UP TO 1,200 VIEWS, 25 CHATS, COMMENTS

Elvis Presley did many movies where he sang a duet with his co-stars. Here are some of them. If you have more to fill in, please do. 


01 Crawfish w Kitty White: King Creole
02 Pocketful Of Rainbow w Juliet Prowse: G.I. Blues
03 Husky Dusky Day w Hope Lange: Wild In The Country

04 Aloha Oe w The Surfers: Blue Hawaii
05 Earth Boy w Ginny/Elisabeth Tiu: Girls! Girls! Girls!
06 How Would You Like To Be w Vicki Tiu: It Happened At The World’s Fair

07 Happy Ending w Joan O'Brien: It Happened At The World’s Fair

08 Mexico w Larry Domasin: Fun In Acapulco
09 Today Tomorrow And Forever w Ann-Margret: Viva Las Vegas

10 You’re The Boss w Ann-Margret: Viva Las Vegas
11 The Lady Loves Me w Ann-Margret: Viva Las Vegas
12 Spring Fever w Shelley Fabares: Girl Happy


13 Frankie n Johnny w Eileen Wilson/Ray Walker: Frankie n Johnny
14 Petunia The Gardener’s Daughter w Eileen Wilson: Frankie n Johnny
15 Look Out Broadway w Eileen Wilson/Ray Walker: Frankie n Johnny

16 Scratch My Back w Marianne Hill: Paradise Hawaiian Style

17 Datin’ w Donna Butterworth: Paradise Hawaiian Style
18 Queenie Wahine’s Papaya w Donna Butterworth: Paradise Hawaiian Style

19 Yoga Is As Yoga Does Elsa Lancaster: Easy Come, Easy Go
20 Who Needs Money with Ray Walker: Clambake
21 Confidence w some children: Clambake

22 There Ain’t Nothing Like A Song w Nancy Sinatra: Speedway

23 Signs Of The Zodiac w Marilyn Mason: The Trouble With Girls
Spring Fever w Shelley Fabares: Girl Happy. Elvis Presley had to churn out non-happening movies for his boss, you know who, until he got to the real Las Vegas and performed live.

I like the songs because he sings them but didn't get to see many of these shows except for King Creole, GI Blues, Blue Hawaii and It Happened At The World's Fair. The rest, sadly for Presley, became run-of-the-mill movies that were merely churning out his songs.

With Nancy Sinatra in 'Speedway' - wild romancing on the racing circuit.

HOW MANY LEADING LADIES SANG WITH ELVIS. AND HOW MANY SONGS... CHECK THEM OUT.

Andy Young
HI ROSE, THANKS FOR THE GREASE LIGHTNIN' REACTION.

Stephen Han
Only a handful of Elvis Presley’s duets are hits.

Andy Young
Yes that's true. One big leading lady felt much for Elvis for doing the series of bland movies before he returned to Vegas.

Thank you DAISY, YEN, SER KIONG and JIM for your instant LIKE.
