Holy shit Of all the Elvis Costello songs you could pick...and I love quite a lot of them...this is my very favorite
I love this song too. But I think Robert Wyatt's version tops Elvis's original - his voice is just so perfect for the song.
A book is a version of the world. If you do not like it, ignore it; or offer your own version in return. Salman Rushdie You talk to God, you're religious. God talks to you, you're psychotic. House MD Who needs a meaning anyway, I'd settle anyday for a very fine view. Sandy Denny This is the wrong forum for bluffing Paco Yes, yes. But first I need to show you this venomous fish! Calilasseia I think we should do whatever Pawiz wants. Twoflower Bella squats momentarily then waddles on still peeing, like a horse Millefleur
I've never heard of Robert Wyatt, but his voice seems very very familiar
I'm sorry, though, I didn't care for his version. Is that bad? I mean, criticizing someone in a wheelchair?
Does anybody know what Elvis has been up to? Has anyone followed his career? I lost interest with him in the mid 80s. Maybe he's done something worthwhile since? I'd like to see him make a comeback like his friend Nick Lowe.

People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.

Wyatt played drums in Soft Machine but fell out of a first-floor window while drunk at a party and has been in a wheelchair ever since. He has added guest vocals to lots of things - best to look him up on wiki and see if you recognise anything.
Elvis Costello has never stopped touring or releasing albums - his latest, Momofuku, came out late last year. His music is as good and as distinctive as ever.

Something for the rag and bone man
"Over my dead body"
Something big is gonna happen
"Over my dead body"
Someone's son or someone's daughter
"Over my dead body"
This is how I end up sucked in
"Over my dead body"
I'm gonna go to sleep let this wash all over me
You know we don't want the monster taking over
"Tiptoe round tie him down"
We don't want the loonies taking over
"Tiptoe round tie them down"
May pretty horses
Come to you
As you sleep
I'm gonna go to sleep
Let this wash
All over me.
