Towards the end of the special, Elvis appears in a lengthy series of productions that includes singing, dancing, karate, and various situations.

The number is about a young man’s path from a struggling guitarist, through the challenges, dangers and compromises on the way to his dreams of success and stardom. Something is lost along the way. Once the dream is achieved, the man realizes that not everything he wanted has been fulfilled and that he has abandoned his true self. He decides to go back to his roots, doing what made him happy, what he does best. He sings “I’ll never be more than what I am… a swingin’ little guitar man.” The parallels with Elvis and his own life are clear and deliberate, and doing “Spatial 68” represents his own return to his true self, to his roots. Free from the confines of her Hollywood routine, this is the singer Elvis, the artist, the musician, the man, the real Elvis.

At the end of the special, Elvis appears alone, wearing a simple white two-piece suit, standing in front of the imposing backdrop of red lights with his name on it, singing a new song, “If I Can Dream“, written especially for the show. The writers created the song based in part on conversations with Elvis about his own thoughts on what was going on in the turbulent 1960s. It seemed fitting that the show would close with some sort of personal statement.
