Enormously talented songwriter. Pretty polarizing tho, it seems. I have a lot of musically sophisticated friends who really, really can't stand him.

He's a top 5 artist for me.

This Year's Model is one of my favorite albums all time. Imperial Bedroom is good. Past that I think his albums are uneven but the good songs are really good (e.g. New Amsterdam on Get Happy).

I've never really liked Armed Forces but I suppose it's a decent album. My aim is true is pretty good. This Year's Model is on another level, though.

I don't listen to hip hop and haven't really listened to new music in 15 years. Just was never a big Costello-mo.

I actually broke up with a girl after one of his songs came on the radio and she said, "Who is this?" And when I told her she said, "I've never heard of him." I couldn't get over that and we broke up a month later because of the age difference.

watching the detectives is good. the rest of his songs are too whiny and emo sounding, similar to the Clash, too overwrought.

I like how much he hates Sting though.

I wonder from a Clique Theory perspective who exactly was his fan base back in the day. Jocks listened to like Bad Company and Foreigner back then. Women and non-whites liked disco. Nerds I assume were into prog rock like Rush, Yes, etc. I guess it was pure Loser Clique who liked Elvis Costello, Joe Jackson and stuff like that. Rock critics are always Losers so it would explain why they were critically acclaimed.
