"inadequate Words!" Can describe the Emotions invoked from Elvis Song!"
Elvis is simply the best that's ever been or will b e
That voice though……Awe…That’s velvet.♥️
No singer compares or will ever compare to Elvis.
If you would like to see Elvis and Sinatra singing together; search for Elvis "Welcome Home" something like that. Hearing the King singing "Witchcraft" is still one of my favorite Elvis songs--- ever!
The REHEARSAL SHOW WAS a legit dress rehearsal for the first concert ever broadcast around the world, and they PACKED THE HOUSE to the GILLS. Noone knew HOW LARGE a venue it would take for Elvis to fail to sell out. Never had an empty seat. I imagine the largest stadium in the World, Narendra Modi Stadium with a capacity of 132,000, would sell out in one day (a few hours if that) if Elvis had performed there. And Elvis donated ALL proceeds to the Kui Lee Cancer Fund for a doctor at the University of Hawaii doing cancer research. Kui Lee was a legendary songwriter who died of cancer at 34. In the TV concert, Elvis sang Kui's most famous tune - 'I'll Remember You', to billions (with a B) of global viewers. Thanks to Elvis everyone got in for free and he raised $75,000 from the gate. The audience was allowed in via their own contributions. Some kids saw the show for only 10 cents. Next day, Elvis took out full-page newspaper ads thanking Hawaii'.
My grandfather took me to see Elvis 2 years I believe before he passed!!! He gave a beautiful performance and one I would never forget
Wonderful reaction. They did let people in to watch the rehearsal and since it was a charity concert, they were asked to donate whatever they wanted, just like the actual concert. They raised $75,000 for the cancer fund.
Elvis picked each and everyone that was stage with him. Everyone.
Frank talked it ,Elvis sang it the vocals say it with me WOW ❤❤❤❤!!!
People (45 years after he's gone) still call Elvis King of Rock'n roll, but he did not like that, he considerd that the only King was God, but I consider him to be the King of Music, but what do you think, is he good enough to be called a Music King?
Here are some of his Gospel songs:
Amazing Graze, Take me home precious lord, How great though art, You'll never walk alone, You gave me a mountin, Crying in the chapel, Why me Lord (written by Kris Kristofferson), Unchained melody, I'm not sure if it's a gospel song but Walk a mile in my shoes and many more...
.
If you prefer ballad songs then look at these:
My Way, Suspicius minds, In the Ghetto (written by Mac Davies), Memories (written by Mac Davies), If I can dream that is a tribute (parts of it is taken directly from the I can dream speach by MLK) to Martin Luther King JR and senator Robert Kennedy, What now my love, Walk a mile in my shoes (listen to the words in the beginning), Welcome to my world, Make The World Go Away, Bridge Over Troubled Water, An American Thrillergy, Hurt, Sweet Caroline, Just Pretend, What now my love, Are you lonesome tonight (laughing versin, or not), Oh Danny Boy (for you Irish people), a song that many might not know that he sung it is this one Yellow rose of Texas, well remember that he sang over 700 songs...
There are some videos of when Elvis joking and messing up, he loved to joke around and pretend that he did not have control, but he had total control, he acctually conducted his musicans and back up choirs all the time !!
He is the only person to have 2 records gone to sell Gold and 2 to to sell Platinum since he died.
Elvis is also in almost every genre of Music Hall of Fame (5 that I'm sure of), no one else is in more then perhaps 2.
Not bad for someone who never took a single singing lesson, yes he sang in church so perhaps he learned a little there, right?
.
Something else that people tend to overlook:
He always conducts his musicans and backup singers, he never gets credit for being able to do that...
Then imagen you are a singer, you have great musicans, you have great backup singers, no Guest Artists, no Autotune, no Lipsinging and no Fireworks, now all is about your skill, could you handle that pressure?
That is what Elvis did in over 1000 concerts, despite having problems with his health, like his Glaucoma, the headlights must have hurt his eyes like crazy...
He sang over 700 songs, I wonder how he could remember them all, he never vrote a song himself, so he had to remember other peoples songs, well that in it self is amazing in it self...
By the way he had Glucomea and that must have been difficult being in the headlights all the time, that could be why he sometimes closes his eyes, but also sometimes squinting !!
Elvis suits was made of 100% Polyester, or 100 cotton (I'm not sure witch one), it was originally a karate suit, it was very light, but it was hot, so it made him sweat a lot, he got some bad press about that, but if you give it all then you will sweat, it should be positive, right?
About the deep basevoice JD Sumner (a member of The Stamps Quartet) is the Basso Profundo, I think that it's called that, it is the deepest base singer there is...
About him helping others, look at this: ua-cam.com/video/CrJ1c9tm-C0/v-deo.html
Elvis made a show where all the money went to build the Memorial after Pearl Harbour, He talked to the nations about taking the Poliovaccin, Elvis took the first injection himself and he helped to start St Jude hospital against cancer, he also gave away juwelery, gave away cars, gave away houses to total strangers...
He also have a own organisation that helps people get out of Homelessness...
A thing that perhaps you did not know: Elvis NEVER had a show OUTSIDE OF USA, NOT EVEN 1 !!!
Video of Mohammad Ali speech after Elvis died:
ua-cam.com/video/PO8Kq_3KTyI/v-deo.html
I have to say that I loved being at Graceland and seeing his home, first we were at the house in Tupelo where he lived in his early years, he was born there!!!
You don't have a guide taking you on a tour, you can go all over yourself, but stay outside of the ropes and do not attempt to go upstairs, the outside is huge, so is the house, but you don't realise that from the front of the house...
I don't regret for a second that I was there, or that I stood at his grave site and said out loud that this is for the humanitarian Elvis/person/man and then I gave him a military salute, the others there just looked at me and asked if I didn't like his music.
So I told them that he was clearly one of the best singers and artists ever, but I loved his big heart more, he helped so many people without getting credit for it, he didn't want the credit of helping others, he did it out of love and respect and to me that is what true charity is all about…
This PLACE (GRACELAND) should be a protected part of music history and also American history forever, I think that people will keep coming for years and years and years to come !!
Elvis did lots of things for America to, he helped to avoid getting Polio (he took the vaccin in a tv show that made the intrest for taking the vaccin go from 5 % to 80 % in a few days), he helped to defeat Cancer with helping to build St Judes, he helped to build the Memorial over Pearl Harbour and many other things !!!
The official concert version he steps it up again, and the last verse is the work of God.
Way above great on Elvis's vocals. Outstanding! Bravo! 🎸🎵🧨
This performance is number 1 for me too, I have enormous respect for Sinatra but boy, this man here is the very best of the best gifts, no question.
In the actual performance, rather than just going up to the 5th for that last held note, he actually goes up to the 6th and then resolves it back down to the 5th. It's just mind-blowing and his tone is so good, his mouth is wide open, his jaw is dropped and relaxed and he is holding the mic very far from his mouth, which means he is really projecting with power on that high note. So impressive.
He sings this song in 77 six to eight weeks before he died and that voice is more stronger and powerful ,and it breaks my heart knowing we lost this great man ,but his memory will forever live on in our hearts and soul.
Jerry Obern Scheff (born January 31, 1941) is an American bassist, best known for his work with Elvis Presley from 1969 to 1977 as a member of his TCB Band and on the Doors' L.A. Woman.
Thanks I love your reactions
PS: Please play my Favourite The Three Degrees When will see you again , Sheila Ferguson Please !!! Flawless Perfection as well !!!
Absolutely amazing performer his voice is beautiful and his band truly amazing love him always fantastic
Full dress rehearsal and full audience. Elvis is on lists for all time greatest singers.
Frank Sinatra first sang this Paul Anka song. I liked it. Then I heard Elvis show how it’s done. Loved it!
ELVIS WAS AMAZING. HIS GIFTS DIVINELY GIVEN.
I LIVED IN MEMPHIS, WENT TO GRACELAND.
My man Elvis beautiful inside and out
Thank you! Love it.
Sir, glad you appreciate "The King" as much as the rest of us do! Elvis was the total package. Having waited for hours outside MANY concert venues, I can tell you the big acts have full dress rehearsals of their shows, to make sure all goes according to plan. Waiting outside, one gets a muted version; but of course, ain't NOTHIN' like the real thing. Elvis WAS the real thing! Thanks for reacting to this one, sir!
Elvis has sung 4 French songs, this is one of them.
It was a rehearsal but was filmed in case there was issues with the live feed. Check out some of the back stage singing that Elvis did in Elvis on Tour. His rehearsal or jam sessions are awesome. I don't think he turned it down just because it was not a studio recording. It was music from his soul each time. Elvis really wanted to do this song and talked to Paul Anka about it. Anka said he didn't feel it was right for Elvis because of his age. It was really a song fitting someone at the end of their life. Anka acknowledged his error with Elvis's passing and said something to the effect of "little did we know.".
That was one of your best Elvis reactions! Thank you for appreciating Elvis❗
French song by the way... "comme d'habitude." I love your reactions.
Harri, I think it's Jerry Scheff on base.. he is a true professional. Elvis surrounded himself with the best musicians and singers! ⚡🔥🎸🎧🇿🇦
“What Now My Love” - Elvis rehearsal performance Aloha from Hawaii
Thx for your reaction & enjoying & understanding Elvis & "his people". The point of the rehearsal was to sort out glitches that might happen, such as sound & lighting problems; for Vegas, Elvis was requested to open the newly built International hotel, but the one smart thing Parker did was say no & they got barbara streisand to open; there were technical problems during her show, something that would have fallen on Elvis had he been the opener.
I actually enjoyed the rehearsal concert over the live show because Elvis seemed a little reserved or held back a little, if you own the two disc set of the concert you can see a remarkable difference between the two. Not saying this negatively, I'm the biggest Elvis fan out here but he was far more relaxed than the live show the very next night.
Hello Harri. Please react to a short interview, less than 5 min: "The Bruno Kirby Story, The magic of Elvis Presley." This reflects the true heart of Elvis Presley and his love for fans. 🇿🇦
What a glorious voice Elvis had. I could listen to him every day. Thank you for your reaction Harri. ❤️
Please, please do Just Pretend I would love to see your reaction to that
Harri, this entire “Aloha From Hawaii” concert is phenomenal.
“You Gave Me A Mountain” would be my top tip brother. 🙏🏻
Thank you for playing Elvis Presley 🥰 My Way love Thad song 😍
Bass Guitar Legend Jerry Scheff !
You are the best Elvis reactor. I can tell it’s not bs. You genuinely pick great song’s & love them.
Elvis became ELVIS in front of an audience. He loved them as much as they loved him. I often think what it all must have looked like to that poor boy from Tupelo.
This was a dress rehearsal but also it was filmed with 5000 in attendence incase the live feed went down they could switch to this until it is fixed, but you are right who else sounds this good in a rehearsal...
I have to say the one very good/smart thing Parker did was to not allow Elvis to be the opener for the newly built Vegas International, which the owners wanted him to do; somehow they got Barbara Streisand to be the opener, as Parker knew there could be some technical problems w-sound & lighting, & sure enough, Streisand did have some technical issues; so by the time Elvis signed on, all issues were cleared up.
The pre show performance was actually better than the second show
i adore his rehearsal show -- but oddly enough 99% prefer the live over the rehearsal -- he was amazing either way but i love the rehearsal -- & i love his longer hair -- it was also longer in Hampton Roads '72
Jerry Scheff, great bass player. Also James Burton on guitar (played with Ricky Nelson in the early days).
THANK YOU HARRI! Yes I changed my request to this one I did ask for "Polk Salad Annie" but you'd already done that one! THIS WAS FOR MY DADDY PASSED AWAY LAS YEAR TO COVID AGE 73! HE LOVED ELVIS!!!!! & STILL HAD THOSE SIDEBURNS TOO MISS HIM SO SO MUCH
Thanks TAH and Harri, this was great! Yet another proof that Elvis was the King! TAH, my condolences on your loss. But he lives on in your heart, and through shared passions such as great music like this.
@@Cosmo-Kramer Thanks!!! So true.... I've always listened to Elvis but not all he time but When Dad passed all I want to do is listen to Elvis... all the memories we shared
@@tonyarenee531 I can totally relate. :)
Chills, what a voice. Timeless
Harri, I love your reaction videos!
Great reaction again! The fullness of his voice is something else
Great reaction. It was a full concert taped for the satellite special that was going to be broadcast the next night, used as a backup in case there were any issues with the satellite transmission the next day - which their weren’t (hence the term rehearsal). I believe Sinatra said o the performance that Elvis was the new owner of the song 😏
Many Elvis fans would disagree with me because, as a general rule, fans think Elvis was better during this “dress rehearsal” show (actually a filmed back up in case the live via satellite show had technical issues) than in the actual broadcasted show. I, on the other hand, think Elvis was more in command during the televised show, particularly on this song. This version is really great but when you see/hear My Way side by side on rehearsal & televised shows, the latter is edgier, just a touch more dramatic and Elvis’ vocals just a little sharper. Having said all that I do understand you guys keep coming up against copyright issues.
Jerry Schiff played the Bass Guitar.
The producer/director Steve Binder told Parker he wanted to build a ramp for Elvis to walk out on & Parker said no way; Binder explained that it would be 8 feet wide & Elvis cold stay in the middle or go to the left or to the right if he wanted to (Binder new how important the audience was to Elvis) & Parker said no; fortunately Binder was able to get a meeting w-Elvis & he (Binder) explained why he wanted to do the ramp; Elvis stood up from his chair, hugged Binder & said you are the first person who has been totally honest w-me; Elvis over-rode Parker & so the ramp was built. Binder also told Elvis he had to lose 25 lbs., which Elvis did. Can you imagine how different that concert would have been had there not been a ramp!! The entire interview is on youtube.
Full Dress Rehearsal Concert for a full audience and also fall back footage in case there was a problem on the night of the actual television broadcast. Fun fact, after Elvis watched the playback of this rehearsal show he decided to have his hair cut for the actual Aloha From Hawaii Concert broadcast. TCB⚡️
@Daniel Mahon * I heard that Elvis not only thought his hair was too long, but also thought his nails were too long, so he had a manicure.
@@ihatechange
Seriously???
Are we really talking about a haircut and a manicure when it comes to the greatest entertainer of all times? I don't know if to laugh or to cry!
Maybe both....😆😢
@@alameas6358
Same!
@@alameas6358 yes, everything Elvis is good & interesting, even a manicuare
@@alameas6358
Sometimes i think i can imagine how he must have felt. If even a manicure or a haircut was worth mentioning. He really lived in a golden cage. And although he loved his fans maybe they/we were the ones who closed the cage door.
Elvis fumbled with the words at 3:31. He should have sang it as "When there was doubt..." But he got it right for the actual satellite broadcast.
ELVIS É UMA LENDA🎼🎼🎼🎼
*Paul Anka wrote this song for Frank Sinatra. But I have always felt it was more of a tribute to Elvis.*
Esplêndido 👏👏👏👏♥️
enjoy your elvis reation videos
Seen this Aloha concert was to be beamed all throughout the entire planet Elvis wanted ro iron out any little bugs now instead of the live performance,the Satellite show was viewed by more than 1•5billion
Hello Harri! I'm new at your channel. Your're loving music so much and that pleases me so much. I've written you two comments to "while my guitar gently wheeps" and to "my sweet lord".
I'm from Germamy and i have to appologise for my bad english. Please, would you so kind to ignore my mistakes?🌺🌺I think, i was 11 years when Elvis died...but it shoked my so much!!!
Elvis was the King - he really could sing - with body and soul...and i think, he had (has) a loving soul.
A few years later John was shoot do death....😪😪😪
Hi from New York -- don't apologize dear -- there are people in this country who can't speak proper English; i'm shocked by some of the things i read & hear; you do a great job.
It was a rehearsal show for the satellite broadcast but there was still a packed house.
The bass player is Jerry scheff. He also played with The Doors and was a great session player.
This was not a rehersal, this was Aloha from Hawaii.
Show the main concert 1973 all those songs !
U should do a reaction on The New Elvis Movie there are 2 trailers, nd one short. The movie is going 2 be Awesome nd Speculator coming out 24th June, 2022.
The version he did at the actual «Aloha» broadcast on the 14th is much better, IMHO. But as a concert, the rehearsal showed a much «looser»Elvis, much less nervous(?) as it was not the main broadcast. The attendance at the HIC Arena was around 6000-6500 at both shows, sold-out both evenings. It looks like it was much more, but Marty Pasetta, the producer of the show, put in mirrors to get that extra feeling. The receipts at both shows went ro the Kui Lee cancer fund. Kui Lee wrote «I’ll Remember You», a song Elvis featured at both shows.
My Way was written by Canadian Paul Anka who had many hits in the late 50's and early 60's.
Paul Anka only wrote the lyrics the song was originally a French song called Comme d’habitude composed by Jacques Revaux
Oh I forgot to mention, in this version he has added a violin to the song, Frank Sinatra don't have a violin in his version...
It was an almost regular show, but it was a rehearsal for the tv show that foollow.
I hate to say it but I like this over the main concert 🎵 version.
Drugs suck…abused or not…
Noticed a little hesitancy on a couple words.
Ronnie booming bass drum in rhythm with the guitar was awesome too!
Actually…it was a concert…rehearsal concert very brave thing to do but fans loved it!
@@royeastham5277 that's ok -- Elvis had numerous flubs of lyrics -- '68 comeback special, one of his '70 Vegas songs -- but the master that he was, he could smile & just sail along -- & he did it so well that barely anyone ever noticed
Something happened ..your right ! 4 yrs ?
James Burton JERRY
Everything from The Aloha concert nd That's The Way It Is will be blocked. Nd it's the best of Elvis. UA-cam is jealous of Elvis. JAMES BURTON ON THE BASS!!
Maybe they blended it ?
Hawaii, the farthest Elvis travelled. He never performed in another country. His manager The Colonel couldn’t leave the country. You see he was an illegal immigrant. Thats why he had Elvis stay in one place mostly (Vegas) and people came to him and he also had him do movies instead of going overseas and such.
E did go to Canada; but there is info (not made very public) the reason for not being able to get into England were the drugs.
Check out psster bob joice
That’s not a rehearsal he never wore his jumpsuits in rehearsal
He divorce Priscilla P...5 five days before this concert
Yup......that life event contributed to his early death only four short years later.
He's no Sinatra, but he's pretty great in his own way. I like his interpretations, but let's not kid ourselves. Frank Sinatra was a better singer.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
No, Frank Sinatra was not a better singer. Elvis voice had a range of 3 octaves. Elvis was the better Singer.
@@Shadow_-yk4hx besides range & octaves, let's talk about the power & emotion from his gut that he threw out to us - NO ONE ever sang like that - especially sinatra & singers from that time
