[@cindyphifer970]

Elvis always my favorite. He choreographed this

[@johnnysantovenia5315]

Elvis presley is king

[@rebeccarobbins6558]

Elvis was the coolest for how long ago this was! He made up these moves for the movie and he owned it no doubt!!!!!!! He was, is, and will always be the best!!!!

[@B0sssH0ggg]

Elvis had no idea just how good he really was.

[@cheryllicata4198]

Elvis could sing anything.

[@bradhuskers]

Elvis possessed a chameleon voice, always changing. He was soul depth and diversity personified. His critically acclaimed recordings are legendary and in multiple genres of music. And he accomplished this in a very short life.

[@tibbiedewet6851]

Wonderful... Great. Dancing

[@Ms.Elvis.]

I am so glad you are getting to know Elvis!

[@maryannturton9830]

Yup,Elvis and the Beatles took the world by storm! Listen to early Beatles,I Saw Her Standing There!

[@billylongley9580]

This video was legendary and a first in rock n roll history still awesome

[@leticiacavalcanteteixeira7668]

I love elvis presley for ever and ever♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼

[@ebb275]

Elvis was a Much Better Balled/Gospel singer then a Rock and Roller

[@EastCoastGal66]

That was Badass back in those days! Elvis was one of a kind like Michael Jackson, there will never be anyone like Elvis or Michael, they were born to be STARS ⭐️

[@friguy4444]

That Voice, That Voice, That Voice!!!!!! Oh man what a voice! Elvis could sing anything and make it rock or swing or make yu weep then the was the heart of a man of Faith in Jesus. His Gospel music was so important to him and it was POWERFUL! Amazing song performances too "My Dream Come True"! Then there was "The Power of My Love" Oh Man that man could Wail and Wail like no other. There are three takes of him doing that song and all three he gives his all for each one and they all sound incredible! On and On it goes too. Just a humble good boy from Tupelo, Mississippi that wanted to do something nice for his mama yet was a real man at the same time. An American through and through to the bone! He loved this country and if he could see the insanity going on right now he wold have sung the people back together if it were possible!

[@ChefBarb58]

WHAT A GREAT GREAT COMMENT.. LETS ADD ONE MORE IT LOOKS LIKE HE INVENTED M.T.V. AND WE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW OF IT... BUT SURE WOULD OF TAKEN OFF.😊

[@kayeaton1691]

He still the ledgend

[@peggyhatten9108]

A beautiful man the KING baby

[@marcellagamble6633]

I recall growning up in Chicago,back in the 70's,as a very young girl. Would see some of his live concerts on tv. And when he pass,in the year of 1977,when I was 10 or 11 yeara old,saw fames of Elvis crying on the street,and yelling his name.

[@eugeniasyro7315]

Elvis was beautiful, hugely gifted, mighty sexy and a legend. Much missed!

[@pamelajordan5948]

I'm 69 and this song still make me 😁😄😀

[@lewisclabough8305]

Elvis Choreographed this whole scene by himself!

[@jimirayo]

Be not ashamed! Your eyes are open now. Every artist drew inspiration from Elvis.

[@bign8580]

At 2:46 .... is probably the first hand slide ever seen on video .... Right behind Elvis on his right side .... BIG N ....

[@KarlaElaine100]

Elvis, Chuck Berry and Jerry Lee literally created Rock n Roll. Elvis never performed outside of the US. His career spanned about twenty years...yet he has sold more records worldwide than any other artist in history. Some of his gospel records are amazing.

[@ernie1238]

Dont forget little richard 😊

[@annawilliams7158]

My favorite Elvis song EVER!

[@trupraizerify]

I have to say that he had swag before anyone else had swag....

[@oldschool72]

I watched Elvis the first time he was on the Ed Sullivan show which was always live and the camera was ordered not to show Elvis below the waist.. Parents threw fits over his swinging hips..as did mine ahaha

[@lindawatts5102]

Give me this all day long your generation misssed so much from this era

[@tonyfrazier6892]

i was lucky enough to see him in concert 2 times and its something i will never forget he was a really good person

[@80HD8]

That's why he was called the king of rock and roll.

[@murphymurf6581]

I remember that day. I came home from school and my mom...was bawling. I'm like what's mommy (i was 7)...Elivis dird. Ok what we ended ordering little ceasrr pizza........

[@TheTripledz]

Elvis was known for his dancing when he was younger

[@MaliceInCandyland]

The scene is from the movie Jailhouse Rock. This is a music video he made in the movie, so that people would see convicts and ex-convicts as human beings. It was a 'fun' song just to make it easy for other folks to swallow that bitter reality. In the movie, he beat up a guy who was abusing a woman at a bar, he got thrown in jail for 6 months, jail turned him into a cruel person (he was sweet when he first got to jail), and then a life-changing event makes him a good person again. He definitely didn't rock out during the part where he was actually in jail. He was mostly just crying.

[@lizzienunya4136]

Elvis wasn't just handsome, he was actually beautiful ! And that swag. WTH?!

[@starliy_song]

After All these years he still the legendary musician who ever lived on the planet forever 🎸 🎧 🎤 🎼 never forget that always 🔥 👆 😁 🎶 🎵 👍 🤯 👏 💯 👊 🤘 ✊

[@uncle_thulhu]

Man, I wish more reaction videos were like this. Not only have you not seen the video, you often haven't heard the song either. The joy and enlightenment on your face the first time you saw and heard AC/DC was a sight to behold.

[@melissabarton3761]

My favorite Elvis movie!! He could dance and sing like nobody!!

[@sergiobonilla8345]

You will enjoy his music

[@htlong6993]

ELVIS Presley was and still is the greatest live stage performer of all time, brilliant singer, superb movie actor. Nobody does it better the King. Two Thumbs Up! 😍😉

[@jl2937]

This reaction is adorable

[@yambo59]

This was pretty wild and cool for the 1950's, the older establishment hated him and saw him as a threat to conservative values etc. - im a 61 year old guys guy but ive loved Elvis for decades, there will never be another no matter how many impersonators come out of the wood work noone will ever have his voice, charisma, talent and stage presence. RIP ELVIS

[@louieboone7209]

The king 👑

[@ruthsimon7035]

This man is so hot! I saw this video 1000 times, and i feel like a Teenager! I can't get enough from watch and listen him! ELVIS i love you forever! Thank you for this great reaction!

[@kahamarca]

This was the first choreographed music video ever made and part of the 1957 movie Jailhouse Rock. Elvis was 22 at the time..

[@pamelacoyer7435]

This was one of his first hits. When he was on tv, they were not allowed to televise him from the waist down. He definitely had hips.

[@tvgator1]

You don't really need to have to have been around when Elvis was coming up; he's been in so many movies and recorded so much, just pull out any of that stuff and you'll be able to feel it anytime you want.

[@cathy8964]

He did the choreography too and considered one of the e of the best

[@rosebiglete4119]

i love elvis dude.

[@primategaberocco]

As I keep saying, Elvis won the Super Jackpot in the lottery of Life/Genetics. He. Had. It. All. 🤟

[@primategaberocco]

If you see his Live version of Hound Dog, on Milton Berle Show, America went full unhinged after it. Parents, teachers, Mayor's, Police etc etc lost their minds. And the KKK racist types, wanted him dead. He was popularizing Black culture.

[@sarahholland1375]

Those glorious cheekbones are down to some Cherokee ancestry way, way back on his mother Gladys's side.

[@primategaberocco]

@@sarahholland1375 Morning Dove White, I think the Cherokee lady was named.

[@BarbaraJean2]

Amen #Truth

[@primategaberocco]

@@BarbaraJean2 Me, jealous much at his Lottery win. 😄

[@dinahgray5396]

Yeah...that's what parents, television & others had such an objection to when Elvis first came on the scene. No one before him had ever danced like that in public. It was "the pelvic thrust" move that got em!! Several of his other songs (the older ones) showcase that move a lot more lol!! ;-) And now we have twerking in public!! Ha!

[@debbyschultz1729]

Absolutely womdrrful!! Elvis the Greatest Entertainer of all Time! ❤❤❤❤❤❤!

[@anjakrames5705]

Elvis is the king 👑🙏❤

[@sharonchapman4379]

Elvis choreographed this song.

[@JIMMYDIANO]

Thank you man. I admire you for exploring music you probably never heard much growing up. Thank you for remembering the most versatile and talented entertainer who ever graced the earth. But I wouldn't start listening to much to Elvis, because he can become an addiction that is hard to quit. I guess that is why he sold more records than anyone in history. Over a BILLION AND A HALF and still counting. That is why he still has more fan clubs around the world than any living or dead entertainer to this day. He the only singer in all the hall of fame's, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the R&B Hall of Fame, the country and western Hall of Fame and the Gospel Hall of Fame. Can you tell Iike the guy? Ha ha ha. Love you man. God bless you.

[@arroncample9670]

The Man Lit Up The Fifties.He Started The Long Journey For Others To Follow.

[@MaliceInCandyland]

You should check out the video called "Elvis & the Black Community." It's pieces of interviews with people who knew him & such, and it gives you a great sense of his character.

[@ChefBarb58]

AGREE WITH ALL MY FELLOW REACTION. LOOKS LIKE HE MADE M.T.V. VIDIOS OF HIS ERA...😊

[@mossyoakkat]

#ELVISthepelvis!!!

[@MemphisFlash84]

Five years after the U.K. charts started, in 1953, this was the first single to go straight in at #1 and was the second of his record breaking 21 #1s (including this hitting the top spot again)!!!

[@murphymurf6581]

I came home to my mom crying. She was so upset. KING

[@lindacorreia428]

Elvis choreographed his dancing in this video, back in the fifties, those polls were in fire stations, it was not considered stripper polls that came much later, those polls were to get down to the bottom floor way faster then stairs !

[@elv5268]

THE king is The king 👑😍❤️💜💞💔💘💖 beutiful man moonwalk ELVIS Great reaction Reaction " Lawdy miss clawdy " comeback 68 please thanks 🤗✌️

[@beverlysanders4209]

M. J. Got a lot of his ideas for dance moves and fashion from Elvis . He was so ahead of his time and sexy doing it !!!

[@londonlennox2292]

I’m so happy you enjoyed this. When Elvis sang/danced on the Ed Sullivan show (early television) they only showed him from the chest and up because his hip movements and dancing were considered obscene at the time.

[@michaelcasto60]

Best song

[@georgehobbs6867]

That's why they call him the King.

[@kellrik66]

his nickname was "Elvis the Pelvis." He could only be shown from the waist up on TV back in the 50's.

[@fawnebrown4619]

Yeah, some of his moves were considered lewd and indecent. He turned the music industry on it's ear. I think he either used moves from or inspired by Chuck Berry. And in turn inspired others who came after him. When I was little my Mom was always playing Elvis songs. You should give a listen to Hound Dog (you gotta move your feet to that) and the classic slow song, Love Me Tender.

[@kellrik66]

@@fawnebrown4619 Not to diss Elvis but Hound Dog was originally sung by a woman, which I personally thing is more appropriate.

[@lewisclabough8305]

Elvis created his Own Moves! He was the first and only one to move around and dance on stage. He was the innovator.

[@kathyharze4308]

Elvis is a legend he was ahead of his time his moves his singing had so much talent you've got so much more to find out Elvis amazing was what he was loved your reaction to think that song was 1957 over 60 years old stay safe ✌✌👍

[@sandramiller8701]

Elvis presley had it all in Spades.

[@bee9045-z5d]

I love watching your reaction that was cool

[@sandramiller8701]

I love Elvis Presley he was the greatest singer a Entertainer that ever lived

[@melissa2688]

My uncle told me that the elders were horrified and scared of Elvis Presley big time back then. My uncle had two record drawers: one with Elvis & Little Richard. The other with corny crap like Pat Boone. His father hated both Elvis & Little Richard but he loved them. True story. RIP Uncle Bill. Take care & stay safe😷

[@triciasimpson4958]

Watch later Elvis the one I can dream Mlk tribute

[@christopherjon1245]

My mom loved his gospel song How Great Thou art....we had his version played at her funeral..tomorrow would be her birthday.

[@tishatittle1010]

same with my mom 4 years ago, she loved his stuff we also played his version of that song too at her funeral

[@christopherjon1245]

Tisha Tittle mine passed October 11 2016. Blessings to you

[@Dorakaz1]

Elvis the Pelvis! He was such a charismatic man!

[@richardeidemiller6739]

The man had it all.

[@Chick_N_A_Flick]

"If I can dream" by Elvis is an amazing song. It still is relevant today. It also was a tribute to Robert Kennedy, and MLK after they were assassinated. The video to react to is him wearing a white suit.

[@TennesseeMelanie]

There will never be another Elvis.

[@aidenr208]

Or Michael Jackson

[@TennesseeMelanie]

Even Michael didn't have Elvis's fire or voice. (And I love Michael)

[@mekko2000]

great reaction to a unique and one of a kind Artist :-)

[@leectcb]

Nice reaction, and believe me if you react to more Elvis, two things will happen. One, you will smash through 10k and much more. Two, you will start a journey that will bring you happiness and enjoyment.

[@kahamarca]

Elvis and Jacksons used to watch each others shows in the 70s MJ and Lisa Marie were friends as kids

[@edwinwest5116]

Thank you

[@francismccloskey1076]

The band Ram Jam, the song Black Betty. Have fun.

[@carloshi94]

Elvis was dafted

[@karenspindler1936]

He was a black belt

[@rebeccacobarrubias9547]

Yeah i too am ashamed of you! Hahaha!!! (Kidding)....all that matters is that you are now listening and learning what you have missed all your life! Good for you that you are expanding your mind and learning music from all different eras! & genras

[@jordangiles4208]

I have watched this vedio many times and I love it.

[@sarahholland1375]

Elvis did the choreography for this himself, after not liking what they had planned.

[@Axeman517]

Actually no. The choreographer asked Elvis to show him some of his stage act, and went on to re-choreograph the number based on Elvis’ natural abilities.

[@A358M]

Oh man was he ahead of his time. This type of exotic sexy dance was unheard of in the 50's. The media and parents referred to him as the devil,poisoning the youth. Michael Jackson clearly had to been influenced by Presely's dance moves. There's a video of Elvis during a live 50's show. Elvis is weaing black shoes ,white socks,and black pants omgosh his moves, down to when he stands on his toes,the Michael does when he dances to Billy Jean ,at the 25th Motown Annivers. Im sure MJ watched a lot of Elvis dance moves and incorporated them in his moves. MJ says he was inspired by James Brown but he never mentioned Elvis. I see Elvis in Michael and James Brown's moves definitely in Prince.

[@myles3856]

Yup

[@pamelajordan5948]

And what other song makes you want to rock this .

[@JustOneSue]

No need to feel ashamed. You're getting to it now and thats all that matters! TaeFAM!💙💙🙌🙌

[@brauntough9088]

Right!! 😎

[@Pixiesmom]

My oldest brother saw the movie when it came out. He talked about the song & dance for days afterward.

[@WickedFelina]

This was the prototype for all music videos to follow.

[@deannakinsman6790]

Yasssss...this is ONE of my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE videos he did❣❣❣ The MAN was genius when it came to MUSIC...he didn't shy AWAY from SANGIN TRUTH!!! Fantastic reaction Tae and I'm so happy y'all are enjoying Elvis...👏👍👏👍 Nothing to be ashamed of what counts is y'all did find him. Oh my days YOUNGIN he did have hips and he sho nuff KNEW HOW to use them...🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@charlenesheets6493]

For a long time, they would not show Elvis from the waist down when on TV.

[@jordangiles4208]

I have watched this vedio many times and I love it

[@jayviviano109]

HAHAHa 😂 "Elvis doing a Player's Club move on that pole". Yep. He was a trip. Going back to his early childhood in Tupelo Mississippi he learn to move to the music at a young age. His own Mother, along with a lot of the Gospel singers back then, were always kicking up their heels to anything with a beat. Blues Legend Sam Chapman said this was one of his favorite rocking Tunes from the 50s. Said Elvis killed it. You also brought up an interesting point about how lit it would be Elvis was choreographing dance moves when people in prison. I actually thought about that myself before. Elvis went and visited R&B Legend Johnny Bragg in prison. Elvis was there just checking in on him to see if he could help Johnny with money for a better lawyer... Etc. But I was thought how cool it would have been had someone talked Elvis into hanging out long enough to get with Johnny and some other inmates and do a little jam session maybe even dancing to while he was at the penitentiary lol. anyway great reaction

[@tereasacarty8000]

That was the shit in 1957 over 60 yrs ago ✌️

Men don't have hips! Elvis was perfect.
