 700 hits or more, so your journey will take awhile but it will be fun. 😊🎸🕺🏻🎸🕺🏻🎤♥️♥️
wow, what a great reaction! loved hearing your little Elvis stories. This man checks off ALL the boxes..So anyone as passionate about this man as you are, deserves a sub ..
MORE ELVIS IF YOU PLEASE.. THANK YOU FOR YOUR KINDNESS. HAVE YOU LISTENED TO / SOLITAIRE / WALK A MILE IN MY SHOES/ FROM LAS VEGAS 1970 SHOW.. APPRECIATED❤
Love you Stan and love your reactions! As I had never realized Elvis was so gifted until getting into his full catalogue and what an adventure! Also, when I traveled to Graceland, it's smaller than you might imagine, but I also know Elvis loved it because it was a 'home' if you know what I mean, when too, there is a lot to it - such as where a lot of exhibits are now stored that is part of the house, too. But for some great live Elvis, look for his version of 'Rags to Riches' at the piano from 1976 in Pittsburgh on New Year's Eve or if you love some beautiful gospel, try "Take My Hand Precious Lord." He was clearly meant to sing; I'm looking forward to the July 'Elvis' movie and hope you are, too, and God bless you, my friend!!! Sincerely ~ Christopher Tyler
@@bwana-ma-coo-bah425 Local activists said the patron went beyond self-defense when he shot and killed 30-year-old Eric Eugene, who was robbing customers at gunpoint with a fake weapon. However, no one would have known it was a fake weapon and when you do such a thing I believe you take your own life into your hands. I am saddened by the death, and understand, too, how people feel as if it was an overreaction. However, it is also hard to understand being in shooter's shoes and, it is quite possible by killing the individual he could have saved people in the future, though because it was a fake gun, who knows. It's sad all around, I say, and I believe good points can be made on both sides.
@@christophertyler3425 Hi C.T. Thanks. Don't ever take my comment as a personal attack. Firstly let me say, I am in no way justifying the actions of the robber. Fake gun or real gun is irrelevant. Lets stick to the facts and lets not get into what ifs. What I find hard to understand is the shooter shoots the robber in the back when the shooters life was not in danger. We can all get into commenting on what if, but that is no longer on the table for discussion. These are the facts. The shooter then empties more bullets into the robber and also walks over shoots the robber in the back of the head execution style. The shooter then calmly leaves the establishment with his associate, gets into his vehicle then drives away, doesn't wait for the police to arrive to prove his innocence or at least give his version of the story, and, only hands himself in when cctv is released. I am trying to understand what is self defence in America and why so may people call this man a hero and why he hasn't been charged? Now I don't know about Americans interpretation of self defence is. Maybe self defence is when a person is aiming a gun at you and you pull your gun out and shoot him in self defence. If this is the case, then in this case this is not self defence. To me self defence, (don't forget we don't carry guns) is when a person walks up to me and tries to assault me, and I block his intended punch with my right hand and then try and break his nose with a punch from my left fist causing him to go for his bleeding nose and swollen eyes which leaves his whole body open and then it is just a matter of how I want to end the dispute. Either a swift kick in the balls or a round house kick to the head, once he is on the ground he is not getting up and he is going to hospital in an ambulance. To me that is self defence.
I've been to Graceland, sadly they don't allow cameras. You will enjoy your tour of his house its very nice. When the tour is over you go by his and his family's grave memorial, it will have you in tears.
This is from the 1968 Comeback Special. Worth watching in its entirety! It’s amazing for different reasons! You’ll just have to see it. Check out Jerry Reed’s Tupelo Mississippi Flash! Not worth reacting to really. But worth a listen
This was in memory of MLK and some say JFK or his brother, I personally believe it was for JFK. He was such a humble, honest, loving and he truly gave so much ch money and actually gave a lot to MLK civil rights movement and when he was killed his friend said Elvis put his head down starting crying and said he was the only man who spoke the truth. Elvis hated segregation and when one of the sweet inspirations called him boss, he said “ I’m not your boss I’m your brother” hence all my brothers walk hand in hand. Also which was MLK dreams as well. R.I.P to our American King and Dr. MLK
You probably already know this, but NBC did not want him to do this song at the end of his special It was a tribute to Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy, who had both recently been killed For all the people who thought he was a racist, he was from the south You could not be more Wrong
AND ROBERT KENNEDY -- "The song was not only inspired by MLK but by Robert Kennedy's assassination also -- it was after Kennedy's assassination that Elvis & producer/director Steve Binder had a long sit-down discussion, & Binder asked songwriter Walter Earl Brown to compose a song to reflect what had taken place (based on MLK's speech).

This is elvis's most powerful song ever and everybody all over the world should hear this song and stop all this hate and war
Amen!
Elvis did to much good songs.i cant choose a favorite
YES!!! Please???
I'LL JUST TAKE ELVIS AND HE CAN SING TO ME... LOL❤

This song was written based on who Elvis was as a person. Written just for him.
This was months after Dr. King's murder in Elvis' hometown, this was Elvis's response.
AND ROBERT KENNEDY -- The song was not only inspired by MLK but by Robert Kennedy's assassination also -- it was after Kennedy's assassination that Elvis & producer/director Steve Binder had a long sit-down discussion, & Binder asked songwriter Walter Earl Brown to compose a song to reflect what had taken place (based on MLK's speech).

Stunning performance and Elvis meant every word
That was his comeback special in 68. It was on TV and this was the last song. I'm from Tennessee, I remember this. Bless his heart 💚 Elvis was the best!
Elvis inspires you to be a better human being😊I have been an Elvisfan for 45 years😉
I don't know how many times i've heard and seen this great performance.....i guess a thousand times.
But it always gets me!
Goosebumps guarantee!
One of the greatest and one of the most important perfomances ever! ☮☀️

Just a little bit, if you walk in your sleep and put on your high heel sneakers are 3 of his hidden gems. All 3 have a funky vibe
best reaction ever
There's a documentary from 87. It's about 2 1/2 hours long. But it tells his life very well. It's here on RUclips.

Memphis is a spot for any music lover. Sun Records and Stax Records studio tours are a must along with Graceland.
Being one of the biggest stars that ever lived, he still referred to people as sir and ma’am
Kind of makes you think
Been to graceland its great . Now you need to visit the house maybe 2 or 3 times . Best time is about 3.30 4 the house is empty about then .
The museum is huge and brilliant

THIS WAS 68 SPECIAL

After singing this he walked off the stage and collapsed and cried. He gave all he had.

There are good songs, and great songs. But there are few songs that are important songs. This one is one of those.

I've been to Graceland, sadly they don't allow cameras. You will enjoy your tour of his house its very nice. When the tour is over you go by his and his family's grave memorial, it will have you in tears.
This is from the 1968 Comeback Special. Worth watching in its entirety! It’s amazing for different reasons! You’ll just have to see it.
Check out Jerry Reed’s Tupelo Mississippi Flash! Not worth reacting to really. But worth a listen
Elvis' reaction and tribute to Martin Luther King after his death.
Did you see the new Elvis movie? If you liked it, you should react to it! :)
You need to react to Elvis American Trilogy
This was in memory of MLK and some say JFK or his brother, I personally believe it was for JFK. He was such a humble, honest, loving and he truly gave so much ch money and actually gave a lot to MLK civil rights movement and when he was killed his friend said Elvis put his head down starting crying and said he was the only man who spoke the truth. Elvis hated segregation and when one of the sweet inspirations called him boss, he said “ I’m not your boss I’m your brother” hence all my brothers walk hand in hand. Also which was MLK dreams as well. R.I.P to our American King and Dr. MLK
Stan, you need to check out "In The Ghetto" by Elvis. The live version is best. Love your reactions and feedback!
Thank you and you should check out my reaction to in the ghetto by Elvis
I hope you go see the bio-op movie about ELVIS!!! Poke Salad Annie is my fav too!!
MLK tribute.
His brother died at birth he was his twin.
Sorry for the essay! lol I was on a roll! lol
You probably already know this, but NBC did not want him to do this song at the end of his special
It was a tribute to Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy, who had both recently been killed
For all the people who thought he was a racist, he was from the south
You could not be more Wrong
It's a tribute to MLK Jr
AND ROBERT KENNEDY -- "The song was not only inspired by MLK but by Robert Kennedy's assassination also -- it was after Kennedy's assassination that Elvis & producer/director Steve Binder had a long sit-down discussion, & Binder asked songwriter Walter Earl Brown to compose a song to reflect what had taken place (based on MLK's speech). Parker wanted a Christmas song (of course) but after Elvis looked at the song sheet he told Parker i want to give it a shot"
His brothet Jesse was stillborn.
His brother was a twin who died at birth
Elvis Presley only had a 2 decade career.
Do just pretend Please
