I remember seeing this live, such a great performance by EC. I especially liked the way he kept backing off the mic as he sang those last "ohs", really powerful. And, of course, T-Bone Wolk killing it on bass, as always!
Amazing version of a beautiful song! Elvis must have been in his Pogues-producing days... he looks a little like Shane MacGowan. (Those backing vocalists freak me out a little bit...)

G.E. Smith sort of bothers me. God, though, I love this song, and I have a serious man-crush on Elvis Costello.

@MR917621 Idunno, he looks like a creepy mannequin or something. He's a good player though.

Really fine tune after Elvis had peaked but looking back I'm not so angry anymore.

Those background singers are the acapella group Rockapella, I believe. Great singers, though those outfits.....

I would never recognize Elvis like that.
His voice is SO PERFECT.
If he spoke and didn't sing, while wearing that "disguise", I would never even know who he was.
Not that he sings in everyday life when shopping - that would be weird...funny, but weird.
