Elvis, Had a charisma like no other. His devotion to His talent, inspirations to us all. He was one of a kind, like no other: Fame and fortune, sweet surrender, got Him in the long run. All I can tell you is this: " He walk the walk and talk the talk!!"
I remember a story that my grandfather told me. He was stationed out in Texas during his basic training for Korea, and he said that he saw Elvis playing at one of the bars he was at. He said that was a dream come true.
Elvis is the king of music with full of emotion that most musicians lack of through out history, and mostly, he was and still is the King of Heart!!! Music is a language of our soul, and he truly touched our hearts through his music and golden velvety voice! Elvis' birth had a very special mission; uplifting humanity, and he did just that! God is good to us as always through up and down of our lives!!!
I absolutely loved Elvis as an 80s kid .. I was the only 9 or 10 year old I knew who asked for Elvis movies for birthdays or Christmas! Just got an 8-pack of Elvis movies on iTunes and they're still as fun to watch as ever ... his music and acting will never get old.
One night shortly after he had passed away, I was thinking over everything I knew about Elvis. What had made him so famous? Well on the list is his fabulous voice. Then you have his marvelous talent. Somewhere on that list is his oh so sexy appearance. Before I even knew what sexy was or meant I knew he had it and I wanted it. All my life all I ever wanted was to meet him. I'd make up stories of how my aunt made an appointment with Col. Tom so I could meet Elvis. Stories are nice but all they are are lies. I was made fun of in school because I liked him. They'd tease me about my wanting to marry him. There is nothing in this world meanier than a teenager about another teenager. My first year in high school our French teacher wanted to know what all we did over the summer. I thought that would be the easiest thing in the world to write. I wrote how I was given an Elvis fan club and how hard it was running one. The teacher read my paper to the class. Then came the killer. She told the class that it was my paper. She embarrassed me so bad all I could think of was how I could make myself sick so I could go home. All it did was make me angry at the teacher. By the next day I was in just the write mood to go and talk to the Principal. I learned a lot that day. But I can tell you one thing that teacher will remember my name. So every time someone tried to embarrass me about being a fan of Elvis Presley. I'd just tell them how much fun it was to join my fan club we did this and that . I just turned it all around to a positive thing. The one and only time I saw Him THAT will be what I remember. We miss you Elvis.
I don't think he let anything go to his head. He already knew before the movies he couldn't ever go anywhere without a slew of bodyguards. His personal life was over with. After his comeback those who didn't know , they understood now. He was the most handsome man on the the planet then and forever. To famous can kill you. It did.
Elvis,is Always going to be Number 1,Has never changed.Still Number 1 after all the Years he's been gone.R I P Elvis,,Your still Loved and Missed Everyday.
Elvis Presley's death deprives our country of a part of itself. He was unique, irreplaceable. More than twenty years ago, he burst upon the scene with an impact that was unprecedented and will probably never be equaled. His music and his personality, fusing the styles of white country and Black rhythm and blues, permanently changed the face of American popular culture. His following was immense. And he was a symbol to people the world over of the vitality, rebelliousness and good humor of this country.
Hey Eddie, some 40+ some years later: Elvis: Still the One and Only King of Rock n' Roll, Truly Blessed Most Gifted and Charismatic Entertainer of the Century!!! Beloved and Missed so Dearly!!! FOREVER ELVIS!!!!
When Elvis walked in room all eyes went to Elvis you hear such negative thing's about him no one talks about his humanitarian thing's he did he changed style culture & has John Lennon said before Elvis there was nothing talking about rock & roll or rock as today he broke door's down for Black artist who wouldve never got heard so the guy had the Looks his voice was still great up til he passed it is a shame he never won a Grammy for his rock & roll music but did on his gospel album's Elvis crossed the music line's he touches old & young alike & had colonel Parker giving Elvis a chance at serious acting I believe he would've been up there with the Brando's James Dean Paul Newman & also if Parker had let Elvis tour over sea's he might have still been here ? Without a doubt the greatest singer & entertainer to ever live & one of the best looking man to ever grace the stage screen television or magazine's paper's & one of the most photographed man on the planet bar none ❤❤❤🎬🎸🙏🏿🎺
Yeah the colonel had him on a tight leash, shame he could of easily broke down barriers and records singing to different crowds.. He had more to give abroad
One I hope t;hat Elvis is paid his due for his rock & roll music the Grammy's while honoring him for his gospel music which Elvis I sure is so very proud of but Grammys Honor the man for his main contribution to rock & roll it's the fair thing to do !!!we lost way to soon at age 42 do you guy's understand in the 42 year's he was here on the earth the music he gave to us the tv show's movies concerts in the small 42 year's he was here or do you think his rock & rock music isn't deserving ???Do the right thing to the man that all singer's & group's he inspired !!!❤🙏👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Elvis Presley was so sexy. I love watching video of the early shows he did. His gorgeous voice, dance moves, & that face and hair! Charisma oozed out of every pore. What a man!
I had no idea Steve Martin was doing stand up when Elvis was still alive?! Wow! That’s amazing! I would have been star struck! It seems he was too. Lol

For sure, but Eddie makes a valid point. This is what fame could do. Nowadays we see it many times over. Elvis is the world's first Megastar..and did everything without a map..so yeah..this is what fame can do to you, but also you are right, there are less than a handful who will ever see the heights he reached.

So Murphy, that is the only thing according to you that is fascinating about Elvis? That says a lot. Elvis was multi talented, incomparable, handsome and so generous.
@@FuturologyTheMusical cause he was funny years ago I liked him he was new and edgy he was a big fan of Elvis then made some shitty piss takes of him bad taste😡so funny he’s turning into a bit of a caricature himself
@@seandarcy7651 An artist stays around long enough they will have down swings. When all is said and done Eddie Murphy will be looked at overall in a positive light. As one of the greats in his field. However no one pleases everyone ever. Ray Charles the musical genius didn't care for Elvis at all. Murphy loved Elvis. Was in awe of him and he's on tape saying so. I think Elvis was something very special too. Dogging Eddie Murphy based on that clip made no sense to me.
Man that Whitney was beautiful. That Elvis was just a phenomenon. Fame is one thing rich is one thing, being rich and famous are things but when you’re a king that looks like the prince of beautiful, with a voice like melting thick chocolate that’s altogether a totally different THING. lol there’s nothing else even close to it.
In another interview about meeting Elvis, Whiney goes on and on about him. It was a cute interview. Why this uploader stuck this junk in there, who knows. Also Walter Matthau had wonderful things to say about Elvis. Where this uploader pulled this little snippit from.....only he knows. He pulled up the worst of the worst. There's some very cool interviews on You Tube about people talking about Elvis, but this uploader prefers junk.
The onlyones who said negative things were jealous. Elvis was, and will always be, the best!! (Dutch fan, since i was 11. He died when i was 6. Wish i could have visited a concert. I was born to late. Ore....Elvis died to soon! ❤
Eddy fame did not destroy Elvis.Ginger Alden and Shirley Dieu have books discussing every day life with Elvis.He lived what his motto was ..something to love, something to look forward to etc.He was upbeat the day he died.Eddy, did you ever have any reason to be upset or sad, depressed? Do not make it sound abnormal to have stumbling blocks or frustrating moments.Raise your had if you have never experienced any of that.Gordon Stoker of the Imperials said Elvis enjoyed life and was a big cutup, always having fun. That never died His health concerned him but he kept on truckin. So Eddy, please live your perfect life.You are the only one who will.
You have completely missed his point and your knowledge of Elvis' circumstances near the end of his life are severely lacking. Also, Gordon Stoker was with the Jordanaires, not the Imperials. Do your research before posting stupid comments.

@@sandramaggard2962 His kind of music is deplorable, a rancid smelling aphrodisiac. It fosters almost totally negative and destructive reactions in young people.
Colonel Parker held him back in the sense that he kept him hidden away .. almost like a legendary myth behind the gates of Graceland ..When other stars of that time were doing Johnny Carson and duets with other artists he was kept from that which I think is sad .. because having the people that he had around him was not good for him ,they were yes men he needed someone to say no that's bad for you .. because if he did and this is just a theoretical point of view.. if he did have that person saying no to him he may have lived a longer life .. #RIPKing
Absolutely true....There is something magical about Elvis Presley watching a man who has lost himself find his way back home. He sang with the kind of power people no longer expect from rock 'n' roll singers.
@@raymonddaniel7787 Elvis killed Elvis , he ODd 4 times in '73 alone , there were signs many yrs before '77 but they were ignored , "Elvis is doing fine" written to a fan by Vernon just months before E died
so from what you are saying about Elvis being a decision maker about his career is all bullshit. I always thought Elvis was a marionette and the colonel pulled all the strings. Thanks for providing the truth about Elvis. He truly was a puppet.
I’m a huge fan of elvis Presley’s I love 💕 elviss music and flims too elvis will always be the king 👑 of rock and roll 🎸 my dream is to visit Graceland and communicate with elvis elvis will always be the rememberd bye me I always live elvis tcb ⚡️🕺7:13pm
You could really see how Kurt Russell was able to play Elvis. The facial mannerisms were all there & with help with hair & makeup, he did transform into the king. Kurt even lowered his vocal range to sound like him too. I thought he was exceptional in the movie.
*I remember when I saw Russell as 'Elvis' and how remarkably good he was at portraying him as a real person instead of a 'character'...even Lisa Marie said "Kurt was too good and sometimes hard for me to watch but i can tell you if Elvis were here to see Kurt portraying him he would approve"* *Considering how well-known Elvis was and remains...his personal life may well have been a 'mystery' even to himself at times* *"There's me...and then there's the 'Elvis' everyone knows which is also 'me' but sometimes I wish I had more time to myself as 'me' without the 'King' always around me that people expect all the time...it's a lot of work, being 'Elvis'*
Eddie is a true Elvis fan and appreciated his work and has a contemporary take reflecting Elvis career ! Don’t diss Eddie ! He and I are huge Elvis Presley fans
Exactly! Everybody here is so triggered by Eddie's comments. He SAID he was an Elvis fan. But he was also being honest when he shared his fascination with the destructive path fame can take through a person's soul.
*In other words...you can't stand it that a Black guy that's one of the biggest entertainers in the World who 'made his bones' in comedy at the remarkable age of 19 is "Not Worthy" of being asked 'what he thinks' because he's 'Black'* ( *You really can't stand the fact that Murphy could 'buy and sell' you a thousand time's over and not even know the money was gone* )
Walter Matthau was right. People said Elvis couldn’t act, but if you watch his early films, he had everything - acting ability, style, charisma and screen presence. King Creole was an excellent film. He did some other films before going off into romantic musical silliness that didn’t make a lot of money but showed that he could do the job. I thought his best boy meets girl movie was Change of Habit. But early in his career, he showed a lot of dramatic potential. Flaming Star, Wild In The Country, Loving You, Love Me Tender and Jailhouse Rock all demonstrated his acting ability. His fight scenes with very little experience as an actor were great. I could have easily seen him as Felix Leiter opposite Sean Connery’s James Bond. They could have been dynamite together. Elvis could play an intense role like Connery did in the early 007 films.
@@bwana-ma-coo-bah425 he never spoke bad publicly about anyone , he contributed to a LOT of charities, he brought happiness to millions of people thru his music. What's yr claim to fame you mush mouthed POS😤😤😤
@@gregamerson9172 that's right he never spoke publicly. you know why? because he was all no talk and no action. he bought happiness to millions of white people. because white America didn't want black music to be popular. My claim to fame is not on display here. I am not the one saying Elvis was god. People like you are. Now go cry on some body else's shoulder. Wanker!
FOR ABOUT 2O YEARS I READ ABOUT ELVIS, TRUES AND LIES. A WEEK A GO, I DID PUT THE PUZZLESS TOGETHER. AND WHEN I DID I FREAK OUT. ! I AM SO SORRY FOR ELVIS. HE HAS VISITED ME, MANY TIMES IN MY DREAMS, JUST LIKE THAT, WITH OUT ME THINKING OF HIM. I MEET ELVIS. BELIEVE ME HE IS AROUND. ! JUNE 3 . 2021 AZ, USA.
So...you think that it's disrespectful to say that fame ultimately destroyed someone? What about Judy Garland, Michael Jackson, and Whitney Houston? Can we say it about them, but not about St. Elvis?
He was a cautionary tale though he was poor so he got exploited and taken advantage of by his management and he was drugged too which hurt his health terribly. His Mothers death and his divorce (for being a notorious womanizer) really depressed him and he was overeating hence the heart attack at only 42 he was talented did not drink or smoke but still ... He's like Marilyn Monroe too idolized but mistreated not many close trusted friends either because of jealousy or greed or who knows why maybe controllers keeping them isolated too. I was a big fan of his music when I was younger I do pity what became of him.
It was easier to talk about him than to talk to him as he was surrounded by the Memphis mafia and the colonel Very few interviews and shut away in graceland
Fame may do this to you, yes. However, if you have the added pressure from a crappy manager who sees you as nothing more than a 'cash cow', you're in double trouble. His manager was Colonel Tom Parker.
I blame Parker for the death of ELVIS!!!! Parker pushed ELVIS too hard to make money for him. Parker didn’t care about ELVIS’S health, only the money. If Parker had taken better care of ELVIS, ELVIS might still be alive today!!!
Hmmm.... Yet another Elvis fan who blames The Colonel and does not hold Elvis, a grown man, responsible for anything. Plenty of Rock stars have fired their manager when the manager was no longer benefiting their career. Elvis could've done the same.
There is something magical about Elvis Presley watching a man who has lost himself find his way back home. He sang with the kind of power people no longer expect from rock 'n' roll singers.
Her mother was one of his backup singers, so Whitney grew up round him. Who knows why she was in the state she was in, but I imagine she thought she had to do something to talk about him
ELVIS 😇❤️ was A GIVER 🤑🏡🚙🍔🐕💎💍💰 WITH A VERY BIG HEART 💕 💜 TOWARDS SO MANY PEOPLE 😈🤩 OF VARIOUS ETHNICITY AND TOWARDS A LOT OF CHARITIES 🤑 ELVIS 😇💝 was MULTI-TALENTED 🩰🎸🎹✍️🏈 HE was A TRIPLE THREAT 🌈
Col Parker worked Elvis to the bones in his later years so he could pay off Parkers debts through gambling and this is why our poor Elvis passed away and not only was it through all the tablets he was taking and God saw Elvis struggling and he knew it was time for him to go and didn't want to watch him go through with so much pain RIP Elvis we all miss and love you
As a 12 year old kid! DAd it's Elvis look on the marquee! While driving through Las Vegas! CAN WE SEE HIM? Then pops said! I ain't paying that kind of money! And that was it!
Elvis was a humble person and just about everyone you talk to that met Elvis all have something good to say about him. He was about as close to perfection as anybody could get, he wasn't perfect but who is? RIP ELVIS WE STILL LOVE YOU. 2021
@@sandramaggard2962 And he was bascially always fun loving and happy.Just ask Ginger and Shirley Dieu and T G Shepherd and Gordon Stoker and Kathy Westmoreland etc etc
Very interesting! But I have to ask ... was your 'Elvis question' always on your list of interview questions? I've done hundreds of interviews with people ... and rarely ask the same question(s) with different interviewees ... especially one as 'pointed' as the Elvis question. Just curious. Thanks so much for posting.
Please, please know that these are yucky short interviews. Boring. I have seen each of these people talk about meeting Elvis and it's very interesting and fun to watch them. Someone chopped off the good parts and put this very boring video up here. Go seek out these people talking about Elvis. You will love it. I promise. Whitney just goes on and on about meeting him. I hate when people stick this nothing stuff up about Elvis that does not capture what these people really said. Leave here go look around.
ELVIS WILL STILL BE ADORDED ANOTHER 50 YRS FROM NOW, ELVIS ALWAYS IN OUR HEARTS ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

He was the greatest. What’s your favorite Elvis song?
So Murphy, that is the only thing according to you that is fascinating about Elvis? That says a lot.
Elvis was multi talented, incomparable, handsome and so generous.
There are other clips of Murphy talking about Elvis. He was a huge fan of Elvis through and through.
Yea and he started taking the piss out of him look how he’s films gone down the crapper
@@seandarcy7651 why the hate for Murphy?
@@FuturologyTheMusical cause he was funny years ago I liked him he was new and edgy he was a big fan of Elvis then made some shitty piss takes of him bad taste😡so funny he’s turning into a bit of a caricature himself
@@seandarcy7651 An artist stays around long enough they will have down swings. When all is said and done Eddie Murphy will be looked at overall in a positive light. As one of the greats in his field. However no one pleases everyone ever. Ray Charles the musical genius didn't care for Elvis at all. Murphy loved Elvis. Was in awe of him and he's on tape saying so. I think Elvis was something very special too. Dogging Eddie Murphy based on that clip made no sense to me.
Man that Whitney was beautiful. That Elvis was just a phenomenon. Fame is one thing rich is one thing, being rich and famous are things but when you’re a king that looks like the prince of beautiful, with a voice like melting thick chocolate that’s altogether a totally different THING. lol there’s nothing else even close to it.
Elvis is just fascinating…… end of!
Whitney so loaded. Eddie you know you can't protect anyone from themselves.
That was my impression of her here.
Did you ever go to his concert?
Now we know you can see it clear as day
Such a beautiful and talented woman too; so sad.
In another interview about meeting Elvis, Whiney goes on and on about him. It was a cute interview. Why this uploader stuck this junk in there, who knows. Also Walter Matthau had wonderful things to say about Elvis. Where this uploader pulled this little snippit from.....only he knows. He pulled up the worst of the worst. There's some very cool interviews on You Tube about people talking about Elvis, but this uploader prefers junk.
The onlyones who said negative things were jealous. Elvis was, and will always be, the best!!
(Dutch fan, since i was 11. He died when i was 6. Wish i could have visited a concert. I was born to late. Ore....Elvis died to soon! ❤
👋🏻😊🇺🇲
Whitney was a beautiful tragedy. Eddie Murphy nailed it.
Eddy fame did not destroy Elvis.Ginger Alden and Shirley Dieu have books discussing every day life with Elvis.He lived what his motto was ..something to love, something to look forward to etc.He was upbeat the day he died.Eddy, did you ever have any reason to be upset or sad, depressed? Do not make it sound abnormal to have stumbling blocks or frustrating moments.Raise your had if you have never experienced any of that.Gordon Stoker of the Imperials said Elvis enjoyed life and was a big cutup, always having fun. That never died
His health concerned him but he kept on truckin. So Eddy, please live your perfect life.You are the only one who will.
I don't think I know anyone who has a perfect life. We all have our trial's but with God all thing's are possible. Amen
You have completely missed his point and your knowledge of Elvis' circumstances near the end of his life are severely lacking.
Also, Gordon Stoker was with the Jordanaires, not the Imperials.
Do your research before posting stupid comments.
Elvis Presley's death deprives our country of a part of itself. He was unique, irreplaceable. More than twenty years ago, he burst upon the scene with an impact that was unprecedented and will probably never be equaled. His music and his personality, fusing the styles of white country and Black rhythm and blues, permanently changed the face of American popular culture. His following was immense. And he was a symbol to people the world over of the vitality, rebelliousness and good humor of this country.
@@raymonddaniel7787 Well said.....
@@sandramaggard2962 His kind of music is deplorable, a rancid smelling aphrodisiac. It fosters almost totally negative and destructive reactions in young people.
Whitney was so beautiful!!!!!!!!🦋🌸🌈💙♥️🌹
Colonel Parker held him back in the sense that he kept him hidden away .. almost like a legendary myth behind the gates of Graceland ..When other stars of that time were doing Johnny Carson and duets with other artists he was kept from that which I think is sad .. because having the people that he had around him was not good for him ,they were yes men he needed someone to say no that's bad for you .. because if he did and this is just a theoretical point of view.. if he did have that person saying no to him he may have lived a longer life .. #RIPKing
So true
Absolutely true....There is something magical about Elvis Presley watching a man who has lost himself find his way back home. He sang with the kind of power people no longer expect from rock 'n' roll singers.
@@raymonddaniel7787 Elvis killed Elvis , he ODd 4 times in '73 alone , there were signs many yrs before '77 but they were ignored , "Elvis is doing fine" written to a fan by Vernon just months before E died
so from what you are saying about Elvis being a decision maker about his career is all bullshit. I always thought Elvis was a marionette and the colonel pulled all the strings. Thanks for providing the truth about Elvis. He truly was a puppet.
His mistake was he never came to England or the rest of Europe as Colonel Parker was a illegal immigrant
I’m a huge fan of elvis Presley’s I love 💕 elviss music and flims too elvis will always be the king 👑 of rock and roll 🎸 my dream is to visit Graceland and communicate with elvis elvis will always be the rememberd bye me I always live elvis tcb ⚡️🕺7:13pm
You could really see how Kurt Russell was able to play Elvis. The facial mannerisms were all there & with help with hair & makeup, he did transform into the king. Kurt even lowered his vocal range to sound like him too. I thought he was exceptional in the movie.
I agree he did our boy respectful justice. 👏
Ditto
How cool is it that Walter Matthau remember his characters name from all those years ago
My God Whitney was GORGEOUS.. so sad both were lost so young
*I remember when I saw Russell as 'Elvis' and how remarkably good he was at portraying him as a real person instead of a 'character'...even Lisa Marie said "Kurt was too good and sometimes hard for me to watch but i can tell you if Elvis were here to see Kurt portraying him he would approve"*
*Considering how well-known Elvis was and remains...his personal life may well have been a 'mystery' even to himself at times*
*"There's me...and then there's the 'Elvis' everyone knows which is also 'me' but sometimes I wish I had more time to myself as 'me' without the 'King' always around me that people expect all the time...it's a lot of work, being 'Elvis'*
Elvis looked great on screen
Man, Whitney was such a natural beauty.
I still miss her.
Eddie is a true Elvis fan and appreciated his work and has a contemporary take reflecting Elvis career ! Don’t diss Eddie ! He and I are huge Elvis Presley fans
Exactly! Everybody here is so triggered by Eddie's comments. He SAID he was an Elvis fan. But he was also being honest when he shared his fascination with the destructive path fame can take through a person's soul.
We will have our opinions thank you the same as you.
Who cares
Why ask Eddie about Elvis? Disrespectful answer, as well.
*In other words...you can't stand it that a Black guy that's one of the biggest entertainers in the World who 'made his bones' in comedy at the remarkable age of 19 is "Not Worthy" of being asked 'what he thinks' because he's 'Black'*
( *You really can't stand the fact that Murphy could 'buy and sell' you a thousand time's over and not even know the money was gone* )
@@gerrynightingale9045 , you're delusional.
@@worldobserver3515 No, you are.
@@markandersen793 , what an intelligent answer. You're a real genius.
@@worldobserver3515 Thank you.
Walter Matthau was right. People said Elvis couldn’t act, but if you watch his early films, he had everything - acting ability, style, charisma and screen presence. King Creole was an excellent film. He did some other films before going off into romantic musical silliness that didn’t make a lot of money but showed that he could do the job. I thought his best boy meets girl movie was Change of Habit. But early in his career, he showed a lot of dramatic potential. Flaming Star, Wild In The Country, Loving You, Love Me Tender and Jailhouse Rock all demonstrated his acting ability. His fight scenes with very little experience as an actor were great. I could have easily seen him as Felix Leiter opposite Sean Connery’s James Bond. They could have been dynamite together. Elvis could play an intense role like Connery did in the early 007 films.
Thank you .
No Eddie, Elvis is FAMOUS for ALOT MORE THAN THAT!!!!
yep, he never wrote a song.
he was a puppet to the colonel.
he took drugs.
something children should aspire to.
@@bwana-ma-coo-bah425 he never spoke bad publicly about anyone , he contributed to a LOT of charities, he brought happiness to millions of people thru his music. What's yr claim to fame you mush mouthed POS😤😤😤
@@gregamerson9172 that's right he never spoke publicly.
you know why?
because he was all no talk and no action.
he bought happiness to millions of white people.
because white America didn't want black music to be popular.
My claim to fame is not on display here.
I am not the one saying Elvis was god.
People like you are.
Now go cry on some body else's shoulder.
Wanker!
How many songs have you written, hahahaha hahahaha
Thanks for the interviews !!!
Elvis-#1
Forever the King.
Kurt Russell was only a boy in Elvis's movie it Happened At The Worlds Fair and he also played Elvis
? What doesn't belong here? Eddie murphy seemed so out of place. Didn't know Elvis, never met Elvis and never worked with Elvis.
Same with Walken
BUT, he raises the best point.
FOR ABOUT 2O YEARS I READ ABOUT ELVIS, TRUES AND LIES.
A WEEK A GO, I DID PUT THE PUZZLESS TOGETHER.
AND WHEN I DID I FREAK OUT. ! I AM SO SORRY FOR ELVIS.
HE HAS VISITED ME, MANY TIMES IN MY DREAMS, JUST LIKE THAT,
WITH OUT ME THINKING OF HIM. I MEET ELVIS. BELIEVE ME HE IS AROUND. !
JUNE 3 . 2021 AZ, USA.
WE ALL HAVE SOULS ! NO MATTER WHAT THEY DO. THANK YOU, FOR RELPYING. 👑 🎼 🌻 🌟 🌛 🌈 🗽 🌹
Elvis the king
All these actors are great.
Wow, what Eddie said is true "This is what fame could do to you"
Elvis was The King. 👍👍
You could have edtited the Eddie Murphy part out. You know sometimes you just get tired of hearing stupid comments.
RD.. YOU ARE SO RIGHT...
I agree.Elvis is the greatest singer n celebrity n person of all time.Huge Fan 4 Life
Stupid is forever......
So...you think that it's disrespectful to say that fame ultimately destroyed someone? What about Judy Garland, Michael Jackson, and Whitney Houston? Can we say it about them, but not about St. Elvis?
@@bowtoyoursensei554 It was the drugs.
Elvis had the stuff and was well liked, and he liked people
Lovely
This is awesome, thank you xxx 💝
Elvis was destroyed by his manager, period
Exactly, not the fame as Eddie points out!
Elvis destroyed himself ! Not Parker !
It's more complicated than that .... Parker played a big part .
@@tonbruins9217 the reason Elvis thought he was doing good because he's been taken advantage by his humbleness which led to his death.
@@jeromem.evardome10_kr15 I don't agree...
i still love Elvis. Handsome, charismatic, talented, and tragic.
Elvis is fascinating for a heck of a lot more than how fame can destroy your life. Some very condescending or jealous comments; sour grapes, it seems.
He was a cautionary tale though he was poor so he got exploited and taken advantage of by his management and he was drugged too which hurt his health terribly. His Mothers death and his divorce (for being a notorious womanizer) really depressed him and he was overeating hence the heart attack at only 42 he was talented did not drink or smoke but still ... He's like Marilyn Monroe too idolized but mistreated not many close trusted friends either because of jealousy or greed or who knows why maybe controllers keeping them isolated too. I was a big fan of his music when I was younger I do pity what became of him.
Nice video. Loved it.
It was easier to talk about him than to talk to him as he was surrounded by the Memphis mafia and the colonel
Very few interviews and shut away in graceland
Holy moly, Whitney Houston doesn’t even know what planet she is on.
Your right, high as a kite
@Banned4life88 "DING, DING, DING, DING, LOOK OUT EVERYONE, IT'S THE GRAMMAR POLICE"
Fame may do this to you, yes. However, if you have the added pressure from a crappy manager who sees you as nothing more than a 'cash cow', you're in double trouble. His manager was Colonel Tom Parker.
I blame Parker for the death of ELVIS!!!! Parker pushed ELVIS too hard to make money for him. Parker didn’t care about ELVIS’S health, only the money. If Parker had taken better care of ELVIS, ELVIS might still be alive today!!!
Agreed
@@susanmay7807 Please Susan don't accused Parker of Elvis Presley death God knows the best...
Hmmm.... Yet another Elvis fan who blames The Colonel and does not hold Elvis, a grown man, responsible for anything. Plenty of Rock stars have fired their manager when the manager was no longer benefiting their career. Elvis could've done the same.
@@danc3693 Spoken like a true, ignorant person who has no clue of the south & how kids are raised there.
It's so hard watching Whitney Houston doing this interview.....
There is something magical about Elvis Presley watching a man who has lost himself find his way back home. He sang with the kind of power people no longer expect from rock 'n' roll singers.
Her mother was one of his backup singers, so Whitney grew up round him. Who knows why she was in the state she was in, but I imagine she thought she had to do something to talk about him
@@lisarice4402That's true Lisa... How are you doing,hope you are having a wonderful day and time with your family and Friends..
@RaymondDaniel - we are doing well, and thank goodness for that!! 😊
He was the greatest. What’s your favorite Elvis song?

Kurt Russell was the kid in "It Happened at the World's Fair" Elvis paid a quarter to kick him in the schin so he could see the pretty nurse again.
Whitney was not the sweet and nice girl you see in clips and interviews. She could easily be very nasty and hateful in public.
EDDIE WANTED TO BE ELVIS.
Didn't you ?
Well he couldn't be elvis even if he was trying didn't sound like much of a fan to me
ELVIS 😇❤️ was A GIVER 🤑🏡🚙🍔🐕💎💍💰 WITH A VERY BIG HEART 💕 💜 TOWARDS SO MANY PEOPLE 😈🤩 OF VARIOUS ETHNICITY AND TOWARDS A LOT OF CHARITIES 🤑 ELVIS 😇💝 was MULTI-TALENTED 🩰🎸🎹✍️🏈 HE was A TRIPLE THREAT 🌈
Whitney was so beautiful.
Col Parker worked Elvis to the bones in his later years so he could pay off Parkers debts through gambling and this is why our poor Elvis passed away and not only was it through all the tablets he was taking and God saw Elvis struggling and he knew it was time for him to go and didn't want to watch him go through with so much pain RIP Elvis we all miss and love you
❤❤
Don't think too hard Eddie.
He was the greatest. What’s your favorite Elvis song?
@@johnsnow5579 it's hard to choose just one song.
@@trudywolfe2795 I love tender feelings. So did you
Did you ever go to his concert?
Whitney is talking more about her mom than about Elvis. What's up with that?
She was a kid, and that’s what she remembers from her perspective. Sounds like she may never have met Elvis.
@@mattskustomkreations In another interview she mentioned she did meet him backstage after a concert but was too young to appreciate him.
As a 12 year old kid! DAd it's Elvis look on the marquee! While driving through Las Vegas! CAN WE SEE HIM? Then pops said! I ain't paying that kind of money! And that was it!
Cool!
Elvis was a humble person and just about everyone you talk to that met Elvis all have something good to say about him. He was about as close to perfection as anybody could get, he wasn't perfect but who is? RIP ELVIS WE STILL LOVE YOU. 2021
@@sandramaggard2962 And he was bascially always fun loving and happy.Just ask Ginger and Shirley Dieu and T G Shepherd and Gordon Stoker and Kathy Westmoreland etc etc

wow poor whitney, she looked great
LOL EDDIE, HE WAS SUPER COOL ELVIS.
They were not really talking about Elvis. Talking about themselves. But that's performers.
i love it all
Eddie even with elvis downs and out he was 3 or 4 heads above you . You will never reach the highness that man went to .
Very interesting! But I have to ask ... was your 'Elvis question' always on your list of interview questions? I've done hundreds of interviews with people ... and rarely ask the same question(s) with different interviewees ... especially one as 'pointed' as the Elvis question. Just curious. Thanks so much for posting.
Hi Stephen, I only asked the Elvis question a few times as I read beforehand that those actors had some history with the entertainer.
Eddie loved Elvis,he said nothing wrong here.
Please, please know that these are yucky short interviews. Boring. I have seen each of these people talk about meeting Elvis and it's very interesting and fun to watch them. Someone chopped off the good parts and put this very boring video up here. Go seek out these people talking about Elvis. You will love it. I promise. Whitney just goes on and on about meeting him. I hate when people stick this nothing stuff up about Elvis that does not capture what these people really said. Leave here go look around.
