Elvis Costello

At first encounter, I found Elvis Costello to be too arrogant because of how his album cover says "Elvis is king." Yes, Elvis is King, but Costello. And I also don't like how he changed his name to Elvis in the first place, and called himself king right before the real Elvis died.  Musically, however, he's alright. The best thing he has going for him is his lyrics, which are pretty smart. But the way he sounds is just okay, he just sounds like some middle of the road band that nobody would really pay attention to, and it surprises me that he got famous. He's classified as Punk, which makes no sense because he doesn't sound anything like punk. But his mentality, | guess, is rebellious.
