I think you did a wonderful job putting this together, and appreciate all of your hard work. Wayne, did write the lyrics to this song around the letter that he bought out of the Souteby auction. He and Elvis were very close friends and Wayne did a great job on this as a tribute to the KING!! Thank you for posting this....
Oh dear God, I love and miss you so much darling Elvis, life is not the same without you, you will never be replace, no one will ever be good enough to come even close to replacing you. love and miss you always and forever.
This song,that note,just goes to prove Elvis was a prisoner of his own fame. He didnt want it,he wanted to be with his family. He wanted to go home. On August 16,1977 the Lord took Elvis home and he is with his Mom,Dad and Jesse now. He will be joined by Pricilla and Lisa Marie one day and thats when Elvis will trully be home. God Bless you Elvis.
Its been a lonf time since I have listened to the words of this song again. It is truly a beautiful song and a beautiful PRAYER to the only one he could ever really tell everything and know that it would never be revealed to another. The relationship ELVIS had with the LORD far exceeds what even his Lisa Marie is aware of. LISA MARIE I have been trying to get a messege to you sweetie for several years. about your dad. Its has to do with his walk with GOD Kel know how to reach me. Hugs Bobbie.
Absolutely the best tribute song and way to summarize the depth of Elvis' thoughts in the rawest form of emotions. God bless you Wayne Newton for knowing what to do with these words and for treating them respectfully.
Wayne Newton did write the song and finished what ELVIS himself could not finish. His hope was gone , his life was shattered, he had been betrayed by his closest friends. his marriage was over, most of all his mother had passed away, and he was a prisoner in his own home. The scriptures say LOVE COVERS A MULTITUDE OF SINS. ELVIS love for the people who surrounded him and his LOVE for the GIFT he had been given, and the desire to finish well what GOD had sent him to do. What more can anyone say.
Its Okay utmom. It is in a sense, Wayne's version of Elvis' letter.......because the song was his interpretation of the note he wrote found in the trash. nice tribute to the King.
hi utmom2008 Very good video. We will never know this side of Heaven how many hearts Elvis affected in the world with his gospel music and even with his death. He was not perfect but he was human and we loved him.
so sad, when elvis cried out to God, Help me Lord, God heard his cry and felt his lonliness and then God knew what was best for Elvis and HE took him home to be with HIM, the KING OF KINGS. rest in peace, love you forever ELVIS.

don't worry ...E is heaven eating his flan cake and carving the letter E in his forhead....wishing he could talk to his hot dog friend from germany with alot of saurkraut....people get a grip the king didn;t write any letter he couldn't read or write
@BearStar1 why are you reducing yourself to his level. you're right. he is a jerk. but don't give in to him. that's exactly what he wanted. I think this song is beautiful. I had never heard it before, and I absolutely adore wayne newton. one of the most beautiful tributes I've ever heard
Beautiful tribute to Elvis. If only his so called friends like Lamar Fike and Sonny West were as loyal to Elvis as his fans are. God Bless you Elvis we love you.
Bless you Rosanne(UTMOM2008), may you rest in peace my friend.....wonderful video you made before your life ended so suddenly......only 50 years old........cry
@drunkskunk005 my message to you has slipped one line todwn. once more, what a wonderful, great comment you have made on elvis. as a huge, huge fan of him i can only agree and thank you for your kind words on this truly unbelievable great entertainer and man that he was
@charlotte946 Tha;nks...I am a firm believer that Elvis cannot be matched as an entertainer. He was truly one of a kind in a world where the entertainers are a dime a dozen.
This is not "version" of Wayne Newton for "The Elvis Letter." It was found by maid in room trash. It was proved to be handwriting of Elvis Presley and Wayne Newton bought it, then put it to music.
this is a great video Elvis would be proud of your work. I'm new here to you tube and this was the first video i found in my search.this letter was written in 76 in las vegas?
Appreciate you give us this version of "The Elvis Letter" sung by Wayne Newton, another unusual performer and Las Vegas "tradition." You know I want lyrics.
totally beautiful, and proof that you need peace in your soul to make you happy because all the money in the world can't buy that. I think some of the world's richest people are some of the loneliest too. Thanks for sharing Toni!
Two words utmom2008: Loved this!.... the photos, the timing -- superb. Thank you!
