The Asian CD single of "Rubberneckin" which was first announced on the Elvis Express website is a fake.
The man behind the issue had only 3 produced professionally and decided to send a copy to the Elvis Express to see if there was a reaction, he told the Elvis Express "The cover of the BMG release is terrible and so I decided to produce my very own the way I personally felt the cover should have been and the reaction has been superb from fans around the world."

Well good on him, he is completely justified in saying the BMG cover is an absolute disgrace. Yet again, what a brilliant opportunity wasted.

I knew it was a FAKE the moment I saw it. Take a good look again, there is No BMG logo anywhere. But still, it was a good effort - a real nice CD-R. Yes - the cover design is so much better than the Official release. What a Shame!

There will always be someone who can do promos better.
Here is a response from the Graceland staff regarding the quality of promotion of "Rubberneckin:' "
No one can force this or any other particular radio station
to get behind "Rubberneckin'". It's up to the stations to decide what songs they want to play and how often.
The record company's marketing team has been pushing all stations as hard as they can. One of the best things that can happen is for fans to call stations in their area and request "Rubberneckin'".
