While finishing his album "King of America", singer-songwriter Elvis Costello recorded demos for this and several other songs, such as "Blue Chair" and "American Without Tears." During his 1986 work on "Blood & Chocolate", Costello recorded a version of this song, though it was not used for that album. It would later appear on his "Kojak Variety" album, a collection of '50s and '60s rock and roll standards.
