But he's not the only one. "What A Catch, Donnie," the third single from the band's forthcoming fifth studio album Folie à Deux features a whole case of characters singing lines from various Fall Out Boy songs. In an especially meta move, Costello handles Folie's second single, "Headfirst Slide Into Cooperstown On A Bad Bet." Other crooners include Hall & Oates fan Travis McCoy of Gym Class Heroes ("Sugar, We're Goin' Down"), Panic At The Disco's Brendon Urie ("Dance, Dance"), ex-Midtown dude Gabriel Saporta ("Grand Theft Autumn/Where Is Your Boy"), The Academy Is...'s William Beckett ("Growing Up"), etc. Right, Costello is sorta odd man out among a bunch of Decaydancers. Listen.

His line about Elvis Costello — that critics like Costello because most of them look like him — is the kind of thing that haunts people in my profession to this day. At the time, Diamond Dave was Van Halen’s wildman lead s...

Elvis Costello and ZZ Top frontman Billy Gibbons are both legendary veteran road-dog types with long resumes and distinctive looks, and both of them did pretty well on MTV in the network’s early years. Still, Costello and Gibbons are not necessarily two people I would necessarily consider to be natural collaborators with one another, s...
