  • Never Seen Before Footage Of Elvis Presley! (On his last days alive)
    Some people found new footage with great quality of Elvis Presley performing Unchained Melody. It was taken from an Elvis concert in Rapid City in South Dakota in 1977! Oh my God, when I listen to this I get goosebumps, he was the best, wasn’t he?

    I legit broke into tears when they played this scene at the end of Elvis (2022). He was literally on the verge of death, but you wouldn’t have known because of his voice. It’s as if this performance was his final farewell to the world and no one knew.

      @@christopherone1 I agree, I'm not saying its a good thing, he pushed himself too hard and used drugs and food to cope and escape, but regardless, he remained a great performer. And I simply disagree about his voice here, but that's a matter of opinion and rather subjective and I assume people here understand how opinions work but sometimes I'm wrong. Not saying its his greatest performance, its far from it, but his soul still remained when he snapped into performance mode.

      I absolutely agree with you. The way he looked up and smiled at someone to the right of him. The way he looked at and smiled was like I hope I'm doing it good enough for everyone he liked making people happy. RIP Elvis Presley. I have a uncle named after you. And back in 1974 trough 1979. I was 5 years old in 74 10 years old in 79. And in those few years I pretty much lived with my grandmother. And she would be listening to the radio and a Elvis Presley song would come over the radio I remember she would say hey come here boy let me teach you how to dance. I would mimic Elvis moves and get my pelvis moving I thought I was Elvis Presley. 💯 RIP Elvis Presley. You helped a small scared to death little boy get trough a very very hard time in my life. 💯🙏😥

    I’ve never give much thought about Elvis throughout my 44 years of being alive. I watched the movie over the weekend and it touched something deep inside me. I’ve watched this performance several times since and I just completely broke down in tears while watching it again. I cannot explain what just happened but his voice is truly powerful. All I can say is that I love and miss Elvis now. Such a very sad and tragic end to a beautiful human.

      I think it's because you know now how he was used, and taken advantage of, when all he wanted to do was making people happy, he cared more for others than he did himself. You can tell he is singing this song to Priscilla, even through everything, he loved her. He lived for everyone else except himself, his fans, his manager, his family, his love, and that cost him his life and his happiness. That is what makes it so tragic and why he will always be the King.

This movie made me realise so much about the influence he had on music and made me appreciate his music a lot more. I’m so appreciative of this movie i was in shock with how much i enjoyed it. the cut at the end from Austin Butler to real life Elvis got me so emotional it was heartbreaking and i cried like an absolute baby. im so so glad i watched this movie.

      I’m so glad this generation gets to experience his music, as well as the soundtrack which adds such a good modern twist.

    My grandfather had just immigrated to Raleigh, NC from Greece in 1955 and was working in his older brother’s diner who immigrated 7 years prior. My grandfather was cleaning up late, and Elvis had been in town for a couple weeks with the Hank Snow show. My grandfather was sitting in one of the booths struggling with his homework when this boisterous young Elvis with about 5-6 other men came in at around 12am and sat at a booth in front of him. Elvis turns around and spots my grandfather looking befuddled over his homework. He goes over to him and says “hey son, what are you working on?” To which my grandfather replied “my English is bad, I don’t know this” and it was the English alphabet. Elvis sat with my grandfather for a good while and helped him sound out and write out the alphabet. Elvis had such a soft spot for immigrants and minorities, that love he had for other people was so great. To this day my grandfather cries every time he tells this story and proudly says “Elvis helped me learn the letter ‘H’ “ Honest to God true story, and we both cried watching his biopic because that raw goodness was used against him. Elvis deserved the world, may God bless his beautiful memory always.

He said," something to me then bent down telling me I was one of the prettiest little girls he had ever seen kissed my right cheek. That was my first true loves kiss I will never forget. His death took me such along time to get over losing him. I know it meant nothing to Elvis but that has always been Cherished in my heart and soul. Hearing his singing brings tears still to my eyes.I have that Kiss implanted in my mind forever.
