Hahaha LOVE VERONICA! And Alison and My aim is true and watching the detectives and...

hmmm...looks like alison is also my aim is true 😉

@crazycurlz One of my favourite characters is Alison. She's new here. Someone mentions to her "my aim is true" and she just doesn't get it.

I can't really claim to be that knowledgeable about Elvis Costello, but some years ago I decided I was going to hear some more of his music. One song I heard stood out. The name of the tune was "So Like Candy". I listened a few more times and decided:

  • I really liked it.
  • I was guessing it was not written by him, or just by him.
  • I took a guess as to who had written it (or co-written it) and the guess turned out to be right.

At the time I didn't realize that he had co-written a number of tunes with Paul McCartney (including I guess Veronica). This link seems to have a list of the tunes.

Yeah, Elvis Costello is flexible in his work. He can be fun (Everyday I Write the Book), and he can be savage.
