Elvis Costello Fan Forum

it is still saying Week of Nov. 13, it has been for several days, so i expect that the billboard issue won't be clear until they post the NEXT chart????

Yes and thanks, didn't know that about flirting kind! elvis' talk about standing in a circle with the new c.d. and facing each other when they recorded reminded me most of sinatra at his peak (even the fedora) standing amidst the orchestra and recording basically live. does anyone know how North (th...

i'd like to see a live performance of North, with the song of the same name, impatience, and young hung the moon as encores. especially since hearing you hung the moon on the new c.d. i think he could better interpret those North songs now. I LOVE north, but it always seemed as if he hadn't quite li...

now if it was the 78s coming by canoe, that might make more sense, sort of....we need to establish a small prize or recognition for the person who waits the longest.

real question is, will it come before something else is released?!

nope. nothing yet. canadian release date is tomorrow, but the one from the e.c. site ain't here either.

still no billboard placement in top 200 for week ending November 13. oh oh. this can't be right

from the other thread: i've over simplified here, but this works a bit, kinda, sorta...

he also looks so YOUNG during stations

blocked in canada

very insignificant, actually. can anyone tell me what the paperclip means on some threads. when i put my cursor on it, it says "attachment" but does that mean there is an attachment to the thread somewhere? and if so. . . ?? sorry, still new here

I'm just imagining, from all these wonderful performances, a DVD release might be upcoming (like the RIR or memphis one), full of takes on all those other songs from his back catalog, everdayiwritethebook etc. anyone else bespeculated? would be a shame to miss out documented in great detail this won...

don't get emotional, toothpaste! actually, do. it really is a mess, isn't it, all in the name of freedom and choice but actually violating both. there used to be a lovely gathering on release dates, treks where you had to go somewhere to get the new release and knew the people working in the local s...

p.s. that makes spike almost double the length of revolver. i remember when mc.cartney started doing solo stuff, the real issue for me at the time was that sometimes his songs were pretty good even though the quality certainly did dip, but they were 4 minutes long or 5, so i'd get through two verses...

spike was certainly a single. never bought letters in vinyl

last one. sorry. tried moving the chords over the right words and then ended up sliding to the left all over again. so the chords above the line are the right oversimplified ones, but where they are placed is screwed up...

sorry about this, when i cut and pasted, the text moved the chords over incorrectly. i'll try starting this again and repost

last line should be

Dm Gm Dm

time-wise, the beatles white double was around 92 minutes. and the single sgt. peppers was 34. remember when get happy!!came out and the word was that they were putting too much info. per side of the l.p.? used to be 15, 16 minutes max., and i think g.h. was 20ish n.r. is what, 63 minutes total? whi...

momofukufueku was double vinyl

latest chart is name "for the week of nov. 8" , so yep, next tuesday perhaps??

agree, too, cwr. i almost always find the live recordings so muddy sounding and echo-y that i can really get a clear sense of the shape of the songs much of the time. church underground jimmie you hung the moon voice in the dark josephine all these strangers one bell ringing bullets stations dr. wat...

um,um,um,um, i love the fact that this is so hard to do. ok, right now, church underground since i heard the trumpet notes at the end. the rhythm right after the title phrase feels like a cross between blonde on blonde and once the trumpet enters playing that repeated single note, it's like all you ...

that he was able to do this signals something again for me about the spot he seems to be in musically and lyrically. this new material and new recordings of old material are really something extraordinary even for himself, i think. he's hit a deep well in himself, in this own history, and in multipl...
