"Blue Hawaii" is far and away my favourite Elvis movie - I've got the soundtrack album and everything. Elv had some nice, simple pared-down numbers - sometimes just him and a ukulele - but I don't think even The King would've had the chutzpah to tackle "Can't Help Falling in Love" with just his own bongo for accompaniment. This guy puts the 'rad' in Conrad...
Trainspotter's footnote: "Can't Help Falling in
Love" would become the standard closer for an Elvis Presley concert in the
1970s, & went to number two on the Billboard Hot 100.
