Cant Help Falling in Love...

Elvis made a great song. However, IMO, Lick the Tins made it better. If anyone remembers the movie Some kind of wonderful, then you will remember the Lick the Tins version of this song. Here is Amazon's take on it.

Amazon.com
While most '80s soundtracks offer collections of radio-friendly hits from haircut bands, the Some Kind of Wonderful soundtrack features quirky non-hits from bands like the Jesus & Mary Chain, Flesh for Lulu, and the Apartments. This delightfully non-mainstream soundtrack features Stephen Duffy's "Lonesome," the March Violets' unforgettable cover of the Rolling Stones' "Miss Amanda Jones," and Pete Shelley's "Do Anything." The highlight of the CD is unquestionably Lick the Tins' gravel-voiced, tin-whistle-driven cover of "Can't Help Falling in Love." Just listening to this CD can throw you into a John Hughes nostalgia tailspin that you may not want to come out of. --L.A. Smith


Anyway here is my version of the Lick the Tins Whistle Intro for Can't Help Falling in Love With You. Enjoy!
