His voice never left him,......

[@craigbrown714]

One of his best songs ever. Short, sweet but so to the point. His vocal range is ridiculous.

[@paulinetaylor2812]

No one would ever know that this was the voice of a dying super nova, my boy was the best singer that this world had ever known and he always gave one hundred percent to his fans. Sleep well my darling super nova,

[@charliekline3975]

Powerful voice I don’t care if Elvis was heavy or thin the dude was cool 😎 . Long live the King the true king of Music there will never be other one like him

Elvis was sick and still gave a great performance. I saw him three months before he passed away. I could see he was so sick. That voice never failed him. He loved his fans and we love him. Elvis will never be forgotten.

Obviously in very poor health yet he still rocked it out. He still hit those notes. He still had the best moves. Bittersweet

No matter that Elvis wasn’t in the greatest of shape in the time in his life , his voice never failed him another WOW for this performance

[@lavonneburke979]

I’ve said for 30 years no one has his range. And have held to that until Adam Lambert came around. But what’s amazing about Elvis is that this is before cordless mics and the in-ear monitors of today. He was a gift from God that we had for far too short of time.

[@marlewin5249]

This concert was in late June 1977, he died less than 2 months after this! The voice of the man was strong and the range was phenomenal.

[@ireneduke5022]

August 16, 77 his body wore out and he left us. I was traveling thru TN on August 17, and stopped at many convenient stores seeking a newspaper about his death. There were none left.... Elvis spirit has never died for ppl like me who grew up listening to his music. I'm thankful I held on to his records.

[@marlewin5249]

@@ireneduke5022 I think there is a awakening happening today for depth and spirituality. Elvis had it!

He always be the king no matter what. I love " Hurt". Fantastic version. Only Elvis can do this.

[@marvan8482]

His vocals remained so powerful till the end of his life ! Great reaction !

[@javierserna1000]

Elvis combines, blues, country, pop, and both white and black Gospel music, and in the end he hit notes that would impress Pavarotti.. Even though he isn't well, you can feel his soul, passion and every drop of emotion.. We get to feel the pain, joy, loss, surrender, and victory all at once. Its no wonder Dylan stated that without Elvis he wouldn't have been able to find those lyrics and write them without shame.. Elvis opened doors and broke down walls like no one before him.. Men and women, young and old love him.. Unconditional love.. You see it in his eyes.. No ego, just love. Doesn't matter that he doesn't look like the Greek God in Black leather any longer, or the King in the early 70's.... I love him just the same! Thank you for sharing!

[@johngibsonmusic]

Great comment! Thank you very much!

[@sandramiller8701]

I believe when Elvis presley was singing this song. He was thinking about so many people that hurt him. Especially Priscilla he loved her until the day he died.

[@justdea5757]

I AGREE!

[@jozefhatert6231]

If a man so sick delivers this that shows how great he was

[@richardjames2906]

A sad time He always have his heart and soul

[@paulinetaylor2812]

The Legend has landed.

[@jmc8076]

3:34 ‘he gave it all for his fans’ Always did. Nothing left on stage. I think maybe he somehow knew his time was short and gave even more in those last concerts. Still gives me chills and tears. Some musicians called this ‘fat Elvis’ but he was/is an icon and had more talent, charisma then many who came after and said this. His looks were still there too. RIP🙏

[@paulinetaylor2812]

My boy never dropped a note and that,s why he a always gave his best

[@ronaldholmes8525]

I'm not sure what was failing with Elvis in the last days, but it certainly WASN'T his voice . There was still so much power in that incredible voice of his. WOW !

[@anitavillalobos9262]

Love this man... Just for the man himself and what he stood for.

[@giuseppinarispoli3326]

NO ONE CAN OVERCOME THE WONDERFUL ELVIS VOICE WHEN HE SINGS WITH SUCH PASSIONE. HIS BODY HAD CHANGED EVEN THOUGH FOR ME IT WAS ALWAYS BEAUTIFUL. BUT HIS SUBLIME VOICE REMAINED INTACT BEAUTIFULLY UNTIL THE LAST DAY OF HIS LIFE. I LOVE YOU MY KING FOREVER FROM ITALY

elvis sings with his heart his soul and I’ve never heard a version other personal she sticks to him

[@ShirleySchmidt1]

I cry every time I hear this song , I'm Leaving and I Did it My Way. Elvis was very talented and could always move you with his voice...but for some reason, I get the feeling in some of his last performances that he was crying out for help, and we didn't understand.

[@johnrider5701]

Even if Elvis wasn't in in the best of health Elvis's voice never failed him in fact I'd say his vocal range was never better than in that last couple of years ,

[@susyq810]

Thank you for this amazing video.What a beautiful and passionate song.It's hard not to be emotional watching him sing. His dear friend Charlie Hodge said Elvis was happiest when performing for his fans. I am very grateful for the time and talent he gave us when he was so ill .I imagine it must have been very hard to perform when he was so sick. Thank you Elvis for everything you gave us...so much talent...generosity. ..kindness. ..humor..passion for your craft..and the way you helped us forget our troubles and just enjoy your singing and YOU...When you were alive it just felt like everything was going to be ok...

[@lindanunn6882]

Hey John. Hurt has always been one of my favorite songs. No one sings it better than Mr Elvis. I am a huge Elvis fan. I saw him twice in concert and it was two of the most amazing nights of my life. You could be in a building of 10-12 thousand people and when he walked out on that stage it was like a tornado swept through the room. When he started to sing the other people disappeared and it was just you and him. I was a teenager in the 50s and 60s. OMG what a time to be young. We were living in the middle of musical history and had no clue. All we knew was that we loved it and it was fun. I was a Beatles fan as well, but Elvis will always be #1 in my heart.

[@johngibsonmusic]

Wow that‘s so awesome!! Thank you so much for sharing your story.

[@donnaralph4413]

Breaks my heart to see him so unhealthy,. Makes me mad that the people around didn't help more,. I know , they tried! So much talent and Love❤️❤️❤️

[@knowglobal-Redwoman]

genius.and humour presentation.unbelievable.seems like an angel made a visit on earth!

[@leectcb]

I always have a bitter sweet feeling when seeing our boy performing in the last years and in this case last few months of his life. He was obviously very sick and in completely different shape from only 4 years earlier and when you think only 9 years from his NBC special where he looked amazing. On the other side with songs like this and How Great Thou Art he could sing with a power that just makes you watch in awe and probably shed a few tears. God rest you Elvis.

[@johngibsonmusic]

Yes I feel the same way about his last years. It’s pretty sad... but his voice never failed!

[@maryannemelenka9250]

When some one on stage can make you cry they have done their job. This was real, even if some parts left out. Generations have seen his beginning, middle, and end. He accplished so much in entertainment, few can do that. We saw his comeback,s and then his going away. Like A star is born in n some ways.

[@banjopaul6551]

It’s clearly evident how incredible and strong his voice was and how he gave everything to entertain his adoring fans even though he was nearing the end of his all too short life. I don’t watch these performances very often as it reminds me of our great loss and this makes me feel sad. Thanks JG... always a kind word.

[@johngibsonmusic]

I totally agree. Thank you very much for watching!

[@fabiodesouza7228]

Precisely this version, so close to his death, is hyper-exciting; the vocal power, the instrumental beauty, its fragility, how wonderful; it is heartbreaking, such an emotion. He was a hardworking, incomparable singer, the king of music; no matter what stage he was in, when he was thin or even overweight, Elvis was beautiful in appearance and also in spirit. Beautiful reaction. God bless you. Hugs from Brazil!

Hi John....you are right. I also gave a comment to you when he sang "Unchained Melody"...it was his last live performance.

I don't know how people surrounding Elvis, not even his father, couldn't see how sick he was. If they had any compassion, they would have taken him to the hospital even if he protested. It's an outright shame no one did anything to help him. A bright, bright star that burnt-out much do soon. Long live his memory, his music and legacy.❤❤❤❤
