The Elvis Costello Thread: Because He Deserves It! - PennyLane - 27-05-2012

Elvis Costello is wonderful. Pure talent. I come home from a long day and put " My Aim is True " on the turntable and fall into bliss. So I decided to create this thread for everyone to post their favorite Costello tracks and comment on others, maybe get some discussion flowing. And for those of you who are not familiar with his music, well now you can get a good listen ( hopefully).

So it is hard for me to pick a favorite, but I will. I have two but one is hard to find a video to but it is Elvis Costello - Radio Sweetheart, I absolutely adore that track.

Now the other track is a rare track of his. It is unbelievably beautiful and plucks at the heart strings. Absolutely lovely.

Sorry, going to have to pass on this one. Never been a EC fan. His voice irritates me for some reason.

yep..one of those artists who you either love or hate i guess...

you should check out some of his song lyrics though..i find him to be quite articulate,emotive and 'thinking outside the square" for the most part...

either way, one of only a couple of artists to survive the late 1970s punk era and still constantly recording

IMHO Elvis never released a bad album! Must be an interesting household with his wife, the Canadian jazz pianist Diana Krall!

National Ransom was reviewed earlier on MD...it's a great album!..with a cool cover!
