Sobre el álbum
Con Double Trouble, de 1967, tenemos otra de las bandas sonoras de la etapa final de la carrera cinematográfica de Elvis Presley en Hollywood. Como era habitual en esta época, el álbum es una colección de canciones de una calidad muy irregular, escritas para una comedia de espías ambientada en Europa. Es uno de sus trabajos más flojos.
El material del disco es en su mayoría olvidable. Las canciones son repetitivas y carecen de la energía y la inspiración de sus grandes obras. El álbum es un ejemplo más del agotamiento de la fórmula de Hollywood.
Pese a ello, el disco incluye algunos bonus tracks que lo salvan del desastre total, como la magnífica "I Love You Because", una de sus primeras grabaciones de Sun Records que fue incluida aquí.
'Double Trouble' es un trabajo que solo se justifica por la presencia de estas joyas ocultas. Es un nuevo testimonio de que, incluso en sus peores momentos, siempre había un destello del genio que fue.

Letra
Some guys fall in love with one girl, I gotta fall for two There's just so much loving that one heart's supposed to do So I go around with my heart dragging on the ground Dogging me around, I'm the sorriest sight in town [Chorus] I got double trouble, I got double trouble I got double trouble twice as much as anybody else oh yeah! I guess there's gotta be two dark clouds hanging over me My future looks a bumpy as a matchbox on the sea Every time I think that I have finally got it made Some losing cards are played, I just can't make the grade [Chorus: x2] - Baby, If You'll Give Me All of Your Love1:47
- Could I Fall in Love1:42
Letra
Could I fall in love for the very first time That's what I ask myself when you're lips touch mine Could I fall in love on a night like tonight That's what I'd like to know when I hold you tight Now that we're alone (Now that we're alone) Just a kiss apart (Just a kiss apart) I have the answer from the feeling in my heart Could I fall in love and forever be true My heart tells me I could if I fell for you - Long Legged Girl (With the Short Dress On)1:27
- City by Night3:03
Letra
When shadows beckon on dim-lit avenues Night people hear the call From hidden alleys, secret rendezvous They come out one and all The city by night I'm wide awake It never sleeps make no mistake Whatever sets off the spark A magic glow lights the dark Then I'm intrigued by the sight Of the city by night Those crowded nightclubs Those picturesque cafes Are scenes no-one forgets And I'm enchanted, music softly plays By dancing silhouettes The city by night I'm wide awake It never sleeps make no mistake The evening's full of surprise It's magic opens my eyes And I'm intrigued by the sight Of the city by night Yeah! - Old MacDonald2:04
- I Love Only One Girl1:52
- There Is So Much World to See1:55
- It Won't Be Long1:45

- Blue River2:10
Letra
Blue river, it can't be found on any map that I know But it's the place where lonely lovers all go To cry their tears, blue river It winds along a path of heartache and pain Of broken dreams from lovin' someone in vain Like I loved you, and baby I still do I held you so tight You were out of my sight I'm feelin' so low But I gotta go Blue river because you never really cared about me From now on baby that's where I'm gonna be Cryin' over you, by the river of blue - What Now, What Next, Where To?1:55
