Happy Happy Birthday to you, Blue Chair!!

To tell the truth I thought you were about 45

Why Get Happy? I just can't understand what everybody finds in it! I've heard a lot about this album but when I listened to it I was disappointed... that's very interesting.... Which next....of course, When I Was Cruel!:) Brutal Youth and Spike are also a good choice. edit: I think if you like This ...

Fishfinger King
ha! it really was just the best way to Costello:)

and I also think that Costello should practice more silliness in his songs... when he does it he sounds special... really great

Wow, what a wonderful song She's Pulling Out The Pin is! I didn't expect that... And The Monkey is....lovely:))) here's my updated list: 1. The Delivery Man 2. Bedlam 3. The Name Of This Thing Is Not Love 4. She's Pulling Out The Pin 5. Button My Lip 6. Needle Time 7. Either Side Of The Same Town 8....

I like both Brutal Youth and Mighty Like A Rose. To me the sound of BY seems to have something incommon with that of WIWC... Sulky Girl is a good example... besides, BY is also a bunch of excellent songs. But MLAR is the second EC album(after WIWC) which has a clear and distinct mood and, again, mag...

Nice pic, bamboo...very cool!:)

I like almost every line in Episode Of Blonde, and how the chorus flows into the verse, the way he sings "...of blonde" when the verse has already begun. I adore all I Want You, 45, Alibi, Tart and 20% Amnesia. The verse and chorus of Hurry Down Doomsday that follow the solo. The line &quo...

or Smile and Dissolve

"Believe it or not, I've just noticed this thread"....one more Happy Birthday, bobster!!!

Seems hard to believe

Happy Birthday bobster!!!

Frankly speaking, bamboo, I was shy to ask if you were being serious of making fool out of me answering to my Ein Panzer Commander question....

thank you! and I have a very fresh idea of making a Russian EC site(there are no Russian EC sites at all!), but I don't know yet. My original plan was to make a small site about When I Was Cruel(like http://www.astheygo.com/wheniwascruel.html which was a very pleasant surprise to me), but then I tho...

Grand Illusion - Joan Osborne

Monkey Girl You haven't heard Oh Well - does that mean that you have't heard When I Was Cruel No.1 either? To me Oh Well has something in common with Soul For Hire and Radio Silence, while When I Was Cruel No.1 - with Alibi. Lucky you are, how I wish I had a couple of When I Was Cruel songs I haven'...

what an excellent site!!

Nobody answers. I guess this means it's paper and chalk.

thanks! I appreciate it.

Your language is good enough to go Russia! Some more swear words and nobody will tell you from a native Russian

Just for fun. Everyone knows about programmes for computer translating. I've got one on my computer and I usually use it for having fun. I nearly die laughing when I read how it translated another song or article. Costello lyrics are no exception...now I decided to translate some songs from English ...

noiseradio Not popular at all(though I know several people who like him). Sometimes when I go to a music shop and ask if they have him the seller asks me to repeat his name or just sais "who's that?". But somehow I managed to get When I Was Cruel, North, The Delivery Man, For The Stars and...

thanks!
having some Costello related stuff in your drawer makes him closer to you
