    I just get this song. It does something to my feelings that no song has ever done. I have relied on this song alone to get through some very troubling times! Thanks Elvis from the bottom of my heart, it really saved my life ❤

      @@CamilleLMacLean Me too! My best friend introduced me to his catalog of music in the 7th grade and he has been my favorite since! It's almost like his music got me and is the soundtrack to my life. I know more about him now and I understand why I relate to him more than any other performer.

      I saw him sing this song in New York City in 1996. When he sang the bridge--and especially, the second 'hurt'--it was an amazing moment; I'd seen never seen or heard him sing that way; and the double meaning of that last line. Great.

      @@craigsmith8320 Exactly! The album he did with Burt Bacharach has a few songs where he does that! I've seen him four times and he always delivers a moment where you are rendered into an overwhelming flush of emotions! I can't wait to see him again!

    Since he avoided the falsetto in the first two choruses I just assumed his voice had degraded too much to hit those notes any more, so I was extremely impressed when he unexpectedly started belting in head voice. I've always thought Elvis had a ridiculously powerful voice with great control and I've never understood how he incurs as much criticism for not being able to sing as he does. Bizarre really. Also, I'm guessing the concept behind this tour was that the wheel got spun and the song got played? Really cool 👏

    Beautiful, a little sad that he doesn't have the voice strength that he had when the album came out. The higher pitch in the song to me were the Fabulous part of this Fantastic! song.😍😍

    • @jamesberry7295
      @jamesberry7295 Před 3 lety +6

      If it is ‘shot’ then it is because every night on every tour he puts in performances like that one for over two hours. Not many put in a shift like Elvis.
