: 9. What song would you love to see Costello cover?
Lots man. I'm drunk now and not thinking clearly. But I love Elvis.
: 10. What Costello song would you like to see another artist cover? (name band and song)
Good fucking question. I've been trying to convince the dudes I know in third eye blind to cover elvis for a while. But I bet Phantom Planet would be able to do some wicked elvis covers, since he's one of their main influences and lots of their tunes totally elvis feel to them.
I'd like to hear them do "No Action", especially since they pretty much took the melody for a song of theirs called "Nobody's Fault But My Own."
They're a good band, if you dig Elvis I'd check them out. They write good songs.
