    What other singer can carry

    Elvis has so many textures in his vocal ability, that to this day no one is close.

    3:32 The look on his face, the turn to the audience, and that punch up to the air as if summoning the power of a heavenly choir. For the next 40 seconds he will own a level of command over an audience rarely achieved by a performer on stage. Truly powerful and magnificent to watch, especially when considering just how many people were watching at the time.

I was six and seeing that movie just brought back so much of my childhood and make me miss my dad as he lives out of state. I'm so sorry about your mom. I pray she is smiling blessings down upon you and maybe she's met Elvis in that big concert arena in the heavens. ❤

One overlooked side of Elvis is how painstaking he was. He knew the sound he wanted, and would work to get it. So, yeah, he wasn't just a happy go lucky whatever guy, but that's not a defect.

    My mother and father flew to this concert with their best friends when I was only 9. When he sang this song, my mom's friend Ginny actually got so moved and emotional, she passed out! My dad and his friend had to grab her and hold her up. People were crying and fainting from the high emotion. My mother is now 80 and she still talks about this concert to this day. When Ginny died 4 years ago, they played this song as you walked into the church and they had a photo of Elvis along with other photos telling her life story, on a table with candles. I'm getting goose bumps just thinking about it. God was only able to make one Elvis and will never be able to replicate that talent and presence again.

      Laurel I can vouch for the tears & high emotion as I was privledged to be there also that nite as an 18 yr. Old. I too did see some Women hysterical & passing out ( maybe one was Ginny 🤔 ) When Elvis sang Triology even Big Burly Hawaiian guys were reduced to tears such was the KING's moving, emotional & powerful delivery. It was a surreal experience. Apart from getting married & having children, that nite was the highlight of my life.
      I remember it like yesterday ( especially American Trilogy ... the MOTHER of all live performances )
      The ULTIMATE concert sung by the ULTIMATE performer.
      Appreciate your beautiful story as I can relate to it. All the best to your Mum also. Would be great to have a chat to her about that incredible groundbreaking nite.

    He served in Army...
    He's endured different types of deep, emotional scars, that could not heal. ....
    But this, ties a strong message, that I think, many of us all, can ponder upon.
    Consider each day a gift, to do a good deeds, because it could be our last day on earth.

I climbed over a few chairs and tables to get to the stage where he was, I didn't get a kiss but I grabbed on to his arm, some girl grab on to his other arm and we wouldn't let go. He had to tug kind of hard to get free but he laughed and made it fun. I'll never forget that night and being so close to Elvis, the King of Rock N Roll. A memory I treasure!

    This song should be the NATIONAL ANTHEM OF UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

    • @helenaville5939
      @helenaville5939 9 місяців тому +20

      Part of it might have become the anthem. First it should be said that this is not just one song, it is a medley of 3 different centuries-old and very historical American songs. This is why it is called American Trilogy (a trilogy being a collection of 3 songs or books). One of the 3 songs, Dixie, is the unofficial anthem of the Confederacy. If they had won the Civil War they might have wanted this to become not just their anthem but America's anthem.
      One of the other two songs is The Battle Hymn of the Republic. This song was the anthem of the other side during the Civil War. And the third song is an old African American Spiritual called All My Trials which dates back to the times of slavery. So Elvis brings together in this performance the two opposing sides of the Civil War, as well as the Black population of America. Everyone is represented. What a wonderful man he was, embracing all sides in general and none in particular. Love and Blessings to the cherished American people from across the waves in Ireland. 👍☘💚

Something I'll never forget.

      My whole life, it was my dad's wish that this play at the finish of his funeral. It was and it was amazingly powerful.

    What is amazing about this minute in time-Elvis is singing this song to God with 1.5 billion people watching. What a powerful message to a creator. You can tell that there was tears.

    I don't understand how is it even a debate that he is by far the greatest ever? when, after 18 years of career, you can pull this majestic performance off, with 1.5B people watching/listening to you live... and it has been 50 years and nobody even came close to that number (except live-aid which featured different artists where Aloha from Hawaii features only Elvis). I would say that this and probably some of the other mind-boggling records Elvis still holds to this day, does indeed solidify him as greatest to ever do it.

    I'm Australian and we have at least 100 songs that make us proud to be Aussie's. How ever when I listen to this song as I am an Elvis fan of over 40 years it gives me goosebumps and almost makes me wish I was American. Side note I can't wait to visit one day and see your beautiful country and all the landmarks starting with Graceland 🌎🗽✈🟥⬜🟦
