[@monicahines2238]

That made me cry 😢 Billy is a sweet guy 😍

[@dougdickason]

You can tell he's sincere and a straight shooter, and I have appreciated hearing his view of the Elvis world!

[@exdus235]

Yup

[@HOUNDDOGRACING]

I'd like to thank each and everyone of you, for kind and thoughtful comments... I had fun doing these videos with my friend, Billy... It was easy for me to talk to Billy, because he is a true friend... One that I can count on... Hopefully, we'll do more videos in the future... Until then... God bless you, all...

[@SpaGuy]

Love You My Friend!!

[@aynsleighmalayne3558]

Thank you both for getting together and making these videos! Much love, respect and prayers for both Billy’s and your families. I’m sorry for the deep losses in your life. Unfortunately I’m no stranger to tragic untimely death of close loved ones and it’s a tragedy and tougher to deal with under extreme circumstances. Not to mention, not being able to grieve in peace for various reasons. Even more so when everyone wants a piece of your loved one and tries to insinuate themselves into something they don’t understand. You’re a survivor and are a part of the history of an American icon, plus you have your own identity, family and legacy, so you’re double blessed:) Alive to tell and share your important place in life. Thank you and God bless!

[@lucyluluforever2570]

Enjoyed your memories. So glad you explained parts of history. Thank God you beat your demons and you are doing fine. You and Spa Guy had nice conversations and it seemed to flow so naturally. Sandy Miller I thought was his nurse ?

[@patriciarodas5084]

When Elvis passed away. I was 13 and I became very sad. Even do I hardly knew him as a singer. I am originally from El Salvador and it was big news for at least a year. I can not imagine how you as his brother felt. I am glad that you overcame your troubles. I followed you Elvis' histories on Facebook. Many blessings for you and your family.

[@HOUNDDOGRACING]

@@SpaGuy love you too, bro...

[@allanknowles1369]

People shouldn’t be judgement. Walk a mile in there shoes. So in saying that leave the Stanley brothers alone. All they did was grow up from small children around elvis. If it wasn’t for there stories which they have been kind enough to share with us elvis fans we would no what it was like being around him through the years. God bless you billy Stanley for sharing your stories I love them. And I wish you nothing but the best.

[@ramonaeichelberger4628]

I'm happy to hear Billy turned his life around. losing Elvis and dealing with a addiction had to be hard. Thank you for a good part 2.

[@Mark13091961]

‘Are you famous?’ ........ ‘well some people think I am’ - i just love that. Thank you so much Billy, i could sit and listen to these ad hoc anecdotes all day. This is just wonderful stuff. Thanks again. Ive never heard him interviewed before but find him down to earth and very likeable. Glad hes come through it all and looks well

[@chestergood4035]

“ are you famous or somethin? “. Great story, thanks Spa Guy!

[@waynewilburn3569]

wow I've never heard his story before that was awesome awesome Billy

[@jmf2471]

Thank you Billy & Billy for sharing this very personal story. God Bless.

[@SuperSharon1000]

Billy thank you for pointing out about Billy's grief at losing his brother ……….people are so quick to criticise I once told Billy Stanley your grief is public when his mom passed away I grieve in private when mine passed away give Billy a chance don't believe everything you read Billy is a good friend of mine and his wife Liz too

[@kshirley63]

I met Billy thru a mutual friend in 1982 in Texas. He was still grieving. I didn’t even realize the depth of it but I know he was hurting and shared stories with us. He was so nice we all knew. Other friends of mine from that time remember how nice he was too and we all remember Billy’s Southern accent and especially the mutual friend named who was an equipment manager and drove sn 18-wheeler then did AV set-up for Elvis and his band. We remember that Elvis’ passing was very devastating for this driver/equipment manager. I’m just so happy to see how well things have turned out for Billy. Thanks for heeding Jesus’ call on your life, Billy. God is very pleased and we all see and know Elvis loved you so much and has always been and still is very proud of you. Especially, Jesus must be so. Very. Proud. Most.

[@mariawilliams8279]

So thankful Billy was able to overcome his addictions. How precious for Billy to share his sweet memories of Elvis, as a brother, with all of us. My eyes are all teared up.

[@dawnsawyer4275]

Glad to hear he’s turned his life around Thank for a interesting story

[@jeanpeterson565]

So emotional to watch and how much He loved his brother , Elvis !! It was so sad for the fans but for family , I can not even imagine the hurt and sorrow !!

[@kmaham]

I really did not know much about these brothers. I have enjoyed watching.

[@FO5yr]

Right off the bat..."Thank You" for what you said right out the gate. They are real people...who deserve respect and kindness. God Bless All. I like Billy.....he is so sincere.

[@spirittraveller3846]

So heart felt and sad for him. His closeness and feelings about Elvis are not really surprising. Thank GOD he made changes in his life that saved him. Yes, I believe Elvis would be proud of him also.

[@donniestevens1559]

This was so great Elvis loved them and they loved elvis

[@ronderulijkummar7453]

Spa Guy you are a really amazing man,you're one of a kind and I wish I could meet you . A real southern gentleman!

[@cindie7086]

Awwwwww Billy Stanley, this is so awesome to hear you tell of your memories. Thanks Spa Guy Billy for connecting up with my football Billy. He's a wonderful guy I've felt fortunate to have as a friend for a while now.

[@theflossi56]

Gosh the tears listening to him speak. Elvis wouldn’t have wanted him to be so distraught. He would be proud of his recovery too. Btw I’m trying to figure out who would treat the Stanley kids bad. I missed that I guess. Spa Guy you are a decent man to insist on civility. God bless

[@SpaGuy]

Many People treated them bad and still do.. it has to stop..

[@marieacuna2207]

sad to hear about the meaness of people can be. Listening to his story I can imagine how you were feeling in the passenger seat it sure brought tears to my eyes.😢

[@krmgradiojoe]

That was a fast 15 minutes. I didn't want it to stop. I was right there in the car! Listening! Riveted to every word. Funny thing is, I too remember that afternoon in August 1977. Where I was, what I was doing, who told me, how.... my shock. And I was a fan of Elvis, but nothing like I would become. It was about two and a half weeks before my 16th birthday. Vivid memories. Thanks Billy for sharing!

[@UberLummox]

@@SpaGuy This is the 1st. I've heard of these three brothers. I can only guess at why they might get treated unfairly, but any reason seems very petty. Was it because their last name wasn't Presley and they're jealous...or...? Seems to me Elvis was the lucky one to have them in the fam.

[@michelletimmons2824]

My heart breaks for Billy . I’ve read a lot about him and his family. I have a whole new out look on the brothers of Elvis. You can feel his pain of losing Elvis.. I’m so proud of his recovery from drugs... thanks you for sharing your memories the good and the sad ones..

[@cindythecatwoman1601]

Thanks for interviewing Billy. He seems like a nice guy and, cared about Elvis. I'm sorry about what happened to him and his brothers. I can't wait to watch the rest of the interview.

[@shirleygreen4733]

As always Spa guy awesome video can't wait for part 3 so glad Billy got his life together I know Elvis is watching over him

[@barneymabey2530]

Wonderful story Billy, thanks Spa Guy.

[@kathyt3959]

It’s the Stanley brothers story to tell they lived it no one else’s.

[@jackfrost0607]

To be honest, the only things I've really heard about the Stanley boys are through other people in interviews so didn't know a whole lot about them. Billy seems like a real decent guy, the world may have lost a superstar but he lost his brother. Thanks Spa Guy for giving us the chance to get to know him.

[@NOVEMBER5TH2024]

Wow, "Spa guy" your just amazing, you have such great talent interviewing people. I absolutely love your work. thank you for everything you do. And Billy, my heart aches for you, the both of us were brought up with similar cases of not having a father, i could see your pain, it was real. Billy I can't imagine your loss, of your brother on that terrible day 8-16-77. I was 12. that date would change you forever. What happened to you had to be extremely traumatizing. and then in the 1980s you were able to overcome your addictions, another difficult hurdle It is so obvious, you're a good fine human being. Elvis would be very proud of you now, and he truly loved you. Thank you for having the courage to tell us your story, you are a strong-minded individual. You have our support. Don't ever think of yourself as being any less of a human being. Thank you Billy, Your a good man. May God bless you, and your family.

[@DenitaArnold]

Great as usual. Glad Billy went to rehab. His story is interesting. Will have to read his book

[@ronniecline1393]

Dang, my heart was breaking, the man can tell a great story. Bless him and his brothers☹️

[@Wayman_Simmang]

Give us part 3 Billy.. :) Love it!

[@bonniebarnett7202]

Hi Billy 😊, enjoyed video today, thanks for sharing this with us! And Thank you 😊 Billy Stanley for taking the time to share your story with us! Looking forward to next video Smiles 😁 Bonnie

[@jillhuddle7379]

It still stings , you can hear it , and see it , or am i blind and deaf , Spaguy, what a special video cant wait for next one

[@michaelk487]

Very interesting learned so much

[@n8trsho]

Great story about the autographs in the car. Just fantastic.

[@garynicholson8004]

really didn't know what to think of this guy...so much negativity aimed at the Stanleys over the years and as a fan you have to go by what is written. I think he seems a really nice genuine chap...one of my favourite interviews from the Spa Guy. It must be great being in the car with him and hearing this stuff first hand and then taking you to the exact spot without having all that detective work to do.....Thank's so much again

[@southernrebel159]

Thank you Billy for doing this interview. Thank you Spa Guy for continuing this series. If Mr. Stanley can do more interviews in the future it'd be great. Thank y'all so much, take care and YHVH bless.

[@exdus235]

Yes, more from Billy Stanley. 👍

[@leannbrooks218]

I love this series with Billy. I'm hanging on every word he says. God bless him

[@melissadreher9838]

What wonderful stories and memories. I teared up. Thank you to Billy for sharing his memories. Real people for sure! 💞💞💞

[@paulkay9563]

WOW that story really hits home.

[@jitterbug121]

Billy is just an awesome man! He is also a FB friend, I love his stories about everything! He is straight up and doesn't put on a show for people! If anyone were to bad mouth Billy and I heard about it I would come to his defense immediately He has become a dear friend , although we never speak, I feel his love for his brother Elvis! God Bless you too my friend

[@conniepresley7601]

Wow!! I can’t wait to hear the rest of the story .I can feel his pain in hie voice!!! God bless him !!

[@raytonemusic]

Love Billy’s stories could listen to him all day !!!

[@bethgillikin3691]

Listening to y'all talk about Elvis is outstanding. We all miss the greatest entertainer. You get 2 gold stars .

[@Trevitravels]

Interviewing people that knew or were connected to Elvis helps separate the man from the myth.

[@elbaortega1572]

Must be hard to go back in time and relive such a tragic moment. Yet, so fortunate that he and his brothers lived a life that the rest of us could only dream of. Elvis accepted them and gave them the love that they never had from their real father. I'm sure his life was turned upside down after Elvis died. It must not have been easy for him to adjust and accept that Elvis was gone. Yet, what a fascinating life to recall all the great and fascinating things they got to see and do with Elvis! Thank you Spa Guy for getting Billy to open up and talk to us about his memories with Elvis. This has been a wonderful video and I just wish you bring us more!

[@sameirorodrigues6632]

I have Billy Stanley's book and I really enjoyed it, I loved this interview and thank you both. God bless!

[@judekirsch9737]

Ok. This one tugs at the heartstrings.

[@vadare]

What a great interview. That part where Billy talks about asking Elvis if he was more famous than Mickey Mouse was so cute. My great granddaughter thinks Mickey is the bomb. So I got a kick out of that part. Then when he takled about the day Elvis passed, I had to shed a tear for him. I'm thankful he got his life back together. I admit, I have not heard much about Elvis' step brothers. I look forward to part 3. Thank you Spa Guy for all you do. God bless you.

[@rev.jennyosorio7003]

People can talk and speculate but we just dont know what happens in people's lives. No one has the right to judge another person. People are human beings and we all make mistakes. I always say before you judge someone's mistake. Ask yourself have you made any yourself and do you want to be judged? At the end of the day. We are all human beings. He seems like a very nice person who loved his brother dearly.

[@barbaraprivate7081]

Barbara private hello billy I just watched that clip what a touching story those boys are very lucky I was adopted into a beautiful home four a few years but later down the track they both had died so I was on my own again at the age of 10 yrs old, so I was sent to a home until I was at age, I grow up pretty quickly so, then I could be strong and learn to be on my own very hard I had a older brother and a sister and me the baby of all only come back in contact after 20 years so I understand where thoses beautiful boys are so happy what a great story yr family are the very most important thing love u guys and thanks for the clips billy be cool

[@DDCMNS]

watched all your Elvis videos and for some reason this interview was my favorite, I look forward to part 3....not sure why Stanley brothers were looked at negatively, seems ridiculous......Thanks again for another great video

[@joeymac3777]

Two men named Billy! I absolutely lobed parts one and two! I can't wait for part 3. Thanks again Billy for doing these videos for the fans.

[@gloriae.p.luvr4life394]

Omg, I'm crying as this video ends. I can hear the pain in his voice. Also, that part about having to learn to say that Elvis was his brother and not vice versa touched my heart. I'm glad to see that Billy recovered from the drug addiction. I know how extremely difficult it is to lose a brother suddenly and unexpectedly. Billy's love for his brother Elvis is obvious. Thanks for sharing Spa Guy. 👍👍

[@BobE316]

I agree with everything you said at the beginning of the video Billy ~ and God Bless you Billy Stanley, I'm so glad that you changed your life around...hearing you talk about Elvis and your life, it's obvious how much Elvis meant to you, my prayers are with you ~ These videos are so good Billy, thank you my friend

[@leewade4304]

Great stories, so real what a impact on his life. Elvis picking him up at school, he really cared for those boys, they weren’t a burden to him. Thanks for sharing these stories Spa Guy. WOW

[@robertreynolds4248]

Wonderful.....

[@nancychartrand7808]

that was great

[@_CoolHandLuke_]

Part two is as good if not better than part one! I cant wait for part three! Billy Stanley seems like such a good fella. God Bless Him! Awesome job Spa Guy! Thanks brother!

[@joestewart3117]

VERY INSPIRING SPA ROCKIN COOL!ROCK ON!

[@mattdrago4660]

Great words Spa Guy! You’re a good dude 💪🏻❣️

[@sharonrudy470]

Oh my heart.... I am so sorry Billy.

[@hubbell627]

What a good guy. You are right, people are not one dimensional but complex people who carry the same burdens we all do. Can't wait for Part-3.

[@michaelk487]

I just got to say you do such an amazing job these stories are unreal

[@gracieg7601]

I love the stories of the Stanley brothers. They’re so sweet and they adored Elvis.

[@johnkent6572]

Thank you for Part 2.I had not known anything about the Stanley brothers.Looking forward to Part 3.

[@lennonscat]

emotional...... At the start of the video you spoke again and the negative comments and what not. It amazes me that any fan of Elvis could have any negative thought when it comes to his family. People just don't understand that Elvis was Human and not the same man they had seen in his movies and concerts. It's a blurred line that people refuse to understand. Anyway, another great video. Your channel is booming. Now you are on the inside looking out instead of the outside looking in.

[@chriscanada175]

Your awesome Spa Guy. I agree about all the negative bs towards the Stanley’s. Keep up the great work and TCB. Ordered his book for my birthday this month.

[@KathleenManley-ez9nz]

I teared up when you and Billy said good-bye in his car/suv in front of Graceland, "the palatial estate." The Stanley brothers are unique, well spoken, and eloquent about their descriptions of growing up with Elvis...bless them and all their families.

[@bronsonosborne3962]

just amazing very heart felt

[@ethnamccallion1959]

Love hearing all these stories about elvis it's just timeless thanks for part 2 x 👍

[@maryvernooy1330]

This was terrific, thank you both for sharing your memories.

[@patriciarodas5084]

Spay guy!!!. I look forward to part 3, 4 5...... You have no idea how much I appreciate what you do to bring Elvis' histories to us. I pray and ask the Lord to send you many blessings, and great health.

[@marieminshull1400]

Spa guy doesn't believe

[@keithhuotari2571]

Another great addition for the files!! I absolutely LOVE seeing the most obscure Elvis-related sites possible, and Billy has a memory of just about everywhere in Memphis. Brings back memories seeing the old Graceland Elementary school location, the airport, streets we've come to know so well, etc. Thanks for bringing this to those who can't be there on a regular basis. This series also introduces people to Billy and kind of "humanizes" him. It's as you stated early in the video. For so long, the Stanleys seemed like characters in a movie because we rarely saw them in a relaxed, casual atmosphere like this. He comes across as a genuinely cool person. THANKS, SPA GUY!!

[@dianekiley4394]

Awesome interview love Billy's blunt honesty about everything glad he beat the addiction

😢 it's beautiful to hear memories but sad at the same time,,, love hearing Billys memories, Elvis wud be so proud your keeping his legacy alive ❤❤

[@wendybr549]

The first time I ever met Billy I realized that these are real ppl with real feelings not some fantasy world that we sometimes dream about. I ordered his book....thoroughly enjoyed it and he signed it for me. Check Amazon. Cant wait for #3.

[@GClooney17]

Hi spa guy people who say negative things don’t know other people lives Billy is a good man he consider Elvis a father figure to him. Elvis effected so many people When he passed. Keep up the great Work looking forward to part three Thanks again Joseph from NJ....

[@fcontitwo]

God Bless Billy Stanley for being so open to history so few are aware of . Thanks !!! , I just sent for the book from Amazon. ( #GreatReviews) 😎✨🌿🇺🇸👌🏼

[@srgrahl]

Wow this is history! Great job my friend!

[@robingray3221]

Great job Spy guy enjoyed that. I watched it three times.

[@mattward2552]

Elvis was just a cool guy. Very interesting, to hear about Sandi.

[@patriciarodas5084]

I just read that part of Sandi moved in to the neighborhood in Becky Yancey' book. I am enjoying her book. Becky seems very objective of what she lived and saw, working at Graceland.

[@donnahill8403]

Thanks Spa Guy for filming Mr. Billy Stanley telling you his life stories while growing up with Elvis. I believe that he loved Elvis very much and suffered a terrible shock when hearing of Elvis's death. I enjoyed seeing the places they spent time together and just had some fun times together. I'm sure it was a terrible loss for the whole family. One thing I didn't understand is why Vernon moved in to live with Sandy Miller to start with. Or maybe I miss understood. I thought that Elvis was close with her, at one time. I can understand tho, that Dee, would have a difficult time with that. I hope what I've said is ok, I really appreciate all the hard work you do to provide these wonderful stories about Elvis and his family . I surely remember the day of his passing. I heard it on the radio and I was not sure at first if I heard it correctly, but then it was repeated and I just stood in shock . It was devastating for me , I could only imagine the pain his brothers felt and Lisa Marie. Just a sad time for all of the family and true fans. Well, I am looking forward to part 3 of the story.

[@SpaGuy]

Elvis' Gate Girl Friend was Sandi Miller not Sandy Miller.. Sandy Miller was a nurse to Vernon as well..

[@donnahill8403]

Ok thanks for explaining. I didn't realize there were two Sandi Miller's. It makes perfect sense now to me by her being Vernon nurse. I was just asking , not trying to be disrespectful. I love learning new things about Elvis and his friends and family. Again I thank you for being a good friend and for answering my question. Have a blessed day. ☺ I hope you will continue to send me your newest video's as they come. I agree with you for wanting /expecting your channel to be a happy one. I have learned so many things about Elvis and that is important to me. God bless you and Lorrie always.😇

[@alicemilling3706]

There are no words that I can think of to describe the devastation they all must have experienced that day For me I was 12 and know how Elvis's death affected my life and the rest of the world but to be family Your right the people who judge and hate they dont know what goes on so like the song says Walk smile in my shoes and that's straight from Elvis Thanks Billy for all the great interviews and Billy Stanley thank you for telling your story much appreciated

[@marieacuna2207]

Thanks for sharing I'd love to check out his book and thanking God for his recovery.😊 greetings from California

[@bryandoyle3092]

Billy.. just like he sang.. WALK A MILE IN MY SHOES!!!!

[@pocher69]

I love this story!!!! The stories to me are better than the music!!! God Bless You my friend!!!!

[@bobbiemoore1745]

You can tell they loved each other. Elvis loved having little brothers. ♥ I'm really glad they got to stay an have fun with Elvis

[@paolovincent6800]

Really enjoying these episodes Spa Guy, i was 14 when Elvis passed. I had seen pictures of The Stanley Bros. man i thought they were the coolest. On Tour with those Red Satin Jackets ,COOL !!! If you ever have the chance id love to hear of all the Rock Stars he met back then. God Bless !!!!

[@randywatts7085]

I never heard much about these kids until now great job I look forward to part 10000 lol This could be a full documentary on tv its that good
