"Bossa Nova Baby" was initially given to Tippie & The Clovers, who recorded and released the song in 1962 with a samba rhythm and a Farfisa hook. However, it flopped and did not chart. Elvis Presley recorded the song for the 1963 motion picture Fun In Acapulco, despite it having little to do with Acapulco or bossa nova. This version was in a rock and roll style with an organic riff, electric guitar and a mariachi band. "Bossa Nova Baby" reached the Top 10 in several countries, with the highest positions in Belgium and Norway, where it reached the runner-up slot.
