This record is not sexist, it's reality of life.There have been deceiving, conniving, two timing both men & women since time began & continues today & until the end of time.Its life.Also this song shows u how good Elvis was, this is a hard song to sing also New Orleans from the same movie.He had a diversity for music like no one else.
Well it leaves out the man’s disobedience as with Samson going where he shouldn’t with women of the world, and Ahab’s indifference letting Jezebel rule in his place. The original sin with Eve is never clear concerning Adam. But it says the women was easily deceived. - but the man was the head. ??? Yes Eve fell first and Adam follows. Elvis last verse kinda clears the problem up, that he has a women head like a rock, but if she ever leaves he’ll cry around the clock. The man is easily messed up by following the women instead of resisting and the serpent knows it.
It took me YEARS to put these lyrics together. And I share Elvis’s accent and have read the Bible. Love this song. It’s hilarious! And a a total *banger* !
@Cornbread Oracle Now imagine people like me who are not native speakers... It was impossible for me to decipher the lyrics without the written text, no matter how hard I tried. LOL.
Hey mate .. Thank you for your amazing reaction I love how you get excited about Elvis. Don't worry mate. Millions of people do exactly the same lol If you want to listen to a song which talks about the Bible Could you please react to Life by Elvis Presley Thank you mate You can't go wrong with Elvis God bless you
No not sexist! haha... No... this is just a rebellion song that would satisfy the thirst of young people when Elvis was coming up. Brilliant execution by Elvis ... New Orleans theme banger!! These early Elvis songs pissed off the old elites!!!!
Well done Seph you know your bible. Extremely fast lyrics and really rockin' sound with Elvis making his aahs and oohs sounds. This is a classic, very hard to beat also love the guitarlicks. Triple banger.
For all of you who don't know, I have been reacting To Every single Elvis Presley song in chronological order! Here is the link to my playlist:: Elvis Presley Reactions: ua-cam.com/play/PLn84b2i6CbmNnXoTwRxW6k5a66BhvDSVd.html
So good. #1 Billboard hit. Also 1st rock 'n' roll single to become an RIAA gold record. Ha, ha, in 1970 Elvis read a telegram from RCA wishing him luck with his 3rd Vegas season, saying "we're finally starting to understand what you're saying on record." 😂
Absolutely love your reactions irrespective of whether you love it or not. I couldn't stop smiling when it became clear how much you liked it. So you are not missing the homecoming piano hm.
This song is a banger I know the Bible brought up in the catholic school etc etc don’t practice anymore but I totally understood this song 🤣. Elvis is awesome I totally love this rocking song. Unfortunately this is probably still true today we just turn blind eye to it. Why not it’s true just like men women can be evil. Equality all the way.
knowing the linguistics of the region of the South where Elvis grew up(Tupelo and Memphis are nearly on the same latitudinal line)you can better understand the accent he had.
I agree! Total banger 💣💥 Total honesty: I've never read the bible so while I've heard of Adam & Eve and Samson & Delilah and all those other biblical people I've never actually read any of the stories. So fair play to you, Seph 👏👏 With this one, you schooled me this round 😁 🎶🎤🎸🎶👍💗
SEPH, I also know, this particular song is Biblical, from Samson and Delilah, and even from the Creation story, where Adam was tempted by Eve. But, really, it's still just a song, and I love it! I'm back on with the ELVIS TRAIN! 😃
If you want to hear hi. Does some lyrics you need to see "Clean up your own back yard" from Girls ,Girls,Girls". Also one of his really low songs "Is it So Strange". Also, "Reconsider Baby". Where is the Chip Monk voice? When are you getting into is later stuff. You know he got better with age. There is 23 ears of music. By the way your Bible knowledge is impressive. Thanks, Be Blessed
The first Elvis song Seph heard was "Kentucky Rain". He was so impressed with his voice that he decided to listen to every song Elvis ever recorded in order of release date. It's quite a project he's taken on. He just finished all the '50s songs.
@@SephPlays You have definitely taken on a huge task, but it's such a worthwhile project. Watching you take this journey is incredible!! You're about to discover how all those home recordings you just suffered through led to Elvis fine-tuning his already amazing voice. He made 27 movies in the '60s and mostly recorded soundtracks during that decade. There are a few stray songs here and there that weren't in the movies. You're also about to be treated to Elvis' first gospel album. Enjoy!!
@@SephPlays Fair warning: some of the movies and movie songs are pretty corny. While Elvis wanted to become a serious actor, his manager and the studio execs were more interested in $$$ and kept him in the teen idol box. Besides his 1960 gospel album, His Hand in Mine, he also released one album that's not a soundtrack in 1960 called ELVIS IS BACK. This was the first of his albums that was in stereo. Lots of variety on this album. And I'm really looking forward to your reactions to his tons of music movie "G.I. Blues" and his nonmusical film "Flaming Star".
SEPH, One more thing, you mentioned Goliath. I had two classes in "Bible As Archaeology" at University. And my instructor who was also a Minister and Counselor, was right from Ireland. It's exciting to me, when human skeletons of giants are found. And especially in the Holy Land!
@@SephPlays The remains of the "giants", especially whenever they become newsworthy, are confiscated and not publicized. Generally the media is more entertained by "breaking news" of strange lights in the sky, or some such ilk. The Smithsonian is known to be in possession of the types of ancient remains. But Jerusalem might be another story...less unwilling to ignore any of the Biblical texts and accounts, e.g...."and in those days there were giants..."
Written by Claude Demetrius who also wrote Mean Woman Blues. An amazing songwriter. Yet another African American songwriter like Otis Blackwell who provided Elvis with his best songs.
@@SephPlays Oh sorry... I wrong... Cat stevens had a music the same name... This song of Elvis who was wrote has Claude Demetrius. Sorry 😔... And sorry my terrible english language too... I'm brazilian... I hope you understand me. Even a woman recorded it too, Wanda Jackson
You got to remember this was all pre snowflake. Back before everybody became so delicate lol. If you think this is sexist you have to listen to the song lightning strikes. I can't remember the name of the guy it's Lou something I think. The song is literally about a guy telling a woman look I love you and one day I'm going to marry you. But for now you're going to have to be my girlfriend and deal with the fact that I'm going to be hooking up with a bunch of other random chicks. If another woman gives me even the slightest hint that she wants me, I'm going to have to give her some lol. Those aren't the exact words but it's the gist of the song.
Amazing to think that songs like this were very overlooked back then. But now days it's frowned upon for not being PC. I have no idea what the worlds coming to! And to be honest, these are song actually very very verrrry tame compared to what else is out there haha
Again , this song would never fly in this culture ... OMG , it's a song ... get over it ... different times people LOL ! I'll take Elvis singing anything over most of the music today , just sayin' !
Believe it or not this single shot to number one in the charts immediately after the movie. Either everyone bought it because it was catchy, or to listen and be able to catch the lyrics of it. I’m sure a bit of both. But yes both are the fault. The women as with the first sin with Eve, was easily deceived by the serpent. But in the word it says the man as the spiritual authority has the right and duty to call off the curses, if he hears what she says and lets it stand it will stand. If he hears it and rebukes it, it will not stand. The father of a daughter and a husband of the women. Of coarse Adam and Eve were b4 the law was given but you get the point once the law is given. And the law is given because of the original sin and fall from the garden of Eden. The entire album sound track reached number 2 on the charts where the single reach #1. So you can figure people were buying the single and the radio stations playing it, 1) because it was catchy and/or 2) to finally catch the words.
You need to listen react to statler brothers old and New Testament goes through bible old and new each song addresses these stories Eve did bring down man but both sinned. Punishment is death and men are supposed to work by the sweat of their brow and woman will have pain in childbirth
I don’t think heard headed woman is pleural each individual brings their own integrity or evilness to the situation. Remember Mary full of grace virgin mother of Jesus
It is a bit sexist. Strictly from a man’s perspective. And not completely biblically sound. Totally focusing on the Jezebel spirit. But the women can sing it too turned around, that the soft headed man has been the problem too! Called the Ahab spirit. And it was in the movie but in the background, not fully recognized. Elvis is singing it in The King Creole while the focus is on the outside and crowds he’s drawing. You have to focus on it to hear it, and it’s not the full length or at least not by the time you can start catching the words.
I dont know if you know. So im gonna tell you anyways. I am reacting to all these songs in release order. So i promise I will get there! Just taking the long way round haha
ELVIS could sing so fast its incredible! This is why he is the greatest Artist of all time!
Indeed he sped up most every song.
A Definite Banger!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤!
Love this do rock and toll
You are too sweet and you were brought up right, Seph! This is a fun song, though. Love your reactions!!❤️🔥❤️🔥
Omg yeah this song! Very good song ❤️
Great song, from now on nothing but perfection.a lot of Dixie land rock about this.
Great reaction, great song. An absolute BANGER :)))
This song is mind-blowingly good 😍

New Orleans jazz with a hint of surf guitar riff. Amazing arrangement.

Great comment and really funny.😆
That's Elvis, he tailor any lyrics into different kinds of tunes. That is why his called the 'King' nevertheless this song was a # 1 hit in 1957.
Absolutely love your reactions irrespective of whether you love it or not.
I couldn't stop smiling when it became clear how much you liked it.
So you are not missing the homecoming piano hm.
Its hard not to like any Elvis songs. Theres only been a couple ive hated out of the ones ive heard

It was the fiftys mate that'd be why😂
first this song was written by Cat Stevens... and second, these lyrics are a lullaby compared to what current Brazilian songs talk about women here
Cat Stevens? Is he good?
@@SephPlays Oh sorry... I wrong... Cat stevens had a music the same name... This song of Elvis who was wrote has Claude Demetrius. Sorry 😔... And sorry my terrible english language too... I'm brazilian... I hope you understand me. Even a woman recorded it too, Wanda Jackson
Love this song but have to admit could never understand the words ‘thorn in the side of man’. Often wondered why spider man came into the song!!! 😂
Omg i wasn't expecting to be laughing this morning 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That is hilarious!
Adam named everything in the garden of Eden including woman. Woman was made for man as a helpmate not the other way around and yes I’m a woman
Adam was put to sleep rib removed to make eve helpmate

No it isn’t sexist when woman brought mankind down to die but Adam did it to
These lyrics are incorrect - should read "been the cause of trouble ever since etc".
Sexist? Hahahahahaha. No.
Well, if you compare it to modern songs. Its actually reallllyyyyyyy tame 😅
🤣🤣🤣

I always like to show the Bible, or any "Holy Book" of ANY religion, as the Fountain of all Sexist thought. Just a thought. 🤣🥃
