Elvis & Ann-Margret in Love in las Vegas - "The Climb"

[hebneh]

Elvis couldn't get into a serious relationship with Ann-Margret; Priscilla was literally waiting for him at home. She'd been living at Graceland for years by then, although it was never publicized and no one knew about it till years after his death. Even though Priscilla was in the same house with him, and had been since about the age of 15 (!), almost certainly they didn't have sex till they were married in 1967.

[hebneh]

Cheek to cheek - aaahh, toes to toes

Here's a dance -

That you do, on a dime

Knees to knees - aaahh, nose to nose

Hardly move, and you're doin' the -

Cliiiimb!

[hebneh]

Aaaaahhhh, shucks!

Round & round - aaahh, side to side

Hardly move, and you're doin' the -

Squatty-watty...

Hardly move, and you're doin' the -

Squat!

Hardly move, and you're doin' the -

Cliiiiiiimb!

ILS AURAIENT DU SE MARIER TOUS LES DEUX !!! TROP BEAUX !!!!

[trnjana]

Лас Вегасу су потребна више таквих места са снимка и више рулета само са једном нулом.

[trnjana]

Las Vegas needs more places like this on video and more roulettes with only one zero.

[LORRIEVIVALASVEGAS]

FABULOUS!! ******

Lov`n ELVIS!!!!

Awesome post. Laura

[rodeeman]

Hi there, is anybody out there who knows the complete lyrics?

[bronson1921]

Thanks for this upload, its one of my favourite scenes in the film. The Forte Four was formerly a gospel quartet group that went under the name of The Jubilee Four(I have one of their LPs) and prior to that they were known as The Jubilaires in the 1940s. If I am not mistaken, this great movie has the distinction of an African-American Gospel quartet having a scene in an Elvis film.

The song "The Climb" was wrtten by the dynamic duo, Jerry Leiber & Mike Stoller.

Many thanks for this upload!!

[rodeeman]

@bronson1921 : hey thanks for this informative feedback! very interesting and always stunning what infos comes to front as a reaction to this video. thx and bye! R.

[zeezycel]

And here they say tektonik is a ridiculous dance lol

[rodeeman]

@zeezycel : Tektonik IS ridiculous! hahaha...how can u compare it with the King's dance?? ;)

[zeezycel]

@rodeeman lol and it is why I tell it lol 'twas humour...well supposed to be ;p

I wouldn't dare to touch the King awesomeness ;)

[rodeeman]

@zeezycel ;-) dont mess with the king! lol.

[Sunnyleinchen123]

elvis is (was) hot

[utuberinus]

They were hot together!  I mean H-O-T!!!

[pulmon66]

The leads singer is George MacFadden. The back up voices one hears are those of the Jordanaires, with Elvis´ also added, for extra measure

[almarose73]

THEY MADE SUCH A BEATIFUL COUPLE!!!

[AbbbasGirl]

Love the chemistry between Ann Margaret and Elvis!

[rodeeman]

@AbbbasGirl : It was so clear...the were THE Couple!!

[tmamone83]

I love the guy with the deep voice. He's got bigger eyes than Bernie Mac! "Aaah, toes to toes."

[rodeeman]

@tmamone83 : hahaha!

[rowsdower12]

@tmamone83 From the special edition of this movie it was noted that those guys in the suits weren't really singing. They were singing to playback of another back up group. And I believe the commentator said they were white. Interesting. Good song.

[acehighpat]

@rowsdower12 That's correct. The group that actually performs that song is a surf rock group called The Forte Four. What is odd is that the gentlemen that were lipsyncing in the film WERE an actual singing group.

[rowsdower12]

@acehighpat Yeah that is odd. Maybe they had a favor to sing for the movie. I think they had Elvis connections. which is a give-in. Regardless good stuff.

[acehighpat]

@rowsdower12 Agreed and it plays so much better in letterbox too.

[elvisuk]

you can se the sexual chemistry in this clip..... yeehaaa.....lol

[mphsriley]

they were SO in love ! he might have lived longer if he had married her !

[MichaelJB213]

You can tell in this part that they were in love with each other. They didnt have to act...

[195477]

I have alternate versions of this on CD,Elvis and Ann ...pre John and Olivia.

[rodeeman]

@195477 : HI, what you mean alternate versions? could you post it? as mp3 please?

[Shelby62292]

I remember watching this when I was about 8 or 9 & I remember watching it with my Papaw & I remember he always used to crack up at this part of the movie. Lol This is probably my 2nd favorite Elvis movie. The 1st would be Change of Habit (:

[JWindle15]

Great video, this song rocks! I had been wanting to have it on CD for a long time. Finally a few years ago they released a new updated version of the soundtrack with this song on it. It is from the Fallow That Dream series of releases. It has the entire version of the song on there. Elvis actually sings backup on the track.

[LehmanGroup]

thanks so much for putting this up. ive been looking all over the web for this scene of this movie. thats my grandfather 2nd man from the left. and its very hard to find the movies that he was in because how old they are. he was one of the orignal members of the Golden Gate Quartet. Willie(Bill)Johnson.

[rodeeman]

great! cool to know this! I love the sound of the Quartet! Thats my favorite scene, since I watched this movie as a child.

[comrabure]

i could watch this movie everyday for the rest of my life and be very happy

[craigsimz]

dude thanks for putting this up! i never get enough of that big man's voice...what a great slow, dirty funky song.

[rodeeman]

thats it man...a shame this song had no place in the soundtrack album!! how can they forget to release this!?? so good to listen this deep voice!!

[stevebeagle]
