  Elvis Costello is very good. But sometimes in the past he gas sung a little flat. However, I saw some stuff of his a few years ago and it was just beautiful.

Mark Kozelek - What's Next to the Moon

The songs are all covers of old Bon Scott era AC/DC songs, but all done with just acoustic guitar and vocals.

The Acoustic version of this is brill!

She makes me go so wrong
(yeah, you kept me away, you know you did)
Ive loved her oh, so long
(so why dont you come right out and say it, stupid? )

She makes me do things I dont want to do
I dont know why I should be telling you
I know that you want her too
My intentions are quite sincere
(thats not what you said the other night)

And all you can do is sneer
(so go ahead and kid yourself youre right)
She makes me do things I dont want to do
I dont know why I should be telling you
I know that you want her too

Ive got a better chance than you do
I know that you want her too
Youre such a hopeless romantic
She told me youre so predictable and nice
She only did you a favor once or twice
Once or twice

She makes me go so wrong
(so why dont you lie back and enjoy it? )
Oh, my conscience is clear and strong
(yes, she says Im just the boy for it)

She makes me do things I dont want to do
I dont know why I should be telling you
I know that you want her too
I know that you want her too
I know that you want her too

McCartney/costello

you want her too~
