I love this song for so many reasons, but it's just an incredible soul-wrenching song to play on guitar - stuff just comes out. "This Boy" is too. So plaintively beautiful.
God, rich people suck. This must've been a benefit of some kind, and you can hear people blabbering through the whole song. Couldn't they stop the inane chat for a couple of minutes to hear Elvis Costello play an insanely gorgeous song with Fab Faux??
Who the fuck talks during something like this?
