Elvis - Bridge Over Troubled Water (live)

[ristau]

The Bible says so many bad things about America, but I do hope it is wrong, at least in some kind of way.

[shnewsman]

Capital Centre 1974. You had to have seen him live to understand. Truly larger than life. And the talent onstage with him! TLC, The Stamps, The Memphis Horns. That was just his everyday touring band! Once you saw Elvis--there was no point going to anyone else's concerts. Just knocked the place out.

[dumbletone]

fantastic... miss you Elvis

[deannamarie29]

I was blessed to have seen him live in March of 74. I was 14 at the time, and all I can say is that once you have seen him [ he was my first concert ], there was no point seeing anyone else . They were just a disappointment ! He was so much larger than life.Words cannot describe what it was like to be in the same ' room ' as the King. It was almost a ' divine ' experience ! He was that electrifying !!

[itssold16]

Simply...The BEST!!!

[chloedancer1965]

Elvis was/is the best!!!!!

[LynchColl94]

The spring of '72....the King's voice was never better!

[xxxdokan]

Elvis: King Forever!

long live the king, oh yer

[Eebygum]

God bless you Elvis. I was 7 years old when he was taken. I still remember that day, my Mum introduced me to the King! I am lucky to have visited Graceland and Its a memory I will never forget. Love You Elvis!!

[charlotte946]

Elvis. . .the ONE AND ONLY. . .for ever and always, beautiful post thank you

[mixus1000]

The King in Musik.... Thats the way it is

[ammisty]

@mixus1000 the king will always live long after were all goin dead and the next generation will be saying he is the best put the junk of today a side and elivs alway rise to the top as the real king of rock with a voice a king

[geakkeharry]

Elvis was, is and always will be the King, R.I.P. Elvis Aaron Presley, 16th of august 1977, the day music died.

[supercoon100]

Elvis was the best singer ever,the three dislikes on page must be M.J lovers!!

[katdaddydaddyo]

No one comes close to his majic. I have no Idea what he had but he had it. I at 39 years old still get stunned by his vocals.. Strange.

[thatmanfromyorkshire]

I was 7 when he died and now 34 years later he's still the KING of rock n roll he was so unique in his ways and his voice stood out from many others. In my mind he was the best entertainer/vocal artist in history. To compare others to him is wrong, why well all artists have their own unique thing, M jackson and his dancing and oddness in latter years aint going to compare at all with elvis, why well theya re 2 totally different people in style vocal talent and lovability. Elvis is The main man.

[quigglett]

nobody compares with elvis,what have we got now???,justin bieber,kylie minogue,sara storer,there will never be another like the king!!!

[sobreviviaqui]

muito bom, elvis era um gênio da musica:)

[ElvisKing35]

Elvis in case you listen: there are some people who say that michael jackson is a king, forgive them, they are just young. You know, you´re the ONLY KING EVER!!!

[keetonplace]

Love Elvis, but the '70 version is just better than this one. In fact, no comparison.

[Franquay]

Justin Beeber is better than this

[countrydude03]

@Franquay Justin Beiber is a joke, you must be jokin right? or ya just a kid that only likes no talent singers?

[JuneJoyner]

@Franquay that is definitely a joke...has to be. Nobody EVER will come close to being as good as Elvis!

[TheJim7463]

@Franquay you are a fanny !!!!!!!!!!!!!



[ElvisKing35]

@Franquay Hahahaha, best joke i heard today, wow that´s funny. he really believe that justin beeber is better than the only King- ELVIS PRESLEY!!!

[eniren10]

@Franquay who is justin beeber?

[longfootbuddy]

@eniren10 dont even say that name on this

[danhabsfan9]

i think after this song he does suspicious minds.

[sherrydr]

elvis, you have taken my hand and pulled me up many times.

[LegendaryManiacs]

By hearing this, you'd almost think Elvis was a myth.

[MrJRK7519]

Elvis sings this song best, he just puts everything he got in it!

[jimhicks36]

Elvisfan11561 - Elvis is still with us, alive and well. We would never

expose his location, for any amount of money. We find comfort in

knowing that Elvis is enjoying his grandchildren. He doesn't want for

money. The proof is there. Pray and keep an open mind.

As folks age, we tune into our life's purpose [ what you chose for this

lifetime before you were born]. Spiritual 'callings' are common for

most 'Stars' [ eg. Manly P Hall, Shirlie Maclaine and others - love - jim

Elvisfan11561 - me thinks they used a wax dummy for Elvis. God only

knows who they used for Michale Jackson. i have only see one short

video of Jackson, watching, as they were taking away his pretend body.

[jimhicks36]

Elvis is still very much alive as is Michael Jackson.

they deserve a private life away from the public.

everyone burns out from time to time.

i wish them well and long happy extended vacations.

[Elvisfan11561]

@jimhicks36 honstly im a big elvis fan and hes dead if he wanted a privit life he would not started what he did and if i was him id no stop doing that when im making thousands

[mchunch]

Great song! Great performance! *bows down*

[dcjones21]

Thank you for the post...lovely photos and what a great voice he had! Love the originals from his concerts.

[northerndisclosure]

He has such a booming voice so loud. Too bad he was worth more dead than Alive

[ofthecosmos]

I watched this tonight again on TV & suddenly burst out sobbing, from nowhere. It was pretty hilarious--a genuine body-shaking sob. I do not, uh, make a habit of doing that, lol. My husband was rightfully laughing & had a "wtf" look on his face. He asked me why. You know, it was simple: I was so overcome by his voice. I'm not a believer (not an atheist, but simply don't know), but his gospel voice could almost make me believe.

[rosechris48]

@ofthecosmos Just seen you post hun, I do that too, my friend and I sit and watch Elvis dvd`s and cry so unashamedly, we also watch documentary dvd`s listening to people saying how wonderful Elvis was and how he helped them in their hour of need paying bills etc., he was a beautiful person with a wonderful face, voice and a huge kind and gentle heart. I know for sure he is up there with God looking down on us. Loved him for years and will for eternity.

[ppinmys]

When i hear that song I have to think about my sister, who came to visit me in the hospital when I was very sick.

This makes me want to cry.

[missnimnom]

ELVIS IS THE BEST THEN AND EVER>THE REST HAVE ALL BEEN DAZZLED AND ENCOURAGED BY ELVIS AND HIS GREAT SOUL AND TALENT,BUT BELEIVE NO BODY WILL EVER BE ELVIS OR BEAT OR REPLACE HIM.HE WAS TOP OF THE LIST FOR BEING A GREAT PERSON A GREAT SOUL AND A GREAT TALENT,AND HIS TALENT STILL FILLS THE WORLD AND PEOPLES SOULS WITH HIS MAGIC AND WILL FOREVER MORE X

[itssold16]

Thank you for posting. What a great plethora of pictures of Elvis. Even though I was only 4 when he died, I have the greatest respect for him and can't wait to get to Graceland again. This, in my opinion, was one of his best songs, he poured his heart out on.

[awsuccess]

Footage that will never get old.....what an Icon in history.

[natemini]

Sadly Elvis overused his voice (doing 837 Vegas shows in just a few years) and he also abused it by putting "too much" into certain songs (ie if i can dream and countless others). Decline of his vocal ability/quality was apparent by the early 70s. With serious illnesses that weakened him/his constitution in the last couple of years came further decline in his vocal abilities. His much better version of this song is two years prior (ELIVS - Bridge Over Troubled Water (NEW mix! Great sound!). :D

[natemini]

Even with a vocal decline in the last 5 years of his life he was as beloved as ever...his fans would continue to support him and adore him right up until the end grateful for the amazing gift be brought to us. Little Richard said it well: "Elvis was God-given. There's no explanation. A messiah comes around every few thousand years, and Elvis was it this time." It would explain why 33 years after his death he is selling out concerts all over the world! and his home is 2nd most visited home in US!

[iansaforyou]

time has proved he's the best...

[Shazarog]

The best there ever was and ever will be - Elvis! LLove you forever and let your memory live on!!!!!!!

[Ayelenelvisita]

Elvis es mas que un rey!

[FirstElvis]

Elvis The Great. Elvis wears a cape like Superman. He IS a superman. Greatest entertainer in the History Of Man.

[MrRobert2109]

@FirstElvis I agree without a doubt. Elvis is the greatest singer period of all time. No man on the face of this planet can compare to him. His voice was unique in everyway. No one could come close to walking in his shoes, not now, not ever.

[ilovetorachan]

How gorgeous era it was! There was Elvis and here is Simon & Garfunkel. Besides The Beatles is there!

[TheHelico]

the king rules...

[SnollaSnax]

so much hate in that statement

[smaselvis]

the ultimate mood lifter..tcb..steve mitchell..

[aaronracine]

theBEATLES MICHAEL JACKSONcant touch elvis he is the best entertainer of all time

[nicholsjoshua15]

@aaronracine Elvis Presley and Kurt Cobain there will never be anyone who can get get near them. To look at them you have to wear sunglasses or you will go blind.

[simariato]

@aaronracine Michael Jackson is a shit musician but an excellent dancer. There s no reason to admire his music that much, if it s not an commercial pressure.

[aaronracine]

@aaronracine Elvis was the best then and now

[AndyAcoustic]

@aaronracine please don't compare elvis with the beatles..you can't compare them :)

[H30ea]

@aaronracine You must be joking (I hope)

[aaronracine]

@H30ea not a joke a fact

[jerry328i]

The king of music....he sang gospel like nobody else.

[JPibeGallina]

el mas grande.

[simongood3]

gonna see him at london o2 next year .next best thing to real life i suppose cant wait should be good .

[crazygurl09100]

@simongood3 well guess u didnt he died before

[MiKikaIwaShizaru]

I have this bootleg (The Greensboro Concert), one of the better concerts (1972), sad, that he went downhill after this.

Ironically, the official release of Elvis in Concert (1977) is AWFUL!

Just think how good his concerts (and life) would have been if he had stopped listening to that ass, Private Tom Parker!

(Not a Colonel, just a Tampa dog catcher!)

[rab230]

the king lives on in his music GOD REST HIS SOUL RIP

[danno131305]

Still the KING.........R I P

[TCBLb]

I was born 96 way too late for elvis however im a elvis tribute artist , His music is timeless and great , Sadly everyone else In my year exept for 1 or two of 300 like gangster rap or club music

I think elvis put soul into his mucis and heart.

Wish I could of seen the king of Music Live

[GHOSTSHADOW1]

[stevemularz]

Great video !!! 5 ***** !!!!!

Steve

[jhornesr]

I was at this show, April 1972 Greensboro NC. I was sitting behind the stage. The seats sucked, but I got to see E and thats all that matters.

[wc470]

how was the show

[nutt1957]

Awesome, I too was at this concert. My seats were terrible to I was on the very top level. But I can remember I was just amazed that I was seeing him in person.

[icerope1]

I was born in 1969 and all I remember is music filling our home and mostly Elvis and it is one of the many things I am eternally grateful to my parents for. No other music has or will ever come close to the magic that that he still creates. I will always be a fan of this beautiful soulful man.

[hatterasman06]

I was born in 65 and like you my family played elvis and I became familiar with many song. Especially the 1970's Elvis, which era I like the most. I was just born at the right time to catch his carreer, considering that others have missed it. It's a shame that those people didn't capture it. I'm glad I did.

[dougydurham]

Elvis loved North Carolina, and we loved Elvis ! RIP !

[Elvis8484884]
