My Way | Elvis Presley 4K (Live Music Video) Remastered Tribute Edition | Elvis In Concert 1977

Remastered and Edited by Akshat Luthra. Elvis Presley delivers a powerful performance of “My Way“ Live from the album Elvis in Concert, recorded on June 21st, 1977 in Rapid City. “My Way“ is a song popularized in 1969 by Frank Sinatra set to the music of the French song “Comme d’habitude“ composed by Jacques Revaux with lyrics by Gilles Thibaut and Claude François[1][2] and first performed in 1967 by Claude François. Its English lyrics were written by Paul Anka and are unrelated to the original French song. Elvis’s studio version of the song, recorded in 1971, was included on the fourth disc of “Walk a Mile in My Shoes: The Essential ’70s Masters“. Presley began performing the song in concert during the mid-1970s, despite Anka’s suggestions that the song did not suit him. Nevertheless, on January 12 and 14, 1973, Presley sang the song during his satellite show Aloha from Hawaii Via Satellite, beamed live and on a deferred basis (for European audiences, who also saw it in prime time), to 43 countries via Intelsat. On October 3, 1977, several weeks after Presley’s death, his live recording of “My Way“ (recorded for the Elvis In Concert CBS-TV special on June 21, 1977) was released as a single. In the U.S., it reached number 22 on the Billboard Hot 100 pop singles chart in late 1977/early 1978 (higher than Frank Sinatra’s peak position), number 6 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart, and went gold for its successful sales of over a million copies. The following year the single reached number 2 on the Billboard Country singles chart but went all the way to number 1 on the rival Cash Box Country Singles Chart. In the UK, it reached number 9 on the UK Singles Chart. Lyrics - And now the end is here And so I face that final curtain My friend I’ll make it clear I’ll state my case, of which I’m certain I’ve lived a life that’s full I traveled each and every highway And more, much more I did it, I did it my way Regrets, I’ve had a few But then again too few to mention I did what I had to do I saw it through without exemption I planned each charted course Each careful step along the byway And more, much, much more I did it, I did it my way Yes, there were times I’m sure you knew When I bit off more than I could chew But through it all, when there was doubt I ate it up and spit it out I faced it all and I stood tall and did it my way For what is a man, what has he got? If not himself then he has naught Not to say the things that he truly feels And not the words of someone who kneels The record shows I took all the blows and did it my way Disclaimer All The Song Copyrights Belong To Their Real Respective Owners, This Videos Is For Listening Pleasures and Entertainment Purposes Only.
