Elvis Costello - Is She Really Going Out With Him[/quote]

Elvis Costello did a cover of this song? I've only heard Joe Jackson's version.

No he didn't - it was a typo on my part.

Ooh, I've never used the "random shuffle" option on my iPod before. I should give it (and participating in this thread) a go:

1. Dave Clark Five, "Bits And Pieces"
2. The Fall, "Rowche Rumble"
3. Paul Haig, "Stolen Love (Remix)"
4. John Foxx, "Ghosts On Water"
5. Roxy Music, "All I Want Is You"

Wow, awesome. I adore every single one of those songs. :)

[i]I haven't heard "Bits and Pieces" in ages, I'll have to see if I still have it.[/i]

OMG I hope you listened to it. How could you (or anyone else) deny the power of "Bits And Pieces"?

Me try this exercise again.

1. The Dolphin Brothers, "Real Life, Real Answers"
2. Our Daughters Wedding, "Target For Life" (all right, my first genuine NWO-ist song/artist!)
3. Ultravox!, "When You Walk Through Me"
4. The Associates, "Nothing In Something Particular"
5. Ambulance LTD, "Michigan"

Ok, apparently my iPod really, really likes me, because it keeps on picking out all these great, great songs. Or maybe it could be that I loaded it solely with the songs that I *would* consider "great" and, er, well, that was embarrassing, wasn't it?
