The single is certified [[RIAA certification|Platinum]] by the [[Recording Industry Association of America|RIAA]], for US sales in excess of one million copies. In the United States, the song peaked at No. 2 on the US [[Billboard Hot 100|''Billboard'' Hot 100]] behind [[Joey Dee and the Starliters]]' "[[Peppermint Twist]]"<ref>{{citation|url=http://www.billboard.com/charts/hot-100/1962-02-03|title=Music: Top 100 – Billboard Hot 100 Chart|magazine=Billboard|date=January 2, 2013|access-date=October 21, 2017|archive-date=September 5, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230905082417/https://www.billboard.com/charts/hot-100/1962-02-03/|url-status=live}}</ref> and went to No. 1 on the [[Adult Contemporary (chart)|Adult Contemporary]] chart for six weeks.<ref>{{citation|url=http://www.billboard.com/charts/adult-contemporary/1962-01-13|title=Adult Contemporary Chart – Billboard|magazine=Billboard|date=January 2, 2013|access-date=October 21, 2017|archive-date=September 5, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230905082418/https://www.billboard.com/charts/adult-contemporary/1962-01-13/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |title= Top Adult Contemporary: 1961–2001|last=Whitburn |first=Joel |author-link=Joel Whitburn |year=2002 |publisher=Record Research |page=196}}</ref>

During Presley's late 1960s and 1970s live performances, the song was performed as the shows' finales. Most notably, it was also sung in the live segment of his 1968 [[NBC]] television special ''[[Elvis (1968 TV program)|Elvis]]'', and as the closer for his 1973 global telecast ''[[Aloha from Hawaii via Satellite]]''. A version with a faster arrangement was the closing number in Presley's final TV special, ''[[Elvis in Concert]]''. "Can't Help Falling in Love" was also the last song he performed live, at his concert in [[Indianapolis]] at [[Market Square Arena]] on June 26, 1977.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/elvis-presley/1977/market-square-arena-indianapolis-in-33d698cd.html|title=Elvis Presley Setlist at Market Square Arena, Indianapolis|website=Setlist.fm|access-date=April 22, 2021|archive-date=October 21, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201021124904/https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/elvis-presley/1977/market-square-arena-indianapolis-in-33d698cd.html|url-status=live}}</ref>

The recording appeared on the 1997 CD re-issue ''[[Elvis' Golden Records Volume 3]]'' as a bonus track and on the 2002 career retrospective collection ''[[ELV1S: 30 No. 1 Hits]]''. In 2010, the song was included on the ''[[Viva Elvis (soundtrack)|Viva Elvis: The Album]]''. This is a remixed version that features Canadian singer Sherry St-Germain. Interestingly the track fades out with Elvis repeating part of the 1956 song "[[Love Me (Leiber/Stoller song)|Love Me]]". In 2015, the song was included on the ''[[If I Can Dream (album)|If I Can Dream]]'' album on the 80th anniversary of Presley's birth. The version uses archival voice recordings of Presley and his singers, backed by new orchestral arrangements performed by the [[Royal Philharmonic Orchestra]]. The song is used as an anthem by several English football clubs since the 1960s, including [[Huddersfield Town]], [[Hull City]], [[Swindon Town]] and [[Sunderland A.F.C.|Sunderland]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.sportingferret.com/2021/01/25/football-songs-a-brief-introduction/|title=Football songs – a brief introduction|date=January 25, 2021|access-date=June 20, 2021|archive-date=June 24, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210624201321/https://www.sportingferret.com/2021/01/25/football-songs-a-brief-introduction/|url-status=live}}</ref> According to a 2020 survey by OnBuy, the song is the most popular choice for couples as the song for the [[First dance#Weddings|first dance]] at their wedding.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.marieclaire.co.uk/life/weddings/first-dance-song-likely-end-divorce-711446|title=Apparently 75% of marriages fail because of this wedding song|last=Troy-Pryde|first=Jadie|date=23 September 2020|work=[[Marie Claire]]|accessdate=6 December 2021|archive-date=September 5, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230905082419/https://www.marieclaire.co.uk/life/weddings/first-dance-song-likely-end-divorce-711446|url-status=live}}</ref>
