They said "Words fail us !"

No, seriously, I've never heard of any reaction from them.

I bet they were tickled pink at having one of their songs covered by Elvis.

I've heard about the Bee gees reactio to his death.

They had just finished writing the material for Saturday Night Fever soundtrack (in France) and had landed in NYC (8-16-77) and while in the airport were told Elvis had just been pronounced dead. They were shocked.

When the BeeGees held a concert in HongKong a few years back, one of the twins, forgot which one, said when they heard Elvis recorded Words, it just blew them away.
