Well, Elvis Costello's written his first smart song since the first album; it had to happen. If only the man would quit thinking he's caustic soda and admit he's soda pop he might be alright | Well, Elvis Costello's written his first smart song since the first album; it had to happen. If only the man would quit thinking he's caustic soda and admit he's soda pop he might be alright — like here, complaining he can't crack the XY chromosome and getting in a lather about it. It's a shame that Dave Edmunds is such a coat-hanger — no, it's not the same as being a clothes-horse — that this most likely won't chart. If Costello cut it it would, him being one of the new fixtures of the old routine, and if Chrissie Hynde sang it — well every record in the Top 50 would just melt itself down in a fit of mortified pique. | ||
Still, it's Dave Edmunds! Singing an Elvis Costello song! With Nick Lowe on bass! Rumour has it that everyone who buys a copy of this single receives a free pat on the back and an assurance that he's in with the in crowd. | Still, it's Dave Edmunds! Singing an Elvis Costello song!
