Listen to Setzer's remake of Carl Mann's Mona Lisa, then listen to Elvis'
I'm Coming Home (take 2)
Both are cool, but the similarities are certainly noticeable.

If my sources aren't mistaking, Carl Mann actually released "I'm Coming Home" in 1960 on Phillips International, roughly one year before Elvis released his version on the "Something For Everybody"-album. Elvis pretty much borrowed Carl Mann's arrangement. Great song!
