The best cover ever. And so happy. I love the story of it coming about since everyone was doing Elvis covers for a TV show so seriously, and then they appeared wearing leather pants....
Love the melancholy in this version. And hard to believe this is over 25 years old!
Bizarre, but excellent, video. Nice bit of weird preamble. Just a brilliant track.
Heard this on TOTP2 and it's stuck in my head now...
Pet Shop Boys Covers Week begins with a classic originally performed by Elvis Presley but perfected by synths.
