Thread: Your favourite 68 comeback segment

    Your favourite 68 comeback segment

    We all know how awsome ELVIS is in this special but if you had to choose your favourite segment which would it be?

    It is hard to choose just one

    Mine are the "If I Can Dream" sequence and the Sit Down Shows. Elvis looks amazing in the white suit and it is a great song Elvis really believed the words in that song.
    The sit down segments were absolutely incredible the way Elvis sends the audience into a frenzy when he sings songs like Lawdy Miss Clawdy and One Night. He looks totally hot an incredible performance I love the ending when he sings the beautiful memories.

    The program seems fine, but I have my favorite sections.
    To me some songs of STAND UP SHOWS, complete GOSPEL sequence and blues versions of SIT DOWN SHOWS.

    HANDS DOWN!!!!!!!!! THE SIT-DOWN SHOWS!!!!!!!!! The first one to be exact, but the Sit-Down Shows.......Elvis in black leather, looking so vulnerable and sexy and singing as if his life depended on it.......having to work at it........WOW!!!!!!!!! I could watch those shows every day and never get tired.............

    I would have to say the sit down shows.

    The stand-up segment is my favorite part of the whole comeback. He's as rock 'n' roll as it gets. The Blue Suede shoes number is beyond hard rock. If I Can Dream is the ultimate performance of his career IMO.

    I liked the Trouble/Guitar Man opening, the gospel and the "If I Can Dream" sequence.

    I actually have 2 favorite segments...the first are the stand-up performances!! While I love the sit-down performances, I just enjoy watching Elvis so much more when he is up and moving around...absolutely dynamic!!!

    My second favorite segment is the "Road" segment (Nothingville, Big Boss Man, Guitar Man, Let Yourself Go, etc.). I just think that is an outstanding tribute to Elvis' career from his humble beginnings (Nothingville) to the one and only "swingin' little Guitar Man"!! A very well crafted segment in my opinion!!!

    TCB!

    The sit down shows are legendary and the real meat of the special.

    Even my dad, a casual observer of Elvis, remarked, when I bought the 2004 DVD set, that "the parts where he's sat down are best".

    I have a feeling that almost anybody who's ever seen one of those sitdown shows will tell you that they're mesmeric or give words to that effect.

    Definitely the sit-down performances......some of the best music of his career. I`ve seen several non-fans who were highly impressed with this side of Elvis over the years.It is about as close to "Elvis Unplugged" as we could hope for.
