From
the film G.I. Blues in 1960,
originally released as an album track on the soundtrack album in 1960.
Produced with Accordian, Puppets & Kids (in the Film), and Elvis singing
engagingly in German. Based on an old German folk song "Mus I Denn
Zum Stadtele Naus". The single was enormously successful in the UK
and Germany.
