'Can't Help Falling In Love'
was featured in the 1961 Elvis
movie Blue Hawaii. According
to songwriter George Weiss,
neither the movie producers
nor Elvis' associates liked
the song demo. Elvis insisted
on recording this song for the
movie. This was Elvis' most
popular and famous 'love
song,' but it was not sung to
his love interest in Blue
Hawaii - It was sung to his
grandmother on the occasion of
her birthday. Elvis presented
her with a music box, which
she opened and it played the
song, which Elvis then sang
along with. The soundtrack to
Blue Hawaii hit #1 on the US
charts in the fall of 1961 and
remained there for 20 weeks in
a row, a record that wasn't
broken until 1977 by Fleetwood
Mac's landmark album Rumours.
The melody is based on a
French song called 'Plaisir
D'Amour.' Elvis ended his
concerts with this. UB40
covered this in 1993 with a
Reggae beat. Their version was
a #1 hit in the US. This
appeared on the soundtrack of
the animated feature Lilo and
Stitch, which - like the
original version - was also
set in Hawaii. U2 cover this
song: Can't Help Falling in
