FIRST TIME REACTING TO | Elvis Presley, How Great Thou Art Live 1977

[@theresaboom7711]

Oh how he loved the Lord!!!!

[@deanmanfredi6416]

I’ve still never seen a performer like Elvis to this day.

[@larrysmith7301]

Love all you can hear his back-up singers shouting encouragement to him as he is holding those notes.

[@virginiawilson2213]

“ in the ghetto” is an amazing song by Elvis that will sweep you away!

[@marygammons3323]

People who was with Elvis said he said his leg hurt so bad and he felt horrible before the show he was dying in front of our eyes and he still gave his fans his all. From a third generation Elvis fan thank you for keeping Elvis alive. He was a gift from God gone too soon.

[@Myboymyboy1212]

There was this nurse who said that based on his appearance and all the health info out there and he seemed to have been in the active phase of heart failure. So fucking sad. Makes me want to just hug him. Brings tears to my eyes

[@nygirl9551]

He wasn't dying, the drugs fucked him up, that was why he was hurting.

[@marcusschenk3577]

@@nygirl9551 shut up

[@gailhubbard7102]

Prescription drugs for his back. His pain was so bad and like Michael Jackso, Elvis succumbed to them. So sad😢 Michael was another King as well who left this earth too soon 😢

[@bcbloyd]

You are spot on with the rabbit hole analogy. It's no surprise Elvis was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but also the Gospel Hall of Fame, The Country Music Hall of Fame and the R&B Hall of Fame. He was a multifaceted entertainer.

[@DonnaShafer-w5i]

I’ve seen Elvis eight times in concert and those were the eight greatest moments of my life. I’ve been a fan for 60 years my eyes first set upon him when I was five years old watching an Elvis movie with my dad ….my life was never again the same. I hope the last voice I hear on this earth will be his. God bless you, and thank you for sharing Elvis with the new generation.

[@khath8303]

Any rare pictures or memories of the shows you could share? I to grew up on his music. Both gmas were into him..got my brother into him and he became obsessed. And my brothers love for his music wore off on me..

[@robindehlinger4698]

Imagine going to a rock concert and Elvis breaks out with a gospel song. You hear the applause. The fans loved it and loved him. Elvis was sincere in his belief. Soul. That’s Elvis.

[@kathyfrigon3828]

I was there as a young woman his presence was breath taking

[@ruthhatfield8869]

You wouldn’t hear gospel mixed with Rock today like this. He captured all types of audiences and was loved for it. I’ve been a fan my entire life.

[@lindabratcher4457]

Yes, he did that. I think that was his only chance to worship.

[@NinaBittrolff-k3l]

Love your remarks about Elvis because I feel the same way about his singing and where he takes you. Elvis loved gospel music because it was his way to praise God and give witness to Christ. Elvis was not perfect but he loved God and tried to lead others to him.

[@NinaBittrolff-k3l]

IF SOMEONE ASKED ME TO NAME A NAME THAT SAYS America in a big way. I would say the name Elvis because what says American more?

[@janstein3857]

Elvis gave his all till the end! Never lost his beautiful voice! Thank you for your reactions on Elvis...More please!😊😊😊

[@tinaboyd3131]

Love his smile at the end .Even in such bad health he blew my socks off.Such a lovely, kind gentle soul.❤

[@ppresley9208]

Singing the music he loved ... the music that made him happy ! Thank you for your respect for him !

[@tlo3571]

This tv special aired very shortly after his death. It was heartbreaking to watch. We had no idea how ill he truly was.

[@carriemichelle322]

Elvis...King of Kindness and short version of Elvis...A Generous Heart is what every reactor should watch when getting to know him. Trust us fans! Its why we're so loyal and hes so loved!! What he did for the world besides his music....

[@trishf3576]

I ❤ how Elvis has found a way into your soul 😊

[@frankruano298]

Elvis Presley the King of music forever,, Elvis Presley the best singer on artist all times,, Elvis the voice of God 👑🥇

[@bluebuddy46422]

Elvis was magnificent till the end. His voice never failed him, growing more powerful as he aged.

[@Wildlife_SA.]

I love your Elvis T-shirt. This man is still loved worldwide. He had the most phenomenal voice ever, and such a kind and generous man. He will never be forgotten. 🥇🙋🏻‍♀️🎧🌍🇿🇦

[@kathy-t5q]

“How great I think you are” said Elvis. This was not only PERFECTION, but sooo personal. His music is all 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. He illuminated the planet ❤.

[@addiejohnson2322]

I’m so happy you have discovered Elvis. I’m 74 and he has always been my favorite.

[@traceyburgess3608]

60 plus years of listening to Elvis and it ALWAYS sends chills. Absolutely LOVE how you're learning about him...

[@jennyjorgensen9935]

Beautiful, but makes me so sad. Elvis is so sick here and his powerful voice so poignant. ❤️❤️ Thank you for your wonderful reaction. Makes me cry.👍🥰 He has saved my life and my sanity many times and enriches it every day. Try "Take My Hand, Precious Lord".

[@eileensmith1888]

Even near the end he still thought of all the fans who went to see him and to me he was still a handsome man and his voice was still as amazing as ever never let him down there will only ever be one elvis presley and never again 💖💖

[@dianekolb3703]

Thank you so much for defending Elvis! He had such a strong belief in God that he almost always included a gospel song in his performances! Who else would do that? Gospel was his favorite songs to sing! Elvis got so much disrespect from many people and its so unfair! They dont bash all the other artists who got addicted to drugs, but so much is made of Elvis' drug use! He had many physical and emotional issues to deal with, not to mention he was worked to death! These artists today do like 3 or so concerts in a week! Elvis did 2 or 3 shows a day in Las Vegas and then went out on tours! Who could endure that? Ty...keep going! Great reaction!

[@Wildlife_SA.]

Thank you for reacting to my request. His voice is phenomenal. Gospel was his passion and preference. Elvis loved the Lord. I am happy to know that i'll see him in heaven when I get there. Very nice reaction. 👍🙋🏻‍♀️🇿🇦🌍🎧🙏

[@skye67]

Dude you make me cry cos you get it now. I’m from the UK. And my elderly mum brought us up on his music. Love all around

[@juliemorgan1001]

I totally love your reactions when he surprises you with his range of his voice.😊

[@lynnetterose5333]

New Elvis fan myself in 2023. In my 70's and wondering how I ever missed this Elvis train. I hope God has made a special place in heaven for such a good soul. I've bought 4 albums with my favorite being his gospel.

[@mandyheath1793]

What beautiful words ❤❤ so happy you found Elvis ❤

[@catherinjenen5510]

Great reaction. You need to watch Elvis and The Black Community The Echo Will Never Die Part one and two. This concert was about 6 weeks before he died. I believe he knew his time on earth was short. He loved everyone. He was not a racist. Elvis RIP❤

[@patrician7445]

I really like his "Crying In the Chapel," "It Is No Secret," and "Why Me Lord?"

[@memphisflashfan1]

Oh, it is no secret is a phenomenal song.

[@learnenglishwithblaine9604]

I love those!!!

[@kevinboothgospelministries]

I've just discovered your channel today and I just want to say thank you. I have watched you discover the magic of Elvis and it takes me back to my discovery almost 50 years ago. Thank you for doing this!

[@jamesbrewer4614]

I'm enjoying your Elvis reactions. "You'll Never Walk Alone " is perfectly what you are looking for. You're going to be pleasantly surprised with so many more.

[@memphisflashfan1]

That’s a great song.

[@yourdaywillcome5694]

I cried my eyes out every time I hear him singing this and no one stands alone

[@lastrada52]

This is one of his last concerts, weeks before passing away. He's visibly not in the best of health. But what's amazing is that his voice never fails him. The power, clarity, intonation, and range are so incredible. From a rock n' roll/country singer? The smile on his face when he hits that first big note verifies that he loves this music so much. Your assessment is eloquent & right on target. "An American Trilogy" live at the Hawaiian concert is another breathtaking performance along with "Steamroller Blues."

[@janedc5ch319]

It hurts to see him like this .I have loved him since he first came out . He was so special and caring. He gave so much . ❤❤❤

[@teresahartley6600]

Bless his precious heart. He gave such a wonderful performance just two months before he died. My heart is still broken.

[@camiamayo5093]

Thank you for the reaction to Elvis he was the best he loved gospel music

[@davidpresley7949]

Mate first of all I love your T shirt Second I love your reaction Mate once you start to listen to Elvis It becomes an obsession Trust me I know You feel like you know him and he's your best friend That is why you defend him Because he becomes a part of you Don't worry We are all obsessed with Elvis lol It's a natural thing With Elvis you can't go wrong It's his voice It penetrates into your soul Great reaction

[@kathy-t5q]

Everything you wrote is exactly how I feel, felt, and think.

[@mandyheath1793]

We will defend Elvis all our life , because we know the true soul of this man, and how beautiful he was inside and out, we know he made mistakes in life, like we all do, but something about him you can't describe, he was magnetic, and his voice just goes deep into your soul, I'm so happy you can now experience that, fantastic reaction ❤

[@hollywinningham6375]

Yesssss ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@bee3541-y7s]

Too right we will ❤

[@ruthanncrandall3978]

Elvis gave his all to his fans right till the end.Six weeks after this concert he left us.

[@erlindamartinez8521]

Wow amazing voice. Love love your reaction 💕💕💕💕

[@Cath1027]

This takes me back to when we lost him. I was 13 when Elvis died, my mam woke me up to tell me. We were both crying we loved him so much. He died less than 7 weeks after this performance. They were playing his songs on the radio non stop. This was played as one of the tributes. I live in Ireland 🇮🇪 it was night time when there was a break from normal TV to announce Elvis died. I still love Elvis to this day. Love your tee shirt. Elvis is the king. I envy you only starting off on your journey of Elvis. He didn’t sing that he prayed.

[@zenaidaabejar8086]

Teary eyes listening to this song and others.Kind , generous and humble🥰🥰🥰

[@janealdworth4341]

I was 13 when he died too, cried all day. No-one will ever have the impact he did and still does. Glad a new generation are getting to see the magic that is ELVIS

[@justdea5757]

ELVIS DOES GRAB YOUR SOUL!! PEOPLE RELATE TO HIM BECAUSE HE SANG WITH SUCH EMOTIONS! THIS WAS HIS LAST CONCERT...INDIANAPOLIS, IN JUNE 1977. HE DIES ONLY A FEW MONTHS LATER AUGUST 1977!! GOD I MISS HIM!!!

[@katinacobb2814]

ELVIS was one of the most Compassionate and giving people ever!!

[@hillsboroughguy]

Thank you for reacting to Elvis and defending him as this is something us fans had to do for a long time because so many were simply either racist or misinformed about the truth vs the false rumors. Us fans truly appreciate you - thank you.

[@MarieFletcher-tw7io]

Hi CVTECK1. Great video.. As ill as Elvis was he still gave a great performance. coz he gave what he's fans wanted. they'll never b another Elvis not in a million years. may he rest in eternal peace Amen 🙏💐🕊️ from 🇬🇧 an old cockney gal.😄👍👍

[@sandybishop6867]

I go to church every time I listen to his Gospel Music!❤️❤️🙏🙏

[@Mamamia3762OZ]

It hurts my heart watching him like this, I’ve loved him for 55 years and I always will ❤ sweet sweet peace Elvis for now you have your beloved Lisa with you 😢

[@kathrynbeard6240]

Dude you are spot on about how I feel about Elvis. Spot freaking on!!!!! Unchained melody is something I have to watch him sing EVERYDAY with. You could see how how much he appreciated, loved, and just felt the music. It’s spiritual!!!! Even though they weren’t his original songs, he made them his. All the feels right there man! Hes always on my mind lol! I hate the documentary from Pricilla’s view. But I appreciate your view about him

[@sophiacanty3807]

Definitely watch Elvis generous heart

[@patrician7445]

Absolutely love everything you said here in your true understanding and appreciation of the wonder of Elvis. Thank you!!

[@Code9]

If you want him to take you to church, then check out his live performance of "American Trilogy" (the "Aloha Live from Hawaii" concert that was seen by a record-breaking world-wide audience of over 1 billion, via satellite, January 1973. It's pure "church" from his first breath to the final, spectacular note. The three songs in the trilogy are "Dixie", "All My Trials" (sometimes known as "Hush Little Baby" and "The Battle Hymn of the Republic". Simply breathtaking. Mesmerizing. Don't know any better way to describe it.

[@lindawhite5006]

ELVIS WILL ALWAYS BE THE KING! I was born in 1957, and have seen all his movies and videos many times! I've been to Graceland many times. People will always love him...if they take the time to listen to him!

[@leonardthegreat]

What a voice that man had! Tears me apart. Beautiful in every way. He will never be forgotten. Thank you for this.

[@lindawhite5006]

Every time I hear this...I feel it in my gut, heart and soul! He (ELVIS) was a very good and GOD gifted man! I don't care what anyone else says about this man!!!

[@tiffanypalmer9918]

Love Elvis, Love You. Thanks for keeping his memory alive. ❤

[@williamthornell8051]

This was his last concert and his voice never, ever failed him!

[@williamthornell8051]

Oh, and also the most beautiful voice in the world.

[@beegee1960]

In a way I envy you getting to experience all of this for the first time. I am 81 and was in high school when Elvis hit the big time. The girls all wanted him and the boys all wanted to be him. We had never seen anything like him and it changed our generation and every generation following. And to this day, I still have never seen anything like him.

[@BettyWright-y9c]

so bittersweet. this is the year he died. I loved him since I was twelve,, I am 76 and I still do,

[@lillianthomas8445]

The song titled Hurt from this concert in 1977 is incredible. Six weeks before he passed way.

[@bertsplci]

8 weeks

[@jerper8963]

Well said, my friend.

[@marion_R]

Thank you for charing your thoughts and defending him!💚 Totally agree with you! There are still people , (whose channel have 1.5 million subscribers), who give the people watching, wrong quotes and lies to prove that he was racist. That post was from 10 month ago. Everybody, who does a little bit of research, knows that he was the total opposite. And if you want to comment on their video, they say that you have to share the video with 5 people. I would say, his music saved my live. I would like to know why you thought, you would never listen to him. My favourite gospel is *crying in the chapel* (1960)...no..."You'll never walk alone" (1967, studio version)...no..."Peace in the valley" (1957 Ed Sullivan Show)...😅 Love your shirt and your reaction was brilliant! Welcome in the Elvis rabbit hole 😊 Thank you!💚

[@patriciaesposito8941]

So excited you found Elvis’ true being. You remind me of Blac Elvis the reactor. He was so funny cuz he couldn’t believe he’d reached his age and never even heard “Hound Dog.” He is now probably one of Elvis’ greatest fans, though he’s not an OG like me😂. I’ve been a fan since the 50’s when Elvis first hit the scene. Thank you for your honesty and fairness. I believe Elvis music will bless you.

[@JohnMedina-kj1ng]

I've seen Elvis perform 5 times. Elvis was a great singer. His songs were performances. Watching Elvis in person was unreal. You never knew what he was going to do. Elvis loved his fans. Elvis loved Jesus and his gospel songs are so beautiful. God bless you and keep up the great Job. Elvis loved Karate.

[@robbansa]

A really really great Elvis reaction. You want more gospel Elvis, try You'll Never Walk Alone studio version. Great looking tshirt, that's how it begins, small stuff and after a while you have Elvis all around your house.😊 Great that you defend Elvis amongst your friends, maybe you should invite the unbeliever to your reaction and we get 2 for 1. I think the title The King disturbs a lot of folks, it's like their favourite artists are on 2nd place. I would love to get through this rabbit hole with you.

[@cathysmith2941]

Great rwaction i love listening to elvis sing gospel he has an amazing vouce and got awards for hos gospel music he had an amazing voice.. I love your elvis shirt..

[@wallflowerj6013]

Thank you very much. You seem like a good guy!!! More ELVIS!! Have you done “ love me tender”. 1970??? He LOVED his fans as much as we loved him

[@janesmith3123]

Beautiful, love Elvis

[@eorozco2720]

Elvis had so many health conditions by this time he died soon after this, but he definitely has a lot of health conditions, and that’s why he was heavier. He was a little bit bloated, but it was due to his health conditions. Whatever was going on in his life, though his voice was always beautiful, and he was always beautiful in every which way. He was so happy after this he was getting ready for another tour before he died. His cousin was getting all of his stuff ready It was totally a surprise. He never lost his love for his music. He loved it all the way to the end, and he loved performing. Also, the people in his band found out while they were on the plane. Heading to Las Vegas for the tour.

[@twlghtangel8922]

One the saddest days in my life when heard Elvis had died..he was so sick when he did thi show..still breaks my heart we lost him so soon but God freed him

[@marioandmarypoma932]

The man had presence, immense talent, looks and a very generous heart. He had all the right qualities that are unmatched to this day!

[@t.m.5969]

❤ I love your reactions so much and I love Elvis! Elvis has alot of gospel songs I don't think there is a live version but Swing Low Sweet Charriot thst is amazing, music definatly has saved my life and Elvis has saved my life Bridge Over Troubled Water the 1970 live version brought me back to life after tough times with grief over my son who was stillborn I listened to that song and felt God in every word i fekt like Elvis was my big brother singi g thdt song just to metelling me God is always there! You are right Elvis is beautiful soul and so are you thabk tou for the light yoy bring with your reactions

I can't wait to meet Elvis when I go to heaven

[@Trace7173]

My parents took me to see Elvis back in 1976-77..When my father was dying in 2015 from cancer, my mother and a Hospice nurse sang this song to my dad who died 3 days later. My mother died 7 months ago so this song will always have a special significance to me until I am reunited with them again!

[@phyllisnowosad2004]

I was lucky I grew up in the 50s and 60s and 70s when music was so great. He was on top of all the great music.

[@trudyrutkowski]

Beautiful reaction. So glad you are enjoying whst joy he brings. Elvis Gospel was his constant. If you haven't already check out the gospel medley from the 68 Comeback Special. Any song on his "Elvis Ultimate Gospel". His rendition of Amazing Grace & His Hand in Mine are lovely. Where could I go but to the Lord, He Touched Me, Lead Me- Guide Me, Reach Out To Jesus & others on this album are great. Of course, Where No One Stands Alone with Lisa Marie. I another gem is Elvis singing Oh Danny Boy. Tears are a given. 😊

[@gregstahley]

I have been listening to and watching Elvis for over sixty years now, and to this date, I have never seen any artist put more power. passion and every ounce of his being into a Gospel song than Elvis Aaron Presley. Many sing Gospel with power and passion,, but there is something special when Elvis sings a Gospel song, you just feel it. Elvis moved people for DECADES when he sang Gospel songs, and HE IS STILL moving people FORTY SEVEN years after he left us, AMAZING!!

[@lgarnes1]

At 52, I still have very vivid memories of loving Elvis from an early age. The very first time I got my own money to spend however I wanted (age 6) I got 3 things: my ears pierced, a Shirley Temple record, and an Elvis record. They were my favorite singers at that time. lol. I remember forcing my grandparents and my brother and sister to listen to those two records over and over and over. And I LOVE his music to this day. Everything I learn about him gives me new insight into the amazing, but tortured, man. How can you NOT love him?

[@thomasmacgowan7394]

Great to see young people appreciate this great artist and his music that I have enjoyed almost 70 years now

[@debbyschultz1729]

Elvis always put his heart and soul into his music! I know there are so many people who like to put him down! I have been an Elvis fan since I was 6 years old! My first record was Wooden Heart and Puppet on a string! I will always be an Elvis fan! And no matter what people say about him will not change my mind! I Love him as much today as i did when I first heard him!! To me the people that are suppose to have Loved him have tried to tell stories about Elvis! A lot of them are doing this to get money from Elvis and his Estate!! To me personally, there was and still is only one Elvis! He was and still is the Greatest Entertainer of all time!! His Legend and Legacy shall live on!! He was a Wonderful Man, With a Generous Heart, The Most beautiful man inside and out! All he ever wanted was to be Loved!! ❤❤❤❤❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

His album How great thou art is in my top 5 favorite albums of all time

[@SueShambaugh]

If you check out the song "My Way" from this last performance in June 1977. I personally felt that Elvis did this song more personally. He subconsciously knew that this was his last. And he DID do it his way.

[@dianedecker5405]

Elvis , sing it LOUD & PROUD , No one does it like ELVIS . The Best Entertainer EVER . that's the way it is , hang loose everyone . Diane from chicago , 6 /20 / 2023 . FANTASTIC ........... Don't worry your NOT to late.

[@silassays]

This was recorded in June less than 2 months before he died. His voice was really going.

[@sherroncunningham7845]

Even when I was younger it didn't bother me about his jumpsuits I loved his voice his voice always touched my heart and soul so I it never bothered me about his outfits I loved his voice and I still do to this day I just wanted to add that You take care and God bless

[@michaelkoscso4410]

It's been great watching you enjoy Elvis It's a hell of a journey❤

[@DonnaShafer-w5i]

I just texted you, but had to add another comment. That’s what happened to me at five years old. I was watching the last song in the movie jailhouse rock walked into the room, looked at the man on the screen, and when he sang this song, young and beautiful now remember, I’m five years old I don’t know he’s good looking I don’t know he’s sexy all I know is that when he opens his mouth, he reads so deeply into my soul that my life changed forever. Elvis has changed my life in ways you could not even imagine the friends i’ve made all over the world friends I have made through Elvis that have become grandfathers and uncles to my children. My son now at 35 years old went to Graceland to pay homage my little grandbaby who is five years old is in love with him I had the honor of that moment seeing him live waiting online in the street in sleeping bags in front of Madison Square Garden. With my mom at the age of 13 waiting for tickets. Remember there was no charge cards, so wait online and pay cash. In the roughest times of my life and my life has been a difficult one. He has brought me up from some of the darkest places a person can be. My life that day at five years old was the greatest blessing because it kept me alive all these years. Just had to add that God bless you and keep you safe.

[@charlottemoore7242]

This was hidden last year I’m so glad you got to enjoy what some of us had experienced for a long time. He was a godly man.

[@SK-rr8op]
