Elvis is on his own. He's the GOAT in music. Such a powerful baritone voice. He recorded over 700 songs. More Elvis please. 👍⚡
Remember this was live and during his lifetime there was no autotune. Elvis's beautiful voice and showmanship is unmatched to this day. He was not called the king for nothing. thank you very much.
No one else can touch Elvis' vocals. His impersonators try but they can't capture Elvis' soul.
I'm happy that new generations are discovering Elvis. He was and is the King, even though he didn't like that title.. He is the G.O.A.T. but doesn't get the recognition he rightfully deserves.
He was more than a great performer, he was a great humanitarian as well.
The Jordanaires were his back-to-back up singers in the 50's and early 60's until he went in the Army. They were also back-to-back up singers for many Country artists. When he returned to the stage after his military service he hired these gentlemen as his back-to-back up ( I don't know if they were a group or just individuals he hired). He also hired the Sweet Inspirations ( female group of 3....They also sang back-up for Aretha Franklin),
Elvis had no formal vocal training and could not read music. He did not write songs; but rather covered songs that he liked and that meant something to him. He gave them new life by doing them in his style..
Keep delving into his catalog. Tryin' To Get To You ( video from '68 Comeback Special)
Bridge Over Troubled Waters ( video '70 Vegas concert)
What Now My Love ( video '73 Aloha Concert the rehersal)
You Have Me a Mountain ( video '73 Aloha)
Bound Dog ( video '56 from the Ed Sullivan Show)
Jail house Rock ( video)
The 1973 Aloha Concert was the first live concert seen on tv via satellite seen in 46 countries by over 1.5 billion ppl. around the world. It was the mega event of the time.
I enjoy your channel. 👍
He was a beautiful man with the best ever voice.
He NEVER cheated his audience. He so appreciated those who spent time, money and effort to see him. For all his shortcomings, he was a humble guy who liked simple things ----- Music, especially Gospel, and regular people. One of a kind.
… Elvis was the first and the best! ... A millennium singer for eternity ... I've never heard a better male voice than Elvis's...amazingly good !! … His performance in Hawaii in 1973 via satellite was the biggest event in music history of the last century! ✨💎✨🕺🏻🕯 Thank you
Elvis is the best ever.
I love how he turns his back to the audience for the performances of the back up singers and the orchestra, becoming the audience and giving great respect to fellow performers. A generous man all around. Can't help but love him, for many reasons. Truly hope you continue doing reactions to his music. I will be watching. God Bless.
The Jordanaires were no longer w Elvis at this point. The backing vocals here are JD Sumner & the Stamps Quartet. This is the most watched show in history, being beamed Live around the planet on Jan. 14, 1973 to a total viewing audience of 1.5 BILLION people watching...at a time when the earth's population was only 3 billion!!! Nothing before or since has broadcast to a nearly 50% of the PLANET watching live!!!
I`m so glad to see non-Elvis fans giving Elvis a chance and the respect he deserves as a musician, artist, and performer. Thank you👍Loved it❤
This is the best ever. Thank God for ELVIS 🙏👑👑
Gr from Amsterdam
Only 1.5 billion people watching him do that. The man had nerves of steel.
First Concert Live Via Satellite 🛰 Worldwide and Yes Watched by 1.5 Billion People !!
@@WoodsWoman822 Somebody said more people watched this than watched the moon landing!
Simply the G.O.A.T!
The best there was, the best there is and the GREATEST THIS WORLD WILL EVER SEE!! Elvis was magical, his voice is heavenly, when he sings he puts his heart and soul in to every world every action. The power, passion, emotion, feel, control and charisma it doesn't get any better than Elvis. You can feel him sing not just hear. No auto tune no pitch correction just pure perfection. Elvis gave his all for what meant the most to him and that's his fans he loved his fans. Elvis was a God among men as he was a gift to us all from God himself. Long live the King!!!!
***In this song it’s JD sumner and the stamps quartet that are backing ELVIS up along with the sweet inspirations***
Great reaction!
It’s an American classic just like ELVIS!
No one did it better!!!!
America's greatest gift to the world. Vicki
Elvis' early work was accompanied by the Jordanaires, but Elvis, as he said later in an interview, "could not get them out of Nashville, " so he hired another group called "The Stamps." J. D. Sumner was the man with the very deep voice. The more live Elvis you watch, the more you realize, as the actor from Elvis, Austin Butler ,said, "Elvis was an early producer." He had producer's who were credited, but as they, and the orchestra leader all said, "no one needed to tell Elvis what to do. He told them." Even though he had no formal music training, he has been described as a musical savant. He was always on pitch, and when he does the hand movements, he is, in effect, directing the orchestra and the back up singers. He knew what he wanted, and they knew to watch him because sometimes he changed things without notice, Welcome to Elvis world!
I've heard this song by him hundreds of times and I always feel chills! I also was born in Dixieland (south USA). He never forgot his roots. He was always respectful and generous. When fan mail came in, he personally read the ones of people asking for financial help. He paid homes off, medical bills and bought cars for strangers. He gave away over 200 Cadillacs in his lifetime. He was one of a kind and I am happy to see him finally getting the appreciation and respect he deserves. Thank you for taking your time and sharing with us. 🇺🇸
Love your rections to our one only the king the legenddary forever in our hearts still miss him all this years😭😭😭😭😭😭
There will never be another Elvis. You will always get a thumbs up from me for any song he sang. I was at this 1973 Aloha concert n sat 3rd row center n couldn't take my eyes off of him. I was 21 n crazy about Elvis n I even jumped up on my seat n thru him a kiss n he winked at me. Lol. I never met Elvis but was friends with Charlie Hodge his confidant and best friend for years after Elvis died n kept a journal of the stories he told me. That jumpsuit was called American Eagle n all those gems sown on were Real. The suit weighed around 70 pounds( yes that is true) When he wore his cape it added another 20 pounds. I forgot to check if you had an Elvis playlist so I will give a few songs I liked Suspicious Minds Vagus 1970, Patch It Up Vagus 1970, Steamroller Blues Aloha concert 1973,Make The World Go Away Vagus 1970 n many more. Thank you for keeping Elvis music alive.Elvis was the most generous man on earth giving away most of his money to family, people in need many charities He gave people whatever they needed Houses, Motorcycles, Cadillacs, Trips, Jewelry, paid medical bills when people didn't have insurance, stopped at a homeless man n gave him $5,000 in cash to help him start a new life, I could write you a book on all the things he did for people. I story I loved They were driving Elvis to one of his concerts n someone mentioned that a little boy couldn't go to the concert n was very sick in the hospital so Elvis made them stop at the hospital ( he was dressed in his jumpsuit) n went to the boys room n spent time with him n if my memory is right he gave the boy his necklace with a cross made of beautiful jewels. I better stop now because you are probably getting bored talking about Elvis. I really love your reaction channel n I'm giving you 9.8 out of 10
Have you ever seen a performer that sins his songs with sooo much passion, conviction, and emotion? Not too likely!! There is a reason he was called the King of Rock! He was so generous not just in his own inner circle, but also people in need that he didn't know! GREAT GREAT MAN!!
For Americans this will have greater meaning due to the deeply patriotic origin.
In the 70's the background singers were JD Sumner and the Stamps and the Sweet Inspirations 😊
This was 1973 .. via satellite from Hawaii that was beamed to the whole world.. 1 billion people watched it.. even bigger than the first man to walk on the moon… King Elvis at his best
Youre absolutely right! Elvis's vocals are unmistakable! The minute you hear a note you know its him!!! Incredible performance as always!
Thank you for more Elvis. Definitely the GOAT! NOBODY sings like that. Sweating because that jumpsuit weighed 75 lbs. The concert seen by 1.5 billion people around the world live.
No it was not seen by 1.5 billion people around the world, its complete myth. Most people never saw it live, just politics, geography and time. The myth was pushed by parker.
That's your feeble opinion. It was seen live by 1.5 billion people world wide. I was alive at that time in another country. If you also watch the initial interview before the concert, you will hear the producer speak and give the facts. More people watched this concert than the landing on the moon in 1969! Facts! Parker had nothing to do with these viewing figures.
This is the story of the American Civil War...The first song that you hear is DIXIE which is the Battle Hymn for the Confederacy! The second song is The Battle Hymn for The Northern Section of the U.S..and The last song is the Soldier on either side of the way dying! A little note, the Northerners liked the song DIXIE so much, they would actually sing Dixie and the Officers would have to stop them! Thank you for reacting to ELVIS! Any day that I hear him is a good day! I Love ELVIS sooo much! ❤ ❤ ❤
As a southerner, I love hearing Elvis (a fellow southerner) singing that first part about being born in Dixieland from the old traditional Civil War era song! You just have to be a southerner of many generations to understand the pride of listening to him
yes
That ending note is like if a lion could sing lol
All i can do is smile and cry at the same time when watching how great he was
I still tingle at it but I just realised something....it's those really masculine movements that are making me tingle even more than the incredible song! It's when he pulls his arm back, swings it round, jabs into the air to direct ..tinnnnngle!! It's masculine power and it's absolutely wonderful!
If you watch closely you'll notice how he listens closely for musical cues for when to sing. In an age before the advent of on-stage monitors, ear-plugs, and auto-tune, many songs were carefully arranged for the performer to 'hear/recognize' moments when to pause and when to sing.
It's not The Jordanaires, they worked for him in the fifties and sixties. Its J. D. Sumner ( the guy with the deep voice) and The Stamps
And the ladies were Sweet Inspiration, right?
@@aletmartins6940 The Sweet Inspirations.
I loved this song. J.D. Sumner had the sweetest bass voice. Loved the Stamps.
A few things to remember. This was 1973. There were no monitors, no autocue, no lip syncing, nothing but musical cues from the backup singers & orchestra
that made the event run like a finely tuned machine working together & relying on nothing else but genuine talent. There is NO ONE who comes close & there never will be.
This group was actually J. D. Sumner and The Stamps Quartet. The Jordanairs stopped backing him in the mid 60's.
One of my favorite songs…still brings full body chills, fifty years after I heard him do it in concert!!!
The fellow with the deep voice was J.D. Sumner. He sang back up for Elvis with his band the Jordanairres. He held the world record for the lowest note sung by a human, a double low C. The record stood for about 35 years
BP1, you are correct. A lot of singers sound like someone else. But nobody sounds like Elvis!
Elvis was really one of a kind, a total package, looks, style, voice, diversety and personality. Elvis was actually voted "artist of the century, back in 1999 and rightfully so .
The song he ended with was "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" Winston Churchill heard this song when he visited America back in the late 40's or 50's, it is a very patriotic song written during the Civil War. Churchill requested this song to be played at his funeral, and his request was granted.
Thank you for reaction.
Wow great trivia! Thank you!
That would be early 40's . WW2.
@@Cam-hs6xq Thanks for the info, Churchill is one of my favorite historical figures.
This show, Aloha from Hawaii was in 1973. I was just 16 and I was just one of the "one billion" viewers glued to the TV watching via satellite (Elvis first the entertainer to broadcast that way). I became an instant fan. The outfit he's wearing is called the Red, White, & Blue American Eagle (American Eagle design across his chest) I'm 66 now, a forever fan and revisted Elvis's home called Graceland in Dec 2022. The Graceland tour of his home in Memphis has new exhibits since my last visit years ago. The tour includes his home plus the Elvis Museum that exhibits his vast automobile collection and the costumes, records & memorabilia related to his performances. So in 2022 while viewing his costumes I got to take my picture standing by the very costume he's wearing in this 1973 video which was the very first time I saw him perform. A momento I will always treasure.
I’m pretty sure the male backup singers are the Stamps.
☮️💜🎶. Almost all of Elvis’ moves anything from a glance or the move of his hand or arms, are directing his band or backup singers
Two words ! The king 👑😊 rip
His voice powers over the band
👑Elvis il migliore di tutti il più grande. Elvis e Marilyn💋 coppia perfetta leggende delle leggende
I was 5 when Elvis died, but I grew up listening to Elvis. He was an icon and always will be. Thank you for covering Elvis. You guys are great!
Exactly the same. I was 5
I actually remember all the news coverage of him. I don’t remember, but I am sure I was sad. I continued to listen to his music and still do.
@@nikkidearmas3733 I listened to Elvis with my Grandma all the time and I actually was with her the day that he died. We cried and cried. I’m sure part of the reason I cried was because she did. I didn’t really understand even though my step dad died 2 months before on June 16. I still listen to him daily now
The male backup group at this time were J.D. Sumner and The Stamps Quartet, they were with Elvis from 1972 until 1977. Elvis said in 1970 that he could not get the Jordanaires out of Nashville, they were well off doing session work. He had not shared a stage with them in over ten years by 1973 when this performance was recorded. TCB⚡️
A definite 10 for this powerful live performance
Yes, at least a 10!
So powerful ,that wasn't a song ,that was an experience !😍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I don’t remember not loving Elvis ❤
Love, Love , Love Elvis
I am a huge Elvis fan and his music will always be here. Thank you for sharing ❤️🤗🇺🇸
The Jordanaires bat Elvis many times in his earlier years but this here is JD Souther (deep bass) and the Stamps Quartet. He also often used a group called The Imperials for the male backing vocalist. The female group with him in the later years was the Sweet Inspirations.
Elvis was and will always be the best, beautiful generous soul
Just got back from Hawaii, he did a concert there, to raise funds for the arizona memorial. He stayed mostly. At the Hilton which is now "hawaiian village resort, still owned by Hilton,
All my trials Lord, soon be over. Then, not just tears, but deep sobbing. How does he bring all that emotion out of you with just his voice? 😭😭😭
Just amazing ..his tranformation in voice..nobody else has such a transformation.....from rockabilly to opera
Elvis always wanted to be a singer in a famous gospel quartet. He tried out but they said he wasn’t good enough so ended up doing rock and roll but he always loved gospel music so he always had southern gospel quartets as his back up singers. Usually the Jordanaires Quartet or JD Sumner and the Stamps Quartet and sometimes both. Also had the Sweet Inspirations which were a gospel girl group. The quartets always had the best harmonies. I believe JD Sumner and the Stamps Quartet are singing here and JD is the one with the really low bass voice. ❤
J.D. Sumner of the Stamps Quartet were Elvis' backing sings on this concert not the jordanaires guys
Gotta be one of Elvis' greatst performances!
fantastique quel voix ...set pas par hasard qu'on l'appelle le roi 😇💖💥💥💫💫👏🙏🙏🙏
BP1 I love your face expression while listening to Elvis!!!
BP2 is correct on how to pronounce Aloha. It means both Hello and Goodbye in Hawaiian.
This is one of his most famous performances.
Elvis was before the days of music videos of course. I cant imagine him in a traditional music video instead of just performing live.
Elvis was very passionate about doing gospel music.
The Colonel didn't want him to do that music because he didn't think it would be good for sales.
This was 1973 in 4 years he would leave the world.
The only major award given to Elvis were Grammys for gospel music and inspirational performances.
He won "retro" Grammy for Hound Dog/ Dont be cruel
This was the first satellite concert beamed all over the world it was watched by over a billion people the king.
The guys the the background are J D Sumner , and the Stamps Quartet.
Hello you two ! I remember a couple reactions earlier. U both r get with All ur reactions. However, in understanding why the world was rocked by Elvis. Find Elvis s first tv appearances , then Elvis on the Milton Berle show 1956...the long version. You'll enjoy this to max. Have fun by the way in 1956 he was 21 years....born 1935. By the way, Elvis arranged his own recordings, ofcourse never had anybody tell him how to move 😂😂😂😂 and arranged his concert music himself as well. Check movie THAT'S THE WAY IT IS !
Amazing reaction. More please 💕💕💕💕
♥♥♥ This song still gives me goosebumps every time
The Jordanairs just were his background singers till the 60's. They were brilliant too.
Thank you for this amazing performanceand!💚🌞
Yes, by the 70’s they were out of the picture. So here in January of 1973 he had J.D. Sumner (the low voice you heard) & the Stamps Quartet, the Sweet Inspirations and Kathy Westmoreland singing back up vocals.
@@KeepMovingOn Thank you Linda and others here for clearing up the mistaken belief, as stated by BRIT POPS REACT, that THE JORDANAIRES are the backing vocals on stage here in Hawaii 1973.
Thanks Elvis is one of a kind
This concert was the first to be televised worldwide and raised money for the Kui Lee Cancer Fund. Two shows were done, the rehearsal and the main. The rehearsal was actually filmed in case something went wrong during the main event. Awesome concert and great reaction. Cheers!
It was the first worldwide satellite by a solo artist. In 1967 "Our World" television special was the first live international concert presented via satellite.
He was the best!!!!
I "hear" it when most people sing, but I "feel" it when Elvis sings.
This concert was broadcast worldwide to 1.5 billion people. At the time that means 1/4 of the people on the planet watched it.
He was executive director of his own music, he even arranged and experimented with none Elvis songs to put the Elvis on them. He had perfect pitch and an almost 3 octave range. Elvis loved the 50's opera singer, Mario Lanza and had all his recordings, Lanza knew Elvis was a fan and when approached by the media one day and they told him about Elvis, Mario replied, "I would rather have had Elvis' voice instead of Mine". thanks for this great reaction. Be Blessed.
Mario Lanza has also been quoted as saying, 'Elvis can sing like me, but I can't sing like him.' That's certainly true 😊
No one sings "The First time ever I saw your face" like Roberta Flack.
Elvis also had 3 female backup singers he called his "Sweet Inspirations", One of them named Cissy Houston was the mother of pop diva, Whitney Houston. Cissy later had a steller career as a gospel singer.
I truly believed his soul was an angelic one and he was forever grieving for his divine mother and now Keough and lisa
Love this song. It’s so dramatic. When the timpani comes in after the flute solo, and builds to the trumpets… just chills. Wow!
>>The male group backing Elvis in this video is J.D Sumner (Guinness World Record lowest bass 18yrs) and The Stamps Quartet. They were with Elvis from 71-77. J.D. Sumner sang at Elvis's funeral.
Wikipedia is wrong!!
This was actually the first concert shown round the world by satellite,watched by about a billion and a half people.
@@katiemartin2279 It was the first worldwide satellite by a "solo" artist. In 1967 "Our World" television special was the first live international concert presented via satellite. The 1.5 billion is an inflated number by Parker. The actual population of the countries that received it live was 831 million. US did not see it live...If the live and re broadcast numbers were added, it still doesn't hit 1.5 billion.
can't believe you have never seen this before
Great performance by Elvis and worth remembering that Dixie was a marching anthem of the Confederate Army and the Battle Hymn of the republic that, obviously, of the Republican Army with the two songs held in balance by All my Trials reminding us of the many, many American Daddies that died in that Civil war.
1 billion people tuned in , at the same time to see this. First satellite broadcast
There is Elvis..and than the others
Just The king
The best ever!!
Although the Jordanaires did back-up Elvis in the early part of his career his back-ups in this video is J.D. Sumner & the Stamps. Elvis loved Gospel Music especially Southern Gospel Quartets.
Bill Medley with the Righteous Brothers was a very good friend of Elvis. They did Los Vegas together. One went on at 8:00 the other 10:00 12:00 and 2:00
Great to see you reacting to Elvis again. I’d love to see you do some of his live performances on tv shows from the 50s of Hound Dog, Don’t Be Cruel or Love Me Tender ❤
Ah- loh - hah. Like BP2 said. 😉
Thank you. Thank you very much. Ollie has left the building.
(Classic Elvis, this one. I've seen it a few times).
@EnderOllie 4
He keeps me on my toes does BP1 with his interesting pronunciations,
To be fair, it gets the comments going!!
This is first ever satélite livestream i n this world…it was streamed Live to 40 countries and watched by 1.5 BILLION Fans…to this day no livestream has broken this record!

@@coollady2179 obviously
Magnifique!
That's why he was the King.
From the time he cut his first record until the day he passed ..... Just try if you can and look what all he did over a 20 year span is unbelievable
Really enjoy your reactions. Elvis was one of a kind.
The backing male vocals are called the imperials
