GEE YOU'RE SLAYING THEM RICO! ELVIS COSTELLO IT IS. WELL DONE. 5 MORE BIG POINTS.

:coolio: :coolio:

My source ("Complete U.K. Hit Singles 1952-2004"/ Graham Betts, whom a friend of mine works for at Pickwick Music Group U.K.) does say that she was his Grandmother, and the song that he and Paul McCartney co-wrote for/about her was "Veronica".

Another Quote. Which Musician do you think said this?
