😲, I remember hearing 'Tie Me Kangaroo Down' on tv (The Ed Sullivan Show?) as a small child; this is the next time I've heard it...from Elvis Costello, no less!!! Loved it. Thank you.
LMAO! What is it about the siblings on these amazing sitcoms like Robert from Everybody Loves Raymond, Niles, and Jackie from Roseanne that makes them such iconic breakout characters? Oh, yeah they casted BRILLIANT actors in those roles. It's no wonder all three of those characters have earned their actors numerous emmys and nominations
Remember when they used to cast from Broadway? Now they're using Patrick Warburton. Love the guy, but he went to school to be a marine biologist. If he wasn't so handsome and baritone, he'd have no place in show business!
Elvis Costello on Frasier He starts the song having forced Niles to participate by shaking the egg in rhythm Niles ( Cuts him off) " Escuse me. I'm sorry but are you going to stick with that 4-4 tempo the whole song?" Elvis " Yeah yeah" ( Starts playing) Niles ( Cuts him off again) so that would be sort of an Andante kind of tempo ? Elvis ( Gets upset) JUST SHAKE IT OKAY? ( Plays again) 🎶🎶🎶 Tie me kangaroo down sport tie me kangaroo down Tie me kangaroo down sport tie me kangaroo down ALL TOGETHER NOW ( The whole café sings along while Niles starts to take a liking to the song) Elvis " EGG SOLO" Niles 💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃 Frasier " NILES" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I don't think Elvis Costello could foresee the future if it wasn't common knowledge back in 2002-2003. Jimmy Saville had rumors surrounding him before the story broke out. Not even Louis Theroux who made a documentary about and with Savile knew about him being a sexual predator. www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2016/oct/02/louis-theroux-savile-review-awkward-creepy-uncomfortable-extraordinary
Elvis Costello was my favorite artist in high school. His first five albums are incredible. It is painful to listen to this music. Why have a genius on your show and have him play that?
Man, Elvis C is really not a very good singer at all! He just kind of lucked into his niche, and made it. If he were unknown, and auditioning as a singer for a bar band, he would not get the gig!
It's easy to judge his singing from one or two apprentices (like here he's singing bad on purpose as a joke), but if you listen to more of his stuff he actually has an insane vocal range and strong vibrato. Listen any of his singing on the Juliet Letters.
