This song was in the 1968 Christmas Special- which the producers envisioned as Bing-Crosby-like Christmas sweaters and eggnog. Elvis made it black leather, "Lookin' for trouble', and this powerful end song reaction to the current world violence & death of RFK. Check out the entire soundtrack. You have never heard anything like it!!
ELVIS SUNG THIS SONG AS A TRIBUTE TO THE DEATH OF J.F. KENNEDY BEING MURDERED AND ANOTHER FAMOUS BLACK GUY. YES A TRIBUTE………………… ELVIS WAS BROUGHT UP IN THE BLACK COMMUNITY IN TUPELO, MISSISSIPPI
I like you! You would make a good comedienne!! AND YES IF I CAN DREAM IS A STUNNING RECORD. ELVIS SUNG THIS AS A TRIBUTE TO J.F. KENNEDY WHEN HE WAS MURDERED AND THE OTHER BLACK GUY.
68 year old grandma here😊 i love Elvis! Sad day when he died😢 my Grandma met Elvis cause his car broke down in her town in Nebraska and my uncle fixed it for him😊 she told me he's a sweet young man❤
Don't forget the 1970 incident at the Houston Astrodome. He sold out the place and THEN they told him that he could perform but the Sweet Inspirations (his all African-American female backup group) could not. They found out real quick that Elvis loved people way more than he loved money because he told them all to go to hell. Well they backed off and Elvis AND the Sweet Inspirations walked onto that stage TOGETHER !
He was told not to perform that song, the station tried to force him to do a Christmas song, guess him wanting to make a statement meant more to him than his career so he surprised and shocked the station by doing that song whether they liked it or not. Seems he felt this message needed to be delivered instead of singing "here comes Santa Claus.! You should investigate and or fact check that. Thanks for the good work you and your son does as I enjoy you both
He was born and bred in a poor, predominantly black community at the height of the great depression. He was surrounded by gospel music and hung out with Little Richard and BB King…… Those influences clearly lasted and this song is known as the first real protest song.

You cut and talk too much. I love your reaction! But……
Identity something! It's my favorite message and my favorite artist!
You talk too much.
People doubt it but Elvis truly was an American Treasure. He had the kind of heart and grace the world needed and still needs today.
He was born and bred in a poor, predominantly black community at the height of the great depression. He was surrounded by gospel music and hung out with Little Richard and BB King…… Those influences clearly lasted and this song is known as the first real protest song.
Your pausing way too much man…like….😂…listen to the song in its entirety
