Kodi Lee Sounds Just Like Elvis Presley Singing "Blue Suede Shoes": Listen
The America's Got Talent Season 14 winner did the King proud with this cover.
In 2020, America's Got Talent Season 14 winner Kodi Lee did an ultra blues-y cover of a classic '50s tune at an event for the Unicorn Children's Foundation: "Blue Suede Shoes" by Elvis Presley.
During his performance, Lee sounded remarkably like the King, singing in a deep, Memphis-like register. He then played an impressive piano breakdown, not missing a single note. He encouraged the crowd to put their hands together, and they clapped along enthusiastically while having a blast.
Check out the super fun performance here.

"Blue Suede Shoes" by Elvis Presley lyrics
Well, it's one for the money two for the show
Three to get ready now go, cat, go
But don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Well you can do anything but
Lay off of my blue suede shoes
Well, you can knock me down, step in my face
Slander my name all over the place
Do anything that you want to do
But uh-uh honey, lay off of my shoes
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes
Now let's go cats (oh walk the dogs)
You can burn my house, steal my car
Drink my liquor from an old fruit-jar
Do anything that you want to do
But uh-uh baby, lay off of my shoes
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes
Rock it
Well, it's one for the money, two for the show
Three to get ready now go, cat, go
But don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Well you can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes
Go cat uh
Blue, blue suede shoes oh baby
Blue, blue suede shoes uh ha
Blue, blue suede shoes oh baby
Blue, blue suede shoes
You do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes
