BEN , SINGING a BEST CLASSIC. ELVIS SONG!!!
I saw Ben in Bournmouth , he was great. T.C.B
Very good and authentic work!
He brings such a joy to the people
and truely loves Elvis. I think the is the best imitator of him
👍👍👍 Christian and Maryse ( Belgium ). Happy new year 2025 !!!
This is one if my favourite song by him. I was fortunate to see him live a few months before he passed. This is perhaps one of the closest rendition to him ever. Many have the voice and moves but lack the pure passion. This performer has that passion
Wow. That side profile is literally Elvis. Like the spitting double of him. Damn! 🥺
Great❤
Amazing.
I was lucky enough to see him recently in Scunthorpe Baths Hall 🥰 he is absolutely fantastic.
Everything about him is 100% Elvis.
No tribute artist will ever compare to Ben.
I'm smitten 🤩😍
I find Ben sounds a lot like Elvis, and that my friends is not easy to do. Their was only one Elvis, but Ben you are the best tribute artist I have seen. Well done my brother. TCB
Wow how great was that, have seen Ben many times over the years. All ways puts on a great show. ❤
i love your videos
Thank you x
The most difficult Elvis song to perform by far!
Great job!!
Jack ~'()'~
HE LOOKS LIKE ELVIS and sings every song perfect , I love this guys smile,
Magic....Ben Portsmouth...I love you
Very impressive. Possibly the hardest song to do convincingly and he pretty much nails it. Wow.
Listen to Chris Conner version
@@58eltoro horrible
The passion and soul he put into this performance gave me shivers. Elvis would be proud!
Awesome'
Just awsome' ' '
Made me cry wow
Absolutely breathtakingly awesome!!!?
CAN'T BELIVE IT TOOK ME SO LONG TO FIND BEN. HE HAS EVERYTHING DOWN PAT. AWESOME
Ben Portsmouth is amazing. The best Elvis Tribute Artist ever! This is one of my first recordings of him...have done so many more since xx
He's Good this Ben Portsmouth. Just Outstanding.
I totally agree. I have been flying to different countries just to see Ben since 2014. Covid has put a stop to that at the moment. I am going to Ireland in April 2022 to see Ben. Four shows
Amazing 👑
Somebody's been watching a LOT of Elvis videos, Ben has it all down pat.
Wow, he sounds brilliant! What a song!
Man, I can't believe my eyes and ears. Everything he does its on point. The scary fact about him. Is that It Comes Natural To Him!
Hi there, Mirko Amicizia! Ditto!
Watch Chris Connor I’m not trying to hate but he’s way better than him
🤣no he sounds nothing like Elvis
@@allanm2293 Chris Conner didn't look out sound like Elvis. Maybe watch Elvis a little more and you see Ben is about as good as it gets.
I like Ben and eerily when you see Ben from the side he looks a bit like Elvis, no-one will ever come close to Elvis,his look and his voice as he was a unique guy Elvis was.
There are loads of Elvis tribute artists and I think it's okay because they keeping Elvis's memory alive, they all love Elvis a lot. And plenty of people go and see them, I've seen a couple of them and to me they have to be really good.
And if ya go in and ya like wanting to see someone who is exactly like him but there can't be ever !!!!
I get so tired of some people that dislike and perhaps, only focusing on the negatives rather the positives. Of someone or something. Because the positives far outweigh the negatives any way ! . Some people are criminals from Hell ! I tell yeah I know right hahaha !... I tell ya what man I'm happy with Ben Portsmouth ! . As he fully and completely captures Elvis Presley ! to a point of his personality from A to Z ! ...
Wow. He’s good. He’s so much like him. Unbelievable. You’d never think it wasn’t Elvis.
Brilliant so good
The best best performance of this song, by a mile of ANY ETA . my opinion!!
YES...I AGREE...never witnessed better...
it is very good but no one will ever
sing it with the emotion that
The real Elvis sang it because no body on the planet sings like him but saying that Ben portsmouth is the only Elvis impersonator that i would ever pay money to see
Saw Ben live. Incredible performer. By far the best ETA.
great voice love him he sings with so much heart and soul 10 0ut of 10 for this one Brilliant
He just becomes Elvis.............we are going to see him in March...............
excellent
Who needs Radio or TV when you have this to watch 😍😍😍😍 He's so good been enjoying his videos❣❣ Thanks for sharing 😁
So pleased to hear that you are enjoying my videos of Ben..can't wait to go see him again, once this pandemic is over
@@MegaNaiomi Yes he's really good would love to see him come to US Fredericksburg VA We have Shawn Klush come alot but would luv to see Ben just something about his charisma and he's such a Happy and people person jokes are spot on like Elvis was...Thanks Again for sharing 😁😁
unfortunately I can't see anywhere that Ben is scheduled to perform in America in the near future. I love watching and listening to him. I would think he would be in the USA a lot more since this is Elvis Presley Land. I live in Nashville, TN not far from Memphis and would love for him to return to this area soon!!!!
Ben has got some schedules show for the USA....He just did the Elvis Birthday cruise in January, leaving from Florida
Sad to have missed him dern man dern it...my loss indeed!
Interpretazione magistrale
❤ 🎶 "Absolutely 💘 Fabulous ; Beloved Elvis Presley 💘 Would Be Just Soo.. Proud of You. Thanks for Sharing 💃 and Enjoy A Delightful Evening.. ". 🎶 ❤
Ben Portsmouth is one of the best if not the best Elvis Presley tribute artist I have ever seen without a doubt and I seen plenty. What most people don't understand is the work that goes into something like this not just for Ben but for all professional tribute artists. Watching hours and hours of video over and over trying to imitate every move every sound and every facial expression of your idol and then getting the costumes just right then rehearsal after rehearsal it's all down to fine art being dedicated.
No he is not!
It's kind of funny because I just can't get past thinking about how much time and effort goes into this type of work. Even down to the captain behaving the same as Elvis's did! I started imitating Elvis when I was 2 years old in the sixties and was ridiculed by my oldest sister who became a Jehovah's Witness. The only way I was not shy is when I was on stage performing Elvis in talent shows. It was kind of funny because I didn't speak a word of English aside from the Elvis songs! I have to say I am super impressed with the female drummer in this band.
Just looked Chris Connor up & to tell you the truth he's not a patch on Ben Portsmouth.
Why look up someone who does not rate better then Ben Portsmouth. Obviously you think so too otherwise you would not be here on this channel
+Tamarama Sydney learn how to spell before throwing silly tantrums
Super ❤👏👏👏👏👏💐💐💐
One of my best memories were the times I saw Ben perform along with my sister.
That's interesting. I had no idea Ben sang with someone else. Not once has he mentioned it. What is her name x
Wow! Ben sounds so awesome... I can close my eyes and think that it is Elvis. Keep up the good spirit man..... and If I Can Dream......
Yep, this guy is by far the best impersonator of Elvis. Hands-down. I'd love to see some young Elvis performances, but maybe I just haven't found them yet.
holy shit - the ultimate Elvis song sang 100% while replicating the king himself
Excellent job!!!
OMG That little cheeky look at the beginning was so dang cute!
I LOVE everything Ben does!!!!
King of the Elvises
Ben ! has that sultry sensuality going on along with his ability to charm and romance his audience just like Elvis ! did...
He even speaks like Elvis some what
Hey is very good an nice looking ,
just saw THE LAST HOURS OF ELVIS PRESLEY and i couldn't believe how much the guy playing elvis looked like him...so i googled him and come across this yt page... I've never heard of him...but wow... he blew my socks off !!! ❤🤗
Ben Portsmouth is undoubtly the very besy Elvis Tribute Artist out there. He has the complete Elvis package , and I first saw Ben in 2012.......and have been following his carreer since, and will continue to do so. And thank you x
Hi there, Mega Naiomiz! i couldn't agree with you more indeed! Ditto!
Pretty good I must say...my favorite song from Elvis. This guy is really 👍
Well done Ben! Fantastic job dear Sir.
Absolutely incredible! Well done, sir ...
Elvis was such a wonderful entertainer, he brought so much happiness to so many people through his music all his life, even on the night he died he was in preparation to go on the road again to entertain his fans, they loved him and he loved them. That alone says a lot about the man Elvis was. I was fortunate enough to see Mr. Portsmouth preform last weekend in GA in the USA, like Elvis he gives one hundred and fifty percent to his audience. He was even kind enough to join his fans at a small little Pizza place after the show and sing a beautiful song for everyone. That too says a lot about him. So often we hear people who really didn't know Elvis or what he was about say, all he did was screw women and get stoned, but as Ben proves over and over on stage with his magnificent renditions of the beautiful songs that Elvis did, he was so much more then that. He sang this song on his sixty eight special, a new song, sung by a Southern born and raised man about changing the world and equality and part of the reason he chose the song was to use his fame to spread the message, that was a time period when the civil rights movement was going on in America, Elvis broke Colonel Parkers strict rule about not doing any song that was political or potentially controversial. This special was his come back, he risked his whole career by singing that song. Think about that. Now we have this hunk in his image carrying on the message. Go Ben, we love you, see you in Memphis. Hopefully not too tired or crabby. :)
Hi Debra. Thank you so much for your response to my video of Ben, singing Elvis' best message song ever. I totally agree with all that you have said about Elvis and our wonderful Ben. The 68 Come Back Special that Elvis did was the best show he ever did. If I can Dream was written purposely for that show for Elvis to sing at the end of his show. I was lucky enough to see Ben not once but twice and yes, he is a wonderful man and we are so lucky to have Ben who gets on stage to bring Elvis "alive". I see he had a great show in Georgia.......Ben gives 100% plus when he performs. Lucky you to be going to Memphis...I have to wait for Ben to come back to our shores next year. Have fun in Memphis
Well said.:) Debra
Debra Hall
I didn't know that about the song...a magnificent song..and Ben knocks it out the park.
That is not real Elvis never say that and I don't trust all of this and Elvis Presley is real or this comment is bullshit and no one can't beat real Elvis Presley and he is the king the one only I have and Ben can't do anything about love himself or treat the real king and Ben so much like stealing some how much much like Elvis and that is actually obsessed with Elvis Presley even Shawn klush that so jealous of him and people so crush on Shawn and who is the lying one never trust himself as Elvis and that really embarrassed of Elvis Presley and so disgusting man pertray Elvis in the movie who die in the bathroom with a lot of drugs.
SEU SORRISO É ENCANTADOR
This guy is AMAZING
Great to see someone actually putting passion into it, well I suppose he wouldn't be a good Elvis impersonator if he didn't but still, it's great to see
Ben emulates Elvis to perfection...emotions and passion and all xx
Love This man he is so good. He has a true gift. God Bless You.
どんな事をしても!絵になる人とで!チャーミング👑Elvis👑可愛いらしい人柄!そして歌えば超最高!素敵💓♡💓素敵🎸🎹🎺🥁どの角度から見ても!何とも言えない愛らしい!🇺🇸🇯🇵🇺🇸🎼🎶
What a great song...Beautiful voice
You can't get much better than, this unless you're Elvis himself.
I'LL GIVE THAT < AN AMEN > !!!!!!!!
WOW! What a surprise! and hearing you sing one of my favorite songs. I just saw you perform on David Letterman's show (2/8/13), your voice keeps getting better all the time, I'm not into tribute artists but YOU WON ME OVER. Congratulations! I don't think you'll be competing anymore.... you're the best. Thank you!
That cheeky look he gave back to the audience, love it lol
He is so good….the illusion of ELVIS is almost faultless…a brilliant performer.
Damn he has Elvis Presley mannnerisms , spooky the voice and look is spot on ! Even moves like Elvis did !
Not a patch on Ben
People can copy the clothes/moves/mannerisms etc,but the voice always let's them down in the end.
@@robbell6148 Jake Rowley though
although i think Elvis would of kept his hair nice and neat
@Benjamin Sorry...Connor does not have the full vocal range, Ben does !
Elvis Resurrected,he is Good!

He's the best ever ETA ever ever
Seen him in Glasgow Feb 16, AWESOME!
top drawer stuff
I know Ben Portsmouth I have seen him before on UA-cam but now he is in Skegness
simply the best out there.
+Tamarama Sydney Not a patch on Ben Portsmouth
I love you Elvis 🙌
This man must have loved Elvis to his every moves, to his voice and to his personality, that's why his impersonation become almost like the star himself. 👍
😊ele teve a sorte de nascer com mesmo timbre de voz de elvis ate quando ele fala e igual
Thanks for sharing these amazing videos my friend! You can tell Ben really enjoys entertaining the audience and you can see that he is a nice and uncomplicated man. The best part is that you can tell he isn't trying to imitate Elvis... it almost feels he channels Elvis! Whatever it is that he does you know it is genuine, it is Elvis... it is Ben... ;) Cheers from Rio, Brazil!
Seeing you next year again in Nottingham. Can't wait
Fantastic , he looks like elvis the voice is great just like elvis , great job ben
omg ben Portsmouth iz so amazing looks nd sounds so much like the king love himxx
Amazing!
pretty darn good
those eyes will get you everytime
Love you Ben!
Incredible
Hi there, Lance Christopher! Ditto!
That's incredible
Elvis👑!ユーモア素敵!熱唱の歌❤❤❤KING有難う🇺🇸🇯🇵🇺🇸🎼🎶🎸
Nice one from Belgium
that my favorite song it has a message that we all need today in a world with so much crime and hate and racist
Hi there, Charlie Rogers Music! Ditto!
So true!
Great Elvis impersonator . I am pictured here with Daren Lee who is another great Elvis act.
I love this song so much and I really wish Ben would come to Oklahoma City. He is the best ETA.
Just seems if he went to Texas this month he should have come on up. Maybe he will.
Kary Ronk Hi ya Kary Ronk. Ben only goes where the promoters have invited him to go. They are the ones who finance most of his shows
Despite the trolling by a certain Diane (something), Ben Portsmouth is without doubt the best EP tribute out there. While it's true there are act out there that are more of a Pantomime about EP and just make fun and light of the man (I've made comment on this elsewhere), Ben is a respectful incredible performer and fan. It is astounding how good this man is. It annoys me how many people say they are fans and yet they stalk these videos just to troll and push peoples buttons - they are cowards and assholes, hiding behind a keyboard. MegaNaiomi... good job mate!
You are right!! He is not chris connor and thank God for that. Ben Portsmouth is far superior to him and it shows....Ben has fans flying from all over the world to go see him, can Chris boast such a following. I think not!! And anothe thing. Unlike you, I do not bother you tubing other artists that I am not fond of. And why would I need to when Ben Portsmouth is the best of the best!! I rest my case. Thank you for your time and opinion
That's your opinion
Tamarama Sydney......Do you realise you are the only one saying that!!
I think Doug church is the best .
Totally agree. I saw him in Wellington on this tour. He truly is amazing.
He is the best.
Kudos to the female drummer!!! I had always wanted to play the drums myself so it's great to see a woman drummer for a change!! She's fabulous and can really play them!
Yes she is fabulous. Even Ben liked her.....her name is Lauren Ellis and is a Kiwi, like me
MegaNaimoi With all due respect and I truly beg your pardon but not to sound so ignorant :D what is a Kiwi other than the fruit? :D :D lol!! Great to know Ben likes her too guess that's why he wanted her to play for him! Don't blame him. Break those stereotypical barriers down and get the best gal/girl and in this case gal for the part! Ben is truly the best in all areas! Just love him!!!
Hi EmeraldJade66.....Oh I don't think you are ignorant at all. Kiwi is an affectionate name that we get called if you are from New Zealand. That is also where the Kiwi fruit comes from hence it's name
Hello MegaNaiomi :) Please forgive the long delay ... just "life" :) Thank you so much for letting me know what Kiwi meant in the term it was used. Of course I know what the little kiwi fruit it :D lol! But this is the first I know about it being an affectionate name for New Zealanders :) Wow! So sweet and very cute!! I like it much!! And I LOOOOOVE N.Z.!!! Such a beautiful country it is! Love the people, culture, land itself and well I just love it! :) Great pop singers from there too with a little reggae mixed. I can't remember if Awa and Anuhea is from there ... maybe they are from another South Seas island/country? Anyhow, you are from a beautiful country and you my friend I can tell are really beautiful too! :) Love that you are a kindred spirit who shares the love of Elvis as well. God Bless Always! :)
♥
beautiful song
Hi there, Sue Streets! Ditto!
You blow my mind Ben your truly pure Perfection it just WOW GORGEOUS
Just WOW!!!!
Ainda bem que tem pessoas seguindo os passos do Elvis !!!
Esse cara lembra muito o Elviis, e canta muito parecido, está de parabéns.
