Costello can write and sing absolutely anything, which is why he's really the only person who could do this show. He could probably have a Norwegian black metal group on and fit right in with them. He probably shouldn't, but I bet he could.

This song is brilliant. Is there anyone else who could come up with a song like this. Maybe Bob Dylan but who else is there? Please tell me because I need to listen to them.

@thedug They're in the music snob stage at the moment. :D

@MouthingWords Good on ya kid. You friends will think you're crazy at first, a music snob next, and eventually they'll come to their senses and understand.

Every time I mention Elvis Costello to anyone my age they always look at me funny and ask me if I meant Presley and am I crazy and who the hell is Elvis Costello. Kids my age are listening to shit like Ke$ha and all I want is to hear some intelligence and wit in the music industry like Mr. Costello. There's honestly no one like him. I'm 17 so I guess it's childish to say "when I grow up I wanna be," but when I grow up I wanna be satirical and smart like him.
