    Awesome song. It's called American Trilogy because is a mash-up of three different songs. Dixie, a popular folk song about the south, battle hymn of the republic, representing the North and was a marching song of the northern union army and All My Trials which was an old African American spiritual. It's a song that tells the story about our country going to war with itself during the Civil War. Pretty epic.

He was first to have a concert beamed around the world by satellite. He was first to have the USPS issue a commemorative stamp in his honor. 16 movies have been made about him. His home is the 2nd most-visited U.S. residence, annually, 2nd only to the White House. 82.6% of all households watched Elvis on Ed Sullivan.

He never went out during the day and had to rent out cinemas and restaurants to be able to do anything. And this was way before the internet. Elvis was what started up the music industry we see today and opened up the gates for stars like Michael. There has never been a bigger star since Elvis and he still holds the world record of the best-selling solo artist.

    Elvis packed every venue and they were usually sold out within hours of tickets going on sale. People flew on from all over the world to hear him sing when he was in Vegas. Michael, as good as he was, never beat Elvis in record sales. Elvis came in second only to The Beatles. It took a band of 4 guys to beat Elvis in record sales. They topped him in albums sold but he outsold them in singles sales. Michael came in 3rd. This was for ALL records sold worldwide by anyone.
    As stated below, for records sold by a solo performer, Elvis outsold Michael and is still number 1 to this day I think.

      However, I don't think the 2 should be compared talent wise. We're talking 2 different times in music. Michael ruled the pop world in his time. Elvis ruled every genre he sang and really created his own genre but he always acknowledged the artists who influenced him. He always thought the original artists were better singing the songs he covered so he threw his style in to change it and make it his own.

In his lifetime, he was the Biggest solo artist worldwide. He is still Huge today, 47 years after his death at the age of 42 in 1977 & recently his record Blue Christmas hit the Number One spot again. Not only was he the Biggest solo artist of all time, but his stage performances were All Sold Out within a couple of hours, & that was after he had been shot to stardom in the mid-1950s right up to his very last live concert in June 1977. He died in August 1977. Just joining your channel for your Elvis Reactions … I’ve been a big fan of Elvis for over sixty years now & so has my wife, & we’re both 72. Thank you for a great reaction.

    Elvis was as beloved as much as Michael Jackson and people came to see him from all over the world. For a single person (if you counted all the pirated record sales, and music uncounted, etc.) he is most likely the single most selling recording artist of all time when you consider his portfolio in total. And through much of his career, there was no MTV or even chances to play overseas and no Internet or anything like that to bolster his career. Elvis never performed any worldwide tours. He also purposely did not do much media or appearances on talk shows. That helped create a mystique that was like a superhero. But his fans were almost religious in their following. I've seen middle-aged women try and kill themselves just to be able to touch him at a show one time when I was a kid. They would have stood in line for days just to meet him. To his fans, Elvis was like the Pope is to a fervent Catholic. It was astounding, but an illusion in a sense, because no one is really "famous" as fame is something that is created by the followers themselves. Sadly, Elvis' mega stardom helped kill him because no one could ever live up to that kind of inhuman status.

    Elvis was named the #1 entertainer of the 20th century. On this song, when he cues the background singers to come back in with his left hand after the trumpet fanfare as he's turning around is one of the coolest moves in music history. Michael was immensely talented, but he was pretty weird. Elvis was pretty normal all things considered. He had his demons (as we all do), but didn't sleep with little boys or talk like a girl. Also, go watch how almost any woman of any age reacts to Elvis. They adore him like no other man I can think of.

      Queen were the next for genuine powerful performances, skill and passion. The King and Queen.😊
      MJ wasn't close but he did some good songs. So did many others. But Elvis? He was something else! 💪🏼❤️

    I watched this concert on TV in 1973 when I was in eighth grade. Elvis took the stage I thought he was the coolest dude I’ve ever seen. Still is. Later I learned that it was me and 1 1/2 billion people around the world who watched this concert live. Elvis LIVES! You’ll find out. 174

    Elvis was the most popular singer and entertainer in the world. Sixty thousand people a year still visit his museum and his home, forty four years after his death. The only home that is visited more is the White house. Elvis is a Legend in the truest sense. I immediately subbed. thank you.

    Elvis was bigger than Michael Jackson. He was and is loved worldwide to this day, 40+ years after his death. His home, Graceland, is the second most visited home in the country, second only to the Whitehouse. Elvis appeals to all different ages, nationalities and racial groups. He's in more music hall of fame's than anyone, to my knowledge. He was the first superstar beloved worldwide, long before MTV and the internet.

    Elvis was the best entertainer of all time. MJ stole Elvis moves jumping up on his toes n his famous gyrating moves. He sweats due to this suit weighing 75#'s n real gems all over the suit I was at this concert n sat 3rd row center n couldn't take my eyes off of him. This concert was first broadcasted show ever by any artist n it was seen around the world and seen by 1.5 Billion people. This venue as full All his shows from early 50's - 70's were sold out. I never got to meet Elvis but became friends with Charlie Hodge his confidant and best friend for 8years after Elvis died n im glad I kept a journal with hundreds of stories React to Suspicious Minds Vagus 1970, Bridge Over Troubled Water Vagus 1970, Polk Salad Annie1970 Vagus, Just Pretend Vagus 1970 n 500 more This man gave most of his million away to friends and family and people in need that he didn't even know He gave Cadillacs, Motorcycles, Jewelry, Houses, Trips, etc He didn't like money only to give to people n make them happy. Sorry to take up your time but I love Elvis for what he did for the world miss Elvis n my friend Charlie

    Elvis has the stats to show that HE was the greatest of all time....He has sold well over a BILIION records and still counting...No one else has done that yet. ..44 years after his death Elvis is still loved by millions the world over....When Elvis first started in the 1950s he single handedly changed the course of music and kicked down all the doors that separated black music from white music . He has influenced many others , both black and white, and gave many of them the opportunity to have music careers of their own...If not for Elvis , who exploded like an Atomic bomb in the 50s , rock and roll music might have died a quick death back then. Elvis was doing a side-step version of the Moonwalk even before Michael Jackson was born...You can see this dance move in the film LOVING YOU . I really could go on and on , but what I'm trying to say is that Elvis was the First in many things...First and the greatest at what he did. They call him 'the king' for a reason. There's NOBODY quite like Elvis, and I don't think there ever will be.

    Elvis was is and always will be the GOAT. He broke down the barriers and made way for people like Michael. Elvis wasn't just an icon for his performances it was for his heart, understandably you didn't grow up in that error and yes Michael Jackson was also great but for a different time

    When you see moisture on Elvis's face It is not tears ..... { I know I sound funny when I talk ..... Lead-alone keep singing ..... Make no scene now that you think about it does it } ..... BUT BOY DOES HE SWEAT AND WHEN HE DOES SWEAT ..... SWEATS ..... NO TEARS COME FROM YOUR HAIR OR YOUR FOREHEAD IT IS SWEAT ..... WHEN HE SWEATS AS WITH ANYONE ..... IT Runs down YOUR FOREHEAD around his face around his eyes ..... Then down his cheeks and chin ..... Elvis sang songs with emotion BUT WAS NOT AN EMOTIONAL SINGER ..... He did not cry while singing songs ..... He recorded Exactly 769 songs ..... Elvis was the top professional ..... He sang all the songs with Emotion ..... Even old McDonald ..... He was NOT Emotional ..... Not any song ..... Not this one ..... Not that one either .....That one either ..... 'right not that one either ..... NONE ..... Anytime you read or hear he cried is gossip ..... Right - back - at - you ..... So see how aberration's can grow ..... Even if it's about Elvis ..... He didn't do it after his beloved mother died in public ..... I don't think or see anything Elvis saw more Precise than her ..... Do you ..... If you or anyone else thinks so .....Then you don't know Elvis ..... THEN YOU JUST DON"T KNOW ELVIS ..... No Brag ..... Just Fact .....

    Elvis was BIGGER than Michael. No one compared to him in his popularity and fan base. I think you're going to be very surprised once you delve into Elvis. He has been inducted into every major and many minor Halls of Fame. He's in all five major music halls of fame,c which no other artist is. His fan base goes from the very young to the very old, with new fans being born with every generation. His home is the most visited home in the U.S., second only to the White House. He's beloved worldwide 40+ years after his death. Michael, as talented as he was, didn't come close, although he's probably the closest second to Elvis.

  • @NOVEMBER5TH2024

    Categorically Elvis was much bigger, and he began the rock and roll. He started everything. When somebody walks up and says did you like Michael? They say Michael who?. But when somebody walks up and says did you like Elvis? Everyone knows who you're talking about. How many people can go around the world using their first name. And everyone knowing it. Not many
