The original version of this song was part of the soundtrack to the movie "Live A Little, Love A Little" and released as a single in the U.K. in 1968. A different version of the song was recorded by Elvis during the 1968 NBC TV Special and it was later selected for use in the 2001 movie; "Ocean's Eleven".
Dutch musician Tom Holkenborg, aka "Junkie XL" remixed this version of the song and it was selected by sportswear brand Nike, to be used for the 2002 Soccer World Cup in a worldwide ad campaign.​​ The song was a massive hit, reaching the top spot in over 20 countries.
​
The song was added to the upcoming album: "Elvis 30 #1 Hits" (which essentially made his tally 31 number ones).​
