Elvis performing "HEARTBREAK HOTEL" on Stage Show - March 17, 1956 | THE WOLF HUNTERZ REACTIONS

[@Henderson_gal08]

Elvis knew exactly what he was doing. He was a young 21yr old guy playing up to all the girls. He also enjoyed getting the older people nervous. He was aware that he had this great sex appeal and he loved to perform for his fans. This man was the first and greatest rock star that ever lived.

[@richardsoderkvist6383]

A great hit song from1956. A lot great hit songs just from that year also hound dog don't be cruel love me tender ready teddy paralyzed old Shep many others love me.

[@wgnation351]

Elvis never got over his pre stage nerves, which is why he didn't show up to the gig too early. Usually within 15 minutes of going on stage he would arrive at the arena.

[@jennyburns787]

Pure talent!! ❤

[@janetbentsen1829]

That was part of Elvis' charm. He comes across as shy at first then he starts his act and look out. He's saying I'm really a wild guy! Don't forget Elvis was the first. Love your reactions ❤

[@BrandonAyong]

Only elvis can turn a depression song into a sexy anthem 😂

[@aletmartins6940]

I saw an interview where Elvis said he always was very nervous before performing, but when the first song started he was fine.

[@lindacorreia428]

They Are Yelling Not Only Because His Shaking, Elvis Was Drop Dead Handsome ! He Was So Refreshing Compared To The Music Before Him And Entertainers Before Him ! As John Lennon Said, Quote Before Elvis There Was Nothing ! ❤

[@debbiemccain5850]

There will never be another...he was everything!!🎸🎶🎸🎶

[@bobbyecrockett1710]

My 13 year old self was screaming and crying and new hormones beginning to sprout! Never felt like that ever! To see him in person was unreal! He was the most beautiful human I have ever seen! He was 21 at the time . Thanks for sharing!

[@MaryJones-vo5nz]

I was 12 when I saw this , now 80, it still Feels funny watching this today. I couldn't explain it, I just know you couldn't take your eyes off of him. Nobody did that in the 50's it didn't hurt that he was gorgeous. Thanks guys, I enjoyed this. He had it all.

[@suspiciousminds1750]

Raw, unpolished, and in a time of "Ozzie & Harriet" out of the world.

[@pennyyoung3166]

Love Elvis more more

[@delilahmorrow4606]

Those times was great

[@angylarochelle1277]

Sublime Elvis... Le meilleur de tous les temps sans aucun doute ❤️❤️❤️

[@Jackclurichaun]

As Elvis once use to say... you take the wiggle out of Rock n roll... its dead!! Great vid guys👍🙏😁⚘️❤️

[@SweeranSwift]

Always enjoy your Elvis reaction! Like Elvis always happy and spontaneous!

[@vikkigiles2977]

Elvis always got so nervous before a show even in his later years. He was never back stage for too long because of this. Always brilliant 💙

[@iwillbetrue2023]

It was not just the wiggle and the pelvis. It was the sneering come- higher expression coupled with uninhibited vocals suggesting freedom. It was a total package and his looks added to his appeal.

[@susyq810]

I always look forward to your Elvis reactions..... your right Travis all he needed to do was " boom boom " 😂😂😂 and you too Susie " more about the wiggling " OMG!!! Trouble is right 😂😂 love it!!!! thank you soo much for all you do to keep his legacy alive. ❤🌻

[@karenestep1878]

I was 21 when he passed! He was something else! Like nothing ever seen, felt, or heard before. People can not even conceive the impact he had then nor just how powerful his voice hit you. His looks were better in person than photo or film cause he exuded a glow. People even said he’s not photogenic, because they do not capture what is there in real life. And his charisma; You knew he entered the room when you didn’t even see him yet. That charisma was tangible. So when he started singing it hit you with a powerful force that was tangible. A lot more than you already felt thru TV or the Screen. He was also intuitive! Very much so. He’d answer someone before they actually articulated it.

[@TheKopyKatz]

Fire 🔥🔥🔥

[@shjssjjs7015]

Best of the best The King for ever

[@Laura-M-L]

Wow! So young and beautiful! ❤

[@ElvisRose_]

My favorite performance of Heartbreak Hotel. I also love Money Honey from the Dorsey Brothers Show as well. 1956 and Elvis, that was when modern music began...

[@nathaniman7293]

Love your reaction… we all love Elvis!

[@dianejohnson1836]

YEAH!!!! ❤

[@margarettaylor8107]

Elvis loved danger..riding his Harley on dirt roads at ungodly speeds and down EP Blvd at 150 mph.Everyone knew him to be wild.

[@davidharrison1523]

Throughout his entire career, Elvis suffered from nervousness before every show, concert & especially interviews that he did. He & his backup singers would sing a gospel song just before he went on, because that would help to relax him. Once he got on stage, his on-stage persona would kick in. Sometimes, with a new song he had only rehearsed once or twice, he would tell the audience it was a new song & he didn’t know the words very well, & would sing it looking down at a piece of paper with the words, just in case he forgot the lyrics. His fans loved his honesty.

[@jw3109]

My wife actually watched this TV performance in 1956.

[@AlwaysEPDoris]

So did I!!

[@delilahmorrow4606]

Those times was so good.

[@ericwilliams1031]

He always had nerves before performing but when he performed, that juice took over and he would start moving and you see the results 😁

[@shawnblackwood1471]

As always a fun reaction again guys . I think if you could ask the crowd ( especially the young ladies ) what they were thinking they'd say they've never seen anyone like Elvis . Remember before Elvis main stream music was " Mr Sandman " or " Sixteen Tons " . Nothing like the way Elvis cranked out a song . If you check out Billboard charts for 1957 you see how this song took over the charts by the end of the summer it was all Elvis in sales , DJ plays Jukeboxes etc . As you know " he was just a bundle of energy set to music ... " .

[@jobydogwhisperer4163]

Never will there ever be another Elvis.

[@rustywells01]

Elvis was always extremely nervous before every show until the end

[@GayJayU26]

That was the very first record I bought when I was ten. It was on 78 and made of shellac, not even vinyl yet,

[@neillenet291]

You know exactly what they were thinking.

[@mimi-422]

❤👑👑👑👑👑❤️

[@debbiethomasson2709]

Most TV shows only showed him from the waist up...Elvis the Pelvis!

[@seanford2358]

Only his last appearance on Ed Sullivan in early 1957.

[@dcftcb7764]

👑✌️

[@anthonyfrazier8448]

Hey guys I love your channel and your reactions I know that you have already reacted to tiger man but you haven't reacted to mystery train / tiger man in Vegas you may want to check it out it's both songs and it's not very long but he is on top of his game in the video not that he's not on his game because he's was always on top of his game and FYI I think it was 73 at Tuscaloosa Alabama University I saw him live in concert I was young maybe 8 or 9 years old but that's something I will never forget he was incredible live and I also saw him one other time but don't remember much of that concert I was younger then anyway you guys rock man love you guys ❤ Tony

[@karlmay1949]

His first big song after leaving Sun records. "That echo will never die"

[@elvis78ale]

So innovative and sexy ❤ Long live the King 👑

[@ronaldholmes8525]

Back in those days they had never seen a performer move like that ...Usually a singer would walk up to a microphone and basically stand still while they sang their song. Elvis moves were so tame compared to what they do today , but it was exciting for many back then . Things were so different back in the 1950s .

[@dalemcmillan7231]

❤❤❤❤

[@Powersparky59]

Love this song was actually written by a gentleman named Tommy durden who lived in northern MI town I live in ,his daughter was a nutritionist at medical clinic I go to ,so anyway just some trivia ,

[@MetalphysicalMel]

He actually had stage fright even in later years.

[@GayJayU26]

I knew what my Mum was thinking.

[@HeavenlyPresley-Tonya]

*LOL* SUSY THE WAY YOU IMMITATED TRAVIS "LAUGHING" IS EXACTLY WHAT I DO TO MY 2 SONS HAHAHAHAHA AND THEY HATE IT THEY ARE 28 AND 33!!!!! OMGGGGG LOVE LOVE THIS

[@alexcastillo8892]

The girls in the audience BACK THEN - screamed and yelled over Elvis' moves because they : 1 - Never saw anyone on the cover of a magazine who wasn't fully clothed. 2- Never heard of let alone saw - a male exotic dancer 3 - Never saw married couples on TV or movies sleeping in the same bed, let alone nudity on TV or movies. 4 - Never had sex education classes in school. 5 - Never heard profanity in movies or TV. 6 - Did not have internet. 7 - Had never seen singers before Elvis (like Sinatra) moving like that on stage. In other words, the closest those girls in the 1956 audience - ever came to seeing a male exotic dancer - was Elvis Presley moving as he did. IN TODAY'S WORLD - Elvis singing Gospel music that praised God of the Bible on national TV (as he did when he sang "Peace in the Valley" on Ed Sullivan) - WOULD BE MORE controversial in the eyes of the media - than his stage moves ever were.

[@bluebuddy46422]

He owned it but he admitted that every time he went on stage even as a mature artist he got nervous. Oh and for the juice there was no juice in those times, he awakened so many young women, I mean really he was so exciting, dangerous, and gorgeous how can you contain yourself. He exuded sexual energy.

[@kimzwolinski9919]

🔥😱😂

[@terrygarcia897]

He would always pray right before going on stage.

[@SusanHobbs-c5r]

To get a perspective on his appeal just watch Perry Como sing Hot Diggety and Patti Page sing Tennessee Waltz, as this was the type of music played at that time. Then Elvis exploded on the scene with that long hair, sideburns, upturned lip and shaky leg. We instantly fell in love and at last had music that resonated with young people.

[@stratiogesdux]

The thing to contemplate is that those screams are now grandmothers and great-grandmothers.

[@judyzeller3921]

I was there from beginning. How to explain how us girls felt. We were in a very repressed society but really didn't even know it until Elvis came along. He was so gorgeous, sexy, & those moves. This was not Perry Como standing like a statue. This was off the charts hot for us teenagers. E said in 1973, heck the stuff they do now. All I did was wiggle. So in that short time frame things had already changed dramatically but he was the first & to me, no one to this day has captured that feeling that he gave the audience.

[@carolanow]

He was 21

[@gisleneleiria5364]

The girls were teenager that had nothing exciting at thst time before Elvis appear so amazing.

[@eorozco2720]

Elvis was nervous a lot before he had concerts. I have a link that will show that he was feeling before a concert. I ll send it to you.He used to shake his leg when he started. That was why they started filming from the waist up because of his shaking leg. That’s all it was. The bad things is that they were against Elvis performing because he shook his legs

[@jmartinez9332]

Hey I love your reactions I think what Susie was trying to say was and those days things were a lot more elegant and I think that's what you meant by fashion if I'm not mistaken.

[@ronaldhol9175]

in 1956 it was against the law to think WHAT they were thinking! lol !

[@deepfriedscotsman2860]

You should listen to one of his girlfriends called Wanda Jackson and her songs ( Mean Mean Man / Hard Headed Woman ) from 1958 and she retired in 2019

[@ricochet2806]

The KING is doing wiggle the pickle.

[@maryannspadacini2145]

I wasn’t there in the audience but my friend and I were screaming watching him on tv. I was all of 11 years old but OMG i suddenly knew I had hormones!!!!

[@carolanow]

Michael Poulsen in Volbeat is a big fan!

[@karenestep1878]

More like captivating them, like; ((he’s sooo fine... the voice... the looks... the hair.... the moves... My God all of the above then throw in those dramatic moves with the beat... it’s just too much for them to contain. They want them some Elvis!

[@SuspiciousMinds65]

Young women never saw anything like that back then....some sexual monsters were released that night..

[@starlightperkins330]

No performer had moved like this before. It was standard for singers to just stand in front of the mic, or even to walk around while singing, but not to shake like he did

[@nthdegree1269]

I have no idea what it is but there's a few songs from the 50s... they're very difficult to sing. This is one of them I can never remember the lyrics, also Long Tall Sally and you see a lot of people change the wording there when they cover it. With Elvis there's a very unique rhythm, although a lot of people can imitate the general sound, what sets him apart is that rhythm

[@trvlnfem]

If you look at the other singers of the time they all stood stiff and not feel the moves. He was called Elvis the Pelvis.

[@jetagelullaby]

My dad was a couple years younger than Elvis, and also from the south. He told me once that he didn’t like Elvis. I was surprised. He also didn’t like the Beatles very much. I think as this new music was happening, he looked at it like it was a cheap fad. I was like no! This is cool!! lol.

[@simonlitten]

The Establishment was so scared f his sex appeal that he was filmed from the waist up - he wasn't called Elvis the Pelvis for nothing.

[@karenestep1878]

That intuitive nature comes from the Cherokee Indian. His mom 98% Cherokee and 2% Jewish, they’ve verified the Cherokee have a bit of Jewish in them. His dad Scottish.

[@divindave6117]

All Elvis had to do was twitch and he would send every woman within 100 miles into a tizzy fit.

[@steelers6titles]

The first RCA hit. This predates Ed Sullivan. Bandleader Tommy Dorsey hosted "Stage Show".

[@OldMan339]

Suzi, what are you thinking about? Lol

[@darrenkoglin3423]

There shouting&screaming as no livee performer had ever performed in that manner that they where witnessing

[@karenestep1878]

If he was born 50 years earlier he’d have been called a “breed” Being half American Indian. The Cherokee were not nomadic like the other Indians. They held land. Believed to be from the bit of Jewish influence. The Jewish though they roomed some they were farmers, where as most other tribes following the bison herds.

[@margretalbrecht95]

Was this the Ed Sullivan Show? Because there they Showd him almoust only from the waist up, because he was too sexy.

[@elvis78ale]

No,this is "The Dorsey Brother's Stage Show". His 3 performances at "The Ed Sullivan Show" were later, and only in the last one of January 6 1957 he was filmed from the waist up 👍🏻

[@Canucklehead557]

Ot was L's fault everyone else was preoccupied. Really? That's just stoopid.

[@Elvishhuhhuh]

Yet man u made me fall of my chaur in such laughter wen u said tht phase

[@elviscool9822]

U a nice couple and funny
