For the ppl that say they hate Elvis...I really think those ppl have hate mixed up with Jealousy......No way can anyone hate this man.... Elvis has given this world so much that ppl today can not ever compare to this man in any way, shape or form....And they know it!!!!!
if you haven't seen Elvis and the Black Community(parts 1 and 2) you are missing a great exhibit of Elvis and his relationships in the Black music culture.
His drummer said working with Elvis was like working with a stripper on a stripper pole. Ronnie kept his eyes on Elvis and Elvis would deliberately try to make moves that Ronnie would miss - but they were great together
elvis was pure catnip for the entire female genode! to be that incredibly drop-dead gorgeous while being kind, never condescending or rude to anyone, humble and sweet in combination with being sexy and having an incredible voice that you use to sing love songs to women... of course the women will go mad! .........
Pls go back to the 50's to see what Elvis had to go thru to put his music out. Do some research u will be surprised . Elvis grew up in the ghetto , dirt poor, no electricity no inside plumbing. Elvis didn't get the respect he deserved while he was alive. Go see the Elvis movie u will learn alot about Elvis as a human being & man.
You need to check out Suspicious Minds 1970 Las Vegas live. You will see classic 70s Elvis. BTW...the police wanted to jail him for his dancing! They thought his incredible moves while he sang was scandalous. A lot of singer/dancers got their moves from him! He is the King and always will be.
I believe Elvis was born & raised in Mississippi, a southern boy. He wasn't fake. People were jealous & envious of him. Soul doesn't have a color. It's within you. You either have it, or you dont. Elvis definitely did have it❣️ He was a good actor also. Check out one of his many movies sometime. ❤ 😃
Tupelo Mississippi was his birth place. Mid 30s and dirt poor. They moved around a lot, one place being Shakerag, Ended up in Memphis. Where he paid his dues.
Just to add to my previous comment. During his childhood, there was a time when things got so bad that his father Vernon attempted to forge a cheque, but got caught and did time in prison. 2 yrs I think. This left Gladys and Elvis to have to fend for themselves. There were people who helped them through that, as much as they could. I think thatit was During this time Elvis learned how generosity, and people giving, even when they didn't have much themselves, can really make a difference during hardship. Maybe that's where his generos and giving nature came from. Being on the receiving end of that and knowing how that feels, is something people don't understand unless you live it yourself. Of course, being in that situation, you also know the other side of that coin of how people can be cruel.. It helped shape who he was as a human being.
I grew up listening to Elvis around the time he passed and well into the 80's, still love his music. The fact this dude had the balls to get up there dressed like he was, and do his dancing, or gyrating maybe, and sometimes karate, and still keep the audience glued in was great. He has the full attention of the audience in every live show I've watched. Guy is still great all these years later.
I was driving south from Seattle through Portland in 1976. At that time I-5 crested a small hill and you could see the freeway and a very long off ramp. I couldn’t BELIEVE the number of cars packing the right 2 lanes and the ramp. MILES of cars, not moving. Didn’t know what was going on so switched radio channels. Elvis was at the Colosseum….I had no idea, the Stone Age and everything. There were a lot of trees but you could still see all of the streets that were packed. On the radio the only thing you heard was , ‘Elvis has left the building’. The concert had been over for a while and still the people came. This announcement was repeated quite a few times. Until I saw all of those people I hadn’t understood why they made the announcement. They did it so people would understand that he was gone rather than storming the area. It was amazing and I wasn’t even really there
Elvis was born in North Mississippi and raised there and in Memphis. This area is the home of the American blues and southern gospel music. It was also at a time when people listened to the Grand Ole Opry from Nashville on the radio every Saturday night - so Elvis was just a product of what he knew, what he grew up with. He melded it all together (blues, gospel and country music) and they called it rock n roll. He didn't steal anyone's music. That is laughable and people don't know what they are talking about.
4:32 - a girl had slipped him a note during the previous song and he put it in his belt. He pulled it out and read it, then handed it to Charlie Hodge.
A lady next to the stage handed him that note. Great reaction Polo! This man was phenomenal. Please react to Sweet Caroline live, at this same Vegas show in 1970. During this performance Elvis shows the lady he still has her note.
Elvis was the heart throb of all the women when he was back in his day. What am I talking about they carried torches for him for years. Even after his death. He was so good and powerful singer. He brought tears to my eyes when he sung American Trilogy! You can really respect him and anyone that did not see that were blind. He used to kiss the women down front at the stage all the time. The women went crazy..... Big smiles. Rest in Peace but never forgotten!!!!!!!
Elvis was the consummate performer. The way he could control a crowd was just something special. Just listen to those screams. Great reaction Polo and it was fantastic to see this again.
I saw this performance at the International Hotel in Las Vegas. It was his Comeback Tour. I was a young 13yo Elvis Presley fanatic. I have seen him a total of 3 times before he passed. He definitely gets you mesmerized when he performs. RIP Elvis and Lisa Marie.
From the time he began, I listened to every single song he sang....I suppose that I am telling my age, however, he was unlike any other performer ever to grace a stage! Automatically the world knew that they were witnessing pure genius! Nobody before or after ELVIS had the charisma, sheer talent, or ability to captivate an audience like him! He was THE original, at his best at all times! We knew that we were experiencing greatness, and NO ONE would ever compare to him!!! I was along for the ride from the beginning! How spectacular this man truely was! Unless you saw him live, then you can't possibly understand!!! He was and still is the GOAT! And he recorded almost 800 songs, went to the Army when he was called up, and made 31 movies! All of the while performing concerts, live appearances, and doing Vegas! He was, is, and always will be THE KING OF ROCK and ROLL! No one will ever compare to ELVIS PRESLEY!
Thank You for the sincere compliment on how women looked back then. We were/are proud to be women and whenever we went out we always strived to look our best and put our best foot forward. Some of us still do this and makes us feel complete and know it makes our husbands/ significant others feel good too !
Give it to them Elvis! I couldn't have been the videographer at his shows because I would constantly have his whole body in the frame. I just love that wide stance of his. 🤗 Stop laughing when he starts dancing. Yes he could have had any possibly all of the women in the audience. 😆 I'm surprised you didn't laugh or say anything about the mic. Caught you off guard, didn't it? 😂🤣😅 Probably a note with a woman's phone number on it given to him earlier. Love your channel. Keep Elvis alive! Thank you, Thank you very much!
You need to check out Elvis and the black community it’s a 2 part video. You’ll get a lot of info about how the black community and white community thought about Elvis. It will surprise you.
Elvis broke every rule on TV with his swing hips. It might look funny now compared to what they can do on screen today but back then, they would only show him from the waist up because of his moves.
Check out ‘ reconsider Baby ‘ from 1960. His version of ‘ tomorrow is a long Time’ that will blow your mind. And a very special song called ‘ I’m Leavin’
I've seen his poke salad performance a million times and yes he still has that stage presense that has me hanging on the edge. His dancing throughout knocks me right off though.
BRO, Legend says that the note ELVIS received while he was performing was some fan's telephone number. In the light of his only daughter's tragic death, there is a "studio enhanced" song that seems befitting. ELVIS had recorded "Where No One Stands Alone" some years before he passed. Through the modern miracles of studio engineering, Lisa Marie's voice was added to ELVIS'S original vocal. And it works! We can never know what tomorrow brings. THANK YOU!
You mentioned the bass player - Elvis' band during this period had some of the best musicians of that time. The bass player, Jerry Scheff, is one of the best, he's played on a lot of great stuff during the years, including the Door's last album with Jim Morrison and the lead guitarist, James Burton, is one of the most influential guitarists of all time. The drummer is amazing. His back-up singers were the Sweet Inspirations which for a while included Cissie Houston (Whitney's Mom).
Poke is a weed that is similar to arugala…prepared in a cast iron skillet (like spinach)with bacon grease( the 🥓),onions,and apple vinegar…makes me hungry just typing this…yum! Actually, I used to pick poke out of the field next to our business in the mid-60s in Kirkwood in St. Louis County MO..not precisely the “South”….
Elvis was slightly past his prime in this video but his greatness still shines through. Definitely check out some of his earlier performances and movies to see what all the hoopla was about. Lots of great songs and awesome musicians and dancing. When he performed on TV they only filmed him from the waist up. Too much for the ladies.
DANCE?...YYYess, there are videos from his early days just focused on his dance .... He sure could move and make people move. Don't forget he started with rockabilly ❤❤
Every move he made was a command, or a direction to someone on that stage, mostly, his drummer, he dueled with him all the time, challenging him to keep up with him. Putting the mic in his mouth was him messing around with his sound guys, so get your mind outta the gutter! lol Like they said, He was a ball of energy, set to music! And he loved to play around with the band. They said they never knew what he was going to do next with a song, it depended on his mood!
@Tigerman ⚡️👑 The band said that was why he did it. IDK, just what they said, they said he did all kinds of strange things, just to mess around with them! That is where I got it from. I'm old, been around a long time, I remember things, interviews that happened decades ago, unlike the new generation who are just now hearing him! I grew up listening to, and watching him. There were things said about him on a daily basis on the radio back then, I'm talking about back in the 60's!
In that era, it was an age of legendary song writers. Elvis performed some 700 songs. He was a musician who played great rhythm guitar and piano and boy could HE SING. Legendary sought after rich baritone. ZERO songswere stolen. EVERY SONG WRITER GOT PAID, and paid really well. Yes -- Including the black song writers that sold their music to Elvis to perform. Lieber and Stoller were two Jewish guys that wrote most of Elvis best material from the early 50s. Not a SINGLE STOLEN SONG. Most big stars had songs written for them. It was considered an honor to have an Elvis or a Frank Sinatra or a Nat King Cole perform a song that you wrote.
My dad took my sister and I to San Antonio back in the early 70’s to see Elvis. Something you won’t forget. FYI, music is my timeline. I also saw prince before he passed. Another great.
You didn’t know Elvis could dance! HA !! You have a lot to learn. He was the first man ever censored on TV because they thought he danced “too vulgar.” They had warrants out to arrest him if he danced and when he went on TV shows they would only shoot him from the waist up. Like I said, “you have lots to learn.” 👑
There was a time when they wouldn't show Elvis from the waist down on television. They thought his movements were a little too suggestive. He was great! As a little girl I loved his movies.
Holy Cannoli! You have a 109K subscribers? WOW 😱😁 WELL DONE 👏👏👏👏🙌💃🙌💃🌹🌹💐💐 Congratulations 🎉🎆🎈🎉🎆🎈 As for the note: Elvis got that from one of his fans in the audience earlier on in this concert- during his "Love Me" performance. He shakes hands and kisses some fans during that performance and it was one of the lady fans that Elvis showed some love to that handed him the note. Then during his "Sweet Caroline" performance from this same concert, Elvis retrieves the note from his belt and holds it up and gives a nod before tucking it back into his belt and going on with the song and performance. Also: Elvis's band during this time period was the TCB ⚡ band. TCB ⚡ stood for "Taking Care Of Business" and the ⚡ stood for "In A Flash". The guys in Elvis's family & friend circle would get their own TCB ⚡ necklace from Elvis and the ladies in his circle of family & friends would get a TLC necklace- TLC stood for Tender Loving Care. Loved 💖💖💖💖 this reaction! Thank you so very much! TCB ⚡ & TLC ❤ & peace ✌& blessings 🙏 to you & yours & that goes for one & all here as well 💕
For years I never knew what a "truck patch" was. Always assumed it was the back of a truck. Turns out it's a private patch of land where you grew vegetables for your own use, as opposed to growing them for the market. "Stealing watermelons out of my truck patch" meant someone was stealing the veggies you were growing for yourself, not the back of a truck, LOL. Who knew?
I was a teenager in the 60’s and went to every Elvis movie and loved Elvis more than the Beatles. The high hair on women was achieved with special hair pieces. Back then girls always dressed up and we went to dances every week-end. Music was a big part of our social life because T.V was so limited. Glad you enjoyed this Video. He really worked his audience which made it fun!
In South Carolina my grandmother use to make polk salad with hot bacon grease. Was good. But I was a kid; what did I know? We weren't dependant on it for food though.
Elvis was probably reading the names of any celebrities in the audience, which there were always several, so that he could introduce them to the audience. He did it at all of his Las Vegas performances, & probably anywhere else he was performing. It was a matter of courtesy & Elvis was always a polite Southern gentleman.
Man, I am also traveling down the Elvis rabbit hole and it’s nice to know I’m not alone! I also love your Tool reactions! Probably my favorite band followed by Pearl Jam and it’s fun to see other people loving it too.
Elvis has been around for a long time. To realize how notoriously revolutionary he was and to discover a time when he was the first mainstream artist to incorporate energetic dance performance to the mainstream, checkout the iconic Jailhouse Rock video from '57.

Great reaction to Elvis.
You didn’t know Elvis could dance? Dude you have *A LOT* to learn! 😂
He has a hole lot of learning to do GOD BLESS
whole@@frankhuggins9856
He got learnt today
ROFLMAO!!!!! Dude! You are talking about "... the king of rock'n roll" here. Where do you think all of this came from?
😂
Elvis is the absolute best ever no one will ever match him he is my boyfriend since 1955 and I have been married 48 years
For the ppl that say they hate Elvis...I really think those ppl have hate mixed up with Jealousy......No way can anyone hate this man.... Elvis has given this world so much that ppl today can not ever compare to this man in any way, shape or form....And they know it!!!!!
Oh Aye x
Amen
Chuck berry was quoted as saying that "elvis was the greatest that ever was or ever will be"
AND Chuck Wisnae too bad a mean CHUCK BERRY!!!
Elvis at his absolute peak during those years. Phenomenal. The man's stage presence is unequalled.
The most beloved Super Star ever .... and he will forever be loved .... believe that
For good reason.
if you haven't seen Elvis and the Black Community(parts 1 and 2) you are missing a great exhibit of Elvis and his relationships in the Black music culture.
I concur, a definite must!
Long live elvis
Hes also part native american. His great grandma was. Thats why he played in the movie Flaming Star.
Does Elvis need to be validated by the Black community?
Yes check this out for sure, thx for the reaction
He always made sure you never left disappointed..yes got your moneys worth and then some.
How could you not know Elvis could dance....that's what started all of the craziness!!
This is Elvis in coolest dude ever form, I'm talking black or white, no one beats him in my book!
Elvis was always killing it
Elvis's voice and talent will never be equaled
I saw Elvis in Vegas the next year! He was amazing.
ELVIS also knew KARATE and often included moves in his act. YOU are RIGHT…he is just having FUN!
His drummer said working with Elvis was like working with a stripper on a stripper pole. Ronnie kept his eyes on Elvis and Elvis would deliberately try to make moves that Ronnie would miss - but they were great together
E was funny as all hell!!!! His laugh is full of soul also!!!!
And he performed all of his moves with a corded microphone. Flawlessly🔥💜
That always amazes me...never tripped or got tangled...incredible ❤
elvis was pure catnip for the entire female genode! to be that incredibly drop-dead gorgeous while being kind, never condescending or rude to anyone, humble and sweet in combination with being sexy and having an incredible voice that you use to sing love songs to women... of course the women will go mad! .........
And a great sense of humor and a joyful playfulness and a red hot bad ass streak.
Pls go back to the 50's to see what Elvis had to go thru to put his music out. Do some research u will be surprised . Elvis grew up in the ghetto , dirt poor, no electricity no inside plumbing. Elvis didn't get the respect he deserved while he was alive. Go see the Elvis movie u will learn alot about Elvis as a human being & man.
Elvis was the real deal…any era any race any region 😎

I was driving south from Seattle through Portland in 1976. At that time I-5 crested a small hill and you could see the freeway and a very long off ramp.

Elvis was born in North Mississippi and raised there and in Memphis. This area is the home of the American blues and southern gospel music. It was also at a time when people listened to the Grand Ole Opry from Nashville on the radio every Saturday night - so Elvis was just a product of what he knew, what he grew up with. He melded it all together (blues, gospel and country music) and they called it rock n roll. He didn't steal anyone's music. That is laughable and people don't know what they are talking about.
@marilynwillett804 Elvis was born in North Mississippi - Tupelo, Mississippi.
4:32 - a girl had slipped him a note during the previous song and he put it in his belt. He pulled it out and read it, then handed it to Charlie Hodge.
A lady next to the stage handed him that note. Great reaction Polo! This man was phenomenal. Please react to Sweet Caroline live, at this same Vegas show in 1970. During this performance Elvis shows the lady he still has her note.
What I like about Elvis is you can go from one extreme of entertainment to the other. And in between. There's a different Elvis every time.
Elvis could do everything. The most charismatic, beautiful performer of all time. 💕💕
Great reaction. Elvis has the total package. ❤
That cute smile that gives the crowd.
Elvis was the heart throb of all the women when he was back in his day. What am I talking about they carried torches for him for years. Even after his death. He was so good and powerful singer. He brought tears to my eyes when he sung American Trilogy! You can really respect him and anyone that did not see that were blind. He used to kiss the women down front at the stage all the time.

I Love Elvis Today Tomorrow And Forever ! The King !
Elvis knew he had fans that just came to see him move so he would throw songs in his concerts that he could move to 😊
It doesn't matter how many times I see this it like watching for the first-time every time ! Great reaction !❤
I saw this performance at the International Hotel in Las Vegas. It was his Comeback Tour. I was a young 13yo Elvis Presley fanatic. I have seen him a total of 3 times before he passed. He definitely gets you mesmerized when he performs.
RIP Elvis and Lisa Marie.

I wish everybody could have seen him perform alive I still remember
Thank You for the sincere compliment on how women looked back then. We were/are proud to be women and whenever we went out we always strived to look our best and put our best foot forward. Some of us still do this and makes us feel complete and know it makes our husbands/ significant others feel good too !
Elvisbwas singing about a poisenus root from the south.And Elvis was A black belt in Marshal arts.He put his moves on stage.
The KING
This is an unbelievable performance!!!
Elvis was a Southerner....that's how we say thank you very much down here in the South...lol!
The King of Rock and Roll.
Give it to them Elvis! I couldn't have been the videographer at his shows because I would constantly have his whole body in the frame.

Honey, Elvis could do it all! And even if most ppl can't make it look good he'll convince you it does when he does it! Just fantastic charisma!
True Elvis was one hell of a performer no one like him ever Suspicious minds is another fast one and Patch it up loved your reaction thank you 😀
Can't help but smile so big while watching him 😁
Elvis ran the show from beginning to end.
You need to check out Elvis and the black community it’s a 2 part video. You’ll get a lot of info about how the black community and white community thought about Elvis. It will surprise you.
And Elvis, the King of Kindness, illustrates his generosity. He never asked for anything from others, he just gave kindness to others.
It was his dance which caused a revolution!!! Please see the new movie "ELVIS" and the movie video of "Jailhouse Rock" ......
GOAT.
Elvis broke every rule on TV with his swing hips. It might look funny now compared to what they can do on screen today but back then, they would only show him from the waist up because of his moves.
Check out ‘ reconsider Baby ‘ from 1960.
His version of ‘ tomorrow is a long Time’ that will blow your mind.
And a very special song called ‘ I’m Leavin’
Legendary!
Love that ❤

Those side Bern are called pork chops berns.Vonnie 😂😅😊😂❤❤❤
This is a crazy song but I love it. I think Elvis was having fun with this one. 😁
Voted ARTIST OF THE CENTURY.
One of my favorite Elvis performances.
Everything Elvis does is magnificent! He is everything!

He whipped that crowd into a frenzy!!!!
So funny. I watched this for the first time last week lol. And I’m 59. I think I’m a fanatic now.
DANCE?...YYYess, there are videos from his early days just focused on his dance .... He sure could move and make people move. Don't forget he started with rockabilly ❤❤

I have to say I respect this dude and he is legit
You didn’t know Elvis could dance! HA !! You have a lot to learn. He was the first man ever censored on TV because they thought he danced “too vulgar.” They had warrants out to arrest him if he danced and when he went on TV shows they would only shoot him from the waist up. Like I said, “you have lots to learn.” 👑
There was a time when they wouldn't show Elvis from the waist down on television. They thought his movements were a little too suggestive. He was great! As a little girl I loved his movies.
I love Elvis, never dis him or I will unsubscribe you are a great guy so don't disappoint us King fans love new subscriber ❤❤

As for the note: Elvis got that from one of his fans in the audience earlier on in this concert- during his "Love Me" performance. He shakes hands and kisses some fans during that performance and it was one of the lady fans that Elvis showed some love to that handed him the note.
Then during his "Sweet Caroline" performance from this same concert, Elvis retrieves the note from his belt and holds it up and gives a nod before tucking it back into his belt and going on with the song and performance.
Also: Elvis's band during this time period was the TCB ⚡ band. TCB ⚡ stood for "Taking Care Of Business" and the ⚡ stood for "In A Flash".
The guys in Elvis's family & friend circle would get their own TCB ⚡ necklace from Elvis and the ladies in his circle of family & friends would get a TLC necklace- TLC stood for Tender Loving Care.
Loved 💖💖💖💖 this reaction!
Thank you so very much!
TCB ⚡ & TLC ❤ & peace ✌& blessings 🙏 to you & yours & that goes for one & all here as well 💕
For years I never knew what a "truck patch" was. Always assumed it was the back of a truck. Turns out it's a private patch of land where you grew vegetables for your own use, as opposed to growing them for the market. "Stealing watermelons out of my truck patch" meant someone was stealing the veggies you were growing for yourself, not the back of a truck, LOL.
Who knew?
I saw him in Richmond VA in the 70s all the women went crazy
I was a teenager in the 60’s and went to every Elvis movie and loved Elvis more than the Beatles. The high hair on women was achieved with special hair pieces. Back then girls always dressed up and we went to dances every week-end. Music was a big part of our social life because T.V was so limited. Glad you enjoyed this Video. He really worked his audience which made it fun!
He was great!
AAA thank ya very much had me Rollin so true 🤣🤣🤣

Love Elvis reactions.♥️
In South Carolina my grandmother use to make polk salad with hot bacon grease. Was good. But I was a kid; what did I know? We weren't dependant on it for food though.
Elvis was probably reading the names of any celebrities in the audience, which there were always several, so that he could introduce them to the audience. He did it at all of his Las Vegas performances, & probably anywhere else he was performing. It was a matter of courtesy & Elvis was always a polite Southern gentleman.
💞💞💞💞💞💞💥💥 Beautiful Elvis! Great reaction! Thank you!
Polo. Glad you liked his performance. You have a terrific channel. That's due to your abilities. Thank you.
I sure miss that man 😂. I remember the very first time on the Ed Sullivan Show ❤ He had my heart from that point on.
I think Elvis could get about any woman now. Good looks, great music, great performer.
My way by Elvis ❤️❤️❤️
Man, I am also traveling down the Elvis rabbit hole and it’s nice to know I’m not alone! I also love your Tool reactions! Probably my favorite band followed by Pearl Jam and it’s fun to see other people loving it too.
Elvis has been around for a long time. To realize how notoriously revolutionary he was and to discover a time when he was the first mainstream artist to incorporate energetic dance performance to the mainstream, checkout the iconic Jailhouse Rock video from '57.
Elvis band was known as TCB = Taking Care of Business
I love love your reaction. Please do more on Elvis.
