Girls! Girls! Girls!

From 2012, please enjoy Elvis Costello and a blistering performance of Nick Lowe's ironic hippie anthem...



...but pay special attention to the world's coolest go-go dancers.

Yes, it's who you think they are. Amazingly enough.

    A) Pete Thomas on drums just kills on this

    B) When Costello does the quote from "the kids are alright" I totally lose it.

    Who knew EC was such a Pete Townshend fan? Not just the quote from The Kids Are Alright, but the red Strat, and pickup switch stuttering straight out of 1965. Fabulous!

    Leaves me floored everytime I listen to that song. And the Bangles were a very nice side show.

    Thank you Sir!

    Still prefer the Brinkley Schwarz version. Susanna Hoffs and Matthew Sweet covered this song in their Between the Covers series.
