  • I did a live UA-cam video a few months ago and unboxed the Elvis painting in the background for those who asked about it. I received it from one of my supporters, Ms. Kathyrne Pope. Thanks again, Kathryne; your kindness and consistent support of my channel are greatly appreciated!

    First, thank you for mentioning me and the painting. Second, thank you for reacting to this very special song. Hard to imagine anyone but Elvis being able to do this in the middle of a concert. I'm sure there were not a lot of dry eyes in the house. And he and Sherrill matched so beautifully at the final lines. Elvis had such exquisite timing with his song list it makes me wonder what came after this in concert. Thanks again, Brother AB. KP

      Every song he sang in the 70s had something to do with himself- he could picture himself as that person and on stage he WAS that person.

    This is such a strong & passionate song! It is definitely a tear jerker. I couldn't even make it through the first couple minutes & the tears were rolling down my face. The way Elvis delivered this song, I could actually see the images of what was going on in my mind. I can't even fully comprehend the thought of laying beside my loved one & waking up to them being gone! I had to break out the issues tissues on this one. This is such a beautiful song & the way Elvis chose to do it is incredible! It painted a vivid picture in my mind & also reminded me of & made me re-live some real life experiences of my own. The only difference is that I watched that moment happen with a couple of my loved ones instead of being asleep by them. I was actually sitting beside them! This is an absolutely heartbreaking song. Another great reaction AB! Elvis knew how to deliver a story & this is just one of the many in his catalog of songs. He just knew how to hit you in the feels whether it was upbeat & fun or, like this one, make the tears flow like a river. He could literally sing anything & the way he delivered it always made you see a vivid picture in your mind of whatever the subject of the song was about. Elvis was one of the very few that could actually make you see the lyrics he was singing. Wow...this was such a powerful song! Loved this reaction!!!

    If you haven't, you need to get to his "1968 comback" special. Listen to "trying to get to you"! Copyright junk may come into play, but there are ways around. You definitely want the version where you can watch - not a copy with fixed screen and the song just playing. You won't regret this song. Heck, watch the whole flippin special!!

    This is such a sad song & beautifully delivered by Elvis & Sherrill. I very much appreciate your Reactions. You might be feeling like some more Elvis action, about now, & Elvis’ Love Me Tender at the 1970 Las Vegas live concert has plenty of action. I know you have given a Reaction to this song, but I think you will enjoy this particular performance & have a very good time with it ….. some singing & lots of action & the ladies always love this particular performance of Love Me Tender.

    I just googled this song to see who else had covered it and the list is a mile long. I grew up listening to it on an LP but I can’t remember who sang it. It wasn’t Elvis. But I always imagined that it was a man leaving his wife rather than dying. This is much more poignant now that I know the story. 😢

    Eight hours into a recording session that started at 6 p. m. on May 19th, 1971, in Nashville, Elvis is sitting alone at the piano at 2 o'clock in the morning singing one of his favorites: Ivory Joe Hunter's "It's Still Here". He's been playing this for years at home planning to record it Sometime. This night, and understanding the magic of the moment, producer Felton Jarvis turns on the tape machine...

    It’s not a true story. Elvis just took a bit of ‘poetic license’ with it. It’s actually a song about a man leaving his wife in a rather cowardly way. Matt Monro sang it beautifully and had a hit with it in the UK.
