Nail + head = YOU. Could not have said it better myself.

Great album...all that cynicism and malevolence got me through a bad break-up.

every music site has it's anti-troll to try to throw a monkey in the wrench...their hatred of the performer, whether real or not goes beyond anything factual..."NowPleaseReadThis" is this sites anti-Elvis troll..have fun wasting time arguing with it

I understand why Bruce Thomas sometimes referred to Costello as 'the singer'. His input was architectural in structure and made the fleshing out of Elvis's chord progressions into the best pop band since the Beatles (in my book). Thomas coupled in with his brother Petes snappy energizing drumming made creations unique to them. Nieve's keyboards were dazzling fun compositions and adornments.

EC still does not respect the fact that it was the THE ATTRACTIONS creative input and musical talent into the first albums (This Years Model' through "Punch the Clock') that was half cause for his success. Unfortunately he decided to wear the bands mantle to bed and has been riding those laurels through one dull fancy after another since.

@NowPleaseReadThis dude, the imposters (with whom he is playing in this video) are basically the attractions. only difference is the bassist. they still kill it.

Imperial Bedroom is his best

Elvis Costello and THE ATTRACTIONS were the best thing since the Beatles. Mr McManus much like Sting, Gordon Summer are has beens without their dymnamic compatriots. At least Mick Jagger wised up and dumped his solo career.

Thanks for posting this, as for anything else from Imperial Bedroom. Until now I'd not heard or seen the opening tune done live. The bass inversions are amazing, Steve's keys kill, the drums explode. But this song has a tough melody with big melodic and dynamic jumps , and EC delivers that vocal, big time. Yow!

Joyce Ellingsen

My favorite Elvis song. Hypnotic, intense, lyrical... I hope I'm never alone in the bone orchard... Or a gin palace... Let us smile very sweetly!

@selleronthehizzle2 Give the guy a break, will ya? Performing live is hard work and not every effect can or should be replicated in the field.

An amazing album indeed: "Imperial Bedroom" is a masterpiece, one of the 10 most perfect pop albums ever made. Not a word or a note out of place, nothing extra nothing missing, fifty-one flawlessly ferocious minutes of near-fearless genius, a tremendous feat that I feel fortunate to exist in the same space-time-continuum as.

In key of... B?

PuffGeneseo

thought this was the best song e.c. did. have been listening to it for 20 years. first time i've seen him perform it. thanks to youtube.

I have no idea how EC can remember the words to all his songs... he's written hundreds of them.. and most of them (like this one) are lyrically very difficult. It's just simply amazing.
