“Before Elvis, there was nothing.” John Lennon
Elvis is the king of music
Watch “Trying to get to you” from Elvis’s 68 Comeback Special……Shows Elvis raw & powerful!
He was a great man, as well as a great entertainer. I recently came across a mini documentary called Elvis and the Black Community. To me it revealed his integrity & his willingness not to compromise his principles. No matter what it would cost him.
Definitely. And, with his comments on the dancing, I think he’d be taken aback by the comments from white people at the beginning.
Three of my favorites that really showcase Elvis’ great vocals are WHAT NOW MY LOVE, IT’S NOW OR NEVER, MY WAY
WE❤U ELVIS. ALWAYS & FOREVER.
Elvis Presley was the one who started the "Shaking of the hips." He was ahead of his time. My mom always loved Elvis. One of a kind by then.
John Lennon said;
before Elvis there was nothing
So every Rocksinger was influenced by him
Probably not as much as they were influenced by Chuck Berry but....
Yes John Travolta's character in Grease was modeled after Elvis. Greased Lightning was his version of Jailhouse Rock.
"Grease" came out in 1978 and was set in the late 1950s, hence the Elvis influence. The mid 1950s was when the rock 'n' roll era started.
Elvis and his still born twin brother Jesse were born to Vern and Gladys Presley, in a one room house in Tupelo Mississppi. Jesse was born first and as the doctor was leaving, Gladys yelled for the doctor to come back when she felt another baby coming. That baby was Elvis.
When he started making music he bought a house at 1034 Audubon Drive was Elvis Presley's first purchased house in Memphis, Tennessee, bought in 1956 for his parents with the royalties of “Heartbreak Hotel.” The King only lived there for thirteen months, but from May, 1956 to May, 1957 he became Elvis, at least the early Elvis as the world knows him.
Once he became famous and making even more money, that is when he bought Graceland in Memphis TN.
That’s crazy!
Elvis choreographed this scene. He was born in Tupelo Mississippi and moved to Memphis Tn when he was about 11. Stuck on You from Frank Sinatra welcomes Elvis home(from the Army). Suspicious Minds and Bridge Over Troubled Water from Las Vegas, any performances from the Ed Sullivan Show
He's been my fave since i was a kid growing up in the 70s. I would be scared at night while in bed hearing all sorts of noises, so to fall asleep I'd sing my fave Elvis songs to keep my mind preoccupied till i passed out. Ty Elvis. Rip
That’s dope‼️
Elvis influenced everyone who came after him, either directly or indirectly.
Elvis choreographed this video.
I love how the guards are dancing holding Billie clubs
The TV stations wouldn't even show him from his waist down because they thought it was "dirty" the way he danced!
G.O.A.T.
G.O.A.T.
G.O.A.T.
PERIOD...
Elvis the Pelvis..was Elvis! ❤
Elvis is from tuepolo Mississippi
"Grease" was based on the music and times of the mid 50s to the early 60s. Elvis emerged in 1954 and many teenage boys were influenced by him.
Elvis was born in Tupelo Mississippi then moved to Memphis Tennessee
This is probably his best dance routine from his movies
The young king of rock.
When Elvis was on Tv as a guest, the censors said he could only be shown from the waist up because his dancing was considered inappropriate.
That’s crazy!
One of the GOATS? No. For the whole field of rock, Elvis IS the GOAT...the rest are "one of the almosts"
And Grease took place in the 1950s but it was filmed in 1977. In fact, there is a scene where Rizzo sings "Elvis, Elvis, let me be--keep that pelvis far from me..." It was filmed, ironically, the day he died.
Elvis choreographed this at like 22 yrs old
What's he doing? The first dance moves with RnR ..on TV ever ❤🎉🎉🎉
He was born in Tupelo Mississippi on August 16, 1935. His mother gave birth to twins. However, his twin brother was stillborn. At the age of 7, he and his parents moved to Memphis Tennessee.
This video is from his movie Jailhouse Rock.
he was born the 8th January he died the 16th August
He was born January 8 1935.❤🙏
Elvis was entirely adopted as one of their own by the black community
Without Èlvis's musical contributions and dance moves, you wouldn't have the dances out there today. He changed the musical world for teenagers!! Would like to recommend you watch and review Mean Woman Blues from the Loving You movie and Trouble from King Creole. Two different styles from Elvis... of course there are many to choose from besides these two... If I Can Dream, Suspicious Minds, Bridge Over Troubled Water, In the Ghetto, Polk Salad Annie... just to name a few. Elvis is worth listening to... he was a Legendary performer and his name will live on forever!!
Elvis rocked for sure and I'm so happy I was there at the beginning. Did you notice the instruments in the video are cardboard? Thanks for the reaction. ⚡🎶
I didn’t even realize that till you mentioned it!
Really fantastic reaction. Usually I wait for a few reactions before I subscribe but you earned my sub first time out.
Always try to select the live version of Elvis. If you can’t find live versions, try to get a movie version.
I would shoot up to 1968 the song “if I can dream. “
Elvis was a huge proponent of the civil rights movement. This was during the race riots of the 1960s.
Look for a live version of this song, with Elvis Presley performing in a white suit .
Thank you! I'll definitely check that out.
Really? Starting with Elvis in 1968 and ignoring the most profound part of the greatest success in modern musical history?
Elvis didn`t change the world in 1968.
@@lechat8533 Elvis helped many in a mourning nation. Many many people were grieving for the loss of two Kennedys and or Dr Martin Luther King, and other political or religious leaders that were publicly assassinated. Then you had the Vietnam war tearing young people apart. Elvis spoke through this song, and the words that he sang sadly still ring through today. Elvis gave a lot of money to the civil rights movement behind the scenes. He also hired black musicians and paid them an excellent wage, which is something that just wasn’t done back then. So yes, he absolutely changed United States of America and the world 🌎
💋❤️🌹LAY IT ON ME DADDYO!🌹❤️💋
You just watched the very first music video ..... And possibly the very first hand slide hand shake too { 2;13 through 2:16 on the time maker }...... Elvis recorded exactly 769 Songs ...... Did 31 Movies ..... Did 2 Documentaries ...... And exactly 938 live concerts ..... One of those concerts had 11/2 Billion {with a b} watch him live ..... I was one of them } ...... Through satellite Called ...... {Aloha From Hawaii} ..... That actually had the show itself and the night before the rehearsal show ..... {{ In-case the show did not go off right }} ..... Satellite recorded in Hawaii in 1973 ..... Elvis influenced the whole world ..... ABSOLUTELY ..... There was no Industry of music before Elvis .... And he is not one of the G.O.A.T 'S ....... He is the only G.O.A.T. ..... As that means ..... {The Greatest Of All Time } ..... No-One had it all but Elvis ..... No-One comes close ...... You can fight it ..... Cuss it ..... Argue it .... Reject it ..... Hell .... You can claim someone his better or equal if you want ...... But every time the dust settles ...... Elvis is still King ...... No brag ..... Just Fact ......
🐐
When he performed on TV they would not show his hips or legs. He was considered obscene by the "Bertha better than you" crowd. (Bertha is from Ray Stevens - Mississippi Squirrel Revival.)
Damn that’s crazy!
Like your style and great insights. Elvis has sold over 1 Billion recordings. And still selling.Guinness lists him the Most Successful Solo Recording Artist ever. His Worldwide Satellite Concert in 1973 was seen in 40 nations 2 Billion viewers.
Try 1970 Suspicious Minds, Bridge Over Troubled Waters, American Trilogy (1973) and 1970 Love Me Tender live.
Subscribed and liked you Nat. God Bless kiddo. Oh, In the Ghetto (Elvis was FROM the ghetto BTW) 1970 and Can’t Help Falling in Love 68 comeback special. It had been 9 years since he performed before a live audience.
Thank you 🤝🏽 I’ll be happy to check them out!
Elvis learned those moves from Forest Gump.
I did see that part in the movie lol
Before Michael Jackson there was Elvis
like you to see. I got a feeling in my body. It is a video of M Jackson & Elvis.
Check out his 1968 Comeback Special he was in his prime.
You really need to watch the concert version of Elvis singing In the Ghetto.
Those hips wiggling is what made more TV stations when he was on not allowed to film him below the waist.
Grease was in the 80's ...also Grease is the Word :)
Well I just subscribed for the hell of it but at any rate, yeah it's quite the phenomenon it's quite the story. It's hard to even know where to go next. My instinct is that you should go even earlier back to like 1956 with the Milton Berle show where he did hound dog and set off this racist and religious firestorm. But there are so many and he was 20 or 21 around that time and then there's fantastic stuff of him when he's much older than like 1970 in Vegas finally, doing things like bridge over troubled water, great singing, or suspicious minds, it shows you how he just devastated the whole idea of fucking with the audience and your band members and vice versa and just having a good time in a live setting with no nothing.
Yeah Grease was set in 50s
THE INSTRUMENTS ARE CARDBOARD! EVERYONE'S EYES ARE ON ELVIS SO YOU DON'T NOTICE! ❤
Please react to Elvis's "In The Ghetto"!
Never seen your Generation Dancing Not to much dancing in Rap !
He learned this from Forest Gump 😂
Watch 68 comeback tour
They are all dressed alike because they are supposed to be prisoners.
He was banned from many tv shows and concert because he moved his hips! No one had done that in public before him. At least not a singer.
This song is very much influenced by big band "swing" music. Grease was set in the 60s.
Elvis did movies, didn't like the dance sequence he was supposed to do here. Choreographed this one himself. If you want to know where he learned some dance moves? Watch Forrest Gump the Movie.
Watch Forrest Gump!
The funniest part is: when Elvis first wiggled his hips on camera, they only filmed him from the waist up!! I know it sounds strange to these predominantly sexual generations now, but it was judged to show Elvis gyrations as too sexual!!
Watch cry baby with Johnny depp
They would only show Elvis from the chest up. It was against the grain for the way he’s dancing. Grease was set in the time frame of the 50’s and all the kids actually dressed like what you seen in Grease (poodle skirts, leather jackets, chino’s, penny loafers).
You see, before Elvis, nobody moved. They just stood and sang. Elvis had so much rhythm he couldn't stand still. THANK YOU!
Black people moved. They’ve been moving since the beginning of their existence. Elvis learned from them in Tupelo then Memphis.
@@dianefiske-foy4717 absolutely
@@thomastimlin1724 … 👍🏻!
Ever hear of Cab Calloway? Check out what he was doing in the 1930s. MJ learned some moves from Cab.
@@netzahuacoyotl … I’ve heard of him and seen videos of him.
No one can teach you how to dance like that. You already have it or you don't.
That little wiggle my friend changed the world of music forever……enjoy!
I can definitely see how that did!
Elvis influenced generations- but the movie “Grease” was just a nostalgic movie about the 1950s (when Elvis started). He died in 1977 from a heart attack. You should react to one of his later songs - try Elvis 1970 Live in Las Vegas: “Suspicious Minds”.
You to react to If I Can Dream from his 68 special with the white suit it's a very powerful song. He did that for MARTIN LUTHER KING because he was. killed and the World was in so much turmoil. The words to this song still holds true today. GOD BLESS EVERYONE🙏🙏🙏😇😇😇❤️❤️❤️🎶🎶🎶❤️🎵🎵🎤🎤🎤💙💙💙

Here is the link to this song 😊
I'm sorry young bro, Elvis is not one of the goats, Elvis is THE GOAT 👍
Elvis was born in Mississippi and moved to Memphis Tennessee, when he was around 12,and lived in the housing.
Thank you for the insight!
@@NatReacts_Elvis family was so poor in MS that when they moved to the projects of Memphis it was a step up.
From an old Elvis fan, it's exciting to see a young person discover him for the first time. He recorded over 700 songs in all different genres and often fused several genres together. He grew up very poor and never had any formal musical training. Everything he did was by ear.
A couple suggestions:
Elvis Presley - Trouble/Guitar Man (Opening) ('68 Comeback Special) (3:18)
Elvis Presley - What Now My Love - Rehearsal Concert in Hawaii January 12, 1973 (3:10)
No one like Elvis, he's one of kind. I love him forever ❤️❤️❤️
Elvis was a groundbreaking performer. Tv stations wouldn’t show him from the waist down because they considered his moves pornography and thought it would make everyone jump into bed and lots of unplanned babies would incur.
Moving/dancing like the king was outlawed in certain cities back then. This was considered phonographic gyrations back then.
Damn that’s crazy!
His first tv appearance they refused to film him below the waist. It was too vulgar for television! 😊
I just found your channel and subscribed i saw you reacting to elvis love seeing your generation going down the elvis rabbit
His gospel music is my favorite how great tho art,
Check out american triology
If i can dream
In the ghetto
Suspicious minds from the live las vegas version you wont be disappointed
Thank you and will do!
First ever music video, bruh...he does the toe stand and side moonwalk right here 🤘🏽💯⚡❤️
I love elvis❤.
Elvis wasn't one of the goats. He is the GOAT. He has sold over one billion+ records. He had over 800 recordings and he is still going strong today which is nearly 47 years after his death. No matter what you play of Elvis' it's going to be good.
All true
Most of his catalogue were covers like Whitney's..
But he's the first ❤
Please react to more Elvis, his songs are Golden
Try some of his Gospel songs. Elvis could sing every genre of music: Gospel, Rock'n'Roll, Rock, Rock-a-Billy, Blues, Country. But his Gospel songs are outstanding.
"How Great Thou Art", "Peace in the valley", "Stand by me", "Take my hand, precious Lord",...
The Gospel production number from the "'68 Comeback Special" is great.
Elvis was the king
This video your watching highly influenced Michael Jackson.
Watch Elvis and the Black Community, then listen and watch every video you can of this dude from his early tv shows, his movies, the 68' Comeback Special and his Vegas shows.
I SUBSCRIBED CAUSE I SEEN ELVIS I REALLY THINK U SHOULD REACT TO HIS SONG IF I CAN DREAM A TRIBUTE TO MARTIN LUTHER KING IT REALLY EFFECTED ELVIS WHEN HE GOT KILLED AND ALSO ELVIS AND THE BLACK COMMUNITY PART 1 AND 2 THANKS FOR REACTING TO ELVIS HE'S THE BEST FOREVER!
Thank you, I will definitely check it out🤝🏽
You talk about his dancing when he was on the ed Sullivan show in the middle 50s on TV they wouldn't show him from the waist down
THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS❤️ Elvis inspires you to be a better human being❤️ You bring me and other Elvisfans a lot of Joy and Love❤️ Welcome to the Elvisfamily..It is filled with LOVE and FUN❤️😉
Thank you!
No one better than this guy. You've reached the pinnacle. You might as well stay right here. You will never see a better artist.
Subscribed for Elvis please keep going down the Elvis rabbit hole you will never be disappointed you will always be amazed.
Who said the younger generation dances funny? Ive never heard anyone say that. He was the first to move at all on stage so every performer you see today can thank him for that.
The thing with Elvis is he danced different to every performance. All through his Career.
That’s crazy!
If you go down the Elvis rabbit hole, you will never come out. His catalog is amazing he only gets bigger with time.
Elvis influenced everybody.
Elvis always the best, beautiful generous soul
Elvis lived in Memphis Tn but was born in Mississippi. He had a close relationship with blues and gospel music. He is and will always be the "King of rock and roll" . keep diving in you wont be sorry.
This clip from Elvis movie Jail house rock. The dance moves were his but the whole scene was choreographed around him. He was the first, the original. Thank you for your reaction and do more Elvis. As a long time Elvis fan I love watching how the younger generations react to seeing him for the first time. To understand what an icon Elvis is you have to start at the beginning when he appeared in 1956 on TV. Before he went into the Army in 1958 he was already a super star. Check out documentaries, movies, 1968 Come back special, Aloha from Hawaii, 1970 Los Vegas. You will be amazed by huge legacy Elvis left us.
Never dislocated his pelvis. Miraculous.
Thank you young man for your reaction.Elvis, is The G.O.A.T. ☝👍👊🔥🕺🎸🎤🥁🎼⭐🇵🇷🇺🇲❤🙏
It's funny because I had my first girlfriend when I was in the summer after my 9th grade and she was a year older and in the next grade up but we had a lot of good times and yeah. Grease with Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta, and that definitely was the mid-to-late 70s so at this point easily a decade and a half after Elvis doing his bit in one of his first movies.
But this is totally movie type choreography. And it is true that Elvis couldn't stand it and did his own thing in terms of choreography compared to everyone else, but this doesn't give you even the remotest idea of how intense he was just even a few years earlier at the age of 20 and 21. He was doing athletic stuff that still defies the imagination. Original Moonwalks and all kinds of stuff.
You got it right. "Grease" was inspired from the 1950's decade as well as the way Elvis dressed with his hairstyle. On top of this, the entire video seen here influence the movie scene in "Grease" song "Grease Lightning".
Also, Elvis caught a lot of heat from the establishment; they were so afraid of his moving his hips, etc and the effect it would have on the girls
Born in Tupelo Mississippi- check out his 68 come back soecial
He had a twin brother who died when they were born.
In the 70s the 50s music and lifestyle got a big revival in USA. You see it in the cars, music , and the movies.movies like "The wanderer", "The lors of flatbush" , "Greese" etc.
Understand that Elvis was heavily influenced by black jazz musicians and singers. Listen to his version of "Hound dog" and then look up Big Momma Thornton's version.
You have to remember that America was so conservative back then that, when he first appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show (THE #1 variety show of the era), they refused to allow the cameras to show him from the waist down because his gyrations were considered too suggestive.
