[@vickiduron7218]

His voice was the music! There will never be another Elvis!

[@James-gp2uf]

Nothing close.

[@skeggiskjeldarson9513]

Here will always be someone listening to Elvis. You know "50 000 000 Elvis fans can't be wrong".

[@eltiburon4400]

The most recognizable voice of all time.

[@d.herger]

I’m 60 years old and I’m from Switzerland (Lucerne), I’ve been listening to Elvis since I was 10 years old, I watched Elvis' live concert in Hawaii in 1973. I appreciate many kinds of good music, I also know all the songs of Johnny Cash and June Carter (Great) and other great artists. However, Elvis remains the greatest musician and entertainer of all time, but in all his songs, all the power of his soul comes out. One could also say that he gave his whole heart to his listeners. This way is definitely unique and I think it will remain so. Denis Herger

[@mikeflood2588]

Commendable reply Denis.

[@paulovalenca8000]

We go on listening to Elvis Aaron Presley,The King.July 20,2024.

[@aazul5499]

Im 27, I live in Los Angeles the Ghetto side South Central most people here listen to Rap and Corridos... when I listen to Elvis just makes me sad that people don't listen to him like I do well people my age.... Rest in Peace King I'll visit you at Graceland soon

[@annparker123]

That's beautiful , Elvis as made so many of us happy to have heard his music

[@joelasinger1]

Very rarely are covers better than the originals. I'm Canadian and grew up adoring Lightfoot's work, especially this perfect song. Elvis takes it beyond the beyond!

[@dondorion8709]

I too am Canadian and also grew up with Gordon Lightfoot. But Elvis... (Neither one of these guys will ever be replaced)!!!!

[@cherryclift6914]

I am English and grew up with my Father singing along to Elvis and this is one I loved so much. Light foot was great but Elvis was pure gold.

[@SetInStoneNow]

@@dondorion8709 Imagine if they could've done this as a duet?

[@claylapointe88]

No.

[@michael_jones3901]

I agree, quite love this interpretation

[@sabinekoch6208]

Elvis is the best vocalist of all times. I will love him forever ❤❤❤

[@Wixom2200]

This IS music. I am a black man, and I know good music. THis is GREAT music My dad loved country, so we listened to country AND everything else. This man could blow some music. Do it ELVIS!

[@TigerKing77]

Gordon Lightfoot once said that Elvis Presley's version of Early morning rain was the best he'd ever heard... And I agree Elvis and John was a hell of a combination 🤘👑⚡

[@kevgish]

Good but not a patch on George Hamilton 1V

[@mikelucero2396]

I finally got to visit his house last year with my wife. Such a great place to visit. His hotel next door was beautiful. Love his music. Nobody comes close to!!

[@jodyevans8120]

And still listening May 2024

[@carlasavalli4698]

Is there a more beautiful tone in the world? Listen to that voice! His vocal compass that allows him to belt out powerful notes and come back to a controlled whisper is AMAZING

[@marieskeie241]

2024 and i still listen to this song...luv it and everything he does they'll never be another....❤

[@petratroppmann7526]

Was für eine Stimme!!! Pure Magie, Gänsehautgefühl!❤❤❤ Er nimmt uns mit in eine andere Welt! Ich liebe sein Lachen. Welche Schönheit, traumhaft. Diese Augen, dieses Lächeln und diese Samtstimme!❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@michaelrussek154]

That voice!! Wasn’t the best recording and a forgone record in his career but it’s listening to an angel. Elvis is what makes America 🇺🇸 great. In today’s messed up society his voice resignates and brings hope. Was truly a once a century talent that can never be replaced!

[@AndrewsPearson-g4x]

Still listening in 2023👍👍❤️❤️

So refreshing to hear of a teenager having soul, you can't go wrong when listening to those legends, especially the main man himself.

[@tracymcginty.2860]

The day God made Elvis He WAS showing off ! 💗

[@finnmccool684]

And He turned to His angels, and winked, and smiled at them, and said "Just watch THIS one." And He looked at what He had wrought, and then He went back to His work, whistling a tune that was low and happy and profoundly holy.

[@ruthiethompson4167]

I REALLY love what you wrote

[@garywilson3308]

Love your comment and hope you don't mind if I use it, because its the truth!

[@mariaamorim1460]

Elvis is Music...Music is Elvis

[@BatsonicAbie]

My mom and granny got me into Elvis when I was 2, he was my first crush. 20 years later and I still love him. My granny passed away last year and one thing I have left is an Elvis quilt that she made for me. Isn’t it crazy how 3 generations of women are fans of a man like Elvis? Hopefully I can pass the same love of Elvis when I have a daughter of my own.

[@FireFly-b7h]

Awesome comment💓

[@FireFly-b7h]

He is a gift from god, please spead it to others young one 💓

[@foreveryoung999]

I was 6 when I crushed on Elvis. Like you, he was my first crush.Am 51 years old now, and am even more in love with him than ever.

[@chrismcbee4653]

Never gonna be another Elvis ❤

[@irn2flying]

Such a beautiful, clear, deep, rich, heartfelt tone and range that man had... What a talent.. I'm sad we lost him so early to earths trials and tests. RIP my friend.

[@Fitzliputzli23]

What a voice! He was a one-in-a-century-talent.

[@elisabethvalade9866]

You got that RIGHT, Sir!!! And I heard him last, in concert, in late 1976. BEST BARITONE voice EVER. EVER!!!

[@archiekabooom2928]

I have been listening to Elvis for yrs. (1956) never heard him hit a sour note. Bloopers yeah, but his voice was always pure and clear.

[@shandy114]

Even his bloopers were the best ☺️

Crystal clear, beautiful voice. Elvis could sing the phone book and it would be amazing. Love you Elvis ❤❤ x

[@edwardmcguire5734]

Great Gordon Lightfoot song, he sings it real good, but Elvis takes it to a new place! What a voice and the band is perfect!!

[@d.neilmckay7709]

What band? This was an acoustic recording. Elvis didn't need all the orchestral accompaniment that was added to his vocals after the recordings.

[@claylapointe88]

All he needs is some pills and a deadly poo.🥺💩👍😀

[@alvenicezarcabeleira8706]

[@nikkibutterfly98]

Simply beautiful. Elvis is pure magic. Was then, is now, forever will be ❤

How are you sir KING ELVIS in the palace of heaven? The picture has been showing us (your loyal fans) that you're living very well and happily in your palace in the heaven. So we're happy as well sir KING ELVIS.

[@peterdelandtsheer6773]

One of Elvis' most beautiful country songs, as all songs from the album of 1970. I like it very much. It keeps the music and Elvis 'alive'.

[@clarkyateman3871]

The first Gordon Lightfoot composition to become well known, this song was composed by the Canadian singer-songwriter in 1964. The tune describes a down-on-luck man far from home, observing the takeoff of a Boeing 707 plane. According to some sources, it was inspired by Lightfoot seeing off a friend at the Los Angeles airport. Elvis Presley also performed the song during the USA airing of his 1973 Aloha From Hawaii via Satellite TV show. Lightfoot recalled during a 2014 Reddit AMA that it was the favorite cover of any of tunes. "I got a lot of attention on that song," he recalled. "I tried to meet him once, but Elvis had left the building. I never got to meet him, I never did, I almost got to meet him but I never got to meet the guy."

[@annamariafacchiano1688]

Elvis has NOT left the building and he never will!

[@distantandvague]

He's still eating shit sandwiches and watching football.

[@123prestolee]

+B. Henderson you’re a right fucking bellend.

[@aronraygetchapull42071]

I was only 5yrs old, but I got to see Elvis live in concert in Providence Rhode Island at the Civic Center on June 26 1976!! "Early Morning Rain" was one of the songs he sing that night, and I'll never ever forget it as long as I live!! I remember that night VIVIDLY!! It's etched in my brain!!! My Dad took me to see Elvis that night, and it's a memory I'll always have, and cherish!!! I miss them both so much!! RIP DAD & ELVIS C T⚡ B

[@danalawton2986]

Lucky you... in 76' I lived in Warwick, RI and went to Pilgrim HS. At that time I was only 16 and wasn't into Elvis but a few years later I became a fan. I saw Neil Young, Yes, and some othe bands at the Civic Center but boy do I wish now that I'd gone and seen Elvis.

[@sandmonjones8004]

Never heard him do this number. Of course it is spectacular and he gives it an effortless feel to it. No one comes close to the King.

[@janicecarroll7590]

What a voice. You are missed Elvis.

[@Rays1971]

"The King" forever will be King.... his voice never failed him till the end! Long live the King!!

Yup. A good combination--Gordo and the King.

[@wolfie6212]

He sang it during the Aloha from Hawaii concert, 1973... beautiful song
