You can’t buy what Elvis had. He was just a baby here. He was born to be ELVIS.
My man Elvis beautiful inside and out always. Rest in peace and know you were loved
You can hear Elvis say "here we go" before he goes into the finale
This is the above the waist only time, but he still got a little in at the end.
What a man what a voice...
Well, obviously, a lot more people loved Elvis than hated him in the 1950s, or him and rock and roll would have fizzled out back then. But the genie was out of the bottle and Elvis just couldn't be stopped. Many people who didn't care for Elvis when he first started, later became big fans of his.
Even the backup singers couldn’t take their eyes off him ,Love Elvis
You chose the best and most revealing Elvis performance ever!!! He was the purest, happiest, real Elvis he would ever be, right there on the Ed Sullivan stage! May his memory be a blessing! Shabbat shalom!
Did you know that this song "Don't Be Cruel," still brings in over 50 million dollars a year? He was a phenomenon, and a Cool one.
Before Elvis singers stood at the mic and sang. Kids listened to the music that their parents listened to and dressed like them. Elvis came along wearing pink jackets and all sorts of colours and with a swagger and sneer and sexuality that they couldn’t cope with. And he did it all naturally and with a great sense of humour. There has never been anyone like him before or since.
You should see Sinatra's performances in his 20s... you should see Louis Prima... no. Folks were dancin' and sliding around stages for, oh, I suspect well before the 20th Century. Vaudevile was full of showmanship.
@@BuffaloC305 No comparison at all, Elvis was oozing with charm, magnetism and stage presence. Not to mention his good looks, voice, moves and sense of humor. He had everything as BB King, Mohammed Ali and others said in their interview, He was truly blessed cause he was also a good person who helped people in need even a total strangers.
This "Don't Be Cruel" performance was when he was shown only from the waist up at the Ed Sullivan Show because of complaints from some Christian groups. In his 50s concert in Florida he was ordered by the mayor and judge not to move his hips/legs or he will be arrested. What he did was wiggled his pinky and the girls still screamed, 😊 lol!
Right on.
The age of no auto-tune, nowhere to hide here. 👍
That's why I prefer this age of music or was so genuine and sponteneous ! Real voice, Real musical instruments
Elvis would turn 22 a week after this performance...He had the world on a string...Amazing !
Actually he turned 22 two days After as he was January 6th, Elvis was born the 8th day of the year .
Elvis...awesome sense of humor! Full of life! The charisma is poring out of him....girls screaming loud at the end! Thank you...you are an awesome reactor for Elvis! Keep it up...love it!
This is the night I fell in love with Elvis. I have never fallen out of love. Now I am 77. I was 13 then. Elvis was the first and the last for me and millions of his fans.
I was a sweet naive 14 year old when I went to the pictures and saw GI Blues, like you I fell in love immediately and the fantasy.
I'm 74 now and it never leaves you
From the UK.
This is the infamous "only from the waist up," performance. Elvis and everyone watching from the audience in the theater to the viewers at home which drew a huge audience but it worked out even better for him because he was turned a forbidden fruit and that added to his rating not detracted from them. However, Elvis was given a warning that they would cut the broadcast if he had started to do his moves. So Elvis waited to the last part of the song and then let loose. Also, this is where he added hand gestures and some facial expressions so the home viewers saw movement.
Elvis had swag before swag was a thing. POSSIBLE REACTION TO ELVIS: "IM ALL SHOOK UP"
I have always loved Elvis. If you haven't checked out Elvis on the Milton Berle show, you should and then find the interview where Milton talks about that appearance. Watch Elvis on Ed Sullivan singing Peace in the Valley and at the end listen to what Mr. Sullivan has to say
I once read a book about Charisma and the auther used Elvis as the prime example !!!
, Elvis is the goat the greatest of all-time the Entertainer of the 20th century he's in for music House of Pain rock and roll Rhythm and Blues Gospel and Country they only had a 22-year career just passed it h40 no 842 he's been gone 44 years MJ was good and I liked Prince if still not one with the charisma the stage presence his movements and that gorgeous gorgeous face to me he only got better with time even his voice got better in the early 50s or it was more rockabilly and then it came back from the Army he started really singing pure voice it was like a different man he still did rock and roll he still was the king and even in his final days when he was sick and especially when it was obvious to anyone his voice never faltered one-time not even that last performance where his bloated up because his heart was pumping enough fluid Everest bodies and his bodies were not enough to have killed him they were secondary I guess but the riddling is I guess massive coronary I'm not sure what word Savory used but think they don't deny that they found several different kinds all prescription drugs from his private doctor I wish his dad or someone with a 5 doctor neck last year so there he was touring like 15 nights straight in a row when he was in Vegas he did two shows on at 8 at night 1 at midnight on the weekends he done three shows on Saturday he made 31 movies all of this is 21 22 years something in that area you can look it up backtrack is passed around 1954 56 was too big I feel like they they worked him to death Colonel Tom did his agent who took 50% of his earnings the who does that AKA Elvis Junkie
Other songs of Elvis to listen to?...all of them!
At 66 it's pretty cool to look back at the beginning of it all.... Elvis was the perfect fusion of talent and charisma.....
Your reaction is the best! He was the best performer..... the King. Miss him still.
Yo swag.. Elvis was told this performance was only allowed to be screened from the waist up so the TV viewers didn't pass out seeing his gyrations they said he was to sexual that's the power he had.. That's unbelievable in 1957... Omg the guy was mesmerising he must have been like an alien to the public as they had never seen anything like him before
This performance is a gem..elvis is adorable and charisma that's out of this world!!!😍😍😍😍
His third and last performance on the Ed Sullivan show
This is the performance where he was told they would only film him from the chest up due to his previously "shocking" performance on this show. He was trying hard to break out of it to the best of his ability here but you can see how otherwise uncomfortable he is being forced to not be himself and to not move.
ELVIS is the KING...period. Grew up listening to him on the radio, my 45 records & the Ed Sullivan show.
NO ONE LIKE THE KING!
I love your reactions. Elvis was my first concert, I was 13, but I dressed like I was 21, lol. I used to dress my eldest son like him. My san is biracial, black hair, olive complexion, and green eyes. I taught him how to look and act like Elvis. I entered him in every Elvis contest, from 3yrs old to 14, and he won all but 2. He's 47 now, and in therapy, 😂
Wow! Had you dressed as a 13 year old Elvis may have hit on you. Priscilla was only 14 after all.
😄
Can’t get enough of Elvis !!!! Thank you !!
He was great. We was so good. He sneaked that end at the last. They could only show him from the waist up. Tee hee!
Did you notice he was filmed only from the waist up, such was the backlash against his leg movements at that time on prime time tv.
This is great , Elvis was the coolest guy i have ever seen. Thanks Swaggy great selection.
My oldest sister was 16 when this and Hound Dog came out and I can remember her and her friends going nuts over him listening to a 45 on. a record player. After his first Ed Sullivan show, Ed was POed by the moves and would not let the camera show him below the belt from then on.
They filmed him from the waist up because of the gyrating his hips! They called him vulgar for his dancing way
my my what would they say now? lol
@@teresaunderwood2632 it was 1957 and Elvis was a revolution in the music culture
Thank you for this reaction Swaggy 👌💯... can never go wrong with a Elvis tune or interview lol... he’s magic 🥰..
U give the best reactions.... Thank you for your appreciation of Elvis
At the end when he says "Here we go" and lets loose. Thats what we lived for! The networks banned cameras from shooting him from the waist down"
They wud not show below his waist when he was on tv in his earlier days. Too shocking. Lol.
Fr across the waters
Canada 🇨🇦
🐥🐥🐥hugs 2 ALL
I love that man
He was simply the most beautiful man on earth ❤️💋Exceptional talent 🙏🙌🙌
Awsome talent beautiful man
Elvis was gorgeous 💕
The existing Power hated Change and Elvis was that change.
So fun to watch. Thanks for posting
Awesome..just brilliant
Adults had tight sphincters in the 50s and they thought Elvis's movements were immoral. This was Elvis's 3red appearance on Sullivan. The first 2 were shot normally but they got angry calls from sponsors and viewers. What you just saw was their trying to control that by just shooting him from the waist up.
My mom seen the king 2 times 1956 1957 in Texas. I'm taking her to Graceland in April she's 80. Happy New Year my friend. TX
This was when they didn’t show him from the waist down. I would really have liked to see his moves for this!! ❤
The king.
Watch his hound dog performance on the Milton Berle show
1957 was before he went into the army. Another great one is Surrender if you haven't done it yet!!!!!
Loved your reaction! Elvis was something special.....
Elvis had so many hits .esp .the fifty. S
Did you notice they never showed his whole body because back in the day they considered his movements to be obscene. My mother had the honor of seeing him in concert 5 times. She always used to say...God was really showing off the day he created Elvis!
In this show he was shown only from the waist up cause of his vulgar moves lol check out his appearance on the Milton Berle show 1956 doing Hound dog make sure you get to see all of it see him move on that one only Elvis had so much swag I mean listen to those girls screaming thank you Swaggy be safe I love the tone of your voice 😊😷✌💋
Have to watch if I can dream.
He was the whole package
That song will always be 💯🔥
Oh WOW, this was recorded the day before Elvis" Birthday!
Excellent reaction. I love your enthusiasm for him and his music. Please react to the documentary Elvis Presley and The Black Community That Echo Will Never Die. I am sure you will find that very educational. Take care and stay safe.
You need to react to Trying to Get to you from the 1968 Comeback Special.
Yesssss!!!!
Listen to This time you gave me a Mountain
This song was from one of the movies that he starred in. That's why that mmmm happened to be in there.
Kentucky Rain....one of my favorites.
Wonderful Elvis you made me laugh love your reactions
love all of your reaction on ELVIS ! please do much more ! like - [ bossa nova ] & [ a little less conversation ] & [ why me lord ] & [ what'd i say ] & [ take my hand precious lord ] this one will touch your hear all the way to your soul ! tank you !
Love your reaction.
Love the man
Women often did toss underwear onstage, they also mobbed him a couple times and tore his clothes off in the early years - He was off the charts for Chrisma, charm, talent, voice, looks and as a showman
I saw this on TV with the folks when I was ten. Elvis and The Jordanaires. Elvis was never the same after his mother died and he went into the Army, He was a talented actor and could have had a film career versus a Vegas lounge act. GREAT REACTION!!
Great pick Swagg, great reaction my friend, Elvis was to days away from turning 22 on this video.
back then he was censored he was only filmed from the waist up. but he managed to cut loose,did`nt he!!
Elvis changed the performance a bit from the original studio recording --for the best. He tweaked it by borrowing from Jackie Wilson's take on the song --especially Jackie's pronunciation of TEL E PHONE.
I'm glad you were enjoying his performance. You might have let Ed Sullivan speak at the end though.
Dead right...he talks about it on The Million Dollar Quartet...he doesn't know it's JW at that time but just loves the way JW sings DBC...even says it's better than his version...I think JW was the singer in Billy Ward and the Dominoes and Elvis saw them in Vegas in 1956...I love TMDQ, it's pure history...listening to Elvis, Jerry Lee and Carl just chatting and jamming...and full of praise for the likes of JW and Chuck Berry...doncha just love it when he smiles after TELEPHONE, like it's his own private joke....and later he and Jackie became close friends.
@@davidsandz2186 They wee friends from the get-go. Jackie always treasured a photo of both of them together. Later when Jackie had to be sent to a convalescent home Elvis paid his bills every month.
I love that😂 You mimic what you like and im sure Jackie killed Don't be Cruel (in the good way of course). Two of my heros
If you haven't done Boss Nova you need to do that one. Its from a movie and he dances all through it!!!!!
It was mainly the older folks who hated him because they saw him as a threat to their conservative sensibilities
Enjoyed your reaction! The man at the end of the video is Ed Sullivan he had what they called a variety show and so many musical acts and other ex got their start on his show, the Jackson five with Michael Jackson were on his show when they first started out 🙂
Name one artist get away with saying telephone that way.🔥
The first censorship of rock. Ed Sullivan ordered that he filmed only from the waist up. 🤣🤣🤣
Reason why his backup singers sounded so good...... the Jordanaires were a Gospel Quartet. All thru Elvis life, he only had make & female gospel backup singers all his music
When singers actually sang live
You should react to some of his 1973 aloha from hawaii
LMAO Those women cheering...they just wanna tackle the guy... lol
I say shout out to you for a true that reaction, young Gentleman. If you want to check out the other Man of that time, watch Tom Jones, I'll Never Fall in Love Again. He made women lose their minds, too. Keep on.
Elvis went from wearing potato sack shirts to elementary school to here and being a multi millionaire before he was 21 by this time
Think about this back then a brand new Cadillac was less than $3000 that's three thousand dollars... and to be a millionaire
🔥🔥🔥😎
EEEVERY man in that audience was JUST LIKE US MAN!! They were like WTF!!!!??? And the women were like..... AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! Nobody could connect with an audience of females, and males like ELVIS PRESLEY did. HE WAS THE BEST AT IT. Michael Jackson and all the rest looked at these old videos of Elvis and had to create their own style but they ALL MODELED ELVIS.
This is when they filmed waist up but watch what he does at the end he fooled them
🥰🥰🥰 Have you done Polk Salad Annie yet? Fire!
Notice how there are no below the waistline camera shots.
You missed off the end bit of what Ed Sullivan said about Elvis !
This seems to be one of those where they refused to let the camera go down below his waist because there was too much pushback from mostly older white people. But yeah, it is always fascinating for me to see him as a Young Man. There's one that he does with Frank Sinatra or it's just a duet there's no dancing or anything but it's hilarious to see him so incredibly young up against the icon of the day which was Frank Sinatra and a lot of ways. It's a black and white clip and I guess they were both nervous to get together on the Frank Sinatra show but they paid Elvis money to have him come on since he was just starting to explode but once they get into it, you can tell there is immediate chemistry and it's pretty fascinating.
I love the way his music can transcend the racial divide. If we could only do that in all places. Right here shows it can be done, no color, just people.
that mmmm was in the song too, just not sure why it's even there in the first place
Could you please react to KING CREOLE and NEW ORLEANS both short songs from Elvis 4th film King Creole 1958. Maybe you can do a both together in one reaction
If you want to hear some good Elvis gospel listen to “god gave me a mountain” and “let it be me”
As Michael Jackson said : Otis Blackwell whom wrote this song Is not known because he was black. A Legendary song writer .
Any time he was on Ed Sullivan Show they showed him waist up because in the 1950s it was considered raunchy and vulgar to move on stage like he naturally did. But that was what his fans loved
Honey, you have NO idea what a chick magnet Elvis STILL is!
Back in the Day, Elvis's moves where considered 'inappropriate for some odd reason, lol. I wonder what Elvis would think of these moves we see now. I be he'd get a kick out of it.
Watch "a change of habit"
Elvis Presley knows that all these women are gray about him no matter what he does or saying on their the stage. He teased them. 😆
Blue Suade Shoes
If you could see his legs, he was censored for making suggestive movements with his pelvis. That is why it is so close up. That is why the girls are screaming. Elvis the pelvis was his nickname back then.
He wasn't being suggestive tho, he was dancing.
