0 comments


Get Happy!!

This Studio album by Elvis Costello is from 80s. It is the fourth album from New wave, punk, 2 Tone, blue-eyed soul artist. Get Happy!! is notable for being a dramatic break in tone from Elvis' last "trilogy" of commercially successful albums, and for being heavily influenced by R&B and soul music.

My favorite songs from this 80s great album is "Love for Tender". Other tracks are "Opportunity", "The Imposter", "Secondary Modern", "King Horse", "Possession", "Men Called Uncle", "Clowntime Is Over", "New Amsterdam", "High Fidelity", "I Can't Stand Up For Falling Down" (Homer Banks, Allen Jones), "Black & White World", "5ive Gears in Reverse", "B Movie", "Motel Matches", "Human Touch", "Beaten to the Punch", "Temptation", "I Stand Accused" (Tony Colton, Ray Smith), and "Riot Act".
