Elvis Costello covers "End of the Rainbow", written by Richard Thompson. One of the saddest songs I know, a dark tune about disillusion.

  • I was at an EC concert in the early 80's (I know that dates me, whatever) and he covered this song. I had never heard it before until then. In the stadium of 7,000 people there was a stunned silence. You could hear a pin drop because it was so beautiful and omninous at the same time! Thanks for loading this vid!

  • whilst the rest of us appreciate a different version of a great song

  • Brilliant.

  • It makes sense for EC to cover RT, espcially this song -- they are both brilliant but dark

  • PS:  For the naysayers....it can't all be "Pump it Up" all the time!

  • Elvis Costello - Richard Thompson = Huge Mutual Respect. They are very different, and vive la difference! Two men of immense, unique talent.

  • @HarleyjXXX HEY so whats it like being an idiot , fun? i guess not

  • @HarleyjXXX and holy crap i just saw your page , your the last to point fingers in bad taste
