    Show all the young people about Elvis!!! That was my prayer to God when Elvis passed away. Please don't let the world forget him. He was a gift from God to us. His twin brother that died at birth gave Elvis dual strength in life. God Bless Elvis Aaron Presley and Jesse Garron Presley.

    This song was aired on the 68 comeback special… what you watching the virtual Elvis with his TCB Band. They performed like he was there live…. It was done about 10 years ago… it was tribute..
    Notice everyone is older… but it's still the same guys…. Elvis on the screen and they performed like he was live…amazing

    Elvis Presley gave the world everything: his love, his money (an incredible number of donations), his art. Elvis once said: "I share everything I have with everyone. God gave me everything so that I can make people happy and help. I am convinced of that"!

    This song was a tribute to his good friend Martin Luther King who had been killed two months earlier. He asked his writers to come up with a song for him to sing at his upcoming TV concert. He scrapped the finale that was scheduled and sang this instead. He had to fight to do so.

    E P 25 was the 25th anniversary of his death I was at the gate on that night holding my candle !! The some of the photos were taken from opening night at the first showing of the giant screen that showed Elvis with his singers and band mates playing live with the crowd as if they were on tour !! It was a amazing experience to be there for his 25th anniversary of his death !! 😂 I have been a fan since 1956 and I was blessed to see him every time he was in Las Vegas 16 times !! The greatest entertainer ever 😇🙏‼️

    ELVIS PRESLEY could not help but pay tribute to the legendary activist Martin Luther King Jr in his 1968 Comeback Special with a truly heartwrenching song
    That was something that you failed to tell your brother in the audience where the inspiration came from to that song, and how he went against Colonel Tom Parker in performing it

    Elvis had this song written for him for this performance that took place a few months after the murder of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The song was inspired by Dr. King's "I have a dream" speech. Elvis thought we could all have this dream.

    A few months after his friend, Martin Luther King, Jr. was killed, Elvis had his songwriters write a tribute to Dr. King. They wrote If I Had a Dream so he could sing it on this television special. He meant every word in the song as you can tell by the heart and soul he displays.

    My sweet brother's, loved your reaction. Don't know if you know this or not, but Elvis loved MLK and his civil rights movement, was very sad when he was assassinated. He was supposed to sing a Christmas to close out that '68 Special. He insisted against his theiving manager to sing this one that was written for him. He felt it from his toenails up as you can see. EP was in no way racist. He grew up in a housing project where his family was one of only four families, the rest were black. The friends that he played with after school, were all black!! They called him E.P. for short. There is an interview of an older black gentleman who told that story. I am sure that he has passed on by now but the interview is still around.

    Old lady here. Just subscribed.
    I fell in love with Elvis when I was 2. I remember everytime my mother would play his albums, I would dance with tears running down my face. I don't know why, I guess he just touched something deep inside of me. I was 9 when he died and up to that point, I didn't really know what heartbreak and mourning was. I learned all too well, too fast.
    I enjoy watching another generation fall in love with him and I love your love and respect for each other.

    Awesome guys :))) That's an audience from just a few years ago watching his performance from '68 up on the a screen. So the sound of Elvis is very muffled. Please watch the actual recorded performance of the song. ;) Then you'll be able to hear his performance so much better.
