Think about it. He did two shows a night, for a month at the time in Vegas! No wonder he got bored to death with this routine. This performance is simply a killer. The composer of this song, Tony Joe White, was honoured when he heard that Elvis included this song in his repertoire. Elvis was a mover and a a shaker. No one around today comes close.
The real southern name for that plant is POTE SALAT DON'T BELIEVE ME---Look it up in plant reference books like I have here at the house or look it up in the dictionary--there's NO plant actually named polk salad
@barryscooper Like I said Elvis was good at what he did, but for this one song, I just feel Tony Joe White had a better style for it when singing it, as he did write it.
Lounge lizard, I think not! He was and is an original! He set the standard for the Las Vegas acts. And he could move like nobody's business!!!!! Very sexy!
Elvis could get a Saints heart pumping...with the way he moved and song...He was such a special person....He had a magnetism that drew you to him like a moth to a Flame...Like once you had a taste you were hooked for life...Star Struck...Thee Best!! Jessie/Jan xxxx
Adoro este homem há mais de 20 anos e ouço sempre as musicas dele. Quando vejo os vídeos, parece que ele está vivo ... ele foi um ser único em todos os aspectos. Para além de ser o homem mais bonito do planeta!
Yall, its not Poke Salad, cause obviously some people around here aren't from the South, specifically Mississippi and Tennessee, where Elvis was from, its called POKESALAT. Look it up there is even a fair that he used to frequently go to in a small town called Arab, Alabama for the stuff.
~Catforu~ Thank ya thank ya very much for posting this great video of him..I love this song and heard him sing it many times around Tupelo and close to where I live in the Louisiana Bayou---He used to say this song was written with me in mind...lol..Keep up your good work and you'll surely be blessed....
you know my grandma use to go get polk salad ...her name was Annie but thats all i can relate to the song (oh though she did put that stuff in a paper grocery bag to bring it back to the house to cook it)
@billyagio1 Jackson married Elvis daughter and had hired Elvis personnels to work fo him! plus he had lots of Elvis influence can't beat Elvis spirit boy in fact no elvis no jacko n whatever he represents!
This song never seems to end. I always fast forwarded past this song on my VHS. It's much quicker doing so on the DVD. Great overall concert though, and he moves well in this song.
The ultimate bad-ass! Noone has ever had that good/bad-combination that Elvis had. Voice, looks, moves and a charisma that has people flocking to his home 33 years after he left us. The King forever and ever. What a shame/disgrace that he never got to tour the world. The only problem with that is that you would have to be prepared to kill to get tickets....!
What a man.....Absolutely gorgeous looking, intelligent, funny, kind, great dresser, fab physique,great heart, fantastic entertainer and unbelievable voice man he had it all......
I think things that made him so SUPER great is that he had a little somethin as far as entertainment for everyone. He was Rock, he was roll,he was country, R/B"s Gospel. Just about everything. He had looks that guys envied, that almost all women loved, the moves, the voice, the style, and the list goes on. this song is my most favorite. Elvis at his best. Also, Mystery Train amongst alot of others.
There is a scottish man i know who applied for britains got talent who sang elvis's If i can dream, AMAZING! I couldn't believe he didn't even get in! If you get the chance have a listen for yourself..... it will blow you away! search britains got talent reject dave lennard. Thanks!
Marckymarc71 The card that he is reading is definitely the lyrics to the next song, Elvis often needed reminders of songs he had only just learned, in this case polk salad annie.
This fellas seems good to me. Good mornings. Is that correct ?Famous mans ? ElivsPresley - famous mans ? Is this correct ? Most famous mans ? We should of us like some All Elvis Presley ? Like, Dig ? Is that it ? somethings is good. Some Kings like rock and rolls.
For some reason I can't imagine this guy wearing a shirt with an Ivy League button down collar. I think about that every time I'm in the mall shopping for clothes and get mad at the selection of shirts -- Polo, Hilfiger, Nautica, etc. $#@ those button down collars! Thirty years of button down collars! I can't take it ahymore! Take me back to the designer suits of the disco era and all the great clothes of the 60's.
THE KING! There will NEVER be anyone to come close to Elvis. The man invented stage presence!
