Suppose

The song was written by Dee-Goehring and selected for the movie Easy come easy go (1966); the song wasn't used for this movie but recorded on 20 june 1967 for the movie Speedway (two versions).

In 1966, he made a home recording of this song at Rocca Place, Hollywood.

Some overdubs were added on 20th March, 1967, & the resulting track was on the 1993 5-CD set: The Essential 60s Masters.

In 1999, the original undubbed recording was released on the CD: The Home Recordings.

Western Union

The recorded song was originally selected for the movie Speedway with other previously recorded songs; however the idea was cancelled and new songs were recorded for the movie.

Recenty I digged up a few more songs submitted for the movie Easy come easy go:

The first script was dated: 18 march 1966 (120 pages) and written by: Antony Lawrence – Allan Weiss.
Final selection for the script (130 pages) was made 12 september 1966 with changes till 4 october 1966.

Discovered songs besides the wellknown titles:

Surf city (Brian Wilson-Jan Berry);
I found a girl (Phil Sloan-Steve Barri);
The little old lady (from Pasadena) (Don Atfield-Roger Christian).

However these songs were rejected in the pre-selection by the various changes in the script.

Thanks, colonel. That's interesting.

I'm not surprised that those songs were rejected. It's hard to imagine a 31 year old Elvis singing those teen oriented lyrics ("Two girls for every boy"...).

Ha, ha. That was the country version of the Jan & Dean classic, I guess...

What is ironic is in the movies, ie. blue hawaii and Fun in acapulco, he has teenagers hitting on him, and he makes jokes
about being in diapers or whatever, of them being so young, and yet by 1963 Priscilla was living at Graceland.
