Elvis Costello Fan Forum

hurts to pick but B&C has I Want You and that seals it for me.

I can't vote here - or show my face again as I've not heard El Mocambo...yet.

I can say that FTS was the first experience that I had with an EC disc that really just didn't do anything for me. And, I do like opera - she's just a bit shrill or something.

much stronger connection to ATUB here...I'm in the minority; I want to vanish!

...although the Frisell thing was interesting (DDB has got Mingus) I'm voting OOO too.

...wish I could've been in NYC these last three days (!!!)

I'm not sure about Beatitudes; I believe that it was Luke who was lactose-intolerant, wasn't it?

In Indiana there is an old law still on the books which makes it illegal carry an ice cream cone in one's back pocket...

You might be able to pick it up via the internet - a lot of NPR shows are available that way...

ooooooooooooooooooh another reason to loooooooooooove NPR!!!

but I am a little confused: there are people older than Marian?

First, I must admit that, much fun as I am having reading both of your posts, I am far too intimidated to chime in. I finally read Shrub this year (I had already gleefully voted against) but completely adored Ms. Ivins writing! Here's a semi-on-topic funny secret; I didn't like any of the boys in Jr...

If you don't eat your meat, how can you have any pudding?!?

No no no lads - youve got it all wrong - here let auntie Gilli fix it for you..... :roll: 1. Tottenham :lol: 2. Chelsea 3. Arsenal 4. Man united 5. Liverpool 6. Southampton 7. Newcastle 8.

after that post I'm gonna HAVE to add sulkygirl to the above list

W is evil. Did any of you notice that TWO WEEKS after he passed his stellar "No Child Left Behind Act" he started cutting the funding for it? This week he's turning around the headway Carter made by forcing oil companies to add pollution reducers to their buldings. (Oil, Bush - could there...

It has always been my contention that true moral laws are based solely on logic and forethought; religious precepts just muddy the waters. Of course, I should mention that my understanding of organized religion is that it is a political machine to keep the masses in line and build enough revenue to ...

Altough he claims only a mild favor for EC, I did catch him reading my copy of Sheppard's Kill Your Idols paperback a few days ago. So, there is hope. And, of course, he only pops into my bedroom now and again to say 'hello' to my kitten.

I so agree POV & Sweet Pear- after my re-reading my previous post it occurs to me that I sounded a little censor-happy...not my intent. I'm as big a fan of persons with opinions as I am of EC: quite huge. Further, without being too catty, I have to admit that during a heated game of Scrabble las...

Many beard years here on and off - one under the visual guise of a mohawk year (oh to be that young, semi-obnoxious and anti-social girl again). Most recently I had a beard year when I moved into the house I had lived in as a child; much different to live there sans the fam. "This is the place ...

Without question KoA is one of my favorite actual covers but I too flip the booklets around a bit so that my cds feature different visuals regularly. I'm also quite fond of TYM; I have an analog clock in my bedroom with TYM on the face (my boyfriend just loves that!) My favorite would have to be the...

:oops: Thank you! I'm not sure how I missed that; perhaps that was around the time I saw Shape and simply assumed that was the film of topic. At any rate, I'm De-Lighted that you took a moment to help me find bobsters informative post! I'm looking forward to seeing this one - historically questionab...

I know this film is in post-production -- see http://us.imdb.com/Details?0352277 -- I wonder if any of you have found/read anything more in depth about this. It seems that EC and Diana are both involved (at least at this point) in the project. Just De-Curious...

left hand red... right foot green...

So I've been out of town for a bit and just read the whole thread...can't help but add my opinion: Elvis has written a lot - some, like Girls Talk, are obviously autobiographically referential (to a certain model I gather a majority of you prefer to not read a reference to) other songs, like Chelsea...

49 wishes to Declan Patrick - in honor of the mold certainly being broken 49 years ago today! may there be 49 more years of amazing music!
