ELVIS PRESLEY - Love Me Tender (Original Soundtrack 1956) & Elvis Interview (New Edit) 4K
His first motion picture, Love Me Tender, was released on November 21. Though he was not top-billed, the film’s original title—The Reno Brothers—was changed to capitalize on his latest number-one record: “Love Me Tender“ had hit the top of the charts earlier that month. To further take advantage of Presley’s popularity, four musical numbers were added to what was originally a straight acting role. The film was panned by critics but did very well at the box office.[89] Presley would receive top billing on every subsequent film he made.
“Love Me Tender“ is a 1956 ballad song recorded by Elvis Presley and published by “Elvis Presley Music“ from the 20th Century Fox film of the same name. Lyrics are credited to “Vera Matson“ (though the actual lyricist was her husband, Ken Darby). The melody is identical to the sentimental Civil War ballad “Aura Lea“ (sometimes spelled “Aura Lee“) and therefore credited to Aura Lea’s composer, the Englishman George R. Poulton. The RCA Victor recording by Elvis Presley was No. 1 on both the Billboard and Cashbox charts in 1956.
The 1956 song “Love Me Tender“ puts new words to a new musical adaptation of the Civil War song “Aura Lea,“ published in 1861. “Aura Lea“ had music by George R. Poulton and words by W. W. Fosdick. It later became popular with college glee clubs and barbershop quartets. It was also sung at the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York.
The principal writer of the lyrics was Ken Darby, who also adapted Poulton’s Civil War tune, which was in the public domain. The song was published by Elvis Presley Music.[3] and credited to Presley and Darby’s wife Vera Matson. Presley received co-songwriting credit due to his Hill & Range publishing deal which demanded songwriters concede 50 percent of the credit of their song if they wanted Presley to record it; Presley had songwriting input on only a very small number of the many songs he recorded.[4] Darby was often asked about his decision to credit the song to his wife along with Presley, and his standard response was an acid, “because she didn’t write it either“.[5]
As with nearly all his early RCA recordings, Presley took control in the studio despite not being credited as producer. He would regularly change arrangements.[citation needed] Ken Darby described Elvis Presley’s role in the recording of the song:
He adjusted the music and the lyrics to his own particular presentation. Elvis has the most terrific ear of anyone I have ever met. He does not read music, but he does not need to. All I had to do was play the song for him once, and he made it his own! He has perfect judgment of what is right for him. He exercised that judgment when he chose ’Love Me Tender’ as his theme song.
