Elvis Costello Fan Forum

a friend of mine told me the other day the lead singer of Costello sound-alikes The Jags is now living as a woman.

I think John might be right on Facebook yesterday. Elvis wont commit to anything after his mother's health scare last year. She must be well into her 90's now

I played Spike for the first time in years last week to coincide with the 30 year anniversary. I think it is a great album. I could probably live without chewing gum, Stalin Malone and pads paws and claws. As a couple have said it does suffer a little bit with the having to have filler on there to f...

He does send me quite a few 'football' related messages. the table is booked for 2pm. She said she would try and get us a table with a view of the TV in case we were interested in watching the rugby. I must admit I forgot it was on. I said we would probably be to engrossed in our sparkling conversat...

Next one we have I will invite him as soon as we set up a date

Its like picking your favourite child todays list is Get Happy Imperial Bedroom This Years Model (just because it was the first one I bought) Look Now King Of America But to be honest the only one I cant find much merit in is Secret Profane and Sugarcane. I have been listening to Trust this week and...

I have thought a couple of times of inviting him before. I thought it might be a bit of a strange thing to invite him to. Any idea where he lives?

I will call them early next week to arrange a table

I don't want to go to Chelsea was played on Through The Keyhole on Saturday night. the guest was from Made in Chelsea.

I saw that Goon Squad, probably James has been hanging out with VG too much

I have a family event on the same day with Mrs Sheep's family. I will make an appearance though for a few hours as I missed the last one.

I notice Shane marries his partner of 32 years the other day. I hope this doesn't mean bad news

There is a school of thought that sometimes if you ask Elvis to sing a song at a gig you are going to he will perform it. I asked for Shot with his own gun before one of the palladium shows and he performed it. Myself and VG looked at each other from across the hall in 'wow maybe he does read it' An...

Down to number 88 in the U.K. chart

'Why wont heaven help me' reminds me a bit of 'do you know the way to San Jose?'

Album debuts at no 14 on the UK charts. Probably the best we can expect these days.[/quote] Shame as it was number 7 in the midweek chart. Must be the highest an Elvis Album as entered the chart for a while. Imagine if it had actually got any airplay on Radio 2. No coinciedence their album of the we...

Really that's made my day

When he hits the falsetto on Suspect my tears I get all goosebumpy. I think I have just made a word up.
I have been waiting with baited breath for Neil.'s review and he didn't disappoint. And I agree with him on the whole. the david bowie boxset has sort of got in the way of me listening to LOOK NOW.

Totally agree John

...Roll on a Look Now UK tour! Was there any mention, hint, or even a wink from EC about the possibility of this? Colin Top Balcony with fingers firmly crossed Not that I recall. Trust me, if he had said that I would be on here jumping up and down with excitement! It's just a wish. Or maybe.... A H...

His last interview with Becky Want was quite good she is a bit of a fan. Also I have found out today she follows me on twitter

Watching 'come dine with me' last night one of the woman has a copy of Get Happy on the wall of her home.

Looks like radio 2 has missed out on making Elvis album of the week again. That honour goes to Jess Glynne.


I personally love the album I think its his best record in years

Might i ask here ARE THERE 2 DIFFERENT VINYL VERSIONS? I happily have a $19.19 one scheduled to arrive the 17th. But, i now see one for $23 at amazon which alleges the four bonus cuts. AM I AWAITING THE STANDARD 12 TRACK VERSION AND MUST NOW PURCHASE AGAIN FOR THE BONUS SONGS??? thanks, ba there is...

Lets hope its nothing serious Elvis was looking really well the other week at Mastertapes recording and the other TV appearances here on the UK
