She does the exact same version that Elvis did. I wonder if they reviewed Elvis tapes to do this.

Carola is a big fan of Elvis så I'm sure she had watched his performances many times before doing this. :)

Carola has done interpretations of many more Elvis songs if you're interested. She recently did a whole concert with Elvis- and Barbra Streisand songs. :)

WoW !!!!

what a voice she has.

I'm sure she would have floored Elvis had he been fortunate enough to witness this performance.

Absolute magic.

Actually she once met Elvis' guitarist and he said that Elvis would have loved her, hehe. :) She recently did a whole concert with Elvis- and Barbra Streisand songs. So if you want to hear more Elvis interpretations from her you can. :)

Great job. And I'm an Elvis fan.

It's great to see a Swedish (!) singer really getting and caring about this song (representative and empathetic to all three sides of the most tragic part of American history) and it was breathtaking with the drummers in the American Civil War uniforms. She was able to connect to the song.

Elvis' version is still the most epic and grandest (you just can't beat the epic trumpets blaring power shot and the proud American Eagle jumpsuit), but this does it justice!

She went for the Elvis remake with the tune and everthing, and she's the first one that I have seen that could pull it off. Good job

This is simply breathtaking stuff! Elvis would have given her a standing ovation, and shouted; - That gal can SING!!!

[camposi]

Elvis iss death - but this singer!  I love her!

[jimgordon77]

Beautiful !! I love and honor Elvis, and your tribute to him was beautiful!!

jag tror att en del av Elvis finns i Carola..så måste det vara..jag har inte hört nån annan än Elvis sjunga med en sån inlevelse!..Halelulia!

[PBRMafia]

Its ok but Elvis was much much better. Elvis had a passion for his music that nobody else in this world has ever had. There is not a female on this earth that can top how elvis sung a song,and most likely not a male either. In my opinion I hate female versions of elvis songs,they just dont sound right.

absolut d bästa hon nånsin gjort!!!
