The moron producer should have been asking elvis what the song was BEFORE they started....interrupting the genius after he started? Elvis handles it well.
This is from the DVD, The Right Spectacle. A great video to buy. It has EC's videos and then some gems like this one. I like Trust best - yes, even better than Armed Forces and This Years Model......Thanks for posting!
Wow! I never knew a video existed of this masterpiece. This was an early sign of how diverse Elvis Costello's musical interests were. I remember when Trust came out listening to this track over and over.

I agree. I have always loved Get Happy and This Years from the early years, but Trust might just be the best!

Wow. "Trust" may be the best. At least top three. Best lyricist in rock.

Too beautiful. Elvis' lovely poetry and phrasing, with a smidge of Tom Waits thrown in. Nice.
