Video Premiere: Elvis and Lisa Marie Presley's 'In the Ghetto'

To commemorate the 30th anniversary of her father's death, Lisa Marie Presley not only decided 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.

(This video is no longer available for streaming on Spinner. Please visit iTunes to purchase the song or video and help a good cause.)

Well, it's finally nice to hear someone such as Lisa to speak the way we were raised. Where are all girls morals today and the common life to level ground.

I think it's about time the Grammy's to give Elvis his due. He had so many GREAT songs and yet they only gave him two for Gospel. He had so many Gold records, Broke so many records. How many outhers still draw a 70,000 crowd thirty years after they are gone. I've been a fan since I was 14 and now at 66 I'am still the fan I was all those years ago. TCB Richard

I have 6 Elvis albums 1 Elvis cd. I also have both Lisa Marie Presley cd's. I will watch Elvis and Lisa Marie Presley's "In the Ghetto video" on @aol.com and also VH-1 and on VH-1 classics. On August 16th,1977 I was 10 years 7 months and 6 days old when Elvis Presley died. And I still remembered the day that the King of Rock and Roll died.

the singing duet was absolutely wonderful but I truly don't believe that Elvis would have ever supported this controversial type of video. I found it horrifying to associate this with her father's gentle and loving soul.
