Elvis Presley - "Never Been to Spain" (1972)
Вставка

- Although an awesome performance, Elvis' reading of Hoyt Axton's "Never Been to Spain" isn't nearly as popular as his cover versions of "Proud Mary" and "Polk Salad Annie". That's pretty much a shame because what Elvis makes of what in Axton's original version is a pretty simple country song is amazing. He adds a little R & B here and a little (country) rock there, it has something of a big show tune, it's even a little funky. The band is absolutely at the top of its game and probably the best band of the world at that time.
This version here is of course taken from the Golden Globe Award winning rockumentary "Elvis on Tour" (1972) by Robert Abel and Pierre Adidge. Elvis also took it to Madison Square Garden about six weeks later. Together with "Proud Mary" and "Polk Salad Annie" "Never been to Spain" forms what I call the "1972 Trilogy". A group of three contemporary rock songs that prove Elvis to be the greatest single performer of the time. I wish he'd done more stuff like this. - Розваги
Elvis' rendition of this song is the best in my opinion. The man could sing like no other. An incredible phenomenon.
One of my all time favorites by Elvis a true Power song
Absolutely fabulous! He is unmatched and this is 2022
never will
Hoyt Axton wrote it but Three Dog Night RULES on this song. Elvis doesn’t cut it.
One of my favourite songs ever by Three Dog Night, but with all due respect to them, Elvis’ version is the end all! That’s how good he was! Same with ‘Bridge over Troubled Water’ He just makes me forget all the other versions! ❤️
Tatzy Batzy amen
Yes very True. The Greatest Elvis 🕺.
Agreed and his version of release me
Actually Hoyt Axton is the original singer of this song, but Three Dog Night does a great cover.
@@livinglegend3876 thanks I didn’t know that - will check it out!
I have seen Elvis in 75,77 simply the best ever
Oh, You are so lucky.
Dang it your lucky
How hard was it to get tickets??
Wow that’s super awesome you got to see Elvis Presley sing Live on stage in person !🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😁😁😁😁
Wow, you were so lucky
Others today try but fail, thanks Elvis.
Elvis died when I was just a kid. I loved his music, and still do. I still remember where I was when he died. I was in the kitchen, helping my mom dry dishes. I broke down and started crying my eyes out. My mom just bawled her eyes out. She was born in 42, and I was born in 62. Thanks for posting.
me too...
I was 16 when the king left us. I came home and my mom was sitting in the living room crying. I listen to Elvis everyday.
It was 2 days before my 5th B-day and i was standing in the living room when my mom burst into tears. She just got off the phone with my grandmother with the news. I asked her why she was crying. She said, “Elvis just died.” I didn’t understand and i had never seen momma cry before. That day will be forever be planted in my memory. The only 2 times I ever saw momma cry. When Elvis died and when Daddy died.
I was 5 when elvis died I didn't know anything at 5. But I knew who elvis was. It came on the one o'clock news and i said to my dad as he walked through the front door dad elvis died. Just proves how famous this guy was and still is.
I remember where I was as well. I was a skater and was skating in a pool, in a house, a few blocks from Weird Al Yankovic lived.
Heard another version on the radio the other day but knew I'd heard a clip of Elvis singing it so I went to look for it and now it's on my favorite Playlist on Spotify. I listened to it on repeat today driving from Pigeon Forge tn to Dandridge..bout 45 minutes..that's a few repeats..all I can say is it makes me happy!! 😊
I think that had Elvis lived he would have done a world tour or at least a tour of Europe ! could you imagine him singing this song in Spain? and the crowds going crazy!
At 1:17 he just rising up to a level ONLY he can !!!!! WHOA !!!!
I get chills every time I listen to it, on repeat when Im in the mood...its amazing...truly underappreciated event. Thats the only way I can describe the song, its an event.
Love the way he starts off smooth with this song then just at that moment he lets that raw emotion pour out from with in his soul and that is what makes him the King of Rock and Roll , yeah Baby!!!!
Love me tender Elvis. Presley
ELVIS is the king of music no matter what.
What a voice nothing or no one comes close
It's second to Andrea bocelli.
The number one !!! Unique.
Bes6 in. The world. The KING.
tom jones
A true gift from God!
I love him singing this song. Listen to someone else then you will see how great he is.
Absolutely agree!!!!! My three favourites from that period also.
Elvis Presley was a good performer with a incredible voice and the ability to make any song a number one hit.
Elvis was a GREAT performer.
Люди добрые! Я узнала Элвиса в 70 лет. Слушаю каждый день. Восхищаюсь!
French horns, Baritone trombones .....this guy wa stacked. NOBODY does it like the KING.
Gods lead singer in heavens choir, who he shared with us for 42 years
The King.... RIP Elvis.
Wow wow wow amazing. Prince of all the times. Elvis we miss you so so much😢😢😢
God Bless him.
I am so sorry if this sounds weird but you wrote such a nice and wonderful comment on here and I like your comment. I can tell you're a very positive person. If it's okay with you I'd love to be friends
❤ 🎶 "Absolutely Fabulous 💘 ; Beloved Elvis Presley 💃 an Extraordinary Voice 🎶 and Persona like No Other's.. Magnificence 🏆 ln Abundance. Thanks for Sharing and Enjoy A Delightful 💃 Evening..". 🎶 ❤
I was only 3 when elvis passed , but as a 47 year old as of 2022 , I miss him like a dear family member.
I am 45 and feel the same way…something very special about him
Elvis, 3 dog night, Ringo and many others should thank the Oklahoma born Hoyt Axton for writing this song. He was one of my favorites!
Wasn't he the red head kid on Different Strokes dad? He was good. That kid could sing the hell outta Hank Sr. too.
Prince of another planet!!""
@@MysteryTrain I know. But HE IS THE Prince if another planet..The number one, the best!!!
Elvis On Tour was a great documentary and I also love this song it is so Brilliantly Awesome I give it 2 billion stars Elvis does it so great!!!!! R.I.P Elvis you are so sadly missed
Outstandingly Brilliant Performance From The Greatest King of Music who Never Came To England.
The greatest of all time ❤️👑
Top Song👍👍
ELVIS looks and sounds AMAZING here! 🤩
👑 🎶🎤🐅 *T⚡️C⚡️B* 🐅🎤🎶 👑
Incredible voice
Elvis is Music...Music is Elvis
I'm speechless 🔥❤️🔥
If anyone needs a reminder as to why he was The King, just turn up the volume at the 1:15 second mark and you'll be reminded. If that doesn't give you goosebumps ,your simply not alive!
Period. (y) PLUS the whole band absolutely shines on this one. They're hot! Check out Ronnie's fill-in at 2:10. How cool is that?
Thetripletman60
Thetripletman60 He was fantastic!!!
Thetripletman60 agreed . Elvis 🕺 was a gospel singer. Only gospel singers have that ability to make you get goose bumps and feel heaven
to this day and after I'm gone he'll still be the King
There is Elvis
Then everyone else.
I love that show this is Elvis
Los músicos y coro también eran unos fuera de serie,se entendían a la perfección con Elvis,me encanta,pero no le hace falta ni música para esa voz,que a fecha de hoy,nadie la ha igualado,el era perfecto en todo,,tampoco le ha igualado nadie como hombre fisicamente
The king 👑👑👑
Te amo pastor Bob Joyce... Elvis vive. Gracias Dios
This song still stands up 50 years later
So gifted and beautiful ❤️❤️we miss you so much ❤️🇨🇭🇺🇸
Fabulous
He's never been to Heaven says his song! But surely now he's already there in Heaven!
Not yet, still, one more "test, trial" for the soul so you can prove to God and yourself you have acquired the wisdom to not let any "evil" ideas get beyond just a fleeting thought.
@@icanfartloud nobody likes a damn KNOWITALL 😤😤
He's probably just enjoying himself, changing gear, going up an octave and that fantastic band behind him.
wot a voice , this man could reach a high C tying his shoelaces
That drummer killed it! You could see he was diggin it.
He could reach down deep .looks really tall too .
what a good analysis Timothy up there!! thanks for this and the video!!
Oh my goodness....I am in heaven! Than you for upload....this is awesome!
Elvis had a connection with Hoyt Axton, his mother cowrote "Heartbreak Hotel," another big hit for The King.
Of course as most true Elvis fans know, THIS video and version of NBTS was recorded for "Elvis On Tour" in San Antonio in the spring of '72. This is not from the MSG RCA album recorded in June of '72. This is an excellent version of the Three Dog Night classic. It was written by Hoyt Axton, who's mother May Axton wrote...Heartbreak Hotel.
I loved this information.
Hoyt Axton's mother was "Mae" Boren Axton and she co-wrote Heartbreak Hotel with Tommy Durden.
@@RMoore-zt7zs sorry, I did spell “Mae” incorrectly. I stand corrected. Thanks @R. .Moore.
Another amazing song by Elvis such a timeless Classic hit single from 1972
Great video, Elvis the king forever.
Awesome 🎸 I Love Elvis ❤ His music is my favorite 💋
VIVA ELVIS!!!

in 0:58 his shoulder shaking bcs he knows that in 1:15 he will "explode"...in 2:42 its the best voice ever heard in this planet at his pick!
LONG LIVE THE KING!
Great song TCB band is on fire & what can u say about the man himself both physically & vocally he just wacks it out of the ball park.
i remember first watching this Documentary Movie at a Local Outdoor Drive In Theater in the Summer 1973. Among my favorite Documentary Movie i ever saw along with the 1969 Woodstock Movie Documentary from 1970.
Heartfelt thank you, Elvis, for your Huge Love❤

Mí rei me gusta mucho su majestad Elvis nunca morirá en mi corazón🤗🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️❤️
Elvis coisa linda da minha Vida
Song was written by Hoyt Axton. His wife wrote another Elvis hit, "Heartbreak Hotel." Axton, who was born in Oklahoma (not Arizona), was the man who bought home Gizmo in the movie "Gremlins." He wrote also "The Pusher," performed by Steppenwolf and featured in the movie "Easy Rider." Unfortunately, Axton at one time had a drug problem.
I thought Hoyt's mom wrote "Heartbreak Hotel."
It was his mother. I also read she’s the one who introduced Elvis to Colonel Parker
Love it!
Qu'elle classe merci Elvis
👑
This song is very special when song only by elvis as only he knew how to sing a song from the heart which he was good at picking a good song to sing
I will never understand why he dropped so ma ny good songs like this on ,later on...i would have loved to hear him do this one,and bridge over troubled water on the aloha special...with that sound,and that perfect condition he was is during that show
