@musicF66 I know it was super fucked up but really??? There are celebs who have done alot worse and when they get caught on it they don't face near the conseqeuncs he's getting. 2pac for example was a rapist, woman beater, drug dealer and such and his career went along fine UNTOUCHED. Same for Jay-Z, Lil Wayne and Charlie Sheen (who was put in jail and he still is the highest paid star on one of the best shows.) I think the whole thing is hypocritical.
yeah, if I'd beat you, so your face would swell to the shape of ass, and later on I would apologize, would you be so tolerant for me, as you are for Chris Brown? fuck off too.
okay just to clear up this whole racist thing. elvis wasnt racist where do u think he learned how to sing from he used to hang out at jazz places one of his best friends was black. straighten out ur fact!
In a bio, it said he wasn't to fond of african american's. Also he stole songs form african american artists. "Hound dog" was written by a black woman.
first of all, copyright laws wasn't the same back then, so pretty much everyone did each others songs, and secondly, Elvis never wrote or claimed to have written a single song for himself, much like I'm sure Britney spears doesn't write her songs either. Nothing strange about that.
i love this but i thouhgt hed put more of a modern spin on it - e tried to at the end. obviouslt no one could do it as well as elvis but this is still really good. Half of the dancers seemed a bit bored tho, coz of th slow beat.
So there is no more confusion. Yes Elvis was a racist. Look up some of his old interviews. He said in a couple that "the only thing a black can do for him is shine his shoes." It does not take away from the fact that Elvis was a wonderful singer and performer, but yes he was a racist. Now I am black, but I love Elvis. I just have to face the fact that that is just how many whites thought back then, but that does not take away from his music. Elvis was great. No doubts about it.
Elvis is Elvis and Chris Brown is C.B, now i can only imagine that the people who made this performance happen went looking for a talented dancer and singer.Who is fairly young.People also need to remember that Elvis's music was highly influenced by blues and soul.with the runs he performs and all.So with saying that C.B did a damn goob job
This wasnt good, im dissapointed, i dont care bout his age, he shouldent have done it in the first place, like chris though he rules! but ye, and there wasnt enough bass which just made it a bit ewy lol
Someone said elvis sing and dance hello it was a movie and chirs did it live dancings and singing give the young men his props damn!!!!!! P.S. I am a big Elvis fan and he did good ONE!!!!
how old is he? 18??? give him a break...sure its not Elvis, but I give him props for trying! It really wasn't that bad. I found it quite entertaining actually!
Concur dstarr201. Voice didn't quite have the easy lilt Elvis had, plus his fancy dance moves were done only when he wasn't singing unlike Elvis who performed both in great measure. BUT - still a great homage nonetheless. Love seeing these newer entertainers give respect where its due! As they should to btw!
he did a good job preforming. of course hes not gonna be like elvis but he stll did good dancing like him and still doing his style. keep up the great work chris. your really cute and youll never go out of style!!!
omg chirs brown sound so good!!!!!!!! ahhhhhh!!!!! dont you dam forget that chirs brown is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sexy
This is really, really good, and entertaining but I have one big problem. I can't understand a damn thing Chris is saying until the chorus. I wish he would have articulated better!
I LOVE THIS!!! Don't get me wrong it's nothing like elvis but nobody can be like him, and I don't think it's fair to compare their performances because I don't think he was trying to do it like Elvis, just honor the song.Also, Chris Brown is such a cutie-pie, and so talented, but he's still young and I'd assume learning how to better his talent everyday so people should stop judging him and just enjoy the video for what it is.
This performance shows why he can't touch Usher. Watch Ushers performance on this show! Don't get me wrong, I like CB he is a great dancer but he has a lot to learn vocally. People say his voice isn't strong b.c. he dances too, well, look at these performers then decide, Michael Jackson, Usher, and Beyonce! That is just a few people to choose from. Practice like Usher, he jumps around while singing to prepare for the rigors of singing and dancing. CB will be a good artist for years to come!
My point is that Usher can sing live while dancing... Chris is not there yet, and he doesn't have the greatest singing chops (he is 10 times better than Ciara I must say!) to start with. I think he will be a good performer for a long time... his live perfomances would be a lot better if he would practice singing while dancing.
this is the 1st time i seen this negro sing a whole song w/o lip-singing.........but y'all noticed he didn't really dance, that's cuz he can't sing and dance @ da same time
You should check his BET Awards performance from a few years back. He didn't lip-sync that one. He normally lip-syncs when performing for MTV and other popular award shows like that, cause shows like that only care about the performance....as in just the dancing, but to me he comes across looking worse because award shows like that have larger audiences, and thats when he should be really singing....so he can show people what he really can do, cause we all know he can dance.
I know this sounds crazy but Elvis Presley was pretty good looking younger and I've always loved his voice! I like how he changed his style but I do agree with some others about how it's not as good as Elvis Presley's but most originals are always the best! But Chris still rocks! =)
i think chris is the best performer of all time simply because he can do some many different things. Sure he doesnt sound that good live but hes dancing his ass off. Try running and singing at the same time.
bc he sings the original idiot. A song can only be song the best by the original singer. Bc u resing the song to sound like that people.(like the song)
where is the carisma.. nah people chris i quality but elvis ha ha chris is not and never will be in the same league.... there is no one alive today who could come close............. fact usher proformance was the best of the night quality a real proformer......
Why is everyone saying he didn't do well? He did great for a rock type song when his vocals are strictly R&B type vocals, and it sounded absolutely great, and the audience did love it, plus his dancing was on point as ususal. And that's the way he supposed to sang it with the rock melody, Justin has a r&b type of voice too but you guys are saying he would've did better please!!! Hating and being biased is a disease I see.
Chrfis did a wonderful job. I think this song was difficult for him to sing for his voice which would probably explain him being out of breath towards the end. But I think he sounds good like this.
w0w ders s0 much haters ! chris br0wn was wun 0f da best perf0rmers 0f da wh0le nite ! & f0r u dat say hes "m0ckinq" elvis uhhmm . n0 hes n0 . he`s jus perf0rminq qun 0f his s0nqs . like evrywun else perf0rmed 2 s0me0ne dat niqht . s0 i dun qet wuh pe0ple are havin a heart attack 0va . he was s0 q00d & chanqed his v0ice & made it s0und s0 q00d . he danced supa q00d 2 ! dun w0rry chris ! u were supa q00d ! & ur fine as hell & really talented ! iq0n0re da haters ! dey jus jel0us !
great job chris i hope i can download that somewhere, i think it was really difficult for him 2 sing like that and for it to sound good to, that's amazing! ignore the haterz chris, remember wat u alwayz say "the haterz make u do better" i still support u boo! lol
well that's the music from the original song so it's not chris's fault...i myself find it 2 be kinda catchy..lol but great job chris and ur voice sounds o so sexy like that!
CHRiS BROWN DID AN AWESOME JOB!! FUCK WHO EVER DiSAGREES!!! ELViS iS STiLL TH KiNG OF ROCK!! NO 1 CAN TOP HiM,BUT CHRiS GOOD A HELL OF A JOB!! BECAUSE ELViS iS HARD TO SOUND LiKE,HE HAS A UNiQUE VOiCE AND FOR CHRIS TO SOUND AND DANCE THAT GOOD!! HE DESERVES THE BEST,FORGET THE HATERS CHRiS,i SUPPORT YOU!
the problem with this is the music lacks energy. the music supervisor should be shot. chris and the dancers are great the music is asleep at the wheel. wheres the beat? wheres the energy? this was a slammin song when elvis did it. this is worse than a karaoke version of the track. ick!
solid performance, but there was too much show toons and not enough rock. chris browns vocals were good, but the orchestra arangement just didnt match with chris or elvis's singing.
What a mockery!! If Elvis were around he would have knocked this silly fool right off the stage!! "Jailhouse Rock" is not a R&B song! I think Lisa Maria was just watching this in horror!
All these assholes did was to make a mockery of great classic film songs!! Not a tribute!!
@ Celluloidkid: he wasn't mocking Elvis!! He obvioulsly came because he wanted to right? And he chose the song right? Then he did it all in good intentions!! People are just posting insults because their prejudice like you! And I didn't hear a single rap part!!
it seemed like the song was holding him back....it definitely wasn't his style. the producers of the show assigned the themes to each artist. it was outta his hands people!
Damichel0 this is to you fuck to hoe chris brown is way motha fuckin better then you so stop fucking hating and you no u jus sayin this on the internet jus cuz aint nobody gone bit yo azz but baby plz let me tell i sho aint scared
he doesn't sound bad....i expected alot worse based on what ii had ehard about this performance. Its okay, this song doesn'r call for alot of extra vocalising. He sang it straight, and was on pitch. he got a lil winded but thats to be expected, that was good to me.
All these people talkin shit about his voice...hmmm...he doesn't sound bad to me at all in this performance. And usually I'm disappointed by his vocals. But he has the growl necessary for the song, and he's keeping on pitch. It's actually one of his better performances. I thought it was good. And usually I think his vocals are sub-par.
i agree, the vocals aren't that bad, they probably might not like it cause its elvis and chris brown is doing elvis...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh. the only critique i would have is just the r&b tone it has to it, but thats just chris's style.
IRONIC!

the problem with this is the music lacks energy. the music supervisor should be shot. chris and the dancers are great the music is asleep at the wheel. wheres the beat? wheres the energy? this was a slammin song when elvis did it. this is worse than a karaoke version of the track. ick!

solid performance, but there was too much show toons and not enough rock. chris browns vocals were good, but the orchestra arangement just didnt match with chris or elvis's singing.

What a mockery!! If Elvis were around he would have knocked this silly fool right off the stage!! "Jailhouse Rock" is not a R&B song! I think Lisa Maria was just watching this in horror!
All these assholes did was to make a mockery of great classic film songs!! Not a tribute!!
Celluloidkid 4 years ago
@ Celluloidkid: he wasn't mocking Elvis!! He obvioulsly came because he wanted to right? And he chose the song right? Then he did it all in good intentions!! People are just posting insults because their prejudice like you! And I didn't hear a single rap part!!

it seemed like the song was holding him back....it definitely wasn't his style. the producers of the show assigned the themes to each artist. it was outta his hands people!

he doesn't sound bad....i expected alot worse based on what ii had ehard about this performance. Its okay, this song doesn'r call for alot of extra vocalising. He sang it straight, and was on pitch. he got a lil winded but thats to be expected, that was good to me.

All these people talkin shit about his voice...hmmm...he doesn't sound bad to me at all in this performance. And usually I'm disappointed by his vocals. But he has the growl necessary for the song, and he's keeping on pitch. It's actually one of his better performances. I thought it was good. And usually I think his vocals are sub-par.
notfem 4 years ago 2
i agree, the vocals aren't that bad, they probably might not like it cause its elvis and chris brown is doing elvis...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh. the only critique i would have is just the r&b tone it has to it, but thats just chris's style.
