I get chills and tears in my eyes every time I hear and watch Elvis. And i am only 17, Its AMAZING how someone from 30-50 years ago can effect me now. He will always be the greatest entertainer to ever live. He was beautiful, kind, humble, generous, charming, gifted, and devoted to God. No one will ever come CLOSE to reaching his standards and level of perfection and talent.

God Bless! Elvis is home now! <3

Easily the best version of this song on youtube. Probably ever. That's just the way Elvis did things.

Wow, you are truly lucky to have seen him live, and to have that handkerchief. I would have done anything to see him! I'll always be a fan, no matter what.

Hi Christine, I appreciate your comment about Elvis. I am always so inspired to read what younger people have to say about the big E( and I'm not talking about Elvin Hayes). I had the pivelidge to see Elvis live in 1977 and he was quite a singer though his health was failing, his voice made the cymbals rattle when he went high.I still have his embroidered handkerchief that he wiped the sweat off his face with, and threw it out into the audience. Thanks again for the inspiring comment.

I meant detractor which means someone who slags someone off. Also I don't think he would interfere in his daughters private life. She was an independent grown woman when she started going out with Micheal Jackson.

[matizzle32]

Learn to read. Did I say he would hate Michael Jackson? NO. I said he would hate to see his daughter marry such a peculiar person. And what the hell is a dractor? Get literate before you talk with me.

How come buddhists, hindus, sikhs, jains etc do not follow Jesus then? And how come the character of Jesus resembles other ancient mythical characters so much like the Greek Godman Zeus and the Egyptian Godman Horus? And how come he never came back as he promised to? Come on the Jesus story is just one of a long line of mythical Godmen stories.
