My mother was born the same yr as Elvis...I grew up with ELVIS!. She never missed going to his movies the min. they hit the SCREEN. HE DIED [year 1977] when my 2nd son was 4 mos. old. I cried for a week!!! His voice is SO super amazing, SMOOTH AS SILK...best male singer ever born!!!!❤❤❤ He's in HEAVEN singing with the ANGELS OF GOD ALMIGHTY!!!

I cry whenever I hear this song. Great reaction. I don't know why people are giving you crap, and saying the song isn't about Elvis. Obviously it's not ABOUT him, but he did sing songs that he connected with, songs that had meaning for him. His music and his vocals are so beautiful and powerful that you can't help but connect with the lyrics. If a song can bring you to tears, then you too, have a connection to it. Lyrics are so important to me. I always listen to lyrics in a song, and Elvis brings me to tears more than any other musician ever has, and that's a good thing. It means you connect with the song and in Elvis' case, the artist too. He has this way of grabbing your attention. If he can make you feel something through a damn computer screen, I can only imagine the depth of emotion people felt watching him live. I don't know if my heart could take it. I love this man with every fibre of my being. Thank you for the Elvis reactions. It's much appreciated.

Elvis, when he sang, could rock the house with a rock and roll classic, but when he sings a ballad like Danny Boy, he touches you in your heart. The King could sing anything. He was blessed with a beautiful voice. Long Live The King❤❤❤

Elvis connects with our souls

Danny boy he did earlier But did it again... old shep is a tear up one❤

Just a little tidbit here! Elvis daughter was telling a story about a special room elvis went to in Graceland surrounded by different religous bibles of different religions. He said he found piece in that room away from all the hatred and negativity. Lisa marie said after Elvis died she would sit in that eoom and would feel his presance. You can look that up. Gave me chills

Elvis touches your heart, you are like the rest of us fans. I hate it when people say all he did was wiggle. Man, he had a three octave range. He is so passionate, you have a good heart, thank you for this wonderful reaction. Remember he lost his twin brother at birth. He always felt like guilty because he lived. We real Elvis fans know that God gave him a social gift that transcends time, as actor Austin Butler said, "Elvis is the wallpaper of our lives. Be Blessed.

Elvis was very sensitive, so, when he sings so emotionally, he is feeling everything in the song. It was that quality that drew people to him and won him so many fans.

He makes you believe everything he sings ❤

You are so right...Elvis brings us all together......

One of my favorite Elvis songs... He sang this song in concert in 1976 in Tucson Arizona. It's a classic Irish song. His rendition is beyond beautiful 😍😍

Elvis is the greatest of all time! No one sings this song better than him. The world misses you Elvis!❤❤❤❤❤

Wonderful reaction

Danny Boy was one Elvis's favorite songs. It was sung at his funeral.

I can not ever hear Elvis sing this sad song without crying and im NOT a cryer ! It tears me up ever time and i picture me kneeling at his grave. Tears me up and only Heavenly Father knows how my heart hurts . I miss Elvis so much!

It's just like me ,i never got to see this beautiful man inside ,and out ,i feel iv'e been cheated not seeing him live

Elvis asked his dad what song he would like him to record.vernon told him ,oh danny boy.

You have to cry when you hear Danny Boy, it's the law! Lol. People all over the world have been crying at this song for centuries. When Elvis sings it's even more powerful. Oh, that high note at the end ** sobs** ❤ great reaction.

Elvis and a piano is always a guarantee for chills or tears. - You'll Never Walk alone - Suppose Thank you for your true words!💚☀️

I read that Vernon loved this song and Elvis recorded it for him. I think it's emotional because Elvis's voice causes an emotional response from his listeners and also Elvis died so young and Vernon out lived him. Great reaction ❤

You’re exactly right, Elvis had the rare ability to bring the listener into the song with him. You connect with Elvis. We connect with Elvis. Elvis feels the song and he passes his feelings to the listener. A rare ability. But that’s why Elvis is Elvis. I love love love your Elvis reactions. Thank you so much.

Oh no! You're not crazy and you're not alone!! 😊

You're not crazy‼️...If that's the case.....there are more nuts than sane in the world.....(I wonder 😂) Elvis took a song and dipped it in his soul and gave it to us Thanxx for another great reaction 💎🎼👌

Elvis' version of Danny Boy is the best, I have heard this song by him several times and he still makes me cry.

I love Elvis' rendition of Danny Boy! I'm anxious to see your reaction!

So many of his songs hit straight to the heart and squeeze tight 💙❤💯🙏

This song is heartbreaking! But also so Beautiful! You feel it in your heart and soul! Thank you for your wonderful reactions to Elvis!

Totally agree with all you're saying, great reaction. I also feel the Elvis connection, he was really good at making others feel the way he felt.

Yes, Elvis chose songs he liked because he connected to them. He says that often in interviews.

Love love this song. Love also your reaction. More please 💕💕💕💕

The tears flow hearing this beautiful song from our Elvis....😢yes it's easy to feel hurt when he sings certain songs ....I hear his voice breaking with emotion and I can feel it in my heart💔 I absolutely agree with you about connecting with the music...he sings as though he has experienced the feeling . Thank you for sharing his music with us...so sorry about people being rude or argumentative....Elvis made music so everyone can enjoy it...not arguing about whether or not he was experiencing certain emotions or situations during the recording of a song.

Music is the universal language that connects us.

Your are really an intelligent person with a great heart and soul. I wish you all the luck in your life. People with a satanic mindset will always come down on Elvis. They don't hear and feel what we do since they have no heart, empathy and feelings. Keep up the great work.

That song was his fathers favorite song . He was recording a album and he asked his dad what song he would like him to record. Elvis love his father and they shared a love for gospel.This song was played at Elvis funeral.Thank you for your wonderful comments.

Sometimes in a lifetime...His melancholic voice and serene feeling of the human soul makes you cry from deep down inside.

Can't listen to this song without tears streaming down my face. His voice and his passion is so powerful!!! Just absolutely MAGICAL! Would love for you to react to I'll Hold You In My Heart (til I can hold you in my arms) Love your Elvis reactions!!! You Rock and don't take the negative personal. Not worth it. ❤❤❤❤

I am aiways amazed with his voice

After 1968 he vowed to never sing another song he didn’t believe in, didn’t feel… something about Elvis made you, as a listener feel what he was singing about, “made you believe he meant it”, as BB King said… I believe there was a part of every song he sang after 68 that meant something personal in some way, or in many ways to Elvis - that’s why we are as listeners feel that connection… he had a truly incredible ability to convey feeling & emotion through a song…

Music is life! You keep feeling it and connecting with it, Elvis did and that's why we love him! Try Silent Night from Elvis!

I agree that Elvis brought us together with his music. He touched so many of us with his sincerity and his ability to make us feel what he was singing about, whether it was about his experience or not. His empathy and humanity for people from all walks of life came through in his voice. What a beautiful human being he was. Thanks for your wonderful reaction and your appreciation and understanding of his music.❤❤❤

Elvis did connect with this song because it was his father, Vernon’s favourite song. He originally sang it for his dad. The album you used, was recorded at Graceland because Elvis refused to go to Nashville after a lot of touring. So RCA filled a truck with equipment and set up a studio in Graceland. I think Elvis sings so emotionally on this album because he’s in his happy place and haven, Graceland. 🙏👌💕🕺

"No More" "It's Now or Never" "I Can't Stop Loving You".."Just Pretend" "It's Midnight" "I'll Never Know"..Ya still have about another 750 songs to go..He could sing anything..Keep enjoying..and thanks..Makes me happy to hear you loving him..And you're right!

Love, love. Love Elvis' rendition of Danny Boy! That voice! I agree i get emotional when he sings about death! His story is great but sad too because of all his struggles! 😢

Thanks for this heartfelt reaction. Absolutely beautiful rendition of a favorire old Irish song. --Marie

I feel the same as you sir! I get so sad. Elvis was one of a kind. He will live on through his songs. He was a gift from God.

Poignant song...almost predictive of his own impending demise. Absolutely heartbreaking in Elvis' beautiful rendition of this sad song. Never fails to bring on the tears. RIP, EP 🙏🏼❤⚡💯

Thanks for sharing God, bless you and your family have a blessed, and safe happy thanks giving.for you and your family 👪 ❤ The G.O.A.T. RIP Elvis, 🎉🕺🎸🎤⚡TCB ⚡🌹💐❤🙏

Hey bro, Elvis even stated he would never sing another song that he did not believe in referencing many of the songs in his movies. To your point, even though many songs were not about his life, he did connect with them, and believed in them. You are right! The songs may not have been about him, but he felt a deep conviction when he sang them and connected with them.❤️

Elvis always the best and his cover of Danny Boy is my favorite cover of this song. He did this for his Daddy as it was one of his favorites

THAT WAS SO BRILLIANT!! I REALLY LOVE YOUR ELVIS REACTIONS BRO!! AWESOME 10 FOLD

I, as an Elvis fan since I was 10 years-old, appreciate your comments especially after you heard Elvis sing IF I Can Dream. You have the ability and heart to pass that on to people you know.

What an amazing artist he could sing any type of music he was so versatile like no other !❤ rip the 👑

You can try to fight it but he pulls you in

I’m watching your reaction to this and I’m sitting on the couch, crying my eyes out. You’re not alone we all have that connection to him and as you listen to the lyrics, I couldn’t help thinking of standing in front of Elvis‘s grave at Graceland and how I felt especially the last part of the lyrics where it says that Danny is standing on his grave, kneeling telling him that he loves him. I just busted into tears and I’m crying right now. I’ve been going through a lot in my life and maybe I needed to hear this song. Thanks for sharing it. ❤️❤️

Just beautiful. I often times feel like he was singing songs about his life even though he may not have been.

I love this song.Elvis was the greatist singer and he could stir up somuch emotion.

Thank you. Ive never even heard this one. Great reaction. I get emotional also. I cant imagine what that man went through in the last 4-6 years of his life. Then Priscilla wants to say the things and all the negative things said about him since he died is so wrong. He isn't here to defend himself.

So beautiful. An Irish folk song written by an English lawyer. It seems to have been about an older person singing to someone younger and if he is gone when the younger one comes home, it’s okay. A love song that Elvis sings with such heartfelt tones. Beautiful ❤

I think the hurt you feel is the pain of knowing he went through hard times and the sadness of knowing he died so very young...

quite a few of his songs make me feel that sadness you speak of, knowing that we lost him too soon, the loss is still felt all these years later.. its the lose of a life so gifted, so generous and humble, so talented.. it would have been so wonderful to see what more he would have given us. RIP Elvis

Supremely beautiful.On 16th August 1977 we lost a very special irreplaceable human being.Thank you Thank you very much.👑👑👑

You're very welcome

Your reaction is on point!!! You got the essence of Elvis' music.Thanks

So bittersweet. This is a song that is played at most of Irish funerals. I told my family (I’m Irish). I want this. Of course he’s thinking about his own mortality as we do when we listen to it. Example of Separate Ways was it a coincidence that he was splitting from his wife & there’s another song he did after his divorce that had to be for his own feelings and regrets. There are many songs in his arsenal that fit into his life with perfect timing. Coincidence? I think not. He has a whole album that a lot of the songs were very maudlin and his friends at that time said he was depressed. He bled his emotions ahh he sang. I think that’s the greatest joy he left behind. To continue connecting with others through his music. It’s 47 yrs after his death ad he’s still selling billions of records. He had soul when he sang. People’s connect with a song because it’s relatable to them. Why would he be any different? A music specialist on U tube very popular talked about Elvis’s singing & he demonstrated that he could sing cry notes which is like he’s singing and crying at the same time which will instantly get to you. It’s very rare and so is Elvis. He’s like a rare gem. Once you discover him, you’re hooked. I’ve seen it countless times with family, friends and even reactors on U tube. He sure had that God given gift. 47 yrs after his death thousands of people will come from around the world to gather at a candlelight vigil for him. How special is that. He was a wonderful man and know our hearts break for Lisa Marie too. I think you are right but I guess everyone is different and perhaps not as sensitive. Most people I know feel as I do. Thank you for keeping Elvis and his music alive. 😊❤❤❤❤🎸🕺🏻🎸🕺🏻🎤🌹🌹🌹🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️

Finally you are back!!!

You're totally right about listening to Elvis's voice without much accompaniment ‐ it's SO beautiful it hurts, and I'm in tears here ❤ This is a late recording (1976) and the song was one of his father's favourites.

Great reaction. A song that has Elvis alone, playing a piano is called, It's Still Here. One of my favorites.

You nailed it CVTECK1 !

You have a beautiful heart I feel the same

I have this album has some great songs on it. Danny Boy is a song Elvis puts all his emotions into omg

This was supposedly Elvis' mom favorite song!

You said it right, A song once available can be anyone's to interpret. We always do that with poems and plays and other arts. We know that Elvis was a big lyrics man - he was drawn to certain lyrics, and it was often, if not always, because of his great empathy and desire to put across meaning. Secondly, anyone can sing certain words, but not everyone's use of them can affect you deeply in the same way. The emphases Elvis places on certain words, such as he does in 'Danny Boy," elevate the very words that you mention. Finally, carry on with the AI (or not if you prefer). When it comes to Elvis, we hear too much of this don't do this/don't do that.

You are one of many who feel close to Elvis when he sings this, and other songs. We know it's not his story but there is a similarity to his life. When he performs the American Trilogy and he says "Hush little baby, don't you cry, you know your daddy's bound to die", I always feel a slight gasp. I think of him and his daughter. If another singer who has passed performed this, I don't think I would feel the same way. Loved your reaction.

CV..You are so correct in what your saying.. Music does make us connect and when Elvis sings any song he connects to it because he always put his soul n heart into every song he sang..How many times do we hear a song n it makes us stop in our tracks because it brought our mind back to what we were doing or feeling at the time that song came out....I think there are ppl that listen to music but don't actually pay attention to the words....Great video n thanks..BTW.. Elvis Loved the name Danny..He has a cousin with that name, Elvis was the one that picked it out for him..Also if Elvis was to ever have a son, His name would have been Danny..

Beautiful reaction. You really get him.

You are not crazy at all! This is what made Elvis, such a beloved, musician and singer! We felt every word that he sang, because he was so real and made you feel like you were the only person he was singing to! 😢There’s never been another one like him, and never will be!❤

Hey don't forget "Christmas at Graceland" on NBC November 29, at 10:00 pm, a tribute from Elvis' granddaughter Riley Keough, and some other fans. They will have a big song fest but also will show some rare footage of Elvis at Christmas. thanks

Haters are everywhere, man. You are being the authentic you and giving authentic reactions. I appreciate that. It doesn't matter if Elvis is singing songs ABOUT himself. As you and others have stated, it's about the ability to CONNECT with the song. It's about empathy for our fellow human beings. Elvis had that. You have that. He had a lot of pain and suffering in his life. He knew people who had a lot of pain and suffering in their lives. He was able to connect with them and empathize with that emotion bound up in the pain. THAT'S where so many of his mournful songs came from. It might not have been the exact words of the song, but the pain and depth of emotion was there. He understood that. You're feeling that through him and his ability to convey those emotions. He did the same with his fun, joyful songs. You're doing first time reactions to songs, not doing a documentary. You are feeling out what's going on in real time. I love that about your reactions. You keep doing what you're doing. We're here for you.

I agree with you about Elvis feeling the music He does create the connection.

Haven't heard this before. Wow! so beautiful. You are so right. Elvis always chose songs that he could feel and that he thought other people would connect with.

Oh, he sang the second verse. My grandfather always complained that the second verse was prettier than the first one,and, nobody ever sang it. Danny is the view point character's youngest son. He's lost three sons in war,and now Danny is being called by the pipes to go to war for his country. He is aware that, at his age, he may not live to see his boy return.

Wow wow. Elvis could make any song his own

Jane H commenting …. I feel the same way. I get emotional thinking of the struggles he had in the last four years of his life, & particularly the final year. And when I see him seeing with his daughter Lisa Marie (She recorded in the same studio as her beloved father, but of course many years later. I actually have never heard him singing Danny Boy, but certainly beautiful. Great reaction from you.

I think I speak for many of the long time fans watching and commenting . . .those of us who "know" the songs and concert performances (at least I do) love anticipating your reaction when we know the tone or Elvis hitting "that note" is coming.

He did that in one breath
