At 3:02, you can hear a faint click, sounds a bit like someone closing a door in the background. It’s actually the sound of Elvis’ head hitting the mike. It wasn’t noticed until production had wrapped, so a retake was avoided by careful editing. The only reason I know this story is I took the Studio B tour at the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville, and they told us. Got to stand in the very spot where Elvis stood to do the recording too. They put an X on the floor using masking tape, so the performers would know where to stand. It was fun. They had a lovely pair of Altec Lansing VOTT type cabinets in that studio, but didn’t play them . They used the little Dynaudios that were hanging on a post. Felt like a let down.
