Song is part of the soundtrack of the movie Joe is very alive and promise was fulfilled until their deaths, when it was available
Elvis Presley He had a career beyond music. The artist acted in a series of films, but, when composing the soundtrack of one in particular, eventually made the song producer promise that he would never release her for being “too humiliating”.
In 1968, the musician recorded three songs for the feature Joe is very alive. In the book Careless Love: The Unmaking of Elvis Presley (via Cheatsheet), Peter Guralnickit is revealed that the artist saw in the project the chance to perform a “More adult character”.
However, one of the songs eventually generated some discomfort in Elvis. The artist should sing “Dominick” to a bull – which displeased him. The lyrics were not the best either, since it said “Moo, moo, move your little foot!” (“Muu, soo, stir your feet, go!”, In the free translation).
Because of this combination of factors, Elvis did not want music to see daylight – even after his death. The producer Felton Jarvis kept your word, and “Dominick” It has never been made available – until the death of both. The song was eventually released on Bootlegs’s album Elvis’ Greatest Shit (1982) and, later, in compilation Kissin ‘Cousins/Clambake/Stay Away, Joe (1984).
Perhaps part of Presley’s trauma in singing for an animal has roots in his participation in the The Steve Allen Show In 1956. At the time, the artist performed to a Bassê dog.
