Elvis remade this in the late 60s as a tribute to his idol Caleb Ginyard, whose singing style Elvis imitated most of his career.

[piansta]

it´s funny to see the littleman moving himself away each time the bigger wants to sing.

great singers anyway.  thanks.

[SyberkaPL]

@piansta Because when Caleb Ginyard sings solo Orlandus Wilson moves on the left to make place for Ginyard. Clyde Riddick and Clyde Wright also move back and the forward. It's tradition for gospel quartets.

[piansta]

@SyberkaPL thank you very much for the explanation and for all the info.

you have a very good channel, also.

but ... Is it not funny?

[SyberkaPL]

@piansta Hmm. It depends on people tastes. Hard to say in my opinion. I have big respect for the Gates and for their music and job and probably i never thought that it is "funny" even when i saw this clip first time. More i thought that it is "interesting".

[piansta]

@SyberkaPL people tastes, remember.

it´s not the respect what makes the diference.

but, i don´t really know what "respect" means.

i like the music, the lyrics and the voices. i think that the movement in&out it´s an old, inocent and funny way of coreography.

[FrankSavages]

@piansta Thats an old cabaret stage trick P. one step back lead singer in ect...great old pro's the Gate, good observation.
