<P> The song originally written at this point in the original musical, "All Choked Up," was similar in theme, but different in style, written as a pastiche of Elvis Presley's "All Shook Up" and with Sandy being more provocative . "All Choked Up" was one of two songs from the Jacobs / Casey score that was excised completely from both the film and the film's soundtrack . Most 21st - century performances of the musical also include "You're the One That I Want" instead of "All Choked Up ." </P> <P> Upon its release in conjunction with the film (and its status as a potential blockbuster worldwide), the single became a huge international hit, reaching number 1 in several countries . </P> <P> In the U.S. the single reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and on July 18 was certified Platinum for shipments exceeding 2 million copies . (It was already Gold by April 12 .) </P> <P> It also topped the UK Singles Chart for nine weeks in the summer of 1978, some months before the film had even been released in that country . </P>
