Elvis Costello is one of the greatest songwriters of all-time! He’s the greatest lyricist, surpassing even Bob Dylan.

That's what I've thought since I first heard him. Plus he writes actual tunes. To me, he's THE greatest singer-songwriter ever.
This is the most intelligent, most knowledgeable interviewer I've ever seen Elvis be interviewed by. His knowledge of the first few years of Costello's career is, for a guy his age, who didn't live it the first time around, stellar.

I mean, he did, he said he was 7 when he heard pump it up. But, the concept of research also exists.
Legend. One of the greatest songwriters of all time and one of my favourite artists ever
Attention! PBS, BBC! Do a documentary with him today. Nobody is as important as Elvis C. for so many decades.

A living legend!
huuuuuge fave of mine....met him twice, luckily...
One of the more insightful interviewers I’ve heard. Knowing enough to ask the right questions, but not too much, and trying to rush Elvis to get the anecdote out. I wrote a college paper, analyzing Everyday I Write the Book as a poem. It succeeds on so many levels. I still crank it up when I hear it on the (local alternative) radio!
Wish he talked more about imperial bedroom...
No one listens to the words? I have always loved his words!

His lyrics are 2nd to none, well maybe Lennon & McCartney, but very very close.

Yeah, we did and we do, but I’m convinced a lot of people who liked his music when it hit the charts just enjoyed the sound. How else to explain the paltry numbers on KZread content where he appears?
A good time to listen to EC is when you are in an angry mood.

Yeah, even his “sweet” songs have an edge.
A compositional colossus whose extraordinary oeuvre has enriched my life for nearly four decades.
There are certain artist’s catalogues you can boil down into an essential playlist or a single CD ‘greatest hits’, but Elvis Costello isn’t one of them. To see him as just the catchy hits from the late 70’s/early 80’s does his work an injustice.
Talking of package tours, in the 60s Jimi Hendrix supported Englebert Humperdinck! Apparently they became hugely respectful of each other.
Elvis is a legend! And what a fantastic job by Zane Lowe on the interview. Great stuff!!
