So, I always hear about Elvis Costello, but I couldn't tell you one song he has done. I know I was in the car with the radio on once, and they played an Elvis Costello song that sounded very familiar. However, I have since forgotten it, and couldn't tell you one other song by him. Do you know any? OK music fans, I am talking to you!

I have heard that song...as I have seen Nottinghill more than once, but I didn't know he did the tune. Thanks.

I am gonna have to give it a listen and see if I recognize it. Did you know this off the top of your head or did you have to look it up?

@snowy22315 I have known the song off the top of my head since Nick Lowe's band Brinsley Schwarz released it in 1974. And, I have known about Elvis Costello's version since he released it four years later.

Oh, I love Elvis Costello! His biggest "commercial" hits were "Veronica" and "Everyday I Write the Book." "Veronica" was co-written with Paul McCartney.

I was thinking Veronica sounded similar to the Beatles Michele.

No, that was Led Zeppelin..unless he did his own version. Go back to your cave Judy Evans.

Haha - no need to be rude. I should know better than to comment on music posts.

I know a few of his songs but I would say as not being a big fan of his this would be his most known song. I might be wrong but listen to this one maybe it will sound familiar.
