Looking back ... or is it listening back ?

I discovered this album in the end of 1989 ... I was 14 going on 15 ... I bought it because of the cover ( it was a tape)... wondering what was behind it ... the guy look a bit like Buddy Holly I thought .. His name is quite funny (Elvis Costello).. and then I listened and Wowww ... I started translating the words .. wanted to understand the lyrics ... and I did ... And I listened to the album again... and again and again.. I wore out the tape ... so I bought the CD ... and listened to it again... and again and again ... Then I listened to other things ( again and again...). Yesterday I felt the need to listen to Spike ... I know every song by heart now but I'm not tired of any of them ... so I guess this week is going to be Spike week !
