Elvis makes you feel every word .. he puts everything into his songs a good one to check out is his studio rehearsal of the song called ' Don't '

They stopped him from doing that on television.😢😢😢

Elvis’s career is now two years old. He was now becoming more famous and became a social pariah because he was on TV. In the USA blacks and whites were segregated but Elvis had friends from all ethnicities. He grew up with black people, went to evangelical churches and sang in their choirs. Elvis had a beautiful baritone voice and a great head voice that went into tenor range. He was a unique person and became loved and hated at the same time. Elvis could never reconcile himself with segregation. He sang blues and rock and when he got his freedom from his movie contracts, he included soulful music back into his life and said he would never let people tell him what to do with his music again.

I wonder how many calories he burned every night. His abdomen must have been extremely strong 💪

Very popular in the early seventies. He changed after his movie career and reintroduced himself to the world as a Vegas entertainer. He had multiple hits and went around the country even though his manager lied to him about going overseas. Colonel Tom Parker essentially killed his desire and got him using prescription medication. Elvis was loved by millions but destroyed by people using him for money. The Elvis movie recently made tells the back story of his life and I still reflect on it from time to time. Baz Luhrman did a lot of research into the story of Elvis. Amazing film

Love hate love live at the Moore theater. Nutshell, down in a hole- MTV unplugged. 🔥🔥

Dude, please react to him singing,"Unchained melody, " B6 the Righteous Brothers. " but first listen to the Righteous Brothers and then react to Elvis singing the same thing. Elvis sang this song 2 months before he died. This song was like a signature for his eulogy. I cried every time I saw him singing this song. He was very sick in his health at the tim,but he sang it with all his strength and voice. 😢

Hi Mike I’ve been following you shortly after you started doing these. Without question you are one of my favorite analysts to reaction videos and so open minded and very educated. You put a very special insight into what you’re hearing and seeing the artist perform. If you ever get the chance to hear Elvis’ “The Sound of Your Cry-take 3. I also heard you were thinking about doing some movie reactions of his. C’mon Everybody from the movie Viva Las Vegas is must see with Ann Margaret teaming with him on this song. Keep up the great work you’ve been doing and you’re much appreciated

The two songs he performs on The Frank Sinatra Show are fantastic, he clearly loving performing again for a live audience.

For some of the best range of early Elvis on professional television, do check out Ready Teddy and Love Me from Ed Sullivan Show.

Just discovered you a couple days ago. Your observations are so astute. Really commendable for someone who is relatively new ( I think you said that a few videos ago? ) to Elvis' artistry. So many people get lost in the looks, the glamour, the " HE IS THE KING" mythology, that very few focus on his artistry. Excellent reactions to this complex artist and icon.

Please check out the studio recording version.

The great Swamp Rocker by Tony Joe White. Elvis owns it of course, he has the dirty sensuality bang on.

Do check out the 1956 recording of the same song. Very young Elvis, different voice, equally good.

This is not the same concert as How Great Thou Art. It was the same week.

This is possibly my favorite Elvis performance from his later years (post 1973). He was in point at a time in which he clearly struggled during this final tour otherwise. Brilliant.

Do check out the stand up show version

Mike...your reactions-analyses are fantastic...on point...

There's a reason he introduced Ginger before singing Hurt. She never truly loved him.

I watched this 100 times since 1968 but watched it twice just now.

Não me canso de assistir ou ouvir o Elvis Presley. Fantástico.

Elvis was a miracle.

Interesting that you cite Raindrops are falling on my head. This song was originally by BJ Thomas who had a hit with Raindrops for the film Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

Wow amazing even though he wasn't well

Great reaction! It breaks my heart seeing him like this 😢 he was so ill, but he would never let his fans down! His body was failing but his voice got more powerful! I get goosebumps and tears on that last note! TCB ⚡👑 Would love for you to react to Elvis...King of Kindness or the short version of Elvis...A Generous Heart.

Elvis is soooo underrated.

Elvis LOVED his musicians! From the back up singers to the instrumentalist. He surrounded himself with professionals who loved him back.

There’s a powerful song he sings called “Just Pretend”. I recommend listening to. His charisma just bangs through the song .

Baby Elvis!

I just can't help believe it that Elvis is the greatest entertainer that ever lived !....THAT'S A FACT !

Hi Mike, please react to Elvis uptempo song PATCH IT UP, live 1970 in Las Vegas ( first time complete video version).

You used the word subversive to describe this performance. I am subscribing.

Never put Taylor swift in same sentence as the legend the God the king elvis long l8ve the king

Without a doubt, as he matured his voice got more powerful. Even though he was visibly ill,his voice never failed him,

Great reaction..to the greatest singer and Entertainer of all times

I really liked your comparison with mountaineering. In fact, each of his concerts in the last year of his life was a conquest of the top🥹

I'd like to add that the whole performance of the Live at the Moore show is very good. Songs like "Real Thing" which is a more unpopular song shows the versatility of singing and band performance. No two songs sound a like with Alice.

Super great reaction. Love your wording/interpretaion and made me realize so much more about this whole performance

Actually this song was written by Jerry about his long time ex girlfriend Courtney who was 'the one' that got away so to speak.

"He is a fearless performer", is probably the best observation I did not hear before. Love to hear your analysis because you are so spot on. Would love to hear your take om Elvis rehearsing with his band. Take care down there and keep the video reactions coming.

You should have 50 times more followers. Great content and you analyze Elvis aptly

Another great reaction, I cry every time I see these performances of the 77 concerts, he wasn't in good health,but didn't want to disappoint his fans. But he never lost his beautiful smile and his vocal rage was still outstanding,I don't care what size or shape he was I would have given anything to see this amazing man live on stage, but Elvis still lives on through your reactions, thank you so much. ❤❤❤

you can tell that elvis is feeling this too, while some believe his live 72 version is better i have always had a soft spot for this version as the most powerful

kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y2K1ZJqmfLZ4oqM this is my fave ever elvis video, yes he is near the end, but wow what a performance

he cameback august 1969 this is january 1970 so yes very fresh to performing again

MARY IN THE MORNING is his absolute best
