      Loved your reaction very much Elvis was the best friend i ever had in my entire life. we met when i was very young but our friendship lasted past that one day in time. 10 yrs to be exact up until his death i asked nothing of him he asked nothing from me except friendship without Elvis i don't know where i would be today. 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 love from Memphis Tn.

    Elvis was my idol when I was growing up & he was a true role model. I know that “towards the end” he kind of fell off the rails somewhat but lord almighty... When he stood onstage & had the spotlight focused squarely on him, he COMMANDED attention & more often than not, got it. Sure, he had his share of “haters” (don’t we all?), but for those who will always love & idolise him & his music, he will forever be the 1 & only KING ✊️👑... LONG LIVE THE KING!!! 👑👑👑

      That's a very sad statement if your human you cant NOT know what everyone is going through. The problem isn't not knowing its not giving a damn. If you truly care about anyone else ask them what the problem is and then stick around to hear the answer most give lip service and pretend to care because it makes them look good in the eyes of the world but in reality they dont really care and they dont really want to hear it.... so the world goes to shit and people really have the nerve to ask why well that's just bull shit and everyone knows its bull shit too but nobody says anything because everyone's doing the same thing and no one wants to be shown as a shallow a hole so they never expose anyone else who's doing it either. This is why we are where we are and exactly why we will never be anything more or better then we are right now and that's a vary sad thing for the whole of humanity were a sorry lot we are aren't we. It makes us all want to throw the covers over our heads and pray we die in our sleep... or is that just me?

      I got to see Elvis in 1976, he was even better in person, if you can imagine that! He was sick looking and overweight but when he opened his mouth to sing there was no mistaking what a genius he was, my Mom used to watch him play basketball at the YWCA in Memphis back in about 1955, she didn’t care for him because she was just a young girl (17) who grew up on a farm in Arkansas during the Great Depression. He had a reputation for being “different” because he sang and danced like a black man and drove all the white girls crazy and that scared the conservative parents of the 50s, she’s 83 now and I’m enjoying her stories from her youth more and more. You’re a good decent and kind man Jamal, we could use a few more like you.

Your words about him and seeing his joyful sounds even in songs of sorrow we were graced to have seen him, for me while he was alive. For others going backwards. I remember my sisters fiancee was in a grunge band and one of their guitarists was huge into Elvis. I recorded videos for him to see and he was saying at one point I am a man and only want to be with my gf. But if Elvis was there in my room theres nothing we wouldn't do because he was Elvis.

    "Be kind because everyone you meet is going through the some kind of struggle. People complain about things that won't matter 5 years from now, never the difficulty people actually face in life. Jamel since you are a HUGE Elvis fan, you should visit Memphis and The Guest House At Graceland just a short walk from Graceland. It's finally open!😁~APRIL LIPKE

    August 16, 1977...I was 11 years old on vacation with my family when we heard the awful news on the radio. Dad packed all 6 of us in the station wagon and we drove 4 hours home. We were in disbelief and vacation was cut short. 44 years ago and I still remember it like it was today.

      @@philly4life the news put us in a somber mood. Nobody wanted to have fun, it was like losing a member of the family. We were in mourning.

    The preamble that Elvis quoted a part from was composed by Hank Williams Sr. Hank recorded it in 1950 and it was released the following year. The recording was a recitation. It was entitled "Men With Broken Hearts" and done under the pseudonym of "Luke The Drifter." You should check it out sometime. Johnny Cash did it very nicely.

    The February’70 version of this is equally stunning. Elvis made a great message song cool . He used to go straight into In the Ghetto after this.
