Elvis Costello Fan Forum

You could be right. I could be wrong. You were probably sober when you saw the footage. I was most definitely drunk when I posted the response.

By all accounts sober and smart beats drunk and stupid any day.

Interestingly, if my memory serves me, THIEN is a song on the record that is almost entirely Burt in it's composition and production. Still great.

BTW - does anyone know if my offer is tax deductible?

And for all the naysayers in the audience, please mark my offer down in the category of "Compassionate Conservatism".

Keep the ticket and flyer.

If you need the money that much I'll send you 10 bucks.

PM me your address and I promise the check's in the mail.

you seem like a bit of a britophile...you knew about Sean of the Dead, Ali G, The Streets. It's official. 5000 years of British culture is now available on Soulseek. Download it from the closited cosiness of your own room, while you still can. It's also available on SOAPNet. Just get cable, a box o...

That would probably cover Christmas too.

A time machine.

The master tapes to Kojak Variety.

A blow torch.

If it weren't for the GCW version, would we ever have had the chance to see Elvis with a mullet?

Cue the video.

And by mullet, I don't mean Daryll, though I dug his too.

BTW

I downloaded From A Basement On The Hill from Soulseek. If I can get my act together I will send it to you.

HB, P

I trust NYC is treating you well.

Well we all know that it sucks.

The pictures are pretty Rope, and if they help you find the truth, then good for you. But your version of the truth and mine come shaded differently. My version will omit things you hold as fact, and vice versa. Existence isn't a card game where somebody yells Gin and wins. It's a constant never end...

The "truth" swirls around you, me, and every thing indefinitely. It invades every pore. GWB says Bin Laden is evil. Garafaolo says GWB is evil. Everybody fighting to survive, and stake their claim. O'Reilly hates Moore. Moore hates Heston. Round and round we go. The twin towers are gone. I...

Also, as much as I hate to say it, Elliott Smith.

The world was cheated by his death. He is a FUCKER!

Even if he was murdered by his girlfrend, he should have been on guard.

He had a talent that comes round rarely. To have it cut short is a travesty. Shame on you, Mother Fucker.

I would also add Paul Westerberg to that list.

Soooo much lost potential there.

When all is said and done, I would probably have to put Paul Mccartney at the top of the list.

And that is a hard reality to face, but he has really let us all down for 30 years or so.

Here here. Why did Jack Ryan have to fold his cards after his matrimonial sexual exploits were exposed? Why was Ted Kennedy's hearing about his role in the death of the young woman at Chappaquittic (sp?) completely closed? The list goes on and on across the US and the world. Power, the desire for it...

I just listened to the first few tracks of this record.

I have an honest question. The third song on the record Beating Heart, sounds alot like Ted Leo, is there any relation? This is a great record so far.

This film is getting great word of mouth.

I heard every song is about Margaret Thatcher's mom.

I'm ... Ron Burgundy?...

Is that a song? Or a way of life?

I don't like it, never have. It plods along and seems way too formulaic. Is that a werd? Anyway, I've never been that crazy about ATUB as a whole. I love all of the, for lack of a better wurd, ballads. But none of the uptempo numbers, ie, You Bowed Down, etc. strike me as inspired. The Other End of ...

Other End of the Telescope
The World and His Wife
Tart
Pony Street
Black and White World
Big Tears
Brown To Blue
Still (maybe it was)
Pills and Soap

Geez, I give up. They could all be singles, but realistically they'd all sink like a stone.

As a devout and unabashed atheist, "turn the other cheek" is just another Biblical fairy tale to me. But as for your follow up that "there is no money in that", I would tend to disagree. Money is the touchable, material representation of Sex and Power. And the desire for Sex and ...
