I met Elvis when we were both in US Army in Germany. Then one more time in Lou. KY after we both were out of military, i was then head of Court system in Lou. KY, And he had concert at Freedom Hall at KY Fairgrounds. He brought me 10 tickets for my young Dau. & her friends & my wife.
In Friedberg you was in Germany?
Magnifique monsieur. Merci pour ce témoignage. ❤👍🧸🇨🇵🇨🇵🌹✝️🙏
No way! That is so cool!
What was he like in the Army?
💖
Elvis was a gift to his parents and the world. It is a few hours from 2024 here in Texas and Elvis is still remembered in a big way by us.
He is still remembered worldwide , also by me lost in my village here in France what a man what a singer. Bonsoir à vous de la Charente Maritime .🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷
@@hectorbrown656 …Je suis totalement d’accord, c’était un Idole, un géant, un homme d’un sex appeal inimaginable et aussi un homme avec ses défauts etc…sa musique ne sera pas oubliée facilement. Une Bonne nuit de Floride 🇺🇸🇮🇹
he was great
I Will Never Forget Elvis....There Will Never Be Anyone Like Him. Such a Senseless Loss. I remember where I Was when I heard we Lost Him. I Love You, Elvis! REST IN PEACE...
Um. Plenty of celebs with a pretty face and a propensity for grooming. Seems fairly common place.
I remember the day he died, I was 7 years old.
I remember the day he died, I was 7 years old.
Elvis, may you be dancing with the angels!
And singing
Yes
oh
he is
There's a song on UA-cam call Never let me go for Elvis Presley fans artist Chuck Dale.❤❤❤
I knew nurses that had taken care of him. No one had a bad thing to say about him. What Elvis really needed was friends that didn’t want anything . He needed a good friend that would be honest with him. God bless Elvis he was used by a lot of bad people these in the video included.
And a woman who really loved him for him and not being a celebrity. He just needed people who really loved him. Too bad his mom passed young also. So so sad. ♥️♥️
I blame his dad to cc cause when he passed out on the floor and they poured ice on him and he looks at his dad and he told the Dr to give him whatever he needed to do to get him on that stage Us fans could just look at him and he wouldn't have to say a word God made him special and he touched everybody in the world Hes singing with God now ❤
@@megsfidgets2359 That was from the movie, it didn't happen in real life. Vernon was worried to death about Elvis' drug use but Elvis was in charge because he was making the money and no one could get through to Elvis about his drug use.
What utter nonsense, it’s up to an individual themselves to realize they have a problem, there’s an old saying, you can’t help the helpless
@@jimfry2748 That's what I said, no one could get through to Elvis about his drug use. You're not going to get through to the fans who want to make him a perpetual victim who had no ability to help himself. What difference does it make now? He's been dead and gone going on 47 years now so he's the one who paid the price for his mistakes and stubbornness.
I put the most blame on Tom Parker. Although Elvis was his own person, he was a shy introvert, and allowed Parker to control him. Parker knew this, and pounced like a tiger on Elvis. I was a fan at age 8, and cried myself to sleep the night Elvis died...I was only 9.
Oh I agree he was only after the money.I remember that day the news was on and it came across the screen that Elvis died and that moment I just cried I couldn't believe it.
Interesting, John....
I agree! He was a degenerate gambler!
Elvis was not so stupid
I was only 9 too
He died on my youngest sisters 3rd birthday.I was born in 68.Rest in peace Elvis Presley.
Just watched this for the first time. Elvis was taken advantage of and was pressured to perform to support so many when he was tired and needed help. An intervention. Instead he is in his room deathly ill while everyone is downstairs gambling away his money. 😢 so sad. Going to the restroom at 6am and someone not finding him until after 2pm? He needed love.
That was a beautiful tri ute to Elvis! Thank u.Being in and out of jail myself I loved Jailhouse Rock!
I was born the day after Elvis Died that was 42 years ago and for people to still talk about him shows you how much he had an effect on the world.
@christopherdalle8201
Well said and a gracious, well-deserved tribute.
Classy.
What's really sad is Lisa Marie gone too soon also..💔
The King 👑
I was so in Love with Elvis.
My mom surprised me in ‘77 and took me to see him in concert. I was only 11. He died just a few months later. She took me to Graceland the following summer.
Thanks mom 😘
RIP King Elvis ✌️☮️ 💙😢
Was that concert in Terre haute?
Nope. Oklahoma City.
Why, you go see him on that same tour?
AJ P, Wow great story... you were lucky, and yes thanks to your mom ; )
Godi wished ihad
Hall of Fame Star in evey Category of Music !! Gospel , Country , RockaBilly ,Rhythm n Blues ,Jazz ,Rock n Roll and happy endings in all of his Movies !
A small amount of multi millionaires in the late 50s and Elvis Aron Presley with 4 movies is one of them! Before leaving to the Army in 1958 -60 Sargent Elvis Aron Presley had already 25 top chart Hits recorded that became both Gold and Platinum !
To me he is and will be forever the undisputed King of Music ! He ended his Wonderful Career with 250+ Recorded Songs ! Only one as a solo singer followed by Frank Sinatra ! Both Legendary Performers in America and Loved by the Whole World !
Look in UA-cam for Pastor Bob Joyce of the House of Faith Church ! You will see some Elvis in my Pastor Bob Joyce !😊😂😅😮❤
These guys really loved him...I had tears watching.....genuinely heartfelt feelings for the man, and Elvis really cared for them deeply!!! Elvis was a generous man indeed!!!!
I don’t think some really loved him. We don’t know both sides. Idk why she didn’t call ambulance first but you know he wanted to get rid of his morphia friends. He wanted to and did. Some got mad.
Things change
@@stevenprater7225 they did NOT love him...they ALL grifted the Dollars out of him! Like the industry itself .. 👿...
They didn't love him enough to do an intervention. Most of them were just "hangers on" and didn't want to get off the gravy train.
@@defenestrate4957 amen!!!
Elvis was beautiful inside and out! Look how devastated everyone was! His fans will never be the same either! Thank you for making this film! God Bless!
How were the times meeting with him? Anything you could tell us about him and the times that you met him? I'm Very interested. That is amazing that you got to meet him nit only once but twice!
@@heatherbillpotter1266 THAT ❤️👑😀😎🔥 SO SOMETHING
And here I sit crying like a baby. I was born in 57. Elvis was a part of me. In some ways I guess he still is! May he evermore rest in peace!
I am very grateful to have been the flight attendant that brought Elvis and his entourage from Kauai to Honolulu on the last flight of the day. I was also invited to witness his last concert in Honolulu, which was the most memorable concert in my experience,
to be up front in the loge of the arena. His voice, movements, sweat, and soul were beyond norm, truly magical & heart touching, in a class all of his own! I feel so blessed to have witnessed, indeed, the greatest performer in history! Thank you, Elvis! You have touched many hearts! I feel so blessed to have served you, for a brief moment in your life. Forever Grateful! Thankyou Thankyou!
cherilyn moloney wow you are so lucky to meet Elvis and go to a concert I was not born yet i was born in 2006 but I always loved his music and wished that I could go to a concert but i cant
cherilyn moloney You are one lucky lady, Cherilyn! 👍 😀
42 years later I still remember exactly where I was and what I was doing when my boss walked in and said Elvis just died. I said, stop screwing around that's not funny. Moments later I heard women crying in another room. I had tickets in my pocket to attend his next scheduled performance. Little did I know those tickets purchased just 6 hours before would be so treasured.
I'm with you all the way.
Elvis was the best ever singer. No one will ever match his charisma. He was one in a million and I’m so grateful to have seen and hugged him. He gave me a scarf that I still have. Most kind and gentle man!
Best ever singer in your opinion.So many others are better in my opinion.
@@Michael-yd5ry your rude….just my opinion
I agree with you ..he was the best.
@@Michael-yd5ry 😆
😅
Elvis should have been protected at all cost.
Instead, he was used and abused. God rest his soul. There never has been, and never will be another like him.
My grandmother was born in the year 1901 when she was 70 years old she got to see Elvis in concert in Las Vegas. I was so jealous as her granddaughter that I was unable to see him he will be missed and never forgotten.❤
Elvis was and still is the greatest Star-Celebrity that ever lived in my lifetime. He was loved by everyone males and females alike. I still miss him.
Elvis was a healer for me and others at that time. When Elvis first came out we did not know what to think of him was he black was he white no matter he had the voice and there will never again be the time of Elvis for us who lived in this time zone.
@@pamphlet3560 you weren’t alive so shut up.
Parker was very angry to see elvis in the state of junk i understand it
My beloved daddy, also adored Elvis! He was devastated when he died!😥
@Sandra... as I was preparing to respond to you a message popped up from you tube warning us to be ' nice' in responding so apparently they recognize, as do I and doubtless countless others that I must totally disagree with your opinion of that overweight drug addict. He needs to be removed from the pedestal that he was put on. He doesn't deserve the accolades. That's as nice as I can get on this subject.
After reading a couple of books, I always felt he had left such a lonely life, but hearing these men talk, I know he was loved. ❤️❤️❤️
He was a gift from heaven
He Most Definitely Was and May He Reign Peacefully In Heaven Forever, AMEN. 🎗✨✨♥♥
He was surrounded by many friends and family who loved him.
Sad Elvis married Pricilla who is trying to ruin his name! We don't need to hear about drugs etc., from her. How much money is she getting from these interviews? He was a good son and loved his mother! ❤❤❤
Everyone, please as a tribute to Elvis Presley, honor God, our Maker, in our bodies. He owns us all.
Elvis was and still is the most handsome and elegant gentleman. His songs still bring tears in my eyes. Now, he has eternal peace and happiness of his life. God bless him. Love you Elvis.❤.
Amen x
Bless someone that's dead?
@@TheRoyalNewspaper He is still living in my heart and soul.
~ rest in paradise ~ 😔 🕯
Would love to have you study the definition of a gentleman.
There will never be another singer who can sing like Elvis. I was so blessed to see him in person the year before he died.
AI may one day sing better
There will never be another Elvis, however, check out this band.
Bouke and the Elvis Matters Band
This man studied Elvis' music and moves. He's amazing.
@@user-vy4xx2qp3d eye roll
It is too bad it ended the way it did. Elvis is a legend, maybe the greatest ever.
greatest ever...nahh he stole other people music
Elvis had it all looks built hair smile and he sure could sing.And he loved his Mom
I am 81 and Elvis played such a great part in my early life. I can recall the excitement of listening to a new record release or a new film and I knew every word of all the lyrics. He had it all from the good looks, the charisma and that amazing voice. I lived in the UK at the time and always wished that I could have attended one of his concerts but it was never to be.
To my mind he was the King and always will be and nobody has, or will ever come close to lifting that crown. Thank you for saving this amazing tribute online.
I loved him I'm 79 ...
😅😂
I totally agree with you I’m 71 and always loved Elvis ❤️

He was just a singer.
Elvis was the whole package a wonderful kind gentlemen to walk this earth but he was a shy man were people walked all over him. He just wanted friends as he was so lonely. Bless Elvis. There will never be another Elvis never. Love u Elvis.
My mum loved Elvis and she died suddenly last week, I'm finding myself going to Elvis for comfort. I hope she's meeting him right about now. x
she did.
So sorry to hear of your sad loss, bless you and I hope your mum R I P. x

sounds great :)))))))))))). ( this is you right? bagelfish.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/wow-nerd-south-park-580.jpg don't worry you'll get out of your parents basement... soemday ;) enjoy the cheese out of your belly button for dinner)
Thank you, that is very sweet.I also like his song 'If we never meet again'. His music is very poignant in my life because of my mum. I'm sorry for your loss also x. Did you know that Keough is the surname of Elvis's grandchildren Riley and Bejamin! haha :)
Ericochico youre too disrespective to someone who is dead
I was driving by Graceland when the ambulance came for Elvis. I was in Memphis when the funeral happened. Never forget the feeling of sadness everywhere .
It's heartwarming to read comments that aren't so focused on HOW he died and more comments about the kind, generous, truly caring, sensitive, musical genius he was. Did ya'll see the doc on how he put together his first show in Vegas? It's on Netflix and shows the genius he had in him. Watching him put the music, orchestra, and backup singers together was amazing! It was the first time i realized how truly talented he c was.
Not sure why I watched this but glad I did. Happy he had so many people around him that loved him…truly.
I don't think the people especially close by and around him really loved him truly..
His death still bring me too tears. RIP Elvis
I love and miss Elvis. He was thoughtful. Why are they saying he was a pedophile. Did they go with him. Let him rest in peace. His smile, teeth, body was exquisite. 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤❤
The King lives, because legends never die!
From rome italy ..i own an elvis tie ..
So extreamly sad ,if it wasn't for elvis we wouldn't have such diverse music we have today ...elvis changed this for us all .❤
I loved Elvis since I was a child and he was the the true King of Rock and Roll ❤
❤😊Amen! Absolutely 💯
He was lightening. People never truly appreciate a gift until it’s gone. 😶
He was just a singer.
@user-ho7sc6fd5z ...Elvis Aaron Presley never said that he was the king of rock & roll, PERIOD!!!
Elvis is the number one singer world wide and is missed very much and Loved by the world JAMG
His hairdresser seemed the most sincere about helping Elvis.
I thought he seems the least sincere.... seemed very fake to me......
Ah yes, Elvis's "hairdresser/spiritual advisor". To me, he seemed like he asked a b-grade writer to write him some dramatic lines so he could extend his five minutes of fame by a couple seconds.
I too think Elvis' hairdresser was a true friend to him.
Nobody on the payroll is human.
I have no idea if Larry was sincere, but he was definitely misguided. Elvis was a professed Christian. More than one time he told his audiences that "I'm not the King. There is only one King, and that's Jesus Christ." Larry encouraged him to dabble in false religions. That is NOT the way for any Christian to find inner peace. The Holy Spirit won't allow it. As "spiritual guide," he should have encouraged Elvis to trust in his Christian beliefs and gain strength from them. Elvis did still read his Bible and remained a Christian, but he did too much dabbling for his own good, and Larry encouraged that.
My mom had a dream about Elvis. He was still performing for people in heaven including my son who passed away from SIDS.
Your MAMA was crazy.
I am so sorry for your loss for your baby boy. I am so sorry. That's a beautiful dream.
@@SuperRocky59 and you are a JERK!!!
ok
Sorry for your loss
I'm 70 years old and I was in love with Elvis 😮I couldn't believe How Wonderful he was and Always Will be 💯👊the only thing that I couldn't believe is how That no Good person who was in charge of Him took Advantage of every part of Elvis and let him take anything that kept him going right up to where the drug's took him Over 😢😢 he's NOW Singing to the Most important One's of ALL,The Angels 😇💯👊❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏
What an amazing tribute to Elvis by his friends! I have watched many docus about Elvis’s life, but this one was special for some reason. The hairdresser friend spoke from his soul and he described it so well how he had to make sure Elvis looked presentable on his last journey. The tears of his friends were real, no pretentions. Sending love and peace in comfort that they did everything they could for Elvis and his family. Elvis forever! ❤
Elvis was his own man… if anyone sold their soul…Elvis did!
Elvis was a great dancer. One of the best entertainers!!
***** Get lost Loser nobody cares for your opinions
***** Michael Jackson didn't have to be taught nothing. He was doing James Brown before his father even had the idea of starting the jackson 5. You can't compare the two. They are both good in their own right. But Michael Jackson just so happens to be arguably the king of a genre that is fairly the most popular and strongest going.
Anthonyg Gordon, With all due respect to you and Michael Jackson, this video is about Elvis and not MJ...You have the right to your opinion, but if you want to comment about MJ, write comments under his videos...Btw, Elvis will always been known as the King...He put Rock n Roll on the roadmap...
JESUITARAY I wasn't replying to the video. I was replying to the man who mentioned false statements about Michael jackson
Sorry... :-)
You are missed and loved Mr. Elvis Presley, you made your mark on this earth!
His soul is in heaven with our Lord Savior 💖 His voice is an eternal gift loved by the world 🌎
😂😂loved and blessed
One of the greatest documentaries i have ever seen....these guys truly loved the man and spoke from their hearts ...i was only 15 when THE KING passed and it still is emotional...RIP, ELVIS, and to all his true friends who made this, thank you
They werent all his TRUE FRIENDS REMEMBER THE 3 THAT BETRAYED HIM WRITING THAT BOOK ELVIS WHAT HAPPENED THEY WERE AFTER MONEY BECAUSE VERNON HAD FIRED THEM JUST HANGERS ON USERS . THEY DIDNT THINK ABOUT ELVIS JUST THEM SELVES BETRAYING HIM INSTEAD OF REMAINING LOYAL TO THIS LOYAL GENUINE MAN WHICH HE WAS X GENEROUS WITH CARS HOUSES CLOTHES JEWELLERY THE LIST IS ENDLESS. R. I . P . ELVIS UNTIL WE MEET IN HEAVEN MY ANGEL. 💙💙💙
Charisma is too small a term to describe Elvis and I'm not a crazy fan, he just had it all, incredibly talented sweet man.
Did you know him?
Yes his fans still love him
This turned out to be so much sadder than I thought I could be.
Rest in peace Elvis
The friends of Elvis really loved him. Elvis was a good man
Ditto.
Lord Hugenstein They call it “southern charm” 🤣
LOVE THE WAY HE SANG THE SPIRITUAL SONGS. REALLY PUT HIS HEART INTO THAT
Glad I grew up with Elvis...loved him from his beginning right to his end.still love and cry for him and I'm 80
Don’t be deceived this man was full of sin and did not follow religion at all. He was an adulterer cheating on his wife their whole marriage
I do believe elvis the movie was the saddest movie I have ever seen. I did not sleep 🎉well and I thought about it for 🎉sev😢eral days.🎉😢 🎉Austin butler was the absolute one who could ever portray elvis. He was magnificent. Th🎉anks austin.
@@annemccurry2125
That is okay. You deserve to have your dreams. After seeing the movie I did not sleep well and I think about elvis and Priscillas life and why they could not be together. Shame on you Tom Parker and those who used him from the beginning. I was not a fan as so many were, but I loved his music an😢d his cute movies. My mother loved elvis, I felt the 😢same 🎉about james dean.🎉
I kept memorabilia from james dean. Elvis was the sweetest looking person I have ever seen.
His gospel songs WERE his heart ...
Gospel songs were Elvis's favorite songs ...he said so
himself ❤
Elvis had it all. he was a force of nature who lived life his way. His family mourned him till the day each one of them passed. Elvis you are missed.
This man gave me and countless others a lifetime of beautiful music, entertainment and we loved him for it.
Elvis Presley was and still IS the Greatest King of the Musical of this World... God has given him the most Beautiful Gifts to Us, his Personality, Songs, Body Language Of Dancing movements, Caring and Empathy to others and his Generosity too. RIP Elvis ☦️🛐🙏🏻🤲👍👌We All Love you forever😘😘😍🤩👏👏💞💞🌈🌟💖💖
however he died he left a tremendous footprint, never be filled.
I
Got That Right
yes he did bobby j!
There are many people who impersonate Elvis they make lots of money off of him and they say imitation is the best form of flattery they are right
Elvis was and still is the pure genius as far as his vocal abilities go.
His charm and charisma did the rest what is history, of course.
For those who are critical over his private matters I can just dedicate Elvis' famous saying:
"Do not criticize what you don't understand, son. You never walked in that man's shoes".
Cheers !!!
How can you ever understand drugs used to that degree, he needed real help.
@@bethp5638 Can't help those who don't want the help. This is something that needs to be realized first and then acted upon.
Elvis has a song. also ...with that quote you can find it on searching
@@sandradarlene8756 Sure, I will. Thanks a lot for the reply.
@@WitoldBanasik anytime I can help🌹
My grandmother loved Elvis we had his music on when she was dieing rip grandma and Elvis love you both
R.I.P. Elvis! Singin' with the angels! What a show that would be!
Thank you for your condolences
I'm 17 years old and I admire Elvis so much. I respect his strong work ethic and his incredible personality and kindness towards others. I really wish he was alive today to see all of of the lives that he impacted. RIP Legend 👼🙇
Kelli Andrews i’m 13. i have loved elvis since i was 5, and i wish so bad that he was still with us because i’ve always just loved him and the way he talks and sings just takes me back. it’s weird because it takes me back to to a time i wasn’t even born and yea that’s weird but that’s what it does
I'm glad to hear you say that, a lot of ppl don't know this, but he gave a lot to families in the ghettos' *poor blk families) never let it be said he was racist! Even his back up singers were blk...Elvis never forgot where he came from, and he treated his blk maid with the utmost respect and bought her a house, she claims Elvis's spirit comes to visit her...and bought so many cars as well....The thing about when he gave, he did it behind closed doors not some showy for all the world to see with back door deals and cameras everywhere, like Miss Oprah!...So called cars she gave away were not out of her pocket at all...but deals she made w/Ford...and she did it to look generous....but while she's a billionaire she is far from generous...just slick! just saying...Oprah, your no Elvis!
ashley davis 13 years old with a UA-cam account?? Where are your parents???
my parents are here lol, i like making videos and they see what i watch and what i make.
ashley davis I'm 29 but anyways I'm glad you like Elvis' music
The body is dead but the music will never die.
It will eventually die, as the human race will eventually die out. Life is ephemeral.
Elvis Presley is a legend 👌 He'll never die out. He's a huge part of that era and history 😇
Died from laughter (this was a joke i didnt mean it)
Elvis Soul is with Christ.
Why is it that so many entertainers die at the top of their game? You may want to go in a different direction and look into the possibility that he faked his death. If he wanted to retire with far less hassle faking his death is always a possibility and yes it has been done before for many other celebrities. Just a thought. And besides everyone else is speculating all day long isn't this just a valid???
THE ONE & ONLY.....THE KING OF R&R....RIP MY FRIEND ! COSTA RICA 👍
Elvis has a magnificent voice ❤ !! No one compares !
❤😊Most definitely 😊❤🎉!
Most definitely ❤😊🎉
I think that there should be a day dedicated to Elvis. Wonder if he actually knew how loved he was. I cried when I watched these men talk about the last days with him. His music will live on forever.
Well said
I totally agree I absolutely adored Elvis he was such an amazing human being I miss him so much 💕 xxx
Should be holiday , like M. Luther King
That's my thoughts to if Elvis knew how much he was loved ,I wish some one back then in a interveiw gave Elvis a question saying "Do you realise your love by millions what's your thoughts "Only if that question was ask will never know Elvises thoughts are ,Elvises questions were only about how he managed to do what he does with his music ❤
January 8th is his birthday and they have Elvis week leading up to the birthday celebration. His daughter LisaMarie was there last year four days before passing. I think there is already a day dedicated to Elvis and it will grow in popularity.
I saw Elvis in concert back in the 70's in the Mobile, AL Auditorium. I was very young, but I do remember it was a great show. Funny thing is, I went with my Mom and my Grandmother. Our seats were not close to the stage, and the only picture I have of Elvis from this night is poor quality, and very far away. But at least I can say, "I got to see Elvis Presley in concert."
you are so lucky to have seen him LIVE.
Awesome !!!
You and me both, n2fishn. Different venue, but I can say same. I saw Elvis in 1977, I was 10 years old, about four months before he died. I can remember him tossing his scarves into the crowd and I remember the theme song he had when he came out on stage. I was with my mom and step-dad. This was in April I believe. Come August, he was gone.
Thanks for sharing. That's a pretty cool story. I was 8 when he passed on. I remember that day very well.
@@pinomissalino me too, I was 6. Sad day I remember vividly.
Elvis was the best. You will never be forgotten
I am from Europe and I started listening to Elvis 40 years ago when I was 11 years old. I had one of these records labelled 'Elvis Forever' and these words still feel so true today. Long live the King!
Such a loss. Became a fan August 1977 the days after he died age 10...52 now, still my favourite singer
Poor Elvis ;( He had a tremendous voice. He was so young! A very sad story.
Thanks for the comment lesafaye - we hope you found the documentary interesting to watch and glad to see you were an Elvis fan. So many iconic musicians lost too early! Please feel free to subscribe to the channel to watch more of our great music documentaries featuring some huge music legends - you won't want to miss it! Thanks :)
+lesafaye he chose to be a junkie. he did it to himself. the bacon peanut butter banana sammiches didn't help either
All I know is I'd love to live and die as excellently as Elvis -- stoned, fat, and burnt-out inside, that's the best way to go.
+PhuckHue2 R&B... you mean roofies & booze is what he stole from the black man? I'd believe it, he'd also steal a PB and fried banana sandwich from a child or pregnant woman when he was loaded enough....... The King (of the b(l)ooze).
*****
dancing around the truth like a coward. dummies like you can't deal with reality and try to divert the attention to something else. I am not the issue here. Elvis was a racist dumb fat junkie hillbilly. just face it and get over it
Elvis was my idol. Loved his music, idol that was loved by all.
It warms my ❤ heart to hear from the people that knew & loved him the most! My mom and Aunt were huge Elvis fans and I remember the day well that he died. It was like a death in my own family. It was horrible 😢. And to this day, I adore Elvis! And it sickens me to hear what Tom Parker did to that man.
I was 23 when Elvis died and had to leave work I was crying so hard. I loved Elvis and his music but since a child of 10 or so,I always felt bad for him. He looked so sad much of the time. He had sad eyes like his mom and Lisa Marie inhereted them as well. I would have loved to be his friend. I always felt like he really needed a friend to trust. I loved him and still do. The Colonel was a big problem! He was the greedy, uncaring man who destroyed Elvis.

Elvis was a big part of my early teenage years. I still miss him.
Me too doll
i find that real cute because he's still a big part of my generations (gen z) teenage years :)
Fantastic documentary. No glamorisation. Just pals talking. They were true friends and what a lovely man Larry is.
AGREED I thought Mr Geller was incredible. Elvis associated with good people. Minus one. The one who worked him to death..
totally..
Elvis loved his crew..
A true. Southern gentleman. Rest peacefully with your precious Mother.
We'll see ya later, hero.
He was15, years older then, me.but from first time I heard Elvis, I loved his voice. But when I first time
I saw him,I melted,I was horny.,! Little girl was in love!!
When, I see his movie's or heard his voice ,I still
Feel same way and now, I'm 74, years young!!lol😢.
How,could his wife watch and know about all his; women friends?????😅😅😂❤
I feel so sorry for her!!!
Rlvis could have walked out on stage and just stood there and smiled at his audience and they would have gone wild and screamed.He was so special in every way, he was beyond human in his carisma!!
My God ELVIS was the best ever looking man on the PLANET!
I still remember the day he died . I was 7 years old. I seen it on the tv I called out to my mom and she dropped to her knees crying. From that day on Elvis was playing on every radio and news station for weeks . Our family loved Elvis we always had his records playing in our house even before he died.. I wanted to be Elvis so bad I remember asking my mom if I could get my pants to flair out at the bottom just like Elvis . I had all his 8 trac tapes .. He was truly the one and only King of Rock N Roll . Very tragic his ending was . I will never forget it . Still to this day I love his music . He was such a powerful force .
God bless is family . We are all blessed to have had such a great man entertain us all .may he rest in peace. .
I hope he got right with Jesus before his passing ..
mine too. then I read about him being a pedophile in that book by his cousin and I freaked. I haven't sang hound dog since.
robhart04 there was and never again will be anyone like Elvis Presley, He was the King of Rock-n-Roll and to me he always will be .
Rolling Stones Never Pass don't beleive everything you read . His cousin probally jiat jealous and needed the money and lets face it .garbage and lies will always sell books . His cousin should be ashamed of himself bro
Big Mac well, E was 19 when the world made him god. who knows what that would do to any of us. all the books can't be made up. but if you wanna believe in the cartoon Elvis...be my guest.
Big Mac, I was 7 at the time also. I am sure Elvis got right with Jesus when he passed. He seemed to be very public with his beliefs in the Gospel. God Bless you and your family, Big Mac. Rest in Peace, Elvis.
My entire life evolved around prescription drugs and I honestly couldn't help it. I was trapped in this unreal cycle of opioids and there was nothing that I could do, l really needed them. So don't blame Elvis for his addiction. Some people simply cannot function without them.
What Elvis needed was a friend to say I understand mate, but instead he got self righteous freaks judging him.
@dougfogarty2461 no, the problem was he had a lot of yes men who did not have the courage to tell him he had a problem
Well, he did function as a child and even as a teenager which is the most challenging time in most people‘s life. - As a natural night owl since early childhood (Kindergarten) I managed to function trying to adapt my duties to my natural sleeping pattern later on in order to live almost drug free which was difficult as most jobs, shifts and schools are at daytime. I ended up sleeping properly during my days off for decades. - As an artist it was even much easier for Elvis to do so but he decided to keep on consuming drugs.
Anyway, even if he would have led a healthier life I guess he would have died in the 1980s due to his coronary heart disease.
@@schwestersimone I completely disagree with childhood and teenage years being the most challenging time. Being an adult is much more challenging than being a child or teenager.
Thanks for being down to earth. God Bless He loves you.
I loved Elvis so much. I watched his movies, listened to his music. I watched his 68 special when it was originally on! He had more talent & charisma then anyone ever has had before, or after❤ Thank you for this tribute. It was nice to hear from his friends, the people who loved him. It is sad that his manager took his trust, & worked him like a dog😢
he was the man of rock and roll
May I ask if you live in Germany? Thanks :)
Friend : Elvis just take it easy and rest for a while. Elvis : I owe too much to too many people.
This was a wonderful tribute.. wonder where all these great guys are now. RIP ELVIS❤
I was born the year that Elvis recorded That's Alright Mama. I grew up listening to his music, I like so many, loved Elvis. Anyone who had the pleasure to know the Man, or to see him in concert was very blessed. I live in Australia so that was never going to happen for me. The closest I ever got to Elvis was a visit to Graceland, yes I got to walk in Memphis. Elvis left an indelible mark on everyone who knew him, listened to his music & loved him. Elvis will live for as long as we can listen to his amazing voice.
I don’t know how many times I have watched this show but each I watch it like it was the first time. He gave everything and kept nothing for himself. He was consumed by his world and it controlled him. He was the King 👑 and always will be.
Elvis was a wonderful singer and person but Jesus Christ is the only one that deserves to be called "King."
He was born just too early for there to be rehabilitation, real rehabilitation for those that can afford it. I doubt even the Dr's knew how to save him. Thankfully at least the rich have the option. Scotland is failing ridiculously for a first world country. Average people just don't have the choice, we are offered talk therapy or worse, groups with other addicts often still with using drugs. You just cannot be exposed at all to drugs in recovery. Like elvis I was prescribed drugs worse than heroin, tranquillisers of pharmaceutical quality, I've stopped again but there really is no help to get into a facility without being free and being free of these drugs is a long slow process that needs a lot more than talk therapy. I liken it to a cancer, talk therapy does not work and there's never been anybody more determined just to be balanced and healthy. It's a disgrace so much loss of life and talent and yet all these years later in Scotland, drug dependency is seen as a character flaw, a crime, even as I begged for help it took months and months to get it and I cannot relapse once with one pill, or I'll get no help again. Still no understanding that its a killer mental illness. It literally hijacks your reward systems, the mechanisms being the same for food sex and basic survival, still it doesn't have to end this way. I hope God or the universe will cure me so I can publish this and the dire need for lives to be saved by Dr's. They know very little other than don't prescribe, a start yes, but they need educated in offering tapering, give people a chance even if limited to once a year. The problem is most afflicted with this cannot articulate it because of stigma and often the fact you cannot stop taking prescription high potency drugs, it requires an educated Dr to sift through the cheats and see those screaming for help. As it stands there are no rehabilitation centres in Ayrshire except talk therapy or methadone for heroin addicts of which I am not, a needle would have made me run, a Dr.. Not so much. Just like poor elvis. I've outlived him 3 years of which in no small measure 12 years of family responsibilities saved my lifestyle. If only he had embraced his daughter and wife like he did his friends and groupies. It would be good to use with an added testimony of how this still affects our people and how actually straightforward and money saving it would be for the government to wean patients far away, maybe green meditative places and teach coping strategies for depression, that's the underpin of addiction, trauma like divorce, losing a child, losing family irreplaceable support networks, normal sadly but if a Dr prescribes you something that takes your pain away, it's not because one is evil that we keep taking it, it's because we are so isolated and alone, prejudice even from Dr's and the ever present dying to escape but never knowing how to feel good or enjoy again. It's torture worse than death. Happens to many performers and artists, maybe pain is what drives the creativity.
He kept the pills for himself
Jesus Christ is the King.
When anyone alive at the same time as Elvis thinks back through their lives Elvis is somewhere there.He, as well as Prince was massive and reached millions and millions more than most people.Theyare part of our souls.and we are so lucky to have had that.
I think most everyone's heart ruptured. RIP Elvis, You're still the King of Rock-n-Roll
Thank you for saying that doll ,I'm a loyal Elvis fan and I can't stand to hear people bash him
@@bugsydavis148 Creepy.
@Ios5513 U R also creepy.
No actually chuck berry lol
@@bugsydavis148
Nor can I. For what Possible Reason would anyone be compelled to "bash him". He lived his life, he gave his Fans pleasure & as far as I ever knew, hurt no one.
I remember when he first started, I remember when he appeared on the Ed Sullivan show on TV, when he was drafted and served his country honorably...nice memories. We All make choices in life...some good, some not so good.
But, he was a fascinating man!
Beautiful Documentary. Thank you 🙏🏼 Elvis will live in his songs and through our memories ♥️🍀♥️
A great documentry from those who were his mate's, and truly knew him.
These people were with him every step of the way.
Hopefully after watching this, and some of it is years ago!
Perhaps fans and viewers will let the rumour's of him still being alive, to rest.
Let Elvis RIP.
If only Elvis had someone who truly loved and cared for him and gotten him into hospital. Miss you Elvis i hope your in a better place 💔
Oh please. As a recovering addict I can tell u I had tons who truly love me. If love were the variable, there wouldn't be many drug addicts. Love isn't enough. Regardless of what u have been led to believe.
He is in heaven. A woman I know of was taken to Heaven an sai he is there...
@@glowinggold9488 Not true.... no one goes to the FATHER except thru Jesus Christ. Elvis never knew Jesus. Sad...
@@newheaven5146 Elvis professed to know Jesus. On YT there are videos of him telling his concert audience, "I'm not the King; there is only one King and that is Jesus Christ."
We are not to judge whether another person knew Jesus. You don't know.
Priscilla tried.
I got to see Elvis 3 times. You could feel the love in the air .Such a tragedy. Elvis will live forever through his music.
greg martinez
When I watch ELVIS dvds you can sense the love between ELVIS and the fans .
ELVIS is truly missed .
greg martinez
I'ts great by the way that you got to see ELVIS , what a fantastic experience .😎
How cool it would have been to have seen Elvis live!
RIP.Elvis. Always in our ❤️From Norway🇳🇴
It’s been 46 yrs rest in peace your work is done on earth
I'd like to meet Larry Geller and have a long discussion about Elvis. I'll bet he has a lot of fascinating stories to tell.
jerseytomato100 I've just finished If I Can Dream co-written by Larry Gellar and based on diaries he kept at the time. A good read and probably comes closer to who the real Elvis was and what his talent meant.
+jerseytomato100 He really bugs me. It's hard for me to listen to him talk. He just sounds so insincere.
The men interviewed here were true Elvis Presley confidantes. True to the core. Rest in peace Elvis.
He had to die to give new life to all the dead souls surrounding him!
I still remember watching Elvis movies on Saturday afternoons & how happy it made me. Elvis was beautiful.
This clip was so moving, it made me shed a few tears - my heart really goes out to the people talking in this clip that knew him the best. It may sound weird but I really wanted to reach out & give the guy a hug who did his hair 1 last time, his pain was all to real all these years later 😢
His voice was so beautiful! He is still here, boys.
Long Live The King!
Give me a Amen if you love Elvis
Amen. I love Elvis x
+Amanda Jayne Bristow oh yes, yes yes AMEN
You're an Angel Sandra God bless you :)
+Amanda Jayne Bristow WHAT DOES ONE SAY TO THAT? i ain't one that reads something like that and has anything to say, amanda, but if I'm an angel. well thank you amanda, and thank God. you must be there on my cloud. and we are singing with elvis!!!!
We are all together singing with the King of Rock and Roll Sandera and it's awesome my friend :)
+Amanda Jayne Bristow :) that's a sideways smile.
We were stationed in Millington, TN. & would always know when he was in town. Once he was in the hospital and was so appreciative of his nurse. He told her to look outside in the parking lot. He said.”You see that new car 🚘, that’s yours for caring and taking good care of me!” TRUE STORY!! I don’t remember the model or style, but it made the papers In Memphis, TN.
So sad !!! A lot of people used Elvis for what he could give them, or what they could get from him. He had many fans at his funeral, but I'm not to sure about true friends . So so sad !!! No wonder he felt lonely in a crowd of people .
Weyve lost so many gifted musicians way too young...The thought that any of these deaths could have been prevented is heartbreaking.
in a twisted way, their wild and decadent lifestyles has been key in making them the talented stars that they were. quite possible that if he didn't live a fast life, he might have never been the legend that he became.
Elvis is Singing with the Angels now ❤
I really miss Kenny Rogers although he wasn’t young. I love him still
For some reason, the most creative and talented individuals are the ones most likely to develop addictions which lead to early deaths
None would have been prevented. People these days are so self centred and couldn't give a flying FK.
He was a legend, 🙌, wish he lived longer! 😢
Elvis gave to everyone and he is the one who payed the ultimate price!Everyone makes mistakes and no body is perfect!I'm 53 and I always loved him and his daughter Lisa Marie!and when he passed away I thought someone in my family died!
Exactly. Danggg...😢
The best singer of all time. And the most handsome too.
That's 🧢
@kellyelrington5663 ...False!
The people who loved him genuinely were shook up when he died. That's the way it works. I feel for them when they tell the story of his passing.
Elvis was a fantastic entertainer! But his so-called friends? Some were just users of his money. What a shame.
@@georgebaker8577 exactly and AMEN!
What a beautiful and sad 😢 documentary - Elvis will always be loved by the people around the world 🙏🏻🌷🌍
@Steven Aguirre This was a good documentary and I was curious about Elvis' last days but I wasn't major fan of his , my mother in law is a lover of Elvis, but Elvis was before my time, so I couldn't get into Elvis the way other people in his fan base did. To me, he is okay but I have seen a lot better performers than Elvis since his time. I am sorry that he died though because his loved ones miss him terribly and so did his own fans. But I wasn't a fan in any true sense of the word. He's got a good voice, but after Elvis, so many singers had great voices after him.
I believe Elvis was very lonely before his death. This posse was just using him.
What A. LOST TO . HUMANITY.
WHAT. A. LOST. ......... Forever.........................
.
People are opinionated, to each his own. But the Elvis we knew and loved was a human being. He lived, loved, laughed, and died. His death was mourned by millions and millions, we just never thought he would die. But all human beings must die.❤❤❤
❤ Hes ok.He found the truth!Praise the Lord!😢
Elvis you will never be forgotten. RIP!
He ain't shit and never was.
shut up @chanel marley he was not shit, you are
why do you hate him? because you think he's racist? he wasn't. do your research and you'll learn that he appreciated black people and their music.
I choose not to remember how The King died. I want to remember how he lived, and his music.
WindwalkerPhotographyNH well said... I'd rather remember all the good and the things he had done... and the beautiful person he was💛
Claudia Picariello
That's how ELVIS would have wanted us to remember him, his wonderful talent his generosity his kindness and fantastic personality .
There was definitely something magical about the guy. Sad how things ended.
You can tell these men all truly love him what a gift
