Elvis Costello - A Good Year For The Roses
I can hardly bear the sight of lipstick On the cigarettes there in the ashtray Lyin' cold the way you left 'em But at least your lips caressed them while you packed Or the lip-print on a half-filled cup of coffee That you poured and didn't drink But at least you thought you wanted it that's so much more than I can say for me What a good year for the roses Many blooms still linger there The lawn could stand another mowin' Funny I don't even care As you turn to walk away As the door behind you closes The only thing I have to say It's been a good year for the roses After three full years of marriage It's the first time that you haven't made the bed I guess the reason we're not talkin' There's so little left to say we haven't said While a million thoughts go racin' through my mind I find I haven't said a word From the bedroom the familiar sound Of one baby's cryin' goes unheard What a good year for the roses Many blooms still linger there The lawn could stand another mowin' Funny I don't even care As you turn to walk away As the door behind you closes The only thing I have to say It's been a good year for the roses

This version is just almost perfect. I like the way Elvis changes just a few things with the melody in every live performance.

You will find this beauty on the1983 album "Punch the Clock"..the tune was originally written for Robert Wyatt..but Elvis rewrote it and made it his own

Poster owns no copyright to music or video which is posted for the purposes of nostalgia, education and entertainment. Nick Lowe classic cover by Elvis Costello with either the Attractions or Imposters given the former were both Elvis' former bands, with video shot on English Bay, Stanley Park and other locations in Vancouver BC judging by the scenery and totem poles. The subtitles in whatever language reveal understanding wasn't the intent, so what of peace and love? Hope everyone gets as big a kick out of the subtitles and their irony when juxtaposed with the song title.

Elvis Costello - Peace Love and Understanding - Vintage Video
Rare video of Elvis and the Attractions. High quality sound. From 1978's "Armed Forces". EC and the boys doing their famous version of Nick Lowe's "(What's so funny 'Bout) Peace, Love and Understanding." Notice that in some shots keyboardist Steve Nieve is 'playing' guitar. Guess they couldn't be bothered to bring a keyboard out to the jungle. Or a drum kit for that matter. Anybody have a clue about where this was filmed? Looks like maybe Alaska: tall trees, totem poles, forest, seashore.

SHE - ELVIS COSTELLO
She May be the face I can't forget The trace of pleasure or regret May be my treasure or the price I have to pay She May be the song that summer sings May be the chill that autumn brings May be a hundred different things Within the measure of a day She May be the beauty or the beast May be the famine or the feast May turn each day into a heaven or a hell She may be the mirror of my dreams The smile reflected in a stream She may not be what she may seem Inside her shell She Who always seems so happy in a crowd Whose eyes can be so private and so proud No one's allowed to see them when they cry She May be the love that cannot hope to last May come to me from shadows of the past That I'll remember till the day I die She May be the reason I survive The why and wherefore I'm alive The one I'll care for through the rough in ready years Me I'll take her laughter and her tears And make them all my souvenirs For where she goes I've got to be The meaning of my life is She She, oh she...

Or take myself far from this place I thought I heard a black bell toll A little bird did sing Man has no choice When he wants everything We'll rise above the scarlet tide That trickles down through the mountain And separates the widow from the bride Man goes beyond his own decision Gets caught up in the mechanism Of swindlers who act like kings And brokers who break everything The dark of night was swiftly fading Close to the dawn of the day Why would I want him Just to lose him again
