Celebrities Elvis Couldn't Stand

- Elvis may have been The King, but that doesn't mean he didn't have some petty rivalries, many of them stemming from his deep personal sense of competition with other famous entertainers. Some of these grudges developed while Elvis was still a young performer, being challenged by the likes of Frank Sinatra and the rest of the old guard. Other enmity developed for people like John Lennon while Elvis was in a slow decline, no longer the innovative force of nature he'd been in his youth. Whatever the case, Elvis' resentment for these men was deeply felt, though he managed to get over it in at least one case - at least on the surface. Here are the celebrities Elvis couldn't stand.

What's your favorite Elvis song?
In the Ghetto
Too Much
Always On My Mind
Hard to say but " If I can dream" is his masterpiece
imagine and give fish a chance
Elvis actually didn’t support the War, he felt the war was a mistake. However he supported his country.
@@Silentium.1 110% Correct!
Absolutely Hugh. I agree with you. Everyone like to have an opinion about what Elvis did or didn't do, It just goes to show how Interesting "Elvis" still is. 🤔 Really !! Elvis will Always Be The King & The knockers will TRY and Drag Garbage up about Him to What End?? Is it so important to Try and Sully His Name and Character???? They are Wasting Their Time and Effort. When it's all said and done It Won't Change The Opinion of The MULTITUDE OF FANS THAT "Elvis" STILL HAS.
To me this shows how JEALOUS the muck Rakers Were and Still Are. Especially The So Called "Memphis Marfier" They didn't have Elvis Presley to Prop Them Up or Pay Their Way Anymore!!! So They Turned To Trying To Defame Him. Well it didn't work. The Proof is ALL AROUND.
TODAY STARTS "The Elvis Festival"
Which is held EVERY YEAR in a Rural Town in NSW AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺
Normally it is held in January Marking The Day "Elvis" came into the World. However owing to Covid-19 The Festival Date Had To Change. The Elvis Festival is so Popular Townships are Booked Out Fore Miles Around.
The Elvis Train Brings His Fans to Parkes each Year and The Train is Packed to Bulging with People Who Love Elvis and His Amazing Voice. The Man has left a Legacy for us to Enjoy, Music 🎶 🎵 That can lift Everyone's Spirit and Can "Make The World Go Away" We love his Movies and Will go On Being Entertained By The King for as long as we are on this Earth!! The Love Of Elvis has been handed down to our younger ones and they are Just as Passionate as We Are. ❤ 😍 💖 ❣ 💕 💘 ❤
He didn’t really do anything. He basically hung around and did little concerts. People want to make it seem like he was a navy seal or something.
Elvis told you that?
Well bloody said. Amazing how things get twisted.
I met Elvis in Toronto at the Maple Leaf Gardens. He was very cool. I was just a kid at the time and worked at the gardens . We talked for quite awhile between his shows . I was impressed he was down to earth as ever. Thanks 👍🇨🇦
I thought Elvis only played in Vancouver and Ottawa
Believe I know, when he was lonely he would either fly out to see us, or send his plane so we could see him on the road or at Graceland….
poor you. Did it take long to get over it
@@lazyishardwork woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning?
Woahh you are so lucky wow I wish I lived in those years
Elvis was Never jealous of other performers quite the opposite he said often there was room for everyone
Yes i heard him say that in an interview along with he wouldn't put another performer down
he even sang with frank sinatra
Frank Sinatra gave his plane to Elvis Presley flight during Elvis wedding in 1967....?
Would be crazy to be jealous being he pretty much stole his whole catalog and style from African music artist
@@phatjohnson4991 he opened the door for countless African American Artists so they were actually noticed ne stole nothing BB King said when you put something out there it's now there for everyone just watch him talk about it on UA-cam he new Elvis when Elvis was 16... music is there for everyone everyone borrowed from everyone else That's Reality
Actually Elvis praised the Beatles when discussing the music shift from the 50’s to the 70’ and other upcoming bands during the come back special in 68. Elvis was a generous heart that treated everyone with respect. He was good to everyone but himself, unfortunately. RIP king!
In an interview Goulet said he only met Elvis once and that they had such a nice conversation that when they parted Elvis took off a gold ring and gifted to him.
i gave a car to a guy who tried a number of times to falsely accuse me of raping his toddler, i did that to show him that his words have no pwer
According to the Memphis Mafia - The only thing negatively said about any of the Beatles - Was that when they came to visit they were so in awe of Elvis that they made him uneasy with all the staring. I don't believe this guy is correct that "Elvis couldn't stand John Lennon" - Personally, I don't believe Elvis thought too much about any of them one way or another🤷♀️
This video is like so many others out there, trying to stir up people's emotions to get a few more views and potential "likes."
I agree because your comment matches what i have always read about their first meeting. I hate to read bad and incorrect journalism that is printed here !
Larry Geller said he gave John his personal phone number and that John would call him.. and that they bonded..so now I don't know what to believe..maybe the truth is somewhere in the middle
I Also heard that John had said that even though wanted to be Elvis in the 50s- he said when they became the Beatles, they purposely didn't move like Elvis- and I thought, "Oh John, give me a break, if you all had tried to move like Elvis, it would have been laugh out loud funny...You just would have not been able to pull it off..so don't even go there..por favor"-- LOL.
Yes, girls screamed for you but there's no way you could have moved like Elvis..😂
Elvis would love the fact that over 40 years after he passed, we are still interested in him.
He thought he'd be forgotten, but who can ever forget a King..
Frankly I’d forgotten him until I saw this video.
@@dennissilber287 I was about 12 when he died, I remember my mother wailing, and then the neighbor lady came over and the 2 of them crying, before long the kitchen was full of women all my mom's age.
My dad was like " OMG if they pull out their old poodle skirts that's it "
By dark the coffee had been switched to wine, now they had the record player going with his music. ( and all singing off key to him)
The men stayed outside, dad started a BBQ and they talked about how they had all knew how bad Elvis had looked but didn't think he would die so young.
This went on for 2 days.
After that, every time one of his movies came on TV, the world had to stop and we had to watch. I really didn't have a clue till years later how important this guy and his music has been to an entire generation. Myself I liked some of his music, but really just felt sad for the guy, all that fame, and yet he lived a lonely life.
Elvis was so beautifully handsome. What a man, what a voice, loved him and always will. I love all his songs, but Jailhouse Rock is my favourite and so we’re his leather pants!! ❤️💕♥️💕❤️♥️
That leather suit he wore in the 1968 come back special... 😍
Really? Well to each their own I guess 😬
My favourite Elvis song is “If I can Dream”. At the ‘68 Comeback Special, he is so emotive and earnest throughout that performance. It really stirs me up inside. He looks, and sounds, like an angel on Earth.
I reckon so.
When I first heard “If I Can Dream”, I immediately became a huge Elvis fan! What a wonderful song and performance it is!!
American trilogy is my second. Im not even American but the arrangement on it is sublime.
Yes, the lyrics to "If I can Dream" are still relevant today.
The Comeback Special was really great !
If you want to hear an amazing story, look up Robert Plant talking about the time Led Zeppelin went to see Elvis and were invited back to Elvis' hotel suite. Such an amazing story. Really thought a lot of Robert Plant as a person after hearing that.
Is that the time they ended up swapping jewelry with each other? I read about it in their former manager's book and he said one of Elvis's bodyguards told Zeppelin as they were leaving they hadn't seen Elvis have such a good time in a long while.
Prob had 14 yr ol gurls locked in his closet like Plant did too oh wait Pricilla
@@antivalueum Priscilla waz 14 when Elvis jumped on her in Germany. Page had 14 yr olds locked in his tour bus & hotel rooms too. Was my comment
I’ve seen that and it’s wonderful. There’s a clip where EP starts the stage show and stops singing and the band stops playing when EP says, “Now look, Led Zeppelin is here tonight so let’s act like we know what we’re doing even if we don’t.” It’s so funny! They ended up spending about two hours together in EP’s suite before wrapping up and then Plant and Presley sang to each other. Plant had tears in his eyes when telling the story because he really loved EP’s vocal ability.
@@banrap9369 oh stfu. Elvis didn't touch her til she was 21. She admitted that. He didn't keep her locked up so he could bang her like Page did with his girls. I'd have tried for an hour with Elvis back then even if I was 14 tho. Rawwr 😈😂😂
Was never a Beatles fan. Not surprised at their comments. Elvis shone brighter than all of these people!!
Yet Elvis was and still better than any of the others!!!💯
This does,nt match up with how my uncle described Elvis at all, he was in the same barracks as Elvis in 58 and had nothing but good things to say about Elvis.
Thats because Elvis was indeed a good human being! I think the drugs he took distorted his way of thinking. The man didnt take drugs to get high, he took
them to sleep and took them to stay awake. Thats not good. 💊😙😑
Amen
@Critique Everything No, i,m not and I had the name before he was born.
@@garychambers5850 he took drugs for the same reason anyone takes them . He liked the way they made him feel . He took them to get high . He was human just like every other addict /
@@christopherstarr8050 Nope..... you need to read "Destined to Die young". Elvis was actually a very sick man, and self medicated a lot to cope with chronic conditions.
For Sinatra to complain about the morality of any other performer would be "the pot calling the kettle black."
Frank Sinatra was a lousy ainger/actor he was also a known gangster he is a nobody to boot who cares that he hated Elvis don't think Elvis gave ahoot
@@gailelizabethmoffat5066 nonsense you could dislike him if you want but they guy was a good actor and even greater singer (he has an Oscar for Christ sakes)
I remember Jackie Gleason held a "decency
rally," the day after Jim Morrison got arrested in Florida. Of all people!

Elvis is the king and will always be
spot on. He is king and an amazing guitarist - unreal... love him x zillions
ALWAYS
Only one king and he didn't die on a toilet.
Just a womanizer, drug addict not anyone I would idolize.
@@patriciadault8983 Well I guess everybody aint perfect like you. That's the problem I have with you perfect people you like to judge everybody. But honey we have all sin and come short of the glory. I just hope to God you are sure about your Gloriousness before you draw your last breath you make it right. He or she who lives in glass houses should not throw stones it's between God and Elvis.
@@nilgiridreaming Elvis was no guitarist. Scotty Moore is the man on all the songs Elvis covered.
Very smart man Elvis was. Beatles did not have a chance with him. Every man wanted to be Elvis and every woman wanted him.
This woman didn't. I'd have taken John or Paul any day.
He was the greatest. What’s your favorite Elvis song?
Not every woman
the beatles outsold him in his lifetime. elvis hated the beatles because of that fact.
Every musician/band wanted to be the Beatles!
You'll Never Walk Alone - I love the way he sang Gospel music. His voice though still rich is so loving, tender and and even respectful, full of worship for Almighty God. It's what I play when driving my car, makes me feel like angels are flying along side of me, protecting me. As far as everything else he sang, I can't pick a favorite. They are are so filled with mainly joy but also real emotion. He was a heavenly gift in more ways than one. Thank you Elvis for being real.
Made a hit by Gerry and the Pacemakers in the UK. Elvis made a right mess of it. That's why Dolly Pardon wouldn't let him record. I Will Always Love You. But let Whitney Houston record it. She made a good job of it.
@@glenearl9506 You have not idea what you're talking about...
@@omych97 You don’t know what you’re talking about. That’s All Right Mama. My Baby Left Me were songs by Arthur Crudup. Elvis never paid him any royalties. He died in POVERTY while Elvis went on to become rich. That’s what the internet for. Look it up before you make stupid comments. Otis Blackwell suffered the same fate. Fool.
Angels might be flying alongside you.
He was so nice he barely had any enemies or people who hated him
Lennon worshipped Elvis..and the Beatles complemented Elvis for being able to handle tremendous pressure...alone!
@antartic orb
They sympathized with him having to deal with it, not complemented on how well he did.
Being a prescription drug addict while all the time being a total hypocrite regarding other kinds of drugs, as well as an eating disorder in his later years, is hardly anyone's idea of handling anything "well".
Yepp Lennon loved Elvis but as you can see in the video they got dissapointed. It wasnt the Elwis they adored they met.
@@spacemaker8760 really? because the living Beatles have said otherwise
Elvis was an unique celebrity in every way. Every celebrity who has died over the last 60 years was hardly cold in the ground when there emerged all kinds of horror stories of how they used their celebrity status to abuse young women and men and treat people like dirt. Elvis is now gone 45 years and not one single story of bad behavior by the 'king' has come to light. He was one decent human being who treated the people he met, whether rich or poor with dignity and respect. When someone is as gifted as Elvis was, there is always a price to pay and though he fought bravely as only a true King could, he was eventually defeated by the demons who had haunted him for so long. But what a treasure trove he left behind for us and following generations to enjoy. Was Elvis the greatest of them all?...course he was!!
Yes there was. Elvia liked teenage girls.
He groomed minors and married his wife when she was a minor and abused her..
@@Ihavepinkeye I would take whatever Pricilla says with a grain of salt....she was infatuated with Elvis. Elvis should have married his first girlfriend...
sorry i meant a full 8 years after they met they got married
But the thing is no ine had a problem with it. its not up to us modern people to judge how people reacted in the past because at that time no one had an issue with it. and its a little “late” to have an issue with it
In a interview with Paul McCartney he was asked who was the coolest person you ever met , he said his wife and Elvis .
Clearly McCartney was raised by a mother with good manners and instilled respect into her son.
@@kazkaz2212 I’m jealous
why would mcCartney say his wife was cool? she took him for half of everything he owned when she divorced him.
@@davidwelch5186
His first wife
@@janetmcgibney that's what I was thinking - Linda
Elvis had class and discretion something others knew nothing about.
Elvis got a long with everyone. He may of thought differently in private. That was his right. Not everyone is likeable. Some were down right rude to people and even fans. You could never say that about Elvis. He adored all of his fans. Always tried to make his fans like him and happy. Don't Be Cruel, Suspicious Minds and many more.
Obviously NOT!
*may HAVE thought
Yeah, not like Lennon who didn't stand his fans, he thought he was more popular than Jesus and was obviously just delusional.
@@omych97 I heard Elvis wasn't too impressed by Lennon's comment about being more popular than Jesus Christ.
@@omych97 stop spouting this bullshit 55 years later. That’s not what he meant with the Jesus comment
With each passing day the number of Elvis admirers grows more and more, it is unmatched and its influence was much stronger than most imagine.
I count myself amount them. I’ve of course always known who Elvis is, but I’ve really only become a super fan over the past 6 months or so. My husband is taking me to Graceland this fall! I can’t wait!
@@woohyukikkoku Keep your eyes open for an old guy with white hair and beard. Elvis himself secretly visits there from time to time...
Yes, Elvis has countless movies made about him, and even has hit songs written about him, with such radio classics as "Black Velvet" "Walking In Memphis" and "Going To Graceland." Apparently, there are a few people that claim that most people don't know who he is, but still comment about him constantly. lol.
Nope. Like it or not, they are dying faster than they are being made.
@@swords247 Like the next generation to follow. Besides, humans die of all ages.
Sinatra’s beef wasn’t with Elvis but Rock in general. Sinatra is famous for his emotional ties with the lyrics. He called many of his ballads as poetry set to music. He complained that with harder rock you couldn’t hear what the lead singer was saying...Elvis and Frank got along very well and for many years...
Elvis actually, sang several Beatles songs like, "Something," "Get Back," "Hey Jude," "Lady Madonna," and "Yesterday."
none of them Lennons, smart choice :))
Hey Jude is not a good song for Lennon. Paul wrote it to make Lennon’s son Julian feel better for the way his dad and ono were treating him.
I confess I was surprised to hear elvis performing Beatles songs. I had hoped that he had warmed up to them, when he realised that they were not a threat to his enduring success.
None were penned by John.
@@adrien2323 right, it amazes me to this day. John Lennon was objectively horrible in the way that he treated his own family and friends, but be ready to get get gang piled if you ever publicly mention this on social media. People still protect that jackass and make all sorts of excuses for his behavior, and i don't understand why. I know innumerable people who had it hard growing up -but they didn't turn out to be anti-social jerks! If anything, their hardships tempered them into kinder, more compassionate people.
Great report with an nice Elvis photo. Thanks✌👑👼🌹❤
It has to be said, Elvis served his country in the military, Sinatra, and other critics did not.
So? Lol. Serving America means nothing.
@@naysaynetwork5271 It means nothing to me either, I'm British, I was pointing out Elvis did not wriggle out of conscription.
@Eddie Edwards Yes and all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice are reaping those rewards you are referring to also. I served and it is idiots like you I can be at peace in saying I didn't do it for you. Besides you are more than capable of serving your own selfish self.

Elvis Served His Country..🇷🇺👍
When Elvis died, John Lennon famously said, Elvis died when he joined the Army. Having said that, John Lennon did say that he enjoyed meeting Elvis in 1965 saying "it was great." I got the quote from the Beatles Anthology.
When it comes to Elvis vs. John Lennon, there aren't many instances when I would agree with Lennon, but I can see where he was coming from when he made this statement. Early Elvis was the man who inspired him to become who he was. Personally, I have always thought that Elvis' best work - BY FAR, was that which he did before he went in the Army. After he came back, he was still Elvis, but he was never again "Elvis" in my mind, and apparently, also in the mind of John Lennon. Having said that, if I had to choose between listening to the music (and being a fan of) either Elvis or the Beatles, give me Elvis - every single time. Long live The King! May they both rest in peace.
Leave them alone, they're dead!!
Elvis went to Nixon to get a DEA badge for himself. Nothing more. Elvis never met Hoover.
Yeah exactly. I immediately smelled bullshit on that John Lennon stuff. I believe it was John Lennon who said without Elvis there would be no Beatles. I think their meeting went fine.
Exactly!🙄
Yeah, almost everything this clown said was false.
I'm wondering how accurate this really is
That is exactly what i read too. The entire John Lennon story in this video is a load of bull. Can´t fool die hard fans.
I wish Elvis lived to see the revival in the 1980's of the music he began in 1954...he would have lived it and given us even more songs to enjoy , maybe with "rockabilly" revivalists playing.
How do you know if he died you know that body in coffin don't look like him they made him look like a man from his fifties not the man who weighed 250 pounds..
@@MrmaruC to be fair Elvis did gain and lose weight fast because of the water retention from the sickness and prescription. Which is why in 1977, there are concerts where Elvis looked very bloated, and like a week later at another concert alot thinner.
As Paul said about Lennon, "he's a swine." That about sums it up. Elvis Aron Presley is and will always be The King.
Well Paul Mccartneys best friend was Lennon. Hes a swine but i love him.
"He's a swine" was a recurring joke tagline in the 1964 film A Hard Day's Night; started by a character who played Paul's grandfather, then taken up as need (to refer to varying others) by each other Beatle.
The king of plagiarism. How can you be an artist when you don't create anything? He's just a cover singer.
@@JudgeJulieLit "He's very clean," from A Hard Day's Night.😁
@@LJ-MMA My sentiments exactly. Presley was more of an entertainer than he was a musician.
“Suspicious Minds” , “You Were Always On My Mind” & “In The Ghetto”

thanks for this video,elvis was very courteous and polite I think he was right to not talk politics he was someone we will never have again
Without Elvis there would be no Beatles!! #fact
That’s like saying without Einstein there would be no theory of relativity. Someone else would have eventually figured it out. But Paul McCartney owes some of his style to Elvis, but also to Little Richard so who knows? Without Elvis the Beatles would still be possible if not quite the same. The Rolling Stones would still be totally possible without Elvis, but may have been different without Chuck Berry.
Are we not gonna talk about how southern Elvis is at 3:28 I love that he’s not afraid of show he’s from the south 😂
Elvis could teach politicians how to conduct interviews.

Yeah come on over and burn! lol. I love Elvis too. In the Ghetto, Kentucky Rain. My dad took me to see him in Hawaii. I was 12 at the time and wasn't a big Elvis fan at that point. I didn't realize at the time WHO i was seeing live and very close seat. He died four years later. :-( RIP.
@@mrflynn01 Yes, he was a puppet. Totally controlled by Col. Tom! I appreciate him, of course, but the hyperbole is preposterous!
I said for me. I don’t need to justify why I think he’s still the king.
He didn’t need to write his own songs. His kindness, amazing sense of humour, his generosity - his voice and dynamic performances was enough.
Elvis' dislike of Robert Goulet started when his girlfriend Anita Wood went on tour with Goulet. At the end of a letter Anita wrote to Elvis, Goulet added his own personal note. He wrote, "don't worry Elvis, I'm taking GOOD CARE of her." It was a stupid thing to say, and I have no idea why Anita would allow that to be added to her letter.
I loved Robert Goulet's voice. He was very talented. His voice was so rich and he sang with such ease. Maybe Elvis was jealous 🤔

ALL his love songs.... so beautiful.... but Always on my Mind, It's now or Never are favourite. xxx
He was a great mate of Ali and John lennon in concert said I love you Elvis . Frank and Elvis were good mates and supported many charities together so this is pretty overblown .
Yes, I remember a concert with Elton John and guest John Lennon. They sang a cool cover of (You ain't nothing but a) Hound Dog. In the middle of the song, John Lennon said, "Elvis I love you". This live cover was released on John Lennon's 4-CD Box Set.
I wish Lennon would have been deported. He’d still be alive.
what a comment and spot on!
I am stunned. You are correct. He would have been much safer in a lot of other countries
Safe to beat wives and neglect his children.
@@lalalarose8197 He beat Yoko? He wrote a song about his son with her, "Beautiful Boy."
@@JudgeJulieLit His first wife wasn’t so lucky.
When the Beatles arrived at Graceland they came in and sat down in a music room. Elvis came in sat down and the Beatles just sat there not saying a word. Just staring at Elvis. Elvis said, if you are not going to talk, I'll go back to bed. Then the conversation and "jam" session began.
The Elvis/Beatles meeting was not at Graceland, it was at one of Elvis’s houses in Bel Air California. But you are correct about the other things you mentioned.

@@jackgill3832 Something.
I’m with The King Elvis when it comes to Lennon. The problem that Old Blue Eyes had with Elvis and Rock N Roll is that rock music was making a Crooner like Frank and his type of music obsolete.
Lennon sang about peace but he used to beat his first wife.
@@laurawilloughby4000 No he bloody did not. Cynthia herself said he hit her once during the early part of their relationship and felt so bloody bad about it he never touched her again!
True. And then, by 1965, Elvis's type of music became obsolete.
However, in truth, all great music -- e.g., Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, the Beatles, the Melvins -- stands the test of time, beyond pop culture trends.
Elvis and Lennon were both full of shit. I'll listen to their music, but that's it.
@@xander9564 But Elvis still drew audiences. He developed health and mental problems in his later years, but he could still perform.
I love Elvis. ❤️
My three favorites are "In The Ghetto", "Little Sister" and "A Little Less Conversation" (the original version)
captaincarl8 those are good ones. My two are Suspicious Minds and Moody Blue.

An American Trilogy was his Live Masterpiece!
Mine are Just Pretend, wash my hands in muddy water and How great Thou art.
I love so much of his catalog, but the three winners are:
“Peace in the Valley”
“Promised Land”
“Hound Dog/Santa Claus is back in town (original without big band backing) (Tie)”
I mean there is so much, but these are the ones that really resonate w Me
At least Elvis was smart in keeping his political views to himself. Unlike many celebrities today. That's the way you keep ALL of your fans is by keeping those views to yourself.
If celebrities are passionate about politics, then there is no problem with them talking about it and speaking their mind on current world issues. Most rock and roll has roots in politics. It came up from the old African American blues musicians telling how their lives were. Then it transitioned into the 60s when the next gen was protesting the war. Then the 70s when they were protesting government control on drugs. Then in the 80s they were protesting censorship and the Reagan administration. Politics have always made their way into rock and roll from it’s very start, whether it be Little Richard, The Beatles, Black Sabbath, or Judas Priest. They had millions of fans, and were still passionate about politics, and have thousands of fans who don’t even agree with their political stance, but love the music.
That is so true
That's is true
John Lennon - "im gonna ruin my career"
Am I mistaken, according to this story, Elvis carried on a vendetta, even went to the president, how is this keeping your opinion to yourself.
When the Beatles did the Hollywood Bowl show they spent the afternoon at Elvis's Beverly Hills property. Elvis became convinced that the Beatles never really liked their fans. And he said the resentment formulated from those girls screaming like that. And the Candlestick Park show it angered them.
Elvis is the king!!
Actually a sad woman abuser

Elvis loved the Beatles music ( He often sang their classics on stage or in rehearsals. He loved Something. yesterday. Hey Jude. And Get Back ) but yeah he didn't like their persona much.
However he had a jam session with them that was never recorded. I would give anything to hear that
Elvis liked great songs. It wasn't always about the people who wrote them. You're right.
They were from different generations and cultures, it shouldn't be surprising that Elvis & the Beatles wouldn't agree on everything.
This is the first time I've ever heard about Elvis having an issue with the Beatles.
Apparently Elvis wasn't too impressed by John Lennon's comment about the Beatles being bigger than Jesus Christ. To anyone who held religious beliefs, that would have been sacrilegious.
Yes, all none-Lennon songs 😆
Elvis was right
Elvis connected to a higher power when he sang gospel and that is what made him a real king!
he took drugs too, don't forget that.
something all Elvis fan should aspire to.
Be like Elvis, take drugs, now!
Elvis's input in this film; - 'Honey, I'd just as soon to keep my own personal views about that to myself'..
Elvis was the best ,no matter what!! The Beatles could never come close to Elvis!!
wasn't he a drug user?
He was the greatest. What’s your favorite Elvis song?
Elvis never wrote a song. He just covered other peoples.
My first 45 I ever bought was jailhouse rock , great taste from the start 👍👍
Mystery train, His latest flame and Guitar Man
Excellent taste.. like us here in South Africa. We love Elvis' music
"Everybody in the whole cellblock....was dancing to the JAILHOUSE ROCK". You have good taste.
You’re not serious comparing Jail House Rock to the true king’s (Buddy Holly) Peggysue and That’ll be the day 😂Buddy Holly Lives, pure genius!!
My grandfather would’ve loved to of met Elvis personally. He probably would’ve busted a gut seeing Elvis shoot out a TV.
One time I showed him the Django unchained. When he saw Schultz shoot the sheriff; he said “I like this guy. He’s direct!” I miss you old man!
I was and still am a big Elvis fan. When the Beatles first started, I thought they were okay singers, but the only one who has a pretty good voice was Paul. the rest were average.. John Lennon seemed to be very full of himself. He said, "Elvis died the day, he went into the army." I think Elvis is still wowing them, and just go to Graceland and see what he means to so many fans. Since he came on the scene in 1956, he has amassed as of 2017, 197 gold, Platinum, multi platinum and diamond certification awards. Also in 2017 the Beatles had 122. Case closed.
Both Lennon and McCartney were fantastic singers, fantastic song writers and fantastic performers, and, on top of that, hilarious in their interviews.. There will never be a band that come close to what the Beatles achieved. I think your adoration of Elvis is clouding your judgement. F.uk all those stupid certification awards. The Beatles have the most No. 1 hits of all time - case closed.
That's exactly my point..they don't come close to Elvis
Elvis has more gold, silver, and platinum records is because he had more recorded material than the Beatles. Using commercial success, the amount of hit records, or records that were certified gold, silver or platinum is not a measure of who is better. 122 gold, silver, and platinum records is not a small achievement.
@@vrinda5303 - Yes, but how many of those songs did he write himself?
John Lennon and Elvis are both in the top 10 tier of Rolling Stones Magazine's 100 greatest singers if all time. McCartney is no.11 but still not bad. But I think Lennon, Roy Orbison, Tom Jones are the best singers.
Rock on King !
Well...Engelbert certainly kept the Beatles out of #1 for a year with his smash hit Release Me!!!
Quite frankly, Englebert is underrated and better than the Beatles!
Right ON!
Only in his own country,Over here "Penny Lane" was #1.
@@PNFLnetwork Hahahahahahahahahaha.. So funny. That guy Justin Beiber his wayyyyyyyyyyy better than Humperdinck and he sucks!
Dont ever put The Beatles in the same category as Humperdinck... 😠
I was kind of stung when Engelbert was mentioned. The very first thing I heard when I came to America was A Man Without Love.
I’ve always wondered what Elvis would have thought of Madonna. Holy cow! That would have been the quote of the Century!!
In choosing between a King and a Working Class Hero, I have no doubts what my feelings are.
Well, he was as human as any of us
God bless us all 🙏🏿🌎❤️
Great channel. Wonderful content. 🖖🏻🇨🇦
If Elvis hated The Beatles so much , why did he include their songs in his live show ?
He was so high off pills he forgot he hated them
Elvis only backflipped his opinion because he felt threatened for his legacy and status. The Beatles stole the show in the 60s and he hated it.
The Beatles couldn't even stand each other 😆
@@loganlefley1616 elvis never hated anyone
@@MrmaruC Maybe Elvis didn't hate but dislike some people. What's wrong about that? Why do Elvis a disservice and try to take away his humanity and make him a saint?
I’m with Elvis!!🤟🏻
dead?
I like Elvis even more now.
Oh yeah me too!
Absolutely.
same just because of the beatles
If I had picked between these two I would pick Elvis you can't compare the Beatles with Elvis bc he made movies n was greatest singer of all..the Beatles don't even come close..
The Beatles exspected too much of the meeting with Elvis I guess and then were disappointed that Elvis was surrounded by the so-called Memphis Mafia and other hangers-on. As McCartney put it later: The Beatles had each other but Elvis as a solo artist and star was in a way depended on those people and when they realized that they took advantage of it.
Elvis saw the Beatles as a threat musically.
George was a good friend of Elvis and went to see him new York in 72 George also rote the the song something which elvis recorded
I thought it was Vegas. You're probably right.
So if George was such a good friend why is he being so indifferent and dismissive of Elvis in this video? Really NOT COOL.
George was not a good friend of Elvis , only met him once or twice
This 1972 meeting would be at Madison Square Garden where Elvis broke attendance records being the first to sell out 4 shows there. Many other big time entertainers were in the audience.
All of The Beatles were fans of Elvis, even if they didn't like his later career all that much. I don't think they were friends, though.
Elvis was a star 🌟
monstar!
Chris - Breaking news !! Just in !! Elvis was a star !! Thanks !
monstar!!
Of course he'll always be a Star!! ⭐
Elvis and Frank Sinatra was in fact good friends.Sinatra was very worried about Elvis health until the very end and called Elvis often.
It delivered most of these commenters are knowledgeable and protective about Elvis Presley and his true mindset as far as political involvement which he was not politically involved and his gentlemanly persona. Isn’t it wonderful. ❤
💫✨Jesus is my Lord and Savior✝️✨💫
My favorite song by him is amazing grace
He was the greatest. What’s your favorite Elvis song?
good for Elvis... Even back then people trying to use the USA .. Long live Elvis!!!!!
Damn straight !
Thank you.
I now know which side Elvis would be on today.
A Trumpet.
Well , I never liked him anyway.
Awesome
I don't think he would've of covered five of their tunes, if he truly didn't at least acknowledge The Beatles. I don't think Elvis cared for John Lennon that much because the man was criticized in the deep south bible belt for saying The Beatles were bigger than Jesus. Because Elvis would not talk bad about anyone publicly while alive, they want to start wars over pure speculation. The Richard Nixon thing was for a badge. He collected them. Later, Elvis met with Jimmy Carter. Elvis was still doing "Something" in concert, and would later do "Little Sister/Get Back" in 1972. Frank Sinatra hated rock n roll, but later softened up on his rants when he realized that he was still successful as an artist. Elvis stayed away from expressing his views on religion and politics, which is why the liberal media likes to attack dead people, who can not even defend themselves. Elvis served in the US Army and chose not to be a draft dodger. They assume Elvis was a Republican, when he really had no interest in any political office.
@Chris Wyatt The daughter of President John F Kennedy, Caroline Kennedy attended Elvis's funeral in Memphis. She is part of the Kennedy dynasty of Democratic leadership. Besides that, Elvis was distantly related to Jimmy Carter. As far as his mama and daddy, I don't know if they even voted. They were dirt poor and I doubt they followed politics.
lennon was misquoted. he said 'the beatles have become more popular than jesus' which actually remains true. jesus is exclusively worshipped by christians, where the beatles' fandom isn't restricted by any religion.
@@jpbart1390 don't ever mock Jesus n what Lennon said was hypocrite I know he's dead n lot people didn't like him cause his religion beliefs but God is in control of the universe. So therefore don't ever mock God bc without him we wouldn't be nothing..Elvis was a true Christian believer n he might be king of rock n roll but the reality is Jesus is only king he even said himself.. I'm just entertainer only Jesus is king..
@@MrmaruC well, i'm sorry i mocked your imaginary friend,...NOT!
@@jpbart1390 don't ever mock God again bc people have done that now their dead..n Lennon wasn't Christian he wasn't bigger than Jesus you just blasphemy. Lennon was hypocrite angry man certainly nor bigger than elvis!!
Nowadays, its Rap that is the true evil of demoralizing - “Without Elvis, there would be no Beatles,” John Lennon stated matter-of-factly in a 1980 interview.
There is no more rock n roll, rap crap has taken over as the most mainstream music. Think about it...the only bands who are big are old school ones. I like SOME lyrical rap artists, but most of the mumble rap, lean drinking, autotuned, hoe flashing GARBAGE can go. We need someone like Elvis, The Beatles, Kurt Cobain to shake up music and bring on something new...but sadly the don't make many like them. :(
@@queencerseilannister3519 The old school bands are out there. Unfortunately they can't get heard. Stop listening to classic rock and top 40.
What form of music should Elvis been grateful for?
Without black music, Elvis would have retired on the garage truck.
Plz let’s give credit where credit is do.
Elvis was a great showman, however, he never “invented rock n roll!!!”
There was Buddy Holly before Elvis. Who band the Crickets John named the Beatles after .
I think rap was OK in the early nineties. It's evolved a lot over the years and I don't like the direction it's going in but I wouldn't call the style itself to be evil.
That pic of elvis with the double guitar though
