Cole Porter's " True Love", written for the 1956 musical film High Society, also made the album, either to feature a straightforward romantic song, or to give Presley and The Jordanaires an excuse for some close harmony singing. " Have I Told You Lately That I Love You?" had been done previously by the Sons of the Pioneers, as well as Bing Crosby with The Andrews Sisters. Songs were added to bring up the running time of the album, including the swing-era favorite " Blueberry Hill", which had been a big hit for Fats Domino in 1956. Wallis liked "Teddy Bear" so much that he insisted it be included in the movie. ![]() The previously released material comprises both sides of the single taken from the soundtrack, Presley's number one hit " (Let Me Be Your) Teddy Bear" backed with the film's title track, " Loving You". An eighth song intended for but not appearing in the movie, "Don't Leave Me Now", was included on the album, and a new recording appeared on the soundtrack for his next film, Jailhouse Rock. The soundtrack includes seven songs composed expressly for the movie Loving You from writers contracted to Elvis Presley Music and Gladys Music, the publishing companies owned by Presley and his manager, Colonel Tom Parker.
