One of the greatest wordsmiths in music. He often paints a story in a mosaic of words and sound to invoke a feeling. (Unlike many popular artists with their literal and boring “daily affirmation” anthems, with titles like “I’m so tough”, or “I’m unbeatable”, to be played for infinity on TikTok.
What a beautiful Danelectro he's playing. People crap on those guitars but they actually are some of the best out there, along with the old Silvertone.
BilisNegra well DUH, genius. I doubt many would know the name of the song. The fact we do doesn't make either of us fkin geniuses. I only mentioned it so people can listen to the original, twat.
This Elvis Costello record is very good, totally underrated!
The man is a complete genius

Best singer ever!
Even ten years on, this is such a great track. The "Un" is more Beck than Beck.
Another Episode of Blonde is a hell of a song there's no denying it, reminds me of Up the Junction.
Mina, "Un bacio è troppo poco" & Elvis!
Beat with un
Looks identical to my Danelectro '56 Reissue U2 Baritone Guitar (Limo Black) MIK (made in Korea), first reissue w/wood bridge.
Wow. This guy knows chords. Shook his hand once. Didn't rub off, sadly.
this is soooo hip =)
He´s got an ear for beautiful distortion.
When I Was Cruel is probably the cruellest, nastiest album Costello ever recorded, even compared with his early "angry young punk" albums.
way cool hat!!!!
It's a nasty & cruel song but also sad & heartbreaking...
love is cruel
In welk RTL4 programma was deze schitterende uitvoering van When I Was Cruel te zien?
Barend & Van Dorp
@robotube ? Elvis was never punk - he just happened to start recording as punk started up.
Excuse me if If it's been discussed but does anyone know exactly what that guitar is? Thanks.
Wow, almost exact musical carbon copy of Mina's 1965 hit 'Un baccio e troppo poco'.
NO SHIT!!!! Maybe because it includes a loop sample from that song, you genius?

I thought it was from "Dancing Queen"?
At least that's what I believe the liner notes say.
He's often put references to ABBA in his songs
he writes words like nobody's bizz
@ b1iidc65 - Nope, it was A Taste Of Honey. Still one hit wonders but wrong band. ;-)
