August 25, 201014 yr Just seen this sad news :( George David Weiss, 'Can't Help Falling in Love' composer, dies at 89: George David Weiss, 89, a songsmith whose chart-topping hits in the 1960s included 'Can't Help Falling in Love', 'The Lion Sleeps Tonight' and 'What a Wonderful World' and endure as musical standards today, died Aug. 23 at his home near Oldwick, N.J. No cause of death was reported. Many of Mr. Weiss's songs were performed by giants of the entertainment industry, including Nat King Cole, Perry Como, Ella Fitzgerald and Sammy Davis Jr., and some of his tunes have become memorably tied to their original singers. His ballad "Can't Help Falling in Love," originally performed by Elvis Presley, peaked on the Billboard charts at No. 2 in 1962 and was featured on the soundtrack of the 1961 classic family film "Blue Hawaii." In 1961, Mr. Weiss added the lyrics, "In the jungle, the mighty jungle," to a popular, infectious melody to create the No. 1 Billboard hit "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" for the Tokens.
