This is the soundtrack to the movie "Great Balls of Fire." This song is an anachronism in the movie, it was not originally recorded until '62. I Like that version better, it has saxaphone and backup singers and totally rocks!
ILTSYC, My sentiments exactly, I had, after many no-shows, the pleasure of seeing Jerry Lee in Blackpool, Lancs., he was only on stage for 45 minutes but that 45 minutes will live with me forever. I am now 73 years of age and still loving rock 'n' roll, visited Gracelands, wandered Sun Studios, touched Jerry's original piano, I am one lucky guy.
@GeoSilverAway This version of the song is his 1989 re-recording for the movie "Great Balls of Fire" lip-synced by Dennis Quaid in the movie. The original was his England comeback song in the early sixties when he returned to England after leaving in disgrace in 1958. In the movie he simply sings this song while in England the first time. Great song. There's footage of him doing it in England in black & white and everyone is rocking beside the piano...

Elvis just might been the best looking man to ever have lived. Plus his voice was 50 times better than Jerry Lee's. Jerry has more original talent and I love him. He is awe inspiring. Elvis was one good looking mother fucker though you can't take that away from him. Look up Elvis- Hell have to go - and watch the slide show of some of his younger pics. He could have easily been a James Bond in the movies too.
When people talk about who the true king of rock and roll, two names always come to mind, and neither of them are that overrated bloated prick Elvis. One name is Jerry Lee Lewis, the other is Buddy Holly.

We all have our preferences.
What's the story on the two studio recordings he did of this one? I agree the one with more backup is better.
@gil435345345345 ''he's on fire'' its called unless you already found it since it was a year ago you asked haha
@scarface2891 Regardless of that. Elvis is still the King and is still called the King.
