I feel an obligation to take care of that this wonderful human being and his loveable songs will NEVER BE FORGOTTEN. I love you KING - I can truly say that - an NO: I am not gay. It is just a feeling deep inside and his music has been of great comfort for me from the age of ten on - since 1982.

Mr. David you are so right on because it pisses me off too, the presumption of some people ... I'm pretty intuitive and when I first saw Elvis Presley on the screen and heard that voice , saw that smile and felt his demeanor coming through is silver screen, I immediately new in my heart of hearts that was somebody very special that God has blessed with much more than his looks and his talents but a man with a heart of gold there was connected to the divine and somehow would be so conscious of it that he would channel that connection through his talent in Elvis would know it, appreciated and further it right Along ... and we the recipient of that love tone in his songs would appreciate it and send our love and appreciation right back to him and I feel that Elvis had this god-given Talent the gave Kindred Spirits this connection we feel and acknowledge they we all came from the Divine source ... it just feels right to hear that very distinguishable a god-given voice! Elvis, I believe had a sense of responsibility from his spiritual consciousness, that Within if you will, a sense of Duty to his fellow man to use his talent in a way that will uplift an open heart!

you have to remember this is his public persona, a well crafted and managed individual avoiding saying anything offensive. Sure some famous people can't even do that properly and get all shitty with the media. Elvis simply avoided them as this was the best option and kept the magic alive, but behind closed doors as with anyone, that's a whole different story. He certainly didn't mix with many of his peers, and surrounded himself with non famous people, many were old friends, this way he'd always be the big fish in a small pond.

Elvis NEVER set out on purpose to hurt anyone or anyones feelings , and the times he did he was under the influence of those pesky pills, he wasn't himself. such a candid interview i love his honesty you really get to know the man behind the Entertainer. always out to do his best in life and for others, as an actor he was never puffed up as some actors are . i always knew elvis wanted to marry against wat many said that he didnt want to , he said he was in no hurry had to make sure he was sure . parker was rushing him .

They are the ones that you know loves you before the fame. The rest you really don’t know for certain. Most men would be embarrassed to have their grandma live with you and it’s a testament to his love and respect. He gave his cousin a job because he was small. He stayed with him until he died and then even afterwards.

That's the most insightful interview I've ever heard of Elvis. He's conversational here and it's rare to hear his natural way of thinking. 1962 so he would be 27yo. He sounds quite mature for his age, certainly very philosophical and a deep thinker. Intelligent also - something he was not given credit for. I wonder why he shut down publicly when he had so much to say. Extraordinary that he talked about menopausal women and for the people that say he only liked young girls, here we hear him talk about growing old with someone. His focus on loneliness is also evident - something that would plague him no matter who he was with.

​@@naturestone3148Elvis Presley never wanted to marry Priscilla but he was forced by papa Beaulieu en Parker. Elvis missed Lisa Marie but not Priscilla. It hurt his ego that she left him but he didn't want her back. Priscilla only went after Elvis Presley for fame and fortune. She didn't love Elvis but his luxurious lifestyle. In 1967 they bought the Hillcrest villa in California where Priscilla en Lisa Marie stayed when Elvis was filming. However weeks after the birth of Lisa Marie Priscilla started an extramarital affair with her danceteacher, whom she replaced for her personal trainer in 1970. Elvis, in his turn, started two extramarital affairs from 1969 onwards. In 1970 they bought two more houses in California : the Monovale house and a Spanish-style house. Elvis probably wouldn't have bought the two houses had he known that Priscilla cheated on him. At the divorce Priscilla claimed half of the value of the three houses: $500.000,-. Priscilla is a golddigger who extorted Elvis financially up till his death and thereafter robbed her daughter for millions and extorted her granddaughters. She was, after Parker, the most damaging person in Elvis' life.

So glad that through these rare interviews one get's to hear what a wonderful, humble, genuine and extremely intelligent person he is! I'm pretty sure he's also saying here that he can't be brainwashed/influenced by anyone or anything, and the way he talks about his views on things and people, he's so ahead of his time! Other things I've also picked up from this interview are that he's already showing disillusionment with his movie career, but he's still got hope here which is sad considering what we now know. Also evident is the enormous devastation to him over the loss of his mother, in spite of him having to and trying to remain positive, bless him. He clearly is seeking (and found) comfort to a degree, but imo the loss of one's beloved mother is unrecoverable from 😔 . #LoveElvisTheHumanBeing

Incredible interview. He's only 27 here.

So intelligent. No college. Just smart beyond his years. 26 at this time. Think of that.

I have come to learn especially from Larry Geller who brought him books on philosophy and spiritual books and he was interested in the martial arts football medical science he read the Bible and various religious teachings the man with aspiring to be the best she could understand where he stood in this life and relation to his place in God's eyes. He was appreciative and made it a point to be very conscious of his fellow human being and appreciated his lessons you could see and hear it in his voice even without me seeing this interview in 1962

This man is so humble and honest I love to hear I'm talk goes to show he was one of the greatest entertainers in the world but never showed it what a great man

Elvis is his own person judge a person just by meeting them if they are honest. He was good at that very humble person very wise for his age an d he had respect for people no matter what job they did his mum and dad brought him up very well he rose to fame very quickly it was a lot to handle at his age he was a very intelligent man always wanting to learn about lots of things in life and searching for something but he definitely found his calling with his singing he loved to sing it’s such a shame that the world lost him so young

Extraordinary man! Talented, wise, kind, respectful, caring, blessed, loving...and so much more! He loved his mother, father and family! He spoke it in this interview! God blessed him! What a Voice! "You only pass through this life once Jack!" So true, so very true! Thank God he didn't become a Dr. or football player. We may have never known him as the talented singer he was, is, forever! What a horrible thought!!! He sings like an angel, flawless! We are blessed to have his music! I love all his music...but the Gospel is my favorite! Thankful!!! He has truly touched lives! When life gets tough, as it often does, I listen to his Gospel songs! I get peace and strength! I wish he knew today how his life & singing impacted others throughout the years...he was so Blessed by God, and a blessing to us from God! 😇❤️ This was a great interview by Elvis!😊

If he had become a Doctor or anything other than the Icon that he was, he might of had a happier and longer life instead of a lonely and far too short one. The world would have missed the beauty and magic of an extraordinary man, but if that meant that Elvis was still alive and happy somewhere in it, that's a sacrifice we should all be willing to make. Of course the road not taken will always be just that and we can never know what would have happened 'if only' 😔

WOW, wish I could have met him then. Wise beyond his years. Always aware of others...

Elvis Presley's life is a life I love to watch but I could never live it clear away the smoke and I believe that it was a sad life toward his final years.... Jeff Cline

I believe that too. Especially the last two years of his life...I think he gave up. I also believe that he was his own worst critic and had a lack of confidence to the fact that he was not able to pull himself up just by his own strength. He was weak at the end and i think he was seeing his own death coming...after being betrayed by people he took care of for many years. So called "friends"!!! The book they published about him in i think 1976...?

Loved this interview. It was very long in contrast to future interviews. (Probably because of the "Colonel".) Most of the time I cannot hear the questions Elvis is asked, but he comes out pretty clear. Very smart, humble man...I will always love him.

Elvis the most beautiful humle human being man that was put on this earth their will never another man like Elvis Presley i love you and miss you Elvis 💞👑💞👑💞❤

"I've had a pretty good lesson in human nature." I wish the sound had been better.

God Bless You Elvis for ever and ever and ever

WoW Elvis was a smart man he really was, RIP ELVIS 🙏

Elvis was the first world superstar to have to navigate on his own with no refrance, the fame, fortune and constant mad attention from the public, fans and media on a mega level. But he did it with such, grace, love and sincerity. He was a young man who could have a huge ego and cearless attitude to everyone, but he was very wise and intelligent with a deep unstanding of his role in life and who put him on top. He had such a respectful, careing, polite and down to earth attitude, with time and love for EVERYONE, AND he was greatfull to all and HAPPY being Elvis. So many celebrity's could learn this is how you should conduct yourself in public, he paved the way...Such a great shame it all became too much and too lonley for him in the end. Never be another like him.

And this is why he is the king!

Far cry from 96% of today's "artists".

Thanks for the information. The man was incredible and clearly too good for this world. I am going to order the book. I think Elvis has been treated very unfairly by a lot of people around him. Knowing these numbers I am even more determined to defend Elvis Presley and Lisa Marie Presley.

Элвис искренний , воспитанный , очень самокритичный человек ! Голос грустный , тоскует по своей маме .Замечательный джентельмен !

In this interview Elvis said he didn't have the money to go to college to be a doctor or he would of. I'm glad he didn't have the money.

College would have ruined him, I think. Some people who tried higher education only do one or two years and give it up due to lack of interest as well as money. Sometimes you're better off out in the world working. If you can read you can learn by yourself anyway.

College isn’t for everyone, he wanted to play football. But God had another plan for him - to bring happiness to the world, and then He came and got him.

I could listen to this interview all day!! ❤️

One of the best interviews I’ve heard of Elvis. Still searching but love the replies he gave to questions from food to dating.

Elvis was certainly no raconteur. He was basically a shy country boy and deep down remained the same. He stutters a lot and is obviously nervous about saying anything controversial. Overall he comes across as sincere.

i love hearing him what a beautyful kind lovley man♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Elvis was a verry shy person and was always respectfal to people he was brought up that way buy his mom and dad ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

This is one of the longest best interview I have ever heard with Elvis Presley. 💯💯💯 Fantastic. !!!!! 😁😁😁😃😃😀😀🤩🤩🤩

Honestly here he sounds almost depressed. Either that or super super chill. I have heard him a lot more upbeat for sure

Love you Elvis 💞 I love hearing him talk and of course sing too what a wonderful man he was

At 27 he has an empathy and understanding of women….few men ever get this appreciation and are able to meet people where they are at….

Awesome interview. Thanks very much!

Just an inspiration to for me ! I just want to hug the world

Elvis Presley loved God endless much, he was humbled and kind also because of his faith. That is the main reason why i love Elvis. Rest in Peace Beloved beautiful human been. Your pure Soul will allways live, as long the Mankind exists. I am keeping You in my prayers dear brother in Christ. God Love and Wisdom, is healing and unites the Mankind. Lovely Godly Embraces from Blieskastel, Germany, to the Family and Friends of Elvis, also to America.
