Elvis Costello and Joe Jackson… two important voices from the late 1970’s, early 1980’s… you can’t go wrong

[@nathalieplum2137]

A a couple years later: Matt Johnson's The The, which I was a huge fan of. This Is The Day, Uncertain Smile ... Soul Mining was such a great album. And I was also a big Joe and Elvis fan as well.

[@ed.z.]

You can also add Graham Parker.

[@waynecanning4122]

You wanna hear some killer bass? Do Watching The Detectives by Elvis Costello next. Its a great song. One of my all time favorites by ANY artist.

[@normanrose2711]

you are right ! I think he has another big bass song called I Don't Want to go to Chelsea that is really cool !

[@jeffrogers2180]

Anything from high fidelity..5ive gears in reverse for example.. Amazing bass

[@gregclarke2183]

Yes! Watching the Detectives is one of ECs most ska songs! Listen to ska!!! The Slackers are NYC ska legends…and one of their best songs imo is International War Criminal.

[@georgedominguez255]

The Angels Wanna Wear My Red Shoes is another awesome jam! Great vibe!

[@user-gt2uf8cq9y]

Costello's "Pump It Up" is the ultimate bass song.

[@erickent3557]

Veronica is a wonderful Costello track with Sir McCartney thumping on bass. Elvis's "Angels Wan to Wear My Red Shoes" is just as catchy as "Every Day I Write the Book"...

[@SpuzzyLargo]

Elvis's fellow Liverpudlian😊

[@gigi-ij1hk]

McCartney also co-wrote the song

[@Bekka_Noyb]

ooh I 2nd Veronica!

[@juliewhite7469]

Red Shoes Shoes👠👠👠

[@dmac8949]

@@gigi-ij1hk Really???Are you sur???Because 'if' McCartney cowrote this he wrote it with Nick Lowe. This is an old Nick Lowe song. One just might want to check out Nick Lowe, not just a great songwriter, singer but producer, I think it was Nick Lowe who produced this. My suggestion for checking out Nick Lowe is my favourite 'So It Goes' and the entire "Pure 'Pop For Now People" album. And then check out Rockpile with Dave Edmonds, another great British singer songwriter.

[@seanellio]

Written and produced by Nick Lowe. I would love it if you reacted to "Cruel to be Kind"

[@surlechapeau]

they reacted to Cruel To Be Kind oct 22 2022

[@markallen2984]

Or "Girls Talk" a song written by Elvis Costello & performed by Dave Edmunds (Nick Lowe's partner in Rockpile) *Linda Ronstadt also did a cover of Girls Talk*

[@richardkint6531]

Yes, Elvis Costello with the Attractions was at least 10 years ahead of his time. Lots to check out on him. "Watching The Detectives", "Radio, Radio" and "Accidents Will Happen" to name just a few. 😎

[@TrumbullComic]

This song was written by the great Nick Lowe, producer of many of EC's early albums and a great musician in his own right! You should check out Nick Lowe's song "Cruel to be Kind" and EC's "Radio Radio."

[@davidteller7681]

Yes, yes Cruel to be Kind!!

[@Jessica_Roth]

They've done Cruel to be Kind

[@glencurtis2761]

Yep, technically it was Nick Lowe who was ahead of his time.

[@davidteller7681]

​@@Jessica_Rothyou're right...how'd I miss it?!? Thanks! 😁👍

[@dankofanz]

'I love the sound of breaking glass'

[@matthewhawkins517]

My favorite song of all time!!!! Thank you, thank you thank you!!! Song was actually written by his good friend Nick Lowe who he often toured with. When this song came up he would say "This is a song Nick wrote and I stole."

[@carlcaulkett3050]

Yeah! I first heard the Brinsley Schwartz version of this song (written by Nick Lowe as you say) in about 1977 when I bought the Brinsleys' post-break-up compilation "Fifteen Thoughts of Brinsley Schwartz". Amazingly. it wasn't until about 4 minutes ago that I had ever heard this version. I still reckon the Brinsleys' version is the better one kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpfckJWFmq96rpo 😍

[@ws3764]

This dude came out in the 70s. There was nothing like him. And most of us gravitated immediately to his sound. So new and fresh.

[@eclectrickery8077]

Elvis Costello was first known as The Godfather of Punk, having that new gritty sound when folk, progressive rock and disco were in their dying days. But every time we thought we had him pegged, he would come up with something completely different, creative and uniquely him. He cannot be pigeonholed.

[@jamesstewart8846]

Prog Rock will never die! {But there is no need for clifftop wizards or skating dragons}.

[@eclectrickery8077]

@@jamesstewart8846 I hear you! But you may recall how tribal everyone was about music in those days. In Britain, I remember we were very fickle. Things were old-fashioned overnight. Thankfully all the good stuff is back and we can enjoy it! Gotta love the reactors!

[@CANDOKNOWHOW]

I always thought of him as the Bob Dylan of Gen X.

[@vickiroman189]

I love this Elvis. "Every Day I Write the Book" is always my favorite.

[@MikeEnglund-ih1zh]

This man has hundreds of fantastic songs. The band is very talented as well. The song was written by Nick Lowe.

[@bergiefbaby]

Shout out to Nick Lowe! Guy is an amazing songwriter. This song is amazing because of the lyricism.

[@ToniMcGinty]

I saw Elvis a few years ago in quite a small theatre. My friends and I were basically front row. He ended up singing "Alison" whilst lying over the three of us. Unique experience...

[@lela7252]

I saw him this year, I was soooo mesmerized by him.

[@surlechapeau]

Jay & Amber, you'll love his "Watching The Detectives", "I Don't Want To Go To Chelsea" and "Everyday I Write The Book" !!!!

[@markmaioli4]

Elvis is King! One of the greatest songwriters of our time: Watching The Detectives, Lipstick Vogue, Accidents Wilm Happen, Party Girl, Riot Act, Watch Your Step, From a Whisper to a Scream, Beyond Belief, Man Out of Time, Town Cryer, Every Day I Write The Book, Shipbuilding 🤘🤘

[@michaelisles4756]

OLIVERS ARMY should be your next Elvis Costello ❤❤

[@glennred4830]

He has been married to Canadian jazz pianist and singer Diana Krall since 2003 And this video is shows it with scenes shot around her home region, near Vancouver British Columbia. You should do more of her great jazz on Fridays.

[@kovie9162]

So I was right, this was shot in and around Stanley Park, which is in Vancouver. I spent some time in Vancouver on a job over 20 years ago and have a good memory for places, just a second or two and I can tell where it is.

[@bingbong7316]

Diana Krall's first album is still one of my top ten first albums. Terrific.

[@reneenelson1620]

I've always felt his music-- called "alternative " at the time-- as a cross between punk and rockabilly. He's very unique.

[@brucedillinger9448]

Elvis Costello was/is highly regarded. Do more of his stuff! ✌

[@kadiummusic]

Costello's hit single Oliver's Army ... Superb! 😎

[@tedcole9936]

Yes, in the mid-to-late 70s Elvis blew my socks off! He IS amazing!

[@rrailguitar2211]

This was the closing number when I saw Elvis Costello several years ago. Unbelievable high energy. You might be interested in "Veronica" his collaboration with Paul McCartney.

[@octoberguy]

For yet another Elvis sound, listen to "Everyday I Write the Book".... and Yes to "Watching the Detectives" for a killer bass line!

[@djd2819]

I saw Elvis play in 1978 at a venue that was a gym at a local college. No chairs. We sat on the floor but we really didn't - we were on our feet the whole time. I had every one of his albums back in the day. Simple songs delivered in a catchy way and often with thoughtful messages. Love him. Thanks for the reaction vid!

[@immoralreplicant1332]

I got stood up on a date in 1979. I was pissed off. Instead of going home I went to see Elvis Costello instead. Back in civilised times when you could actually go see a major artist & pay on the door. Cheered me up pretty much completely.

[@bobroberts4934]

I highly recommend the collab Elvis Costello did with the Roots. They recorded an entire album together. The rendition of 'I Want You' on that album is amazing.

[@cliffordwaterton3543]

'Shipbuilding' - one of the most beautiful and poignant songs ever written.

[@jkbezo1]

They were post-punk new wave. Alternative rock back in its days. That's why bands like this sounded ahead of their time. Influenced many future '90s and '00s bands. Alt rock.

[@Austin__75]

So many great songs and such a prolific songwriter - "Watching the Detectives", "Beyond Belief", "Accidents Will Happen" to name a few. You cannot go wrong.

[@m.gideonhoyle409]

You want rocking Elvis, try Radio, Radio.

[@SteveInTheOC]

Exactly Elvis, what’s so funny bout peace, love and understanding? 👍

[@emcsquared8681]

Veronica is another amazing song by Elvis, he wrote for his grandmother that was suffering from Alzheimer’s

[@deggsymarley]

They be tearing up to this song , but so worth a listen

[@bryanforis1839]

Very good music great live music almost prefect record

[@rrandall361]

So glad you reacted to another Elvis Costello song. This was a great one. One of my favorite albums of all time is “This Year’s Model,” which, if you like his rockin’ music, had Pump It Up that you liked so much, as well as This Year’s Girl; Radio, Radio; and Lip Service, among others. The album shows a lot of Elvis’ anger and cynicism, and the Attractions were a first rate, rockin’ band!

[@pauljoncas3011]

Peace,love and understanding - the only thing that is going to save us ☮️

[@MP-od1zz]

Very true!

[@MrTimothybee]

“Watching the detectives” is the one to listen to next.

[@MuckJagger]

Another good one of Elvis's you should consider is "Radio, Radio." That song is kind of infamous; the story as I understand it is that he played it on Saturday Night Live against Lorne Michaels's wishes and it got him banned from Saturday Night Live for about a dozen years.

[@joemiller7082]

He comes out and does it over with the Beastie Boys and it’s my favorite SNL performance since of all time.

[@mkmstillstackin]

I love that tune! I didn't know the SNL ban story, thanks for sharing, and what more appropriate lyrics for such an incident. Cheers

[@kovie9162]

Why on earth would he be banned for playing that? Is Lorne Michaels that much of a right wing snowflake ass? It's was barely, just barely subversive.

[@danielmankowski922]

2 words .......TRUST ELVIS 😎

[@jaewok5G]

there's a biography of him here on youtube that's really good … he's had a remarkable career … and his guest role on "30 Rock" as _international jewel thief, Declan MacManus_ was precious.

[@mtpugh]

For female Friday, you should check out Elvis Costello’s wife, Diana Krall, a wonderful Canadian jazz singer. In 2009, Billboard magazine named her the second best jazz artist of the decade.

[@cbiancardi9233]

You are playing in my absolute favorite Elvis Costello song in the world. There is something about that beat and his deep voice, it is perfection

[@cojaysea]

He’s got so many fabulous songs . Oliver’s army is probably my favorite but it’s hard to pick really . The late 70,s had so many killer albums . Graham Parker and the Rumour come to mind another great band .

[@rogerhuggettjr.7675]

It's funny you bring up graham Parker. For years I thought his song, "Temporary Beauty" was an Elvis Costello song.

[@cojaysea]

@@rogerhuggettjr.7675 squeezing out sparks is an all time favorite Parker album

[@rrandall361]

I never mistook Graham Parker for Elvis, but agree that Squeezing Out Sparks was a fantastic album (though probably underappreciated now); I used to play it loud from my front porch, to some neighbors' chagrin, but also got kudos from passersby. LOL@@cojaysea

[@cojaysea]

@@rrandall361 he re did that album a year ago all acoustic did you know that ?

[@rrandall361]

Did not know that, will have to look for it; thanks!@@cojaysea

[@ndlouder]

A truly great rock song. Written by Nick Lowe by the way, one of the few masterpieces that is not a Costello original, even though this is the definitive version of the song. 'Acccidents Will Happen ' next would be great.

[@ingridhowell7149]

Veronica, Every day I write the book, brilliant mistake, watching the detectives I could go on and on.

[@lisag1510]

Some things never change. We still need peace, love and understanding.

[@davidireland4433]

Elvis Costello's cover of A Good Year For The Roses is beautifully heartbreaking. You should give it a listen.

[@Bekka_Noyb]

I suggest these 2 Elvis Costello songs: Veronica & Watching The Detectives

[@williamthelast1]

Saw them 10 times in Paris France. The most talented band of the eighties and by far.... EC is so gifted !! Bloody irish singer from eternity !!! Awesome songs !!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 0:03

[@raymondohlsen5054]

Elvis Costello was way ahead of his time..

[@wpollock1]

Elvis rules! He has a killer bass player and piano/organist.

[@romin5035]

I was lucky to see Nick Lowe and Elvis perform this song together live at three different shows over the last 40 years, most recently this past July. Fantastic song and two great artists.

[@MaD-gs9qx]

"Watching The Detectives" is a classic. Jay will love the bass! Thank you!

[@captjeter2]

this is his best song in my book !!!! great lyrics

[@shelbysnyder8109]

When punk/new wave came out, there was a kind of 'feud' with ' hippies'. Thus this song.

[@seanledig1431]

I love the way that he sounds like he's going to punch your lights out if you don't have the answer to his question.

[@lacm64]

I love you both. You’re reviewing my childhood, well. Two beautiful souls, exploring humanity.

[@elizabethfranco1284]

Veronica! and his duet with Tony Bennet They Can’t Take That Away from Me

[@epyisc182]

❤ Elvis Costello..

[@bradsullivan2495]

"Radio, Radio" was an attack on that medium that he was told not to sing during his first appearance on Saturday Night Live. He started off singing another sung before abruptly switching to that song. That resulted in him getting banned from the show.

[@matthewhawkins517]

The other song was Less Than Zero, which was the lead song on his new album.

[@TheSlumsofMediocrity]

You need to now listen to Elvis Costello's "Veronica." A late eighties hit and one of the handful of GREAT songs he co-wrote with PAUL MCCARTNEY.

[@markzalubas5793]

Being a nerd myself, what's great about Elvis Costello and the 80's sound is that it showed the world that nerds have talent too. We might making music, doing math, engineering (me), or pretty much anything else, but don't underestimate us. I have a lot of Elvis records. He spoke to me and still does. I'm so glad you found him and get him. There's hope for me yet.

[@brianmccullough5764]

Here's a treat for you. Elvis Costello wrote a song called The Comedians for Roy Orbison! Check it out on Roy's Black and White Night with Elvis playing behind him.

[@willfromyadkinville]

love love love him! he was a dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "every day i write the book" is a must listen!

[@jimmeltonbradley1497]

I had the pleasure of sharing the bill with Elvis a couple of times and the Attractions i London back in 1978. We even shared the same record label for a short time. This song was not only written by Nick Lowe, but the record was produced by Nick Lowe too. The Attractions were such a talented band and nice chaps with it.

[@jeffrogers2180]

They were babies... Elvis is 69 now, and still releasing critically acclaimed music.

[@cliffwheeler7357]

I’m amazed how young he looks in this video. He played my home town in England in 1977! Now I feel really old. Knowing Amber enjoys country music, Elvis Costello released a country album in 1981 called “Almost Blue” featuring covers of hits by Hank Williams and George Jones and others. He recorded the album in Nashville, and it had very positive reviews. The George Jones song “A Good Year for the Roses” taken from the album was a big hit here in the UK.

[@jonnno243]

Superb, as always. and Red Shoes is a favourite of mine

[@epongeverte]

I love the message of this song so much that I have requested it be played at my funeral.

[@juliewhite7469]

"Angels Want to Wear My Red Shoes", "Mystery Dance " ❤😊

[@kpowers]

Love this song

[@Festus171]

His later career crooner stuff is absolutely excellent. Check out anything he did with Burt Bacharach.

[@lawrencekelli]

It's almost gospel the lyrics..Have loved Elvis from when I first heard him at 8yrs old..53 now and got to see him on my 17th Bday.

[@marcnovellino2028]

Very underrated very talented

[@kelliekretzmer4998]

I wanted to name my daughter Allison , after Elvis Costello song.

[@skaye19]

Watching the Detectives is a must from Elvis Costello

[@cynthiaschultheis1660]

HE MADE A GUEST APPEAREANCE ON "FRIENDS"!!! PERFORMED ON SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE FEW TIMES👍👍👍👍❤❤❤❤

[@Jimi-DV]

The writer of this song, Nick Lowe, is also well worth checking out. Good tunes include: "I Love the Sound of Breaking Glass", "Little Hitler", "Cruel to Be Kind", "Somebody Cares for Me", "House for Sale" and Nick's first Band (named after Guitarist Brinsley Schwarz) playing "Surrender to the Rhythm".

[@jamesdamiano8894]

Oliver’s Army, Watching The Detectives, Accidents Will Happen. And some more mellow Elvis, Every Day I Write The Book and Good Year For The Roses.

[@dmac8949]

I could sit here for hours, days trying to list all the great songs and albums EC ever did.

[@petercourtien4581]

Great tune!❤

[@richardmcfarland2]

So happy I found you two. As a 69 year old, a lot of what you react to has long been my favorite music. I really appreciate Rob's love of rhythm and his willingness to give anything a shot. Amber is a delight! She often zeros right in on what makes a track cool or important, and I, too, love music that takes me for a ride emotionally and mentally. Great work! Now, a suggestion: I know you've done a lot of The Who, but a would love if you would take a listen to "The Rock" from Quadrophenia. It's an instrumental but I think it's one of the most beautiful rock tracks ever recorded. Sit back and let it take you. Love and appreciate you!

[@DerekDominoes]

So many great Elvis Costello songs. Would love for you to check out "New Lace Sleeves" and "Big Sisters Clothes" and ANYTHING from his "Imperial Bedroom" album.

[@wrldchamps04]

He's just really good...i saw him open for The Police in 2008...

[@FloraWest]

Wow!

[@robcarl2]

I'm so happy to hear your love for Elvis! You guys are great! Please check out Veronica, which was co-written with Sir Paul McCartney at just the time Paul needed someone on his level as a song-writing partner, the only other to John Lennon.

[@paulmorris8762]

this song was written by Nick Lowe formerly of Dave Edmunds' Rockpile

[@324cmac]

One of the greatest songs of all time. I hope you're listening to the lyrics.

[@garyfinley9457]

That was very early Elvis He gets much better. 👍👍👍

[@LaserRanger15]

[@BlackLizrd]

This Year's Model, Radio Radio, Big Tears, Tiny Steps, Oliver's Army

[@markcornish2519]

Great shirts guys!! Elvis Costello is great. Check out "I don't want to go to Chelsea"

[@lynnejamieson2063]

I’d like to suggest Squeeze performing Take Me I’m Yours. As someone who was born in the mid 70’s in Scotland and so a teenager in the late 80’s to mid 90’s, I can confirm that Elvis Costello was an important influence to those who loved, played and made music even then…and I am referring to his entire back catalogue. I can’t remember if you’ve done it already but if not, Elvis Costello and the Attractions performing Oliver’s Army would certainly be worth reacting to.

[@marygoodson4920]

Elvis is the Man! He was huge in the kate 70's/early 80's. Saw him live in '82, he and his band were great!❤!❤!❤!

[@williamfragaszy6016]

This song is timeless because the question is easily answered but the correct answer is never given - nothing!

[@agoodday4pi]

I think you guys would like Pump It Up, Everyday I Write The Book, Alison, or The Only Flame In Town. He has a huge library of great songs!!!

[@SupernalOne]

One of my favorite singalong songs -

[@sharonramone9178]

Alison is my favorite by Elvis.

[@dudieb]

My all time favorite song by Elvis Costello is “She” from the movie Notting Hill. A very surprising Elvis C. song that shows he really has a good voice. Amber you would love the movie,
