Wow, what a wide spread of ratings.  I guess that EC grows on you ... one way or the other.  For some a carbuncle on your coccyx or  a patch of hair on your earlobe.

Anyway, there IS poetry here but I think I would have rather heard the Chieftains do it.

Elvis Costello and T Bone Burnette; sounds like a great combination. Maybe if they had taken more than 3 days to record the album, it's status would have been elevated to splendid rather than simply good, IMHO.

Nope, it's from his latest album!

it's melodic, but I get what you mean, not the best song on the album though. I like Complicated Shadows better.  little heavy on the t-Bone for me, but they are a good couple.

The structure of this song bugs me.  It always seems like it's about to end and them he picks it up again.

Good song. But something this heavy can't be listened to every day without losing its impact.

Funny, my first thought was that this was T.Bone, had to check, by the time I saw who it was, the voice was clearer. But yea, first thought, T.Bone???

Not bad, but Elvis did this rootsy sound better on "King of America" IMHO.
