My Christmas gift to you. More melancholly courtesy of Mr Costello and off his folky 'King of America' album. Think there's some sort of social commentary going on here involving dodgy priests, Cadbury's chocolate and recurring abusive relationships. We're all dooooomed! Played in Am on the 3rd fret and tuned down to D.

@navim49 From listening to alot of Graham Parker, I'm going to guess his songs are a challenge vocally. His vocals are unique and I think he writes to accommodate those qualities. Maybe that's why people don't cover him...but they should. I love his songwriting.

You're pretty good, Sparky. It's a rare thing to find a decent EC remake on You Tube.

@bettyfelon1 Thanks Betty. I've done quite a few EC covers if you're interested in having a listen. I must do some Graham Parker soon. He doesn't get covered enough.

@deborahsuewho Hi Deborah. Thanks for your comment. I too love all things E.C. I attempted a few more covers from his vast collection if you're interested. You're welcome over at my channel any time!

@frippp66 Ahh a proper Elvis fan, and Pogues too. You've got taste! Thanks for comment. I do 'Thousands are Sailing' if you're ever surfing my way and wanna drop in.
