Still, I resolve to give it more chances. It's only been a few rehearsals, so the piece still has time to grow on me. At least we're not doing anything by Paul McCartney. posted by Trevor Murphy at 3:16 PM Silly. The classical things by McCartney that I've heard are quite better than "Il Sogno...

I was quoting myself.

Had you said those identical words previously in print somewhere? Otherwise, you don't really need the quotation marks.

"Yes. It was written in my diary."

"What a boring album".

Cobain listened to the Beatles since his childhood.

So they came before the Smithereens influence.

I think Elvis is quite right.

65/69.

Flowers In The Dirt version is wonderful.

Tonight I dreamt I was attending an Elvis gig.

He was singing "I am a woman in love".

What's so bad in the production?

Surely one of my favourite records by EC, althougn I've never liked "Just About Glad". 1. You Tripped At Every Step 2. Favourite Hour 3. All The Rage 4. Still Too Soon To Know 5. Clown Strike 6. 20% Amnesia 7. London's Brilliant Parade 8. Pony St 9. Sulky Girl 10. 13 Steps Lead Down 11. Ki...

I always thought that that song was horrible. I am not that glad that Costello covered it.

Keith Moon congratulated with McCartney for his drumming on the whole Band On The Run album. As ReadyToHearTheWorst wrote McCartney played drums on his homonymous debut album also (as well as all the other instruments) - where the final track is an almost totally percussive and rhytmic track (usuall...

"And don't forget Michael Jackson".

And then we get the now common plea to equate murder and murder: "Fifty-two people are killed in London and we know all about them in a matter of hours. Fifty-two, supposedly liberated, people die in Iraq, two days later, and it barely makes a footnote in the paper next to latest blockbuster m...

Inch By Inch always reminds me very much (maybe too much) of "16 Tons".

More than Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, Stevie Wonder, Paul McCartney, Backstreet Boys etc.?

It sounds strange to me.

Very smart.

"I was really trying to explain".

In the next sentence I will tell you about Costello's Goodbye Cruel World.

It's weak.

A weak album with a couple of good songs, really.

I think that All This Useless Beauty was about an experience he had in Italy.

I remember he even sang it like that in Rome, in front of an audience of half million people, during the yearly Labour Day gig.

He mentions that gig in the Extreme Honey liner notes, or one of those greatest hits.

This could easily be my favourite Costello's album. 01. Taking My Life In Your Hands 02. Who Do You Think You Are? 03. The Letter Home 04. The Birds Will Still Be Singing 05. Dear Sweet Filthy World 06. Expert Rites/Dead Letter 07. Deliver Us/For Other Eyes 08. I Almost Had A Weakness 09. This Sad B...

"I'll rank it soon, wait for me".

Yes, guys, I'm sure you like Boy With A Problem... "In fact we were talking about Little Savage" (which, as you can see, is 14th no more...). King Hoarse: don't worry, the last position communicates me some kind of (reverse) perfection. "It's the first position, if you count from the ...
