Elvis, Life with 'The King'

When Elvis died in his house in Memphis, his step brother and later bodyguard David Stanley was there. Years ago we did a documentary with David for Dutch television. This is a short version of it, showing his life with Elvis. Also he shares what happened with his own live after Elvis passed away. "Although it was an exciting time with Elvis, somehow I stayed empty". "Only one King could fill that void".

    Im originally from Memphis. My Dad went to Humes with him. We lived in Whitehaven and drove past Graceland all of the time. I'll never forget the night Elvis died. They broke into programming and announced that he had passed away. My dad almost fell off of the couch. Years later, my wife, kids and I got the privilege to take a tour of Graceland. Walking in the front door was so surreal. All of us realized that we were standing in the home of one of the larger than life legends to ever live. I loved Elvis's music and his humanity. I watched a concert performance of his once and during the show one of the fans raised a sign reading " You are The King " Elvis saw the sign and very respectfully stated " There is only one King and He is JESUS Christ " That sealed my respect of the man right then. To confess Christ on stage in person to thousands of people and, to the millions of people watching by satellite wow !!!!! I know in my heart Elvis is with THE KING OF KINGS.

    From what everyone else said it was someone else who went up to check on Elvis. Also Elvis kept and read his Bible daily. Charlie Hodge said no matter where Elvis was he had a Bible with him and he read it more than any other book. Elvis was a true gift from God and I wish everyone would let him R.i.p. !

    I’ve never in my life time heard of a artist, as great as Elvis, suffer so much,to make people happy,Elvis put everybody else first,and I’ve never known of such greatness and kindness and such never ending love for others in this world as genuine pure love as Elvis had and gave to all, Elvis is a true example of Gods Glory,and no one can take that from him,no one,and no one could endure the suffering he went threw to take care of everybody,and make everybody happy,my god people can’t even make each other happy or look after each other for more than a day,and here we have a example of pure love and how great thou art,when God created Elvis,and Elvis did God proud of what it is to love and love millions and help with out conditions, Elvis did it his way,and he did it perfectly,I love Elvis with all my Heart,and I Love God for putting him here so he could make us happy,and that is something to be proud of and something never ever to forget,and if anything drove Elvis of the edge,was that book,released over his death, seriously it’s disgusting releasing a book about there and his privacy, so they got fired,thinking what are we going to now,I know let get a book publish,that’s got to bring some money in,stabbed in the back from your own so called family,as they keep saying,the sheer betrayal,how can you write and publish a book,so personal about someone who fed you clothed you shared everything with you,it’s the biggest insult that can ever happen to someone,at least Elvis knew what loyalty was to his staff,if the shoe was on the other foot,NOWAY would Elvis have publish a book on someone else,and there private life,he was his own worst critic,a perfectionist,a sheer prison within oneself,and I think he knew deep down,what kind of people he was surrounded around,so he kept them close,but still they shit on him,and he did not deserve that,as for the addiction,god knows what they gave him,to change his,brain patterns,even he didn’t know himself,the outcome,I’m shocked Elvis carried on as long as he did,he cared about his fans,and I think,that was what kept him going,they made him feel of some worth,can’t believe the most beautiful man had a hard time even truly loving himself deep down,I’m so glad,as a child his mom took him to God,and the meaning of having belief,and prayer,I think that’s the only real peace he had found,that couldn’t be distorted,abused,or taken from him,may Elvis R.I.P,always remembered for how perfect,and truly loved you are,just as you are,missed loved and never forgotten xxx

    Very well said ma'am!I don't think anyone could have said it better if our Lord and savior were to try and say it himself!!! The bible has always said that Jesus was coming back, well has anyone ever heard the song by Collin Ray, "What if Jesus came back like that?" If you haven't heard of it, look it up on KZread and give it a listen and then think about Elvis and all of the things that he did for us while he was here in his short life too like Jesus... after all, Elvis Presley did in every way he could, tried to get people to listen to the lord's voice and his words in his way of preaching to us and that was through the words of his music brought from his heart and soul!!! Take a listen and get to know a ETA Elvis Presley tribute artist by the name of Cody Slaughter. Look him up on Google, Facebook, KZread, and research him... he is the youngest ETA winner in history. He dearly loves Elvis and at every show he says at the end thank God for Elvis and we or I love you Elvis Presley, God bless you all and thank you very much for coming... it hurts him to talk about Elvis ' death even though he was not even born and never got to meet Elvis... Cody Ray Slaughter is as down to earth and humble and loving and caring as Elvis was... he clearly proclaims he's NEVER trying to be Elvis Presley, that there is only one Elvis Presley but he is paying tribute to the wonderful man who Elvis Presley is, was, and always will be!!! I think that everyone needs to stop talking negative about such an incredible human being who loved and lived life to the fullest as well as doing unto others as he would have them do unto him... and probably even better. That's why the estate was only worth 3 million at the time of his death because he believed in spending it because no one has ever seen a armored car following them to their graves!!!

    Sharlens Whitley hi thankyou for your reply,yes your are completely correct, there was a time!when in Jerusalem,when they would cast stones,towards, a prostitute, and Jesus said this, that those without sin,cast the first stone,then every single man dropped the stones,because we all have sin in us,it is said we should not,judge any man,only God can judge, and what ever sin a man does,that will be discussed betweeen oneself and GOD, when we depart from this world 🌎,Elvis under the condition of his life,did the best he could,in how he knew,I think people forget he was flesh and blood,like all of us,and his main mission for himself was to find a GOD, I think he found God as a child,to find that acceptance and peace within,what no man can give one another,only GOD can give you that, but as much fame and fortune, he had he knew he can’t take it with you,so he shared what he had,because he had not much as a kid,and he knew he could provide that to all,but as much as he had,there was a lot taken from him,alot of loss,thankGOD he kept the flame 🔥 of god lit within,that saved him,in the end,I think he enjoyed his life,but had a problem with dealing with loss, everything he really cared about everything that was really important to him,was a loss, im sure he wondered why him,as we all have a problem with loss, not loss of materialistic things,of people,don’t think people realise how fast he had to grow up,how much responsibility he had,and how much he suffered inside, to keep everyone happy,and how scared and sensitive he really was inside,of trying to live up to people’s expectations of him,but he took it on, the best way he could,and tried to never let it show,anyhow I adore the man, because truth be told,how many of us could really deal with all that and not slip of the road,I know I couldn’t, do as well as ELVIS did with all that on his shoulders,I really hope next time Elvis,really has a life just for himself,and the freedom,he can do what he wants,with out all of this on his shoulders,and that he can properly exercise the greatest gift given to mankind by GOD himself,FREE WILL, let’s just be thankful what he left behind in his music for us to still enjoy and connect to,when we think of ELVIS,I hope ELVIS is at peace now, with GOD and the angels,I’ll look up those songs you,kindly,told me about, and thankyou once again,it was a pleasure to read what you have written,as I agree,God bless you all,sending lots of love and light from Great Britain 🇬🇧 xxx

I truly believe that He was chosen and that God Blessed Him with his southern charisma and charm, His beautiful looks and gave Elvis a glorious voice that could sing anything. He had such a generous heart that noone else could compare to him. It is heartbreaking that He left us so soon. R.I.P. ELVIS. You will never be forgotten and there will never be anyone else like you.

    omg! This gives goosebumps! I love ELVIS SO MUCH . AFTER I BUMPED INTO HIM IN '73 AT THE INTERNATIONAL HOTEL, as I went to throw out some bottles of champagne to the dumpster in back of the Hotel. On my way back a door opened and I almost got hit by the doors. He said "excuse me" and so did I. When I looked up, it was ELVIS!! I FROZE, AND COULDN'T EVEN ASK HIM FOR A KISS OR AN AUTOGRAPH. HE THEN GOT INTO A BLUE MERCEDES BENZ STRETCH LIMO AND THE MEMPHIS MAFIA BEHIND HIM. I DID GET TO SEE HIM IN 1976: AT ANAHEIM STADIUM, WHERE ALL HELL BROKE LOSE THERE AS HE BEGAN TO SING. THE SECURITY COULDN'T DO A THING, ELVIS TOLD THEM TO LET US BE. HE SAID THE STAGE IS TIO HIGH , THEY CANT HARM ME. HE THEN WOUKD WINK AT USAND SMILE. HE DID THROW SOME SCARFS: BUT I DIDNT GO NEAR THAT. WOMAN WHERE FIGHTING OVER THEM. HE KNEW HE WAS SPEACIAL, HE WOULDOOK AT US AS HE SANG THE LOVE SONGS. ❤ I LOVE YOU ELVIS!! FOREVER!! YOU WILL LIVE IN OUR HEARTS. THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC YOU LEFT US TO REMEMBER YOU BY. 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲OUR PATRIOTIC KING OF ROCK N ROLL! 🙏🙏🙏💜💙💜💙💜💙💜💙💜

Not one person in Elvis group was more into Jesus’s then Elvis . Elvis was a true believer always read the Bible and when ever he could he sang gospel music in his concerts and movies . He was the most generous person I had ever heard of . I think He’s happy now doing what he always wanted to do . Thanks 🙏 Elvis 🕺 for all the wonderful, beautiful memories you left in your music .

    No one could tell Elvis no. His drugs are proscribed by doctors, to Elvis they were medications. People even dumped out capsules and filled them with sugar but he know how the drug worked. When he didn't get the feeling he expected he figured out what was happening and chewed out everyone. He told Linda Thompson they were his medications and he needed them. The only person who could have saved Elvis was Elvis.

    I respect anybody's walk with God, as I have my own walk with Him, but we must be careful that we don't JUDGE people. We can't say that a person has not made peace with God before they die. And quoting a bunch of Bible verses does not make a man/woman righteous or saved. If you have them in your mouth, and not in your Heart, then you are lost and just as the good book says about the blind leading the blind. Remember people....don't judge anyone.. just because you run to church every Sunday for church services, and Wednesday for Bible study, it doesn't make you "saved"... I can sit in a garage all day, but that doesn't make me a car....

Having watched a lot of videos about ELVIS and his "backstory" it has made me think so much more about the time that has passed, even since the live shows -50 + years. We think back to when he was in his teenage years. He had his own "style", long hair, different clothes etc and he was bullied for this. By the time he was 21/22 HE HAD MADE IT BIG and had RICHES BEYOND COMPREHENSION. He then reinvented himself for the films and apart from the first few he GOT FED UP WITH THEM. He then reinvented himself for the 68 COMEBACK NBC SPECIAL He then reinvented himself for the 70's By 1971-72 HE HAD DONE IT ALL, and he needed something different to do. Nobody could save ELVIS apart from ELVIS. He was worn out and had lots of other medical issues - that we know about Glaucoma and his colon was abnormal If he had lived he would have had to reinvent again. The late 70's musically was changing again - singer/songwriters and ELVIS did not write his own material. In an interview he gave to the Press at MSG in 72 parts of it were telling -about being able to get good material - or the lack of it.

    You sure seemed proud of yourself David Stanley. Fast talker ,uh!! I believe Elvis was greatfull and trusted and loved our God every day of his life. You were only a child when he first knew you and despite the fact he did not like it when his dad married your mom, he welcomed you in the family anyway so you should be more respectful towards Elvis and leave all the negativity out of it. Please let Elvis rest in peace.

    I have just started to research Elvis, watched some of his films. I am also born at the same time as him.He was born on 8th Jan and I 9 january. I am younger. His story is full of sadness. He gave to everyone, yet was the lonliest of men. He was used, abused. With so many needing him as their banker and to live. Many of us know what it is to be in a room full of people and feel alone. I grieve for the way he T died. A.perfect beautiful looking man. With a voice that was blessed. I am trying to find real books about him. If anyone knows of truthful book(s) let me know titles. He was blessed with parents who raised him well and it seems he never forgot how he was raised and respected others. His is a life partly filled with so much sadness The Elvis tour has just arrived in London Uk. Where i live.

    David Stanley, you said you were a Christian, then, you talk crap about Elvis and his Dr... They're gone, no longer to give their point of view on your comments, you don't talk bad about the Dead... I am willing to say that I am guilty of the same thing, but I'm trying everyday to become a better Christian and not do or say things that can hurt people or their families... Good luck with that, it's not easy, but I think that's why there's a verse in the Bible, it says that God's Grace and Mercy are new each and every morning, because we all mess mess up daily, I know I do, if it's not a thing I said or did, it's that I fell short of not doing a good deed or not helping someone... 🕊️💫🌠💙🎼😎⚡🇺🇸 Sheila C 🕊️❣️

    Elvis knew and loved and had the Lord Jesus Christ in his life as a young child, thanks to his wonderful mother. How can you question his belief at the time when by your admittance, you were not in Christ. Now you have become a Christian, YOU stand in judgement of this God Given talented, humble, caring creature of God. YOU are so wrong. If you would have went to your half brother at the time at asked Elvis about the Lord, he would have shared with you immediately and joyfully. How many of his wonderful spiritual all night signings did you attend? That was one of Elvis’s greatest testimonies to Our Lord. Elvis read the Bible daily and searched endlessly. We’re you too busy to even venture into any of Elvis’s religious beliefs. YOU, Ricky Stanley haven’t the right to judge Elvis about anything. Did you ever walk a mile in Elvis’s shoes. Elvis had so many pressures put upon him like taking care of his whole gang and entire family and everybody around him. And YOU question his walk with Jesus Christ. YOU, Ricky Stanley, are SO WRONG. Elvis Presley would HAVE NEVER JUDGED YOU or ANYONE ELSE.
