Reply With Quote"My boy, my boy" is Elvis and the boys impersonating comic W.C.Fields. "My boy" was one of his catchphrases.
As for TTWII, if you turn the audio right up, you can hear one of the guys say "s--t".
Alot in the 68 comeback and even in the TTWII videos, Elvis always says..."boy my boy". I wonder what he's meaning or what is he referring too. Also on TTWII he tells his mafia..."You can't say that...they'll put a big X-rated right over your big fat mouth"..The audio isn't clear enough..does anyone know what the conversation consisted of that jokingly Elvis throws the water at the guys in the chairs while he's rehearsing for the concert?

About TTWII... I always thought that one of the guys said "big a**", as Elvis said after a few seconds: "You can't say big a** on this family" or something similar.
About TTWII:
I think that someone said big a** during the rehearsal and Elvis said : You can't say big a** on this film, they will cut it out...or somthing...

Exactly. He says, "You can't say "big a** on this film...they'll cut it out...they'll put an "X" rating right across your big mouth, man!"
I heard Elvis picked up "My boy, my boy" from Col. Parker using it alot and when Elvis started using it so did the guys.
My Boy, My Boy was in reference to W.C. Fields which he said it all the time so Elvis started it. That tells that is where it comes from in several books.
the ttwii he says 'you can't say big a** on this show' like he is saying you can't say it though he did...funny man
And Alan Fortas came up with 'my boy my boy' someone famous started it off but then Alan started to say it then Elvis did..

Now thats a new one I've never heard the W.C. Fields connection to that phrase.
Please, watch several of his films and you will see him saying "My Boy, My Boy". That phrase is one of the many famous phrases by the late W.C. Fields. The original marker that was on the vault that he is buried in had the phrase on it.
I have a few of WCs movies "Its A Gift" "The Dentist" "Fatal Glass of Beer" and do not recall the phrase but I do not have all of his movies. What I meant was I do not recall reading about the origin of "My boy my boy" used by Elvis as having a connection to WC. I have about 50 or so books on Elvis and can't recall a reference in any to WC (but there are hundreds of books and articles on Elvis and millions of web sites for him so I have not read it all ha ha)
