Elvis - Down in Mississippi - Jimmy Ellis aka Orion

[randylove50]

loved his music can you realy blame people for thinking he could have been the real elvis? as sun records wasm his lable and elvis did die they sold his records the store across astreet from elvis es home . i just with jimmy didnt have to die like he did in his pon shop

[SONICROKS1989]

The guy who did my grandmas cable recently said he knew Orion and he was Elvis's half brother and that ELVIS ACTUALLY DIED IN 2001 OR 2002. HARD TO BELIEVE BUT INTERESTING

[randylove50]

ONE OR THE REASONS WHY PEOPLE THOUGHT JIMMY ELLIS WAS ELVIS WAS BECAUES ALL HIS RECORDS WERE SOLD AT THE ELVIS SHOPS ACROSS FOR HIS HOME AND THE LABLE WAS OFF THE SUN RECORDS HOWEVER THIS SONG MADE ME THINK IF ELVIS WERE ALIVE WHERE WOULD HE GO AND THE ANSWER IS AT HIS OWN HOME UPSTAIRS WHEN NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO GO THE PLANS SHOW THERE IS EVERYTHING HE NEEDED TO LIVE

[flyingmanforfun]

my father was jimmy's europa manager before he got shot,so sad so unnecessary that he got killed RIP

[thewsca]

Beautiful

[elvisjimpa100]

Elvis and Ellis sounded the same just as Mickey Gilley and Jerry Lee.I love them all but Jimmy was the best in his own way!Thats my opinion!

[JeremyBgood1]

I know jimmy personally its sad hes gone and he sounded the way he did it was a blessing and a curse

[nostalgie70s]

super video merci

[beverly1955100]

Love this song. I love Jimmy Ellis voice. There will never again be another Elvis Presley or Jimmy Ellis, Love ya both and Miss you.

[tskimmi]

What do you think Elvis would have sounded like in 1998?

[robertlaberge]

Elvis always said the other voice he have liked to have was Roy Orbison's.

I bet Roy would have answered Jimmy Ellis.

[Sue2sons]

I am so proud that Jimmy Ellis recorded (Long Black Limosiene) Such a talented man, My uncle wrote that song many years ago and died young, Maybe they are playing music in heaven now, My uncle, Bobby George, would have liked to hear Jimmy sing, God Bless Jimmys family,

[memphis77]

this guy sounded nothing like ELVIS even though he tried and if he was tired of being compaired to him he should have and could have stopped i for one wish he never existed.

[wildhorsestudios1421]

@memphis77 This man couldn't have changed his voice if he had wanted to.

[pattedotson]

WOW, It sortof sounds like Elvis, but then maybe I just want it to be true. WHerever you are, Elvis, I hope you are happy. because you spent a lifetime bringing joy to so many others. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[demonoid1024]

J was the best, any song, any tempo, THE KING is now gone, impersonators come and go, but they cant talk the walk they wanna lead, this man could.

[jangraceland]

Wounderful song and wounderful video I always liked this song because no matter how big Elvis got he never forgot his roots and where he came from and he never let the stardom go to his head he was always the sweet southern boy with good manners and respect for all people. God Bless, Hugs & Smiles, Jan

[demonoid1024]

is it Orion or Elvis...?.....Are you sure...??

[barbdel56]

@demonoid1024 It is most definately Jimmy Ellis aka Orion!!!!

[superelvisgirl]

so awesome i really love your voice

[garamond888]

Orion really sings like Elvis!

[barbdel56]

@garamond888 He was the best and he wasn't even trying to sound like Elvis!!! We lost Jimmy Ellis aka Orion in 1998 to a robber who shot and killed him. Like Elvis fans, Jimmy's fans are trying to keep Jimmy's memory alive and get him the recognition he deserved because so many people associated him with Elvis, he was not recognized as he should have been for his great talent and his own music!!

[nellanormad]

Great video as always. Jimmy was great !

[stutz1973]

Great video.

Thank you for posting this wonderful song.

[miha402]

[djgaz22]

[mskittykatty]

this is a very good tribute. thanks for sharing

[darling155555]

This is elvis check his last perfomences the voice is the same. And listing good to the song its saying we will meet again im down in mississippi.This is his way to make music otherwise he cant. Yes he still makes music under another name i think that guy is Elvis look at his mouth.

[barbdel56]

@darling155555 That was Jimmy Ellis aka Orion who is no longer with us either because some idiot robber shot and killed him in 1998....Jimmy's fan will always remember him just as Elvis's fans remember Elvis..They were both great singers and a great loss to us all.

[39Redwings]

this is elvis

[rontenn]

This is Orion....probably the best Elvis voice ever.El himself would never cut a song like this. RIP Elvis & Orion,  Ron

[sweetysue10]

Not hardly---but a pretty good voice, nonetheless

[thewsca]

Wow.That was amazing.

[pwrk65]

i think this guy was the half brother to Elvis. if not a full brother.. take a look at some of the photos of Vernon the father of Elvis.the likeness is to close for them not to be related..Someone out there must know the truth..

[damron12]

Great song by Jimmy"ORION"Ellis

[jackuup2]

His voice was his own...not trying to sound like Elvis, a rare thing. He respected Elvis alot. Elvis was one of kind and so was Jimmy..a loss for all that both were cut short in life.

[billieconner]

jlmmy ellis was one of the greatest person you would ever want to meet he would take time to talk to you,some of the other singers i have seen had no used for you at all but that was not jimmy he was one of a kind. billie conner

[chaveneau]

Only Elvis, nobody else.

[LewisGrizzard]

Those of you who are posting comments about James Ellis trying to be Elvis, and promoting that image are full of male bovine fecal matter.

Ellis, for years, tried to break from the fact that he sounded like Elvis.......when he couldn't do it he used what he had. Let a good man, who met a tragic end, rest in peace.

[MrHankcole]

@LewisGrizzard lew i never met anyone resembling the description you gave above of people. I never met anyone called Lew neither. We all understand your comments and they are offensive...your not Lew just your comments..Your just Lew

[39Redwings]

this is elvis

[elvis1943]

if this Is a true story or not. Can eny one of us Elvis fans hear it and not wonder. maybe we would just like it to be true. Maybe we would like to beleave that Elvis is some were alive. My doughter siad, Dad Elvis is up in heaven Singing to God. I sure hope that some day when i go to Heaven i can hear him sing to God. I don't think we should worrie if this story is true or not. Thats just my openion. God bless you Elvis, Where ever you are. Thanks so much for sharing this It realy good.

[ElvisPresleyAccount]

Jimmy Ellis in this song is trying to tell people he were Elvis that he faked his death.Jimmy Ellis was the Unknown Artist who tried to fool people he were Elvis alive.Well Elvis he were not.This song is no tribute to Elvis.Its just an other one of those songs where Jimmy Ellis tries to make out he were Elvis.

[ElvisPresleyAccount]

I see my comment above seems to be a bad comment.But its all true.Look up the book Orion.Its about a singer faking his death.Then coming back wearing a mask.Well after the book it became a real life story.Then the Elvis alive conspiracy got started.If it was not for the book Orion there would never of been the Elvis alive conspiracy.And there may never of been a Jimmy Ellis.

[ElvisPresleyAccount]

Trust me when I say this Jimmy Ellis had a big part in the whole Elvis alive conspiracy for though many were trying to convince others he were the real Elvis.Then it came about there were two Orions one Elvis and one Jimmy.Well with this Elvis alive conspiracy they would make up anything to make money.

[TinyHands41]

It would be better "to believe" ElvisPresleyAccount I mean you're adding your comment like you would know the truth I don't think that's a real good idea. Jimmy didn't fool people I think he tried to make his own thing but his voice was a blessing and a curse that's hiw own words therfore people thought he would be Elvis he never had the opportunity to make his own thing that's my opinion.

[barbdel56]

@ElvisPresleyAccount Jimmy Ellis was singing & recording long before the book came out. Anyone who had ever seen either one of them would have known that Jimmy was not Elvis, Jimmy was 6'3" where Elvis was only 5'11". Jimmy was taller than Elvis in his flat boots than Elvis was in heels..And Jimmy's voice is simular but yet different. His fans can tell the difference...it's a shame that Elvis fans can't.....a true fan knows the difference!

[wildhorsestudios1421]

@barbdel56 It's not true Elvis fans that can't tell the difference. There's something inside of some folks that won't let them see the truth, the light that Elvis died. And they want to hang on wether it be to the 2 Orion theory or Jon Cotner or Burrows or whatever. At least Jimmy eventually let people know who he really was.

[tcbOrion]

ElvisPresleyAccount, Jimmy never did want to wear that mask, It was a forced upon him by his managers. They seen the opertunity and jumped on it. People's assumption is not his fault. He never did claim to be Elvis. Jimmy may not have made it if not for the book. But it gave the world some great music and rememberance to the likeness. So it hurt no one but Jimmy himself, and as I said Jimmy didnt want to do it in the first place. He wanted to be known for himself, not someone he sound like. STC

[jload1]

I get goosebumps everytime I hear this song.I know it's not Elvis,but it is the closest thing to him.God Bless you Elvis,and Jimmy.

May you both rest in peace,and watch over us,along with our loved ones in heaven,be our Guardian Angels.

[Gasoline85]

Often when I listen to his songs, I have to remind myself that it's not actually Elvis singing.

[TinyHands41]

Hello tcbOrion

Well maybe people should listen to the song

I'm not trying to be like Elvis that song

say's everything.I like that song very well !!

[bevotaylor]

HORIZON- thank you for this moving tribute of two southern artists...Elvis the King and Alabama boy Jimmy Ellis who died so needlessly. Can you tell me who wrote the lyrics and music?

[damron13]

Like I said, no one can sing better than MYYYY SUPER JIMMMMEY, no one OK!

Bless,Frweirnds,STC,Allen

[VolkerStockel]

I saw him one time performing in Memphis.

That was fantastic.I bought records and CD`s from him. Made me dreaming that Elvis could still be alive. Even Elvis was gone just to imagine.

But Elvis was, is and will be the King forever, Elvis had the best voice ever.

[NobodyNoticedIt77]

i heard this song first time a few months ago here in YouTube..really nice tribute from Orion. I like a lot his voice.. i know it is his own voice. and not try to be Elvis!

But Elvis forever!!

r.i.p. Elvis and Orion

[Gasoline85]

It's a very beautiful tribute. Magnificent voice.

[stallion1972jo]

beutiful song just love it to pieces

[moonjumpr]

"You know, I really do miss you folks." Almost teared up. I think Elvis would weep if he could see how so many have paid tribute and continue to adore him. This man who thought he'd be forgotten, and terrified over the 1977 tell-all book. None of it mattered ... Beautiful job.

[damron12]

Great tribute to ELVIS & a great song from Steven Slivers AKA Jimmy"ORION"Ellis

[jondj1]

Good video, good song, good job ....

[stallion1972jo]
