I have seen Elvis 22 times🥰 am I really that old..scary. every show has been amazing. I was a little mod girl on a vespa my first show and the last was with my teenage daughter. Hopefully 2021 he can tour again

I've seen Elvis 5 times. He became popular my first year in college. There is no talent like him. 30 years later he still owns music.
@crissyheimlich92163 жыл бұрын
I was just standing here watching this thing to myself man I wish I was in that audience. Yeah lucky you 5 times that's awesome. I'd love to see him once he's he's been my favorite for 30 years I can sing all his songs word-for- word
@suburbanindie11 ай бұрын
I've seen him 3 times myself. His approach to every song changes from time to time so it makes it interesting and engaging... you're not just listening to a "Best Of" that sounds like the record.

I love to look up older performances of what are now considered to be classic songs. It's cool to think about how much a song can resonate; how it can have just as strong an impact today as it did years ago. "Alison" is a beautiful example. It's poignant and means so much to so many different people who span across multiple generations today, and it will continue to do the same down the road. It's timeless. :)

This is his best performance of this beautifull song, the lick he's singing (improvising!) is one of the best ever. The pianist is great!

This is my favorite Elvis Costello song. I stumbled onto this the other day and was immediately blown away. Almost 50 years old and the audio quality is amazing. This is easily one of the best live videos I’ve heard on KZbin. Elvis Costello and his band just killing it. This video is a treasure. I’ll be playing it forever for sure.

Fantasstic rendition, thanks for posting. I've seen him 20+ times, Alison has been different each time, just working around a bit with the melody, doing just him and Steve Nieve, fully acoustic, so many versions. He plays it at every show, of course, I cry every time.

I'm an Allison and have loved this song since I was 18. My boyfriend introduced it to me. I broke up with him after 2 years (I don't really know why because he was lovely). He sent me many letters ( there wasn't mobile phones or social media ), and a tape with Alison on it-he said the words applied to me and I'd broken his heart. He sent me Against all odds and said the words were how he felt. I know that I was a terrible flirt and did things I'm not proud of... Also I did let one of his friends take off my party dress (and more). I wish we could meet up again but don't know how to track him down. My husband died of cancer 2 years ago and I miss him more every day. I'd love to see Colin again, even if it's just to be friends. I've gone off the subject a bit!!

To: Allie Nightingale, Just rediscoverd the greatness of Elvis Costello. I'm a an Elvis Presley fan and saw Elvis C play Elvis P guitar on the Johnathan Ross show. He plays Allison on it (KZbin). Very emotional moment. I wondered if this great song meant anything to any Allisons and yes it has, yours is a very emoitional story. Hope you get what you want.
@JackTadoussac4 жыл бұрын
I have had the same experience with at least one of two other songs. On imagines that each of them was written for you or me directly. In a way they have been, but that is what the art of the song is about. In the case of Allison it is a vulnerable song. It cuts down love to the essential bits, the party dress, the pram. There is a powerful force behind this song, the other force is freedom and spontaneity, to be free from an attachment to a song. You can't go back. Live every day like it is new.

Managed to catch Elvis Costello and "The Rude Five" (I think that's the nane of his backing band that night. It was a running joke for myself and my buddie who went that night. One- because there was like 10 people on stage, maybe more? But certainly not five!! And they were perfect gentlemen that entire evening. Not one hint of bad behavior. My friend, Steve and I, were doing a lot of cocaine at that time, late 80s. So we agreed that we wouldn't do any until after the show, in deliberate effort to remembered and thus, enjoy the show. Guess what? One day the best shows I've ever seen. Just on fire.
