For once Costello lets the mask slip long enough to let out a heartfelt plea (to be heard by his lover), as clouded as it might be in the inevitable word games. Though a good album track, it's a daft choice for a single — his excessively mannered voice makes much of the song incomprehensible on the first few plays, while the duet format — featuring mismatched Squeeze vocalist Glenn Tilbrook — diffuses its focus still further.

From A Whisper To A Scream

Elvis Costello And The Attractions

Chris Bohn

For once Costello lets the mask slip long enough to let out a heartfelt plea (to be heard by his lover), as clouded as it might be in the inevitable word games. Though a good album track, it's a daft choice for a single — his excessively mannered voice makes much of the song incomprehensible on the first few plays, while the duet format — featuring mismatched Squeeze vocalist Glenn Tilbrook — diffuses its focus still further.

Elvis Costello & The Attractions go back on the road this weekend for an extensive tour, lasting the whole of March. You can catch them initially at St. Austell (Sunday), Exeter (Monday), Bristol (Tuesday) and Birmingham (Wednesday).
