Nice find colonel snow, shame it's incomplete.

1. The duck, the cat and me - Tepper and Bennett (poor song)
2. That's how you look to me - Rick Ward and Sid Feller (duet - good)
3. Please be mine tonight - Bernie Wayne and Marvin Moore (average ballad)
4. The Vega - Joy Byers (listed previously in this thread)(decent song)
5. The Vega dance of chance - Tepper and Bennett - (a pretty weak song)
`That's how you look to me` is a duet comedy song, along the lines of `The lady loves me`.

And almost inaudible.
"Beat The Bongo" is a much cooler title than "Do The Vega", which never made much sense to me.
Anybody has the whole track in better sound quality ?

I would think The duck, the cat and me is not that serious either.

I've searched, but nothing so far.

The Duck is sad, the cat is sad and he is sad, complete with crying Duck and Cat noises.
But It lacks charm or humour.

You joke, right?
Cat noises on a demo?

They wrote `The city's awake` in this style with the same demo singer, which became `City by night`(Double trouble) with a lyric rewrite. I don't know if `The City's awake` was first submitted for `Viva las Vegas` or only submitted for `Double trouble`, It would certainly fit with the Las Vegas theme.
1. Viva las Vegas (alt song) - possibly Giant/Baum/Kaye.
Possibly?
2. The city's awake (later rewrote as `City by night`) - Giant/Baum/Kaye.
