Beautiful soulful sound!! Elvis's voice is PERFECTION! ❣❣🎶🎶🤗🤗
I LOVE this song!
Beautiful isn't it?
Elvis true calling was Gospel music
He was so inspirational when he sang Gospel. Maybe it sounds Christmasy because it’s about Christ. 😮😂😂❤
Thank you, Seth, tremendous reaction, my friend

2nd comment: Songwriter Info: Ralph Carmichael (May 27, 1927 - October 18, 2021) was an American composer and arranger of both secular pop music and contemporary Christian music. He is regarded as one of the pioneers of contemporary Christian music.
Carmichael was born in Quincy, Illinois, the son of a Pentecostal minister. As a teenager, Carmichael played violin with the San Jose Civic Symphony. At seventeen, he enrolled at Southern California Bible College (now Vanguard University) to become a preacher like his father, grandfather, three uncles, and five cousins. He started a campus men's quartet, as well as ensembles and mixed groups of all kinds, blending jazz and classical music techniques with gospel songs and hymns. His bands were unwelcomed at many churches, and he was not allowed to store his baritone saxophone on campus because of its associations with big band music.
After college, Carmichael's band received mixed reactions from the Christian community. One church asked that they hide their drums behind a curtain; a pastor in Oakland stopped the band mid-song because the music sounded too "worldly." After a performance at a men's fellowship in Pasadena, however, Carmichael's band was invited to audition for television. The TV program drew so much response mail from Christians that the station asked for more shows.
In 1951, Carmichael was invited to score a film for the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. In all, he scored twenty of the BGEA's films, including the funky urban soundtrack for the 1970 film The Cross and the Switchblade. By the late 1950s, secular producers had taken notice of Carmichael's radio and film work. He was invited to assist the composer at the television sitcom I Love Lucy and was soon arranging music for that show as well as Bonanza and The Roy Rogers and Dale Evans Show and for singer Rosemary Clooney. In 1958, Carmichael was hired by producer Jack H. Harris to score his science fiction film, The Blob. With the success of the film, Carmichael was brought back to score Harris' follow-up film, 4D Man. He arranged and composed music for a Bing Crosby Christmas special television program (which prompted his denomination to strongly discourage the renewal of his ordination). He also composed and conducted the theme music for the 1965 sitcom, My Mother the Car.
Carmichael's work was noticed by Capitol Records in the late 1950s. They asked him to provide arrangements for an album of mainly sacred Christmas songs by one of the label's biggest stars, Nat King Cole. The result, The Magic of Christmas, was released for the 1960 festive season, by which time Capitol had already set Carmichael to work with Cole on more secular albums.
Carmichael duly became Cole's most regularly utilized arranger from then until the singer's death in early 1965. Their first mainstream pop collaboration was The Touch of Your Lips (also 1960), an album of romantic ballads backed by lush strings. Their final collaboration was Cole's last album, L-O-V-E. Featuring jazzy big band arrangements. It was recorded in December 1964, only two months before Cole succumbed to lung cancer, which was already in its advanced stages.
Carmichael's experiments in pop-rock style Christian music in the 1960s and 1970s brought him recognition as the "Father of Contemporary Christian Music". He founded Light Records in order to widen the audience for the music of the Jesus People. He was subject to controversy from within the church, being called a heretic for his use of guitars in worship and his adaptations of Gospel songs to big band stylings.
Manna Music Inc founders, Tim and Hal Spencer, introduced Andraé Crouch to Carmichael, helping to launch Crouch's recording career. Carmichael also provided the backing for a number of RCA albums by Gospel singer George Beverly Shea, including The Love of God in 1958, and How Great Thou Art in 1969.
In 1969, Carmichael and Kurt Kaiser collaborated on Tell It Like It Is, a folk musical about God. The record album of the musical, which included the song "Pass It On", sold 2,500 copies, completely selling out the first run; it then completely sold out its second run of 100,000 copies. The Carpenters recorded Carmichael's song "Love is Surrender" on their 1970 album Close to You.
One of Carmichael's contemporary hymns, "Reach Out to Jesus", was recorded by Elvis Presley on the singer's 1972 Grammy Award-winning album of sacred songs, He Touched Me. His album Strike Up the Band won a Dove Award for "Instrumental Album of the Year" at the 25th GMA Dove Awards in 1994.
Carmichael wrote arrangements for many other top performers, including Ella Fitzgerald, Bing Crosby, Jack Jones, Peggy Lee, Julie London, Al Martino and Roger Williams. He arranged most of the carols on the 1961 Stan Kenton album A Merry Christmas!.
In 1948, Carmichael married singer Evangeline Otto; they divorced in 1964. Their daughter Carol Celeste Carmichael, later Carol Parks (1949-2010), was a vocalist and assistant record producer. He married his second wife, Marvella Price, in 1965.
Carmichael's autobiography, He's Everything to Me, was published by Word Books in 1986.
Carmichael died on October 18, 2021, in Camarillo, California. He was 94.

Banger. I love almost ALL of his gospel songs.
What a great gospel❤
His voice in not normal🎉🎉
Very nice gospel song. Love Elvis' smooth baritone on this one.
I LOVE this song! It's pretty AND true!
Reach out and touch faith.
This is such a beautiful song. Like you said, A Tripple Banger❤❤❤
Great reaction😊
Thank you, Seph!
Excellent reaction Seph, to a fine rendition of a reverential gospel song, with Elvis's vocal delivery full of soul and meaning.
Elvis recalling the sound of the church - not surprisingly, Elvis is deeply in the moment when he delivers the words. It must have felt incredible to be in that studio when everyone re-created the energy of the church. By the way, about 10 days later, Elvis would record Christmas songs for a new album, so maybe Christmas was on his mind, after all!
Thank you Ralph Carmichael.
A really lovely 3/4 time gospel tune. It sounds like that's a vibraphone that you highlight and may be why this has a Christmas vibe, as you say. There's also a really great deep bass vocalist singing back-up. And that pianist is fantastic.
The Story Of Elvis & His NFL Fandom
By Martin Rogers
FOX Sports columnist
Terry Bradshaw still remembers when the phone rang at his Las Vegas hotel room, in the midst of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ 1970s glory days, and an unmistakable voice was on the other end of the line.
"I was skeptical at first," Bradshaw told me on a Friday Zoom chat. "But then there is that specific way he spoke, and it was definitely him. Yep, Elvis. Elvis called me up and wanted me to go play football with him. And man, I still think about it now."
Sure enough, Elvis Presley - eternal MVP of the music world - was indeed seeking the company of current FOX Sports NFL analyst and four-time Super Bowl champion Bradshaw, then in the prime of his playing career. And yes, if you were wondering, there is a specific reason for wanting to discuss the King of Rock 'n’ Roll on this particular week, other than the fact that hey, isn’t it always good to talk about Elvis?
As the Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers prepare to do battle in an AFC wild-card clash on Sunday night, there is a lot to unpack; a historic rivalry, the end of the Browns’ infinite playoff drought, Baker Mayfield’s coming of age and Ben Roethlisberger’s countdown to retirement.
However, for those whose love of Elvis goes beyond a mere appreciation for his music, the matchup also brings together his two all-time favorite teams, from a sport that provided him an endless source of fascination in between his famed fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches and his timeless lyrical excellence.
TO BE CONTINUED......
So uplifting. He puts so much into each note. Thank you again for sharing your reaction with us.
Fantastic
Definitely an Elvis Banger!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤!!
👑✌️
beautiful - ye a lot of the gospel ones do sound christmasy (Miracle of the Rosary is the same) - think that's why they are so easy / joyful to listen to.
Yes!
Hello there hndsm
The instrument is a xylophone
From John 2:
Now this is the right song to sing about, even Mary would agree, Do what Jesus says, Mary can't help you. And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.
3And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.
4Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.
5His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.
Stop it. We are here to listen to lovely music, not to get religious views. Here is a "parable" for you. Many years ago I went to a Christmas party held at a very religious family's home, packed full of Christian believers. I sat at a table with a man who did not shut at all and kept preaching to the table. One by one, each person got up and left the table, until there were none left but him, with no one left to preach to.
@@jjbud3124 They were probably lost like you are! 1 John 5:12
“He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.”
@@jjbud3124 I hear you. Overtly self-righteous people are rigid and preach down to others. We're here for the music. Not for a bible lesson, or religious shaming. If this crap continues, it will spoil Seph's channel.
@@rickraybourn7456 You have no right to call someone "lost" for their right to have their own opinion. This is a music channel. Enjoy the music.
This is one of the reasons why i don't like reacting to Gospel songs all too much, It's not that i don't like the songs. It's the overly religious comments i get, and the arugments that follow :(
No matter what i say in my video theres going to be someone who agrees and disagrees with me, and when it comes to peoples beliefs it can get rather heated rather quickly :(
DEPECHE MODE SO CRUEL
Love this song.
