Diana talking about Elvis

Post by John »

Not sure if this has already been posted elsewhere but she mentions her beloved a lot in this recent BBC interview. She made me laugh when she said "sorry for interrupting you", Andrew Marr never apologises.

Thanks for posting this. She later played nice version of "Ipanema" live with jazz trio.

Maybe the Children's album's on the back burner, it's not the first time it's been mooted!

She was also on the BBC breakfast show, the next day (Monday). No performance, and looking a little rough at that ungodly hour.

BBC's (Bill Turnbull ?) asked her what she called her husband, who he referred to being "almost like a member of The Royal Family" (?)

" Elvis ? ", he asked, to which she replied
..."I call him darling..."

This is from a buyer's review on Amazon UK:

"Personally I find this album very pleasant. Only thing is that no matter how sexily Diana poses on the cover it doesn't work because the listener knows she is married to that yowling, bearded porker Elvis Costello. Takes away the sexiness a bit. But still ..worth buying if you ask me. "

A bit harsh I'd say.

I'll say! I've added a riposte to his nasty little comment on Amazon UK.

For those interested - Diana's mid-May Vancouver concert (with an intro by Elvis, I might add) is streaming via CBC's Concerts on Demand:
