Kissin' Cousins (sang)

"Kissin' Cousins" er en komposition af Fred Wise og Randy Starr og er indsunget af Elvis Presley. "Kissin' Cousins" var titelnummer til Elvis Presley-filmen Kissin' Cousins fra marts 1964. Sangen blev indspillet af Elvis i RCAs Studio B i Nashville[1] den 30. september 1963.

Sangen blev udsendt den 10. februar 1964 som A-side på en singleplade med "It Hurts Me" (Joy Byers, Charlie Daniels) som B-side. Endvidere udkom "Kissin' Cousins" i april 1964, kort tid efter filmens premiere, på en LP-plade med soundtracket fra filmen. Soundtracket hed ligeledes Kissin' Cousins.

"Kissin' Cousins" er endvidere udsendt på CD'en fra 18. juli 1995 Command Performances – The Essential 60's Masters, vol. 2[2], som er en samling af de bedre af Elvis' filmsange fra hans 31 spillefilm.
