Hey there, aww man what a class act he still is after all these years. God bless you Elvis. And thank you lots for posting this up. I was listening to Moby and heard this track and just thought 'i wonder', so i just typed it in on its own and this popped up. Great to hear this was a classic before anyone else. God bless yah, thanks again as you've put a smile on my face and made my days. :D
Can't see how anyone could dislike this song. Thanks Jackie for this wonderful song. Please watch me sing Elvis's Reach Out to Jesus,if you get time. love to all. Dan Dell
I really like the elvis version, I like the Gospel-sounding vibe it gives off, but I really think I prefer the more folky- sounding, deeper, slower version that Johnny Cash did. Both are amazing, though.
This is surely about cause & effect what you do comes back...so we better do good cause if we do bad it'll come back triple...Peace via Musi VIVA MARIA!
@LesMichael He wrote "You'll Be Gone" with Red West. He also created the title of a song and asked his friend to write it called "That's Someone You Never Forget".
@paulita0513 It's not about the songs he wrote but about how he interprets them and with his talent sings them with soul and feeling causing goose bumps on everyone's skin...Peace via Music VIVA MARIA!
Tom Jones just released an excellent version of this on his new cd, Praise and Blame. It really is something. The whole cd is great. Quite the Revelation.
@fmkenshin Yeah. His rendition is a dark gospel version of the original. In his version, God is an unrelenting force of vengeance to sinners that they can't run nor hid from him dishing out punishment. A lot of stomping, hand clapping and a guitar.
@fmkenshin yeah, in every source it says the songwriter is traditional, so johnny may or may not have been trying to cover a song as much as just playing a traditional song
it's also been recorded by odetta and the blind boys of alabama.
shakeahand1, I could not have said it any truer, blunter or straightforward...One word for this song...OWNED....Two words for this song....TRUE THAT...Man, talk about a message..whew...And he don't cull his mission either...listen hard all of those who are unfamiliar with this song/this side of Elvis...STRAIGHT UP WORD
Love this song....it reinforces to me that when someone mistreats you that you are not to seek revenge! God will take care of it! "May the Lord judge between you and me. And may the Lord avenge the wrongs you have done to me, but my hand will not touch you." 1 Samuel 24:12
Author Unknown. Elvis recorded this traditional gospel song on May 25, 1966 at RCAs Nashville Studios at the first recording produced by Felton Jarvis. Run On was the first song recorded during the session. It is available on Amazing Grace: His Greatest Sacred Songs and Artist of the Century
This is such a very fun, groovy and marvelous song. It's one of my all time favorite gospel songs. Elvis loved gospel music with all of his heart and no one will ever be able to sing gospel songs as well or better than Elvis did. As you know, the very first Elvis album that this song appeared on was "How Great Thou Art". I'm still waiting for the FTD label to issue a two disc deluxe edition of this classic Elvis album. This video totally rocked in every way, 10 Stars as always Jackie.
Would this happen to be Jackie that use to work at tejas in Hereford Texas? Elvis signature on your ankle?
