Wow ! This is really something. I've been a fan over the years, but wasn't aware of this. Elvis proves as well as being a great new wave artist, he's also a top balladeer. Thanks a million for the upload. Excuse me while I wipe my eyes.......
He was really at the sweet spot of his talent at this point in his career; the power of his personality was still submissive to his musical sense, which he expressed masterfully because he was finally at ease.
This is on Trust? Must be an extended version. On my 1981 vinyl album there's 14 songs, all Costello originals and not a bad track on it. This is a good cover, though - I don't usually like Costello doing other people's material, but this is excellent.
Was looking for original 1930 renditions of this song today and found this one at the same time; he does pretty well except takes a few liberties with the melody and lyrics.
I'm gobsmacked. I love Elvis, and I love Cole. I thought I knew this album but clearly this track missed me until today.
And I cry. Damn genius x 2

The immortal Cole Porter.
Elvis did the song justice.
