Elvis was gone before my time, there are singers that come into an era and never emulated or found again, however it was found in Greta Van Fleet, their singer has a voice like Robert Plant. Im in my mid 40's but when you see men and women 25 years my senior rocking to Greta, it's come full circle. ua-cam.com/video/aJg4OJxp-co/v-deo.htmlsi=YP20UPcUhO45oEjL
Andy Kaufman knew he did not have the handsomeness Elvis had, the extent of his talent, but he had talent, and a beautiful singing voice. He captured what Elvis sang, think he would be impressed, and I am too. I think Andy Kaufman did not get the recognition he deserved. ❤From A Nashville Girl❤
@raincloud7817 Keep quiet before you embarrass yourself further. Anyone who listens to elvis's ever changing chameleon voice, the soul, and the diversity, quickly understands that Andy only captures bits and pieces. Basically, Andy was a limited, "one trick monkey". He could never even attempt "if I can dream" because he has no soul. He has a good "mimic" but ultimately, he's limited.
I miss Andy Kaufman. It's hard to believe it's been so long 1984 40 years since he left this world. I'm sure Heaven is laughing at his comedy and music

Been an Elvis fan for a long time. Have heard all the immitators and they look exactly like him and do his voice exactly like him. But, but, but something was always missing. That thing was not Andy looking exactly like Elvis, not matching Elvis note for note. It was "Charisma" and that can't be faked before an audience. Listen to the aplause at the end. They knew he was special.
I just love this tribute from Andy to Elvis...He was great... Not trying to outdo Elvis because let,'s face it ...there was and never again be another Elvis...He was so special....had the privilege of seeing Elvis in person twice ... Loving Elvis always ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ And loving This tribute ....
Andy never goofed on Elvis, contrary to the REM song 'Man on the Moon'. Andy believed Elvis was the only entertainer worth paying to see, including himself.
I just watched the movie Elvis. After watching his last performance this video popped up. I was expecting Andy Kaufman to do a funny impersonation instead he was serious in his role as Elvis and what a spectacular performance it was. They were both one of a kind and are missed by many. Cheers to them both. - Adam in Tacoma
I'm 48 and French but honest, I'm not surprised that Andy Kaufman was Elvis's favourite impersonator because not only his "impersonation" wasn't much of an impersonation in the humorous meaning of the word but more of a genuine interpretation with a thin trait of humour and his voice and singing skills were actually much closer to Elvis's than any other Elvis's impersonator. He made them look like parrots but without forcing it like with the hair for instance. Andy doesn't overdo it, He takes the stage doing an idiot, places his wig on stage and off he goes with a great interpretation. To me, Elvis is not even the most important part in his impersonation. That's the greatness of Andy Kaufman. The king comes second.
I enjoyed watching this for the first time back in 1979 at my grandfathers home on his big fancy console floor model RCA color TV, a big deal back then especially when we only had about a 19 inch Black and white TV lol. And now 45 years later, it's still great to watch, and not only that it was a hoot watching Andy on Taxi. Thanks for the recording, it save me from doing it myself on Audacity. One more thing, if you didn't grow up in the 1970's, you sure missed a lot...my favorite decade!
Good God almighty, Andy was a gem...I don't even want to imagine his heartache, we've all had em, and I don't even want to think of my own, but damn he is something else. God bless him
what a wonderful voice God blessed Elvis with!!! He was my first ever true love crush🕺It is amazing to hear his voice again, coming from the amazing Andy Kaufman!
I watched this on the old black and white! I remember it *very* well and the fact this was a song on the first album I ever purchased at 6 years old: ELVIS' Golden Records. Top notch salute to The KING by Mr. Kaufman!!! 👑 ✨️ *T⚡️C⚡️B* ✨️ 👑
There won’t never be another voice like Conway’s. I saw him sing Hello Darling in concert in the early 70’s. I didn’t appreciate it as much then as I have in the years since. RIP Conway…I still love you. ❤️
I love this guy and he has captured my heart. He's a sweetie n he's a🎶 good impersonator as well!!! There's a familiarity that's really has a heart charisma that Elvis had! I like him!🎶💞🎶💞💞🎶💞✨️✨️🌹✨️🌹❤️🌹✨️🌹✨️🌹😪🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
C'est vraiment une formidable soirée avec les 11 sosies d' elvis Presley vous avez tous très bien chanté c'était un rêve pour moi je l' ai enregistré encore un grand merci pour les chansons d' elvis Presley ❤❤❤❤❤❤
The best impersonator of Elvis I’ve ever heard
Yes!
Of course!
Ral doner
Loved Andy...this is Mind Blowing ! His Singing...WOW !!
Andy did a great job of imitating Elvis, he did the best job I have ever heard also!!!!!!🎶⭐️🎶⭐️♥️🤍❤️✨️🕊✨️🕊✨️🕊✨️🕊✨️🕊
He does a beautiful Elvis impersonation!
He has a great voice! ❤ it!!!
So does Bob JOYCE
You can tell Andy was in love with Elvis, just like the rest of us

Elvis Presley himself gave him a 👍 that's a high enough authority to accept his impersonation. Good job Andy Coffman.
😌🙋 Kaufman😌
Kaufman did it comically in mannerisms but sang it straight. Of course this isn't close to sounding like.Elvis.
@@valeriefouchey4201wasaswwswwssssswwwsssswwwwssssss0ss
Excellent!! You are in heaven singing worship music to the father, son, and holy Ghost!!! Beautiful!!!
@raincloud7817 bro doesn't realize Jesus is buddha one in the same and as long as you have faith in life you will end up where you need to be
He had Elvis voice down perfectly. Hard to believe this is Andy talking and singing.
Well, if you'd never heard elvis sing that song, then you have now... excellent.
Good way of putting it, I'm a big Elvis fan and totally agree with you.!
One of the few geniuses who drew the line that he walked on

But he sure is talented
You don't know that.

I so agree! I dated Andy and we remained friends until his death. It’s in book coming out May 6, 2025 called “Princess Cheyenne” by Lucy Wightman
@@bradhuskersso Elvis was wrong? He seemed to recognise Kaufman’s talent.
Truly, he is just next to Elvis; yet, he is the best among all impersonayors of Elvis.
Love him a lot.
Elvis had more octaves, better vibrato and smoother sound along with a much stronger voice.
Absolute rubbish. He’s just an impersonator out of tens of thousands.
@@jenniferlloyd9574of Course he did. He was Elvis.
Andy sure got even better the more he did Elvis
Rest in peace Elvis and Andy
And rest in peace, Johnny Cash.
elvis aint dead
@@ronartest7748 😂🤣
😊😅😂😂RIP Elvis. ❤. Love you.
You were Great Andy. 😊😅😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I miss Andy Kaufman. It's hard to believe it's been so long 1984 40 years since he left this world. I'm sure Heaven is laughing at his comedy and music
I have watched this video so many times. He did it perfect. RIP Andy
Andy loved Elvis. Great impersonation!
It's hard not to love this one. I thought his comedy was great, but I really enjoy his impersonations of Elvis best.
I love each tribute spoken so nicely and truly. I genuinely enjoyed his impersonation. Very talented young man.
😅😅😅
Super ❤
You have to feel it to do it this well. Andy was feeling it, for sure.
I'm 75 and I still love playing, 50's and 60' music, always, always. It's still the best!

I miss so much people/actors like Andy. Why can't the gentle, sweet days be now so our children know what sweetness was. Love u Andy.
Amen I agree. This world is in chaos and if Kamala gets president well she is a demon and our money will be no more
Dang! I didn't know Andy was that talented. 😊
Wow!!!!
ELVIS was the 1st to do the super hero landing that Andy imitates so brilliantly at the end! Bravo Rip Andy and Elvis!
It takes nothing but music appreciation to love this version of Andy's just the way the King did it.
He just nails this song, this isn't the typical Elvis song you hear impersonators do. Which makes it that much better.
Great sound, had to play it twice. Andy and Elvis both great entertainers. Thanks for the ride boys. T.
I loved Andy's Elvis it was very good 👍
He really did love Elvis, Andy is putting his heart and soul into this act !!!
Showed Elvis respect and it was good to see that. One artist to another
I've never seen this before. Thank you so much !!!
I had forgotten just how great of an Elvis impersonator Andy was 👏🏻🥰‼️ It’s been a long time since I last saw him do this.
Been an Elvis fan for a long time. Have heard all the immitators and they look exactly like him and do his voice exactly like him.

He sounds exactly like Elvis love him
I just love this tribute from Andy to Elvis...He was great...
Not trying to outdo Elvis because let,'s face it ...there was and never again be another Elvis...He was so special....had the privilege of seeing Elvis in person twice ...
Loving Elvis always ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
And loving This tribute ....
For us still watching after 45 years proves this guy was great

Hey that's my big brother, and his stand by her man wife.
Beautiful! Congratulations!
Sister , Beverly Ruth
Just loved Andy so much. Watched him always.
❤😂🎉 Great impression! Rest in Paradise Andy.👌👍😃
Why we today’s don’t have a show like this.?.?
I can't believe this is Andy! He really did Elvis well and had his talking voice down pat! And he didn't make fun of Elvis 😢
Andy never goofed on Elvis, contrary to the REM song 'Man on the Moon'. Andy believed Elvis was the only entertainer worth paying to see, including himself.
Elvis is the king Andy is the Prince
