“I Want You”, Elvis Costello

This way: I want You

“blistering songs about sexual despair and disgust”

What a truly great album.

Elvis Costello, is an English singer-songwriter. He has won multiple awards in his career, including Grammy Awards in 1999 and 2020, and has twice been nominated for the Brit Award for Best British Male Artist. In 2003, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In 2004, Rolling Stone ranked Costello number 80 on its list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.

Costello began his career as part of London's pub rock scene in the early 1970s and later became associated with the first wave of the British punk and new wave movement that emerged in the mid-to-late 1970s. His critically acclaimed debut album My Aim Is True was released in 1977. 

From the great LP “Blood and Chocolate” of 1986. On this record he referred to himself as Napoleon Dynamite which was borrowed unceremoniously for the title of a film.
