    I saw Elvis is concert on September 2, 1976, in Tampa, FL. Second row, center. I got the last scarf of the night as he sang “Can’t Help Falling In Love,” always the last song. I would’ve never believed he would die within a year. I’ll never forget that day. My sister called me at work. I was in shock and cried for days. Somewhere in the sea of flowers sent from all over the world was an arrangement from me. I’ve loved Elvis since I was five years old … he was my imaginary friend. I’m 64 years old and still love him as much, if not more, now. I was 19 when he died. There will never be another Elvis. Not just the handsome, charismatic entertainer with a golden voice … but the man.

    I was sitting in the chair peeling potatoes and watching TV. My son was 3. He was on a blanket playing with toys. My best friend lived downstairs from me in an apartment complex. The words came across the bottom of the screen before any news broke in. I read it and dropped the potatoes in the floor. I jumped up and ran outside at the same time my best friend ran out and we started crying and saying it can't be true it can't be true. She came up to my apartment and we watched it together when the news interrupted and said he was dead. I don't even know how long we cried. I live in Tennessee about two hours from Memphis. The next week or so the whole State was PACKED with people from all over the world. Every hotel or motel was full and people were even letting folks stay with them everywhere. It was one of those times when the whole world had a broken heart. 💔

    I remember watching the news and they were thousands upon thousands of people in the streets all over the world, in Japan, Germany, England, France, Italy, Argentina, Mexico and other countries I can't remember now.. It was incredible how he was adored around the world and never performed outside the US even though he wanted to. It was said that to this day more flowers were bought from florists then anytime in history the day after he passed. It's kind of funny, Elvis said, he didn't think he would be remembered after he was gone. Wow, was he wrong. God bless you Girl.

    I was driving to an attorney’s office to pick up the divorce papers for my brother and sister-in-law. I was listening to the radio and when the announcer came on and he said he had some news about Elvis. I got all excited and rushed into the office as they had gone to commercial and rushed back out just in time to hear him say that Elvis passed away. I was devastated and cried so hard I could barely drive home. I was 20 at the time.

    Billy Graham once said that Elvis is singing to the angels. It took me a long time to watch his last concert because it hurt to much.

    I was a teenager. I bought a whistle that day. At 3 AM, my dad suggested I go outside and blow that whistle. All the lights were still on. Everyone was listening to the radio after all the late night Special Reports on TV. I didn't wake anyone up. This was in Atlanta - Decatur.
    I never did stop crying. A doomed young man met his end. 😢 Like a Greek Tragedy.
    No. They didn't play this song at his funeral. But, it's about him. He knew that. A poor kid goes off to the bright lights in the the Big City. And finally returns - "you finally got your dream." A fancy car all the town to see.

So us 6 kids were raised on Elvis. When he died, it was like losing a extremely close family member. We cried for a long time. We just couldn't believe he was gone. 😭💔😭💔😭💔😭 It's still hard when the anniversary of his passing comes around every year.

    Elvis was the best friend i ever had in my entire life. we met when i was 17 yrs old. I won a radio show contest and the prize was a day with Elvis but our friendship lasted past that one day in time. All the memories of my friend are tucked safe in my heart forever. dancing and singing breaks my heart because i know he is not here anymore my mind understands but my heart never will, i saw him a few weeks before he passed we had a short conversation which i will never share again because people are so nasty and comment hurtful heart breaking things they do not know me but they still can't keep their mouths closed about things they know nothing about. I walk past Graceland everyday. The last time i saw my friend was in that damn casket my heart will be forever broken.

    That was footage from his actual funeral when he died. That's Elvis in that car. Long Black Limousine was simply about a small town boy and a small town girl that said she was going to go out and make it big time but someday she'd come back and it broke his heart when he lost her oh, but she kept her promise because now she's back but she's riding in a Long Black Limousine. Because she's dead.

    I was 11 years old. I had a saving box to collect money to go to America and see him in concert. I planned that once I start work I will put all my money together and go. The morning of 16th August (in the UK) my mum got a phone call. Said to me that he had died. I didn't believe it but I turned on the radio. "I Just Can't Help Believin" was playing. I don't remember any more but my mum says that I slumped down beside the radio and stared at the floor in shock. I started work in 1983 and the next year I flew to Memphis.

    I was 22 when he died & I was a Nurse in a hospital. Word spread through because they had breaking news on all the TV stations and radio. I had. To keep working for another hour so I just pretended it was a rumor. I knew he was only 42. When I got home& turned on the TV, it was all over on every channel. It was like the world stopped. He was so iconic and known internationally that everyone was shocked. There was no internet at that time and so news was a bit slower until you got to a radio or TV. It was one of the biggest funerals I’d ever seen. The only person that received more flowers then he was JFK , our President. It was sad indeed & I believe people want that beautiful talent and man to be alive so much to this day that all kinds of rumors started up. But he was gone... but he left us a beautiful legacy and not only a unique golden voice but he was so emotive when he sang that it just reaches your soul. Thanks for the reaction video. Stay safe. God bless. 👍🏻👍🏻🥲🥲

So he grew up aspiring to be good I like Elvis. I remember both of my parents and their friends crying that night, candles lit and Elvis music playing.

    I know yes since you asked, I was a welder in Holly Michigan I was 18 years old and I have been an Elvis Presley fan before I was even born that guy was my world when it came to music and still is for that matter, but the day that news came over the radio and picture of this if you can, me and about four other guys we're sitting out in my car at lunch time and we were all having a good time as we were all sitting out in the car burning one the radio turned up and yucking it up before we had to go back in. we were all sitting in my Camaro jamming to whatever song was on the radio and all the sudden the radio went silent, I thought something was wrong with my radio, no one in my car was much of an Elvis fan and never had being or so they thought. When the DJ finally spoke he could hardly utter the words that Elvis Presley had just being pronounced dead, but he said I can't believe I'm even saying these words but Elvis Presley has just died. There were no more Smiles in a car only complete shock to everyone in the car and you could have heard a pin drop. I had to get out of the car because I physically got sick to my stomach I couldn't process it. As all of us went to walk back into the shop nobody said a word and when we walked in there I was completely floored because nobody was smiling or laughing or talking about anyting it was dead silence it was like everyone's dad just suddenly up and died and pulled the world right out from underneath their feet. Until then I never really knew how many people actually loved that guy but never said a word and didn't listen to his music hardly at all but when they realize that such an icon had just died all the beautiful songs he sang finally came rushing through their minds and they realized what the world had just lost what they had just lost. I for one couldn't even work the last 3 hours I left I went straight to the bar and it was more like walking into a funeral home. One hot ass day in August I will never forget. I had already saw him five times in concert just to put things into perspective.

I hadn't been following him because I was into rod Stewart at that time but hearing that my first love had passed was shocking. The world stopped spinning. His death was so monumental that the news lead with it. Nowadays that's not a big deal with the 24 hour news cycle but back then the lead story was always the most important event. He was the first celebrity to pass and have it be the biggest story in the country and probably the world

    Elvis was my first concert in 1972 ..... I cried like a baby in side of of Sears store trying on clothes for the new school year . My mom had to buy the outfit I had on to get me out of the store . My aunts and nanny went to his funeral, they said it was so hot that day and stood on side of street for hours . Several people had to be taken to the hospital due to heat exhaustion. August 17th, 1977, the day after "the King of Rock and Roll" died, set the record for most flowers sold in the US on a single day. By that afternoon every florist in Memphis had ran out of flowers . They where shipping flowers from all over the world that day ....

    I was 16 at the time living in South Brooklyn on that fateful day..I heard the tragic news from a friend listening to music on a small radio. I only knew of Elvis’s from a few movies and that 1973 TV aired Aloha concert that I watched with my parents as an 11 year old...I had no idea of the magnitude he had at that time...and this is when I’ve learned all about him and delved into his music and I’ve been an avid Elvis fan ever since.

    "James Brown, Elvis's best friend, cried like a baby! Along with Priscilla, they cried all day long at Graceland while greeting a select few guests! James Brown, like Babe Ruth at Lou Gehrig's wake, never got over Elvis's death until his own, tears, tears, tears!!" 😢😮❤😭😘🥰😍🤩😪😝😜😔🥺😬🤐🤔🤫🤭😱🤨😒🙄😢☹️😟😞😯😲😨😇😣😩😫🙀😿😾😻🖤💓🖤💗🖤💗🖤💗❤️👼💐🌼🌻🌞🌝🌚🌜🌛⭐🌟✨💫

    This is a great song of his. So is “Tomorrow Never Comes” and “After loving You”. They’re from the same time period as this song. In fact, I do believe I had an album of his back in the 70’s who all three songs on it called THE NASHVILLE SESSION (OR SESSIONS).

    I too was devastated over Aaliyah. Such a talent. Too young. Tragic.
    I was a little kid when Elvis died but I instinctively knew this was a big deal. I remember feeling sad even though I didn't really know why.
    But even in England, it was a big deal. I think UA-cam has some of the news reports from that day. The older I get, the sadder I get about Elvis' death. I just feel that things could, and should, have been different. In the last years, he was definitely sef-medicating due to depression, in my opinion. But he was from a place and time where admitting you needed help just wasn't the done thing. And now his daughter Lisa Marie has also lost her son, his grandson, to depression. It's all too sad.
    Been a while since I heard this version of Long Black Limousine. I like it. Another wonderful, warm reaction from you.

    I was 16 years old when Elvis died. My girl friend called me ,, it was August 16,1977,, she called on the phone and told me Elvis died,, I didn’t believe it,, I turned on the TV and it was on,, I cried like a baby for a week, I cried,, it’s so hard to believe he’s been gone so long. I love Elvis and I love watch the effect he still has on people,, it’s a joy to see the happiness he brings to people .

    I was 15 and heard the news Elvis had died. I thought it was just a rumor that started from somewhere. Then watched it on the news and realized it was real. I was shocked and to this day it still is a hard pill to swallow. Elvis had it all...the world! But believe it or not...He was a lonely guy! Really sad...😕

      I was 20 years old when Elvis died. I was in the Army at Fort Benning, Ga. It felt like a family member had died. I was alone in my room and I cried like a baby. I am Black and for so many years I could not acknowledge my love for Elvis. My father said he was racist. I felt in my heart he was wrong.

    I was 18 years old when Elvis died in 1977.
    The news of his death didn’t hit me with as much of a shock as it would have hadn’t one of my best friends been killed in a motorcycle crash just before.
    My girlfriend at the time was in a terrible shock about the crash and so I had been at her (and her parents’) house outside of town.
    My dad had offered to drive through snd collect me. On the way back in the car he told me that Elvis had just died. Because of the shock of my friend having died, all I could say was “Did he?”. I was surprised to hear it but I was too otherwise traumatised to react with much actual shock.
    I visited Graceland a year or so later and then again a few years after that. The house hadn’t yet been opened up to the public... only the grounds and graves etc.
