  • Music gets a straight connection to our soul . This is the reason of being so emotional when we hear such wonderful performers like them. We come alive. Thank you for uploading it.

    G-d bless

  • Awesome song....thanks babe for sharing it with me. now your going to play it!!!

    sasha

  • elvis did good job on this song. thanks for the vid.

  • Don't forget, it's not just Whittaker's version - he co-wrote it! This is a nice cover tho.

  • I've heard Rogers version, which is great, but Elvis's version has made this an Elvis Song! thanks Elvis for giving us so many great songs to listen to! we miss you!

  • There isn't a singer in this World I love more than Elvis, but there were a few songs he should have avoided; this is one of them (this is Roger's song).....

  • @twinflame1000 I have to agree. Elvis treats this as just another romantic song and misses the raw emotion that Roger brings to it. I can't listen to the original without a tear in my eye.

  • @twinflame1000 I agree this song belongs to Roger Whittaker

  • Wow. I was just listening to the original, which just can't be topped. But this was awesome in a different kind of way. He was the best romantic singer of all time, and thanks for sharing this! I didn't know he'd done it.

  • One of my Favs by the King

  • roger whittaker's version is better!!!!

  • @LadyScorpio39 i agree with you

  • @MegaJackbest

    thanks!. there's no way this elvis version comes close to rogers whittakers! whittakers is way better. his gentle and soothing voice suits the song more.

  • this big bad dude, army vet, karate expert, could sing any damn thing. elvis was a man, not a gay skinny little shit, man ole man what a voice and looks, there can be only one

  • I thought I had all of his music. How did I miss this masterpiece?

  • beutifull!

  • Склоняю колени перед его талантом, Элвис живее всех живых!!!

  • I like to think that Elvis sang this for all those who loved him in England like me who sadly never got to see him live on English land, and we are all the poorer for this.Nonetheless we love him still,just the greatest always.

  • elvis por siempre 

  • WOW, I never knew Elvis covered this and as ususal, he hits it out of the park!

  • Who ever said Elvis was through in '76. Listen to his gorgeous voice on this track. With all due respect to Roger's original version, THIS IS IT for me. Listen how he mounts the scales on "how bitter will be this last farewell." Can this be the same voice that gave us "Jailhouse Rock" twenty years earlier?! YES IT IS! And whoever produced this lovely video to go along with the song loves The King as much as I do. FIVE STAR PRODUCTION and most deserving of the thousands of hits its received.

  • Elvis - you were brilliant - still miss you so much!!

  • WOW!!!! What a song and what a "golden performer"!!!!  Never been anything like him before or after HIM!!!!!!!!

  • @Jan007golden So true! Thanks for watching and your comment: TCB

  • The Best singer ever there was, his songs will ever die

  • excellent post  thank you

  • +Rest In Peace King+

  • may the man rest in pece

  • Elvis "Last farewell" will always be beautifull, for the songs is beautifull and even thou we hate to say farewell, elvis will always live on in our hearts forever....

  • Roger's version is the definitive work for sure, but Elvis does a fantastic job, and puts his own twist on it, as only Elvis can. Great song, that will live forever.

  • You can bet the farm - that EVERY songwriter was praying that Elvis would record their song!!! It was a guarentee of a million seller!!!!!!!

  • the king only person who can blow everyone elses versions away look at my way or what now my love the greatest king in any respect his fans will lremain always

  • Logging in from Wellington, New Zealand. I prefer the Elvis version. I only heard it for the first time about twelve years ago and prior to that I could not have imagined that anyone would do it better than Roger Whittaker who I saw live at the London Palladium in 1973.

  • Love this song .Thanks

  • As much as I enjoyed Elvis' version of this, the only person who can do justice to this song is Roger Whittaker!

  • good version

  • I guess most of us like the original version by Roger Whittaker, But Elvis still does a wonderful job as always!

  • Love this song <3 Thankyou so much

  • Love this song so much <3<3<3 Thankyou so much !

  • They don't call him the king for nothing.

  • Brilliant...never heard this, by Elvis. Thanks!

  • AWESOME would Love to have heard and seen him do this in person. I wasen't as rich or fortunate to see him in concerts everywhere I suppose that was never to be but I feel the closeness I have had with Elvis was one of a higher power and he certainly knew what and who that power was. It never surprised me that he was able as one of his men said to part the rain and bring out the sunlight. with FAITH IN GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE. ELVIS HAD FAITH IN GOD AND THEN SOME. Hugs Bobbie

  • I never expected to like this, as I'm not a huge Elvis fan and I love the Roger Whittaker version. But this is beautiful. Really lovely.

  • Well Done Thanks for uploading this Wonderful song. God Bless Elvis, for we'll never again hear such music form a Man who could sing anything.. 

  • I admit to preferring Roger Whittaker's version, but having said that, I also find Elvis's version to be very moving, and I really love this video tribute to The King. Thanks for posting this great memory to a polished performer who died too young.

  • @stellabystars Thank you for your comment, TCB

  • @stellabystars I, too, prefer Roger's version, but this is just beautiful. It would have been even better if he had been the only one singing...no back up singers. They actually detract from the song. His voice alone brings out the emotion. What a beautiful voice that man had.

  • @msymsed Thank you for your comment, I think the Elvis version is great, but everyone has their point of view and I like to know! Thank you for comment. TCB

  • @msymsed totally agree, much too much backing singers. As if Elvis needs help! lol I think this is why Rogers version is slightly better, his voice too is best un-meddled with.

  • @stellabystars Elvis heard Whittaker's version and loved it. Loved it so much he had it played back to him more than a few times (much to the chagrin of those around him LOL). So, having said that, Elvis recorded it and gave it the Elvis touch!!

  • This is the true King there will never be another.ive listened and tried to copy his voice since i was 13 and tho i'll never be anything like his voice,could you please check out my vocal tribute to the king as well as Johnny Cash,Louie Armstrong and more to come!!Let me know how i did Much love and God Bless!!!
