Liner Notes

On the Record

I made this recording for my wife and to be played during the processional at our wedding. I think the recording turned out really great, so I added the video and figured I'd upload it here for anyone who might enjoy it.

About the original

"Can't Help Falling in Love" is a song recorded by American singer Elvis Presley for the album Blue Hawaii (1961). It was written by Hugo Peretti, Luigi Creatore, and George David Weiss and published by Gladys Music, Inc. The melody is based on "Plaisir d'amour", a popular French love song composed in 1784 by Jean-Paul-Égide Martini. The song was initially written from the perspective of a woman as "Can't Help Falling in Love with Him", which explains the first and third lines ending on "in" and "sin" rather than words rhyming with "you". "Can't Help Falling in Love" was featured in Presley's 1961 film Blue Hawaii. It has also been recorded by so many other artists it was listed as one of the greatest songs of all time by Rolling Stone, ranking #403 in the list's 2012 edition.
