Costello Music

I used to be a big Elvis Costello fan. Not so much any more.

I just listened to his duet on the new Jenny Lewis album. The album ain't half bad but this track is abysmal largely due to his over-bearing vocals. I wish he'd hold back a little. All this classical training seems to have ruined the boy.

There was a time I'd have listened to Elvis singing the Yellow Pages. Nowadays, he'd be luckly get beyond Alcoholics Anonymous before getting the hook.
