Very personal interviews, story's, and Performances, You'll Only Get Here!(If you Love Jesus and Elvis) This is a MUST-HAVE!! Enjoy & BE-BLESSED! (ScottyG. Knows You Will)!!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A must have
Review: Everyone knows the story of Elvis from the 50's rocker to the 60s movie star to the 70's vegas performer. But this offers not only excellent gospel music but also a look on the inside of how much gospel music meant to Elvis and those he surrounded himself with.

Instead of interviews with the standard cast of characters like Joe Esposito and others this offers insight from people you know from on stage but atleast I had not scene interviewed before.

Simply put this exceeded my expectations and I only wish there was more footage of Elvis singing gospel, but unfortunately I believe it is very limited. If you are an Elvis fan you will enjoy this compilation.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Elvis, God and the Devil
Review: I am not a Christian but i do like gospel music. It's amazing to see the drugs,food and sex addicted Elvis performing such great gospel songs. What a performer and what a man he was.
I really liked this dvd and it's worth the money.
A great docu and great music.

Summary: Elvis would have been bored
Review: I am sorry, being a big Elvis fan I thought that this DVD would be good-not so-On the first disc I noted about 3 short clips that were not boring. The rest was long drawn out and monotone interviews. It is so bad I have not even bothered to watch the second part. Even if it's 4 times better it's still bad

My advice, do not bother you must have better things to do with your money and time

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: not accessible
Review: I bought this CD as listening therapy, I am hearing impaired with a cochlear implant and thought this would be good practice. However, the box case says "closed captioned" and I tried and tried and could not make the captions appear. The music did sound great as far as I can hear it considering, but I;d like to have words so I can follow along and be sure that's what I'm hearing. I was disappointed in that. So now I'm either going to return it or give it as a gift.

Summary: An excellent look at Elvis' often overlooked spiritual side
Review: I caught this biography on my local PBS station. I was almost moved to tears, as He Touched Me brought to life the spirituality and faith of Elvis Presley. Here was not the Elvis of the tabloids or the Elvis of popular assumption. Here was an Elvis that was entirely down-to-earth, a man who performed and sang with real conviction and real faith behind his words. As told in the biography, Elvis once stopped a concert midway to point out to screaming fans in the first row that, despite their sign proclaiming him King, he was not, and that God was. He Touched Me is full of inspiring revelations of the Elvis we all think we know.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Too Much Talking and Too Little Music
Review: I felt ripped off because this DVD consists of mostly talks by people about Elvis and very little singing by Elvis himself. Even when he sings, the songs were chopped off, cut and sliced. It's impossible to enjoy any music of Elvis with this DVD. To make matters worst, there is nothing enlightening or interesting in those interviews. It's mostly very boring and repetitious remarks about how Elvis liked gospel music, etc. etc. etc.

The title of this DVD is very very misleading. Beware!

Summary: Powerful and emotional unique look at the King.
Review: I have always loved Elvis' Gospel music. This DVD shows an indepth look into the Spiritual life of Elvis and his love and longing to love the Lord. I found the interviews to be very inspiring and hopeful for Elvis' salvation. One interview with one of the Sweet Inspirations tells of Elvis and praying and laying hands for healing on one of the girls because she had an tumor which she was healed of.
Any fan of E who wants to know the deepest workings of the man must have this DVD to understand him and trials. One book quotes his aunt believing Elvis did all his drugs because of the guilt of his life style. With that said remember these things Elvis died reading Insearch of the Face of Jesus and the King of Rock and Roll won 3 Grammies ALL for GOSPEL music!!! GOD bless you all JB

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: To less music
Review: I think Elvis gospels are great. The problem with this nice DVD is that it's filled for more than 50% of people who are talking about Elvis. The one thing I did not like was that the songs, which I think are the most important, are cut into pieces with people who are talking about Elvis. There is no way that you can listen and see Elvis perform without the talking. For the diehards it's a real must, but for me who like the songs the most, will give this DVD away.
