I can’t imagine what she must have felt while singing this song,but I do know what it’s like to lose a father. Watch it!
Lisa Marie Presley was able to sing alongside her late father thanks to a mash-up of each of their performance of Elvis’ iconic song “In the Ghetto.” The black-and-white video shows scenes of adorable babies, The King performing at one of his concerts, and Lisa Marie giving her rendition of the song.
The video is kind of dark since it has scenes of babies holding guns in their cribs. The video features the two artist’s individual performances that turn into an incredible duet that could be recorded and released on an album. Each of the performance was recorded in black and white and gives a solemn feel to the video.
Lisa Marie lost her father when she was just 9 years old. She became the sole heir to Elvis’ estate after the death of her grandparents. She has since followed her in father’s famous footsteps and released her album, To Whom It May Concern, which reached No. 5 on the Billboard 200 Album charts.
Here is the Lisa Marie and Elvis Presley duet of In The Ghetto recorded to commemorate the 30th anniversary of her father’s death. Lisa Marie said she decided not only to sing, but to sing with him.’I wanted to use this for something good’, she tells Spinner of her posthumous ‘In the Ghetto’ duet with Elvis Presley. ‘All fingers pointed towards New Orleans’. She filmed the video in the hurricane-ravaged city, and all proceeds from the video and single will benefit a new Presley Place transitional housing campus there.
