Re: Costello's Low Points

We have quite different tastes Todd- but, you make a lotta good choices
and ones I completely disagree with-Bama Lama Loo sounds like happy hour
on Karoake night-Sunday's best is a trifle though I kinda like it cause
it's so british-exotic to American ears. Nothing remotely wrong with B
Movie, or Pidgin english they are fantastic songs, Blue chair the KOA
version is much better than the Blood & Choclate version that is so
murky. Eisenhower Blues is obviously much much weaker than Suffering
face, King Of Confidence, or Having It All. The vocal on Misunderstood
should have been scrapped. Apparently, he had a cold and wanted to give
it a " sandpaper effect" or something of a strained plea, but with a
stronger vocal that would have been a terrific cover. I agree with Pay
It Back, I understand the sentiment, yet it's not much of a song one of
his weakest. I like Sneaky Fealings much better- ideawise-lyrically &
it's kinda catchy.
