Elvis done loads of gospel. Had at least 4 Albums. And sang a few in every concert even in the 50s. After his concerts, Him and his band would go up to his room and they would sing gospel all night till about 3 in the morning. Elvis was looking for the truth and tried all kinds of beliefs read books, that kind of thing.
Long before Hound Dog, Elvis was first and foremost a gospel singer. That was the music he grew up singing and the music he loved best. When people criticized his gyrations, he always seemed baffled. "I wouldn't do anything that would embarrass my Mama," he would say. "The way I sing on stage is the way I sang in church."
Please react to Elvis singing "Why Me Lord" live in 1972. Another beautiful gospel song. This man is amazing. He always sang a gospel song during his concerts, even later years in Las Vegas.
Why Me Lord was written by the great, multi-talented Kris Kristofferson after what Kris described as "a profound religious experience." There's a great clip online where Kristofferson talks about the experience that led him to write Why Me Lord.
@@jealousjelly Yes, I've watched that video 👍 I like his voice to. Help Me also another inspirational song. Elvis sings this so beautifully with his powerful voice.
Fantastic I Love Elvis Presley I'm a massive Elvis Presley fan me and my nefphew are going to London in November to see Elvis Presley well a hollogram show of Elvis we really Looking forward 2 it it's going to be fantastic 🤓👍
The most charismatic singer entertainer and humanitarian ever. No one today can match his brilliance !! Merry Christmas & God's Glory for a New Year 🙏🙏
This was a great version my favorite but the 1977 was so emotional for me because when it aired on TV he had passed two months before. Why me lord is another of his great gospel performances.
If you want to see the best version, watch aloe off from Hawaii. How great thou art you will not be disappointed. I promise you, God bless you and yours.
You need to listen to O Precious Lord Take my hand.By Elvis..He was amazing in everything he sang but his love was gospel...Thank u for your reaction..
As I said before that's where he started out even as a child sneaking into gospel quartet sing alongs and continued his love of gospel through out his life. He said it gave him strength and he never stopped loving God. No Matter what you hear, what they say in the media, he loved God. I saw this concert while he was on tour in Hampton Rds, Virginia, he even lets the Stamps quartet sing "Sweet Sweet Spirit" while he listens and doesn't sing at all. He said it calmed him. I love your reactions, and know that Elvis has sold more gospel than any other single artist in the world. In some countries they only know him as a gospel singer. The only Grammys he received were for his gospel gold albums. Three. Be Blessed
There is a very direct line from gospel to blues to rock and roll. You can really see this with Elvis. It's like musical history right in front of you.
Please react too to the version from 1977 How Great Thou Art. His voice 1977 was unmatched. Thank you for your Elvis reacting. 🙏🫶 Greetings from Germany. 🥰🇩🇪
He was in the middle of a live concert in Vegas and then took them to church? What other performers do this?? None!! He is, and will, always be the best there ever was.
How great thou art. The world-famous hymn O store Gud was written in Mönsterås by Carl Boberg in the summer of 1885, after a severe thunderstorm. The song is said to be the most performed and played hymn in the world. At Mönsterås library there is an exhibition about the hymn and about Carl Boberg.
The peace of God! And may all honor and glory be given to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen! Brothers, I would like to share with you a testimony, and this testimony involves Elvis Presley. In 1993, when I was just 5 years old, I watched a special documentary on a television station here in Brazil, in that documentary they called a man the King of Rock, the king; So I asked my mother who this king was, and she said it was Elvis, and played some of his secular songs, and also in the documentary it said that Elvis sang gospel music, although he didn't play any in the documentary. From that moment on, hearing his voice and seeing his beauty, I fell in love and Elvis became my favorite artist. As a teenager, from the age of 11, I put Elvis in the drawer and started listening to heavier sounds, from Gothic Rock, Hard Rock, to Heavy Metal and Black Metal, I also declared myself an atheist... But I never stopped saying that Elvis was my favorite singer, and I was very interested in hearing him sing gospel, because, despite all the resentment I had towards God, I wanted to know if I would feel something. And throughout the first decade of the 2000s, even if I went to the house of friends who had internet or if I went to a LanHouse, I always forgot to research about Elvis singing gospel, it was as if something took that thought away from me. . In 2007, in October, I had a dream about death and, in real life, 12 hours after this dream I was run over; I was in a coma for 2 days and out of consciousness for 3 days and when I regained consciousness, the doctor told me some things, and I said to myself: "God exists! But, what is God? A force, an energy of the human will that interacts with us according to our desires?" . No response... when I was released from the hospital, my mother saw a stall selling some DVDs and said: "Don't you want an Elvis DVD? Let's buy it!". We compare Elvis: Comeback Special 1968. When I got home, the first thing I did was put on that DVD, and as the songs were rolling, I thought: "This man was so handsome, charismatic, there was something different about him", and suddenly there was a section where Elvis talks about the origin of Rock n' Roll, that Rock comes from gospel music, I felt a shock in my heart... And then a medley of gospel music began, and from the second song, when Elvis started to sing, although the My bedroom window was closed, I heard the wind blowing in my right ear, and a strong but soft voice said: "If this man, who was given so much fame, glory and majesty, believed and praised God, why don't you also believe and praise?", my reaction was to look to the right and, seeing that there was no one, I immediately I shouted for my mother and told her what I had heard, and she said that the Holy Spirit of God spoke to me. So I sat on the bed and thought about it and said: "God spoke to me, so if God spoke to me he cannot be an energy, nor a human willpower, he can only be a person, that is, a being, someone alive"... God used Elvis to speak to me and present himself to me as someone, as a person, not as an energy... I had some questions, and I asked God about Elvis' life, I knew he had never used illegal drugs, nor was he an alcoholic, but I thought he had made a lot of mistakes, and whenever I asked a question, I opened the door. Bible with my eyes closed (I was really drawing lots) waiting for an answer, and the answer to this was what I received when I spoke to God about Elvis' mistakes, was this: "¹ Do not judge, so that you will not be judged. ² For with the judgment with which you judge you will be judged, and with the measure with which you have measured it will be measured to you." Matthew 7: 1 - 2. Upon receiving this answer, I realized that I did not have to fear liking that man, After all, it was while I heard him praise that I could also hear the voice of God exalt him. So I asked God again: "Can a dead person perform miracles, can God use someone who died to perform miracles? Would God use someone who many consider condemned?", but even opening the Bible, I didn't get the answer... and two Years passed, but sometimes I asked: "Can a dead person perform miracles, can God use someone who died to perform miracles? Would God use someone who many consider condemned?", God knew I needed that answer, until , one day, when asking again, however, opening the unopened Bible, this word came: "²⁰ Then Elisha died and was buried. Now Moabite troops used to enter the country every spring. ²¹ Once, while some Israelites were burying a man, they suddenly saw one of these troops; So they threw the man's body into Elisha's tomb and fled. As soon as the corpse touched Elisha's bones, the man came to life and stood up." 2 Kings 13: 20 - 21. Then, after reading this, I heard a voice say, "I can and do use whoever I want, however I want." Well... Moral of the story... If I loved Elvis as a child, after hearing God speak to me, I started to love Elvis much more. I never watched the special shows that celebrated Elvis live, I never even went to big Rock shows, even if I had money and really liked a band, I didn't care; God does not want us to sacrifice ourselves for artists, nor does He want us to love singers more than Him, but God does not want to deprive us of what He can use to save us. God used Elvis, and the love that was born in my heart worried me, because I could no longer disassociate myself from Elvis, but the answers that God gave me just showed me that I can appreciate Rock n' Roll and, in particular, Elvis Presley, because all honor and glory belongs to Him (God), and the exaltation of men, when it comes from God, should not be taken away by anyone. God bless you all. Hugs and kisses from Brazil!
"He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away." And He who was seated on the throne said, "Behold, I am making all things new." Revelation 21:4

Elvis loved gospel. After the shows Elvis and all of the singers would go upstairs to his suite and sing gospel songs til dawn to unwind.

I saw Elvis in person in mid 70s He sang this. Absolutely no auto tuning. His voice was the real deal. Happy 24 to you both!
Fun Fact. The only Grammy Awards ELVIS ever Won were for Gospel. Two for this song! In different years.
Awesome reaction, thanks and keep up the great work!
There is a very direct line from gospel to blues to rock and roll. You can really see this with Elvis. It's like musical history right in front of you.
Another great video is "Where No one Stands Alone" with Lisa Marie doing a duet with her father. Just amazing. RIP. EP and Lisa Marie

@@bopoulsen4030 you're right, my bad. But still different from any performer who would sing a gospel song in the middle of a concert.
