Un vrai cadeau pré-Noël que l'on devrait tous
s'offrir que cette édition de "Peace in the
Valley". Ma première étoile va à "Softly and
Tenderly" cette hymne originalement joué de
façon amusante avec Jerry Lee Lewis. C'est
la douceur du cœur même d'Elvis que l'on y
entend.

"I Just Can't Make It By Myself" remporte
haut la main la palme de la deuxième étoile.
C'est une voie tracée que l'on soit ou non
croyant. Ici le chant "Gospel" prend tout son
sens. Le concept même d'un monde, non pas
meilleur, mais "Ailleurs" duquel on puise la
force de surmonter les difficultés de la vie y
est ici exprimé avec l'âme, l'identité profonde
du chanteur.

Cette édition en soit, en même temps que
l'album "White Christmas" pour le premier
Noël du nouveau millénaire mérite la
troisième étoile. Noël étant par essence
l'Évangile des évangiles, la bonne nouvelle
des bonnes nouvelles. Alors si "Gospel" égal
chant évangélique, ici "Gospel = Christmas".

"Seeing is Believin'" ou voir c'est croire…Le
levé du soleil, la majesté des montagnes, les
océans qui grondent jusqu'aux rivages les
plus lointains… Au-delà des monts et des
vallées, Elvis voit les pléiades créées par un
être plus grand que vous et moi. C'est la
quatrième étoile.

Dans son "You Better Run" Elvis se
déchaîne avec le rythme qu'on lui connaît.
Les voix d'accompagnements dans les tons
graves et aigus donnent à l'interprétation une
saveur de cinquième étoile incontournable.

Christmas = Gospel

Five stars. The first one for that "Softly and
Tenderly" originally performed with Jerry
Lee Lewis. Elvis' inspired voice brings joys
and faith to those who listen.
The second star, for "I Just Can't Make It By
Myself". Making the goal clear to everybody.
The third star for "How Great Thou Art" is
masterpiece with "Amazing Grace".
The fourth star goes for the gift of this
release that brings the following equation
(Christmas = Gospel).
If "Seeing is Believin'", earring Elvis' heart
trough the music of is soul is finding the way
to overcome sadness and tears. Fifth star
goes to "You Better Run" and its rhythmic
for it talks about real life, our society who
will find no peace on earth but "Peace in the
Valley" with God children’s.
