I had no idea that Elvis covered this, I assumed it was written for the film, even though many of the film songs were covers!! Thanks for the heads up.

Because singles had a limited playing time* in the fifties and early sixties, occasionally songs were recorded as part 1 on the A-side and part 2 on the B-side.
I first noticed this when I got the single Shout parts 1 and 2 by The Isley Brothers.

* also radio in those days did not play songs that were longer than circa 2 minutes and 30 seconds.
This changed when in the late sixties songs got longer and technically it was possible to press 8 minutes of music on one side of a single.
