Unique or eternal truth ." What do you mean just shut up and sing you fool ?

You Israelis are under more than enough threat ,what with Hizballah ,Iran ,Syria ,Hamas ,Obama ,Clinton that I hereby withdraw my threat to sing in your country.

deserve to be amongst us. We have done well for thousands of years without him. We shall do even better if he stays away.

Has a poor voice, now the real Elvis was incomparable, he could really sing. The King.

fan. he has visited memphis many times. unfortunately he should have the smarts to seperate his music from his politics. he has lost a lot more fans than he has gained. can't ever listen to him again in the same light. he put his ignorance on the table for all to see. "whats so funny about peace, love, and understanding?". obviously the credit goes to nick lowe where it belongs.

from the country with the background of love for all things Jewish. maybe you should perform in the circus

Bit by bit, every time someone gets fed up with the lack of accountability for your country's actions, they stop showing up. Chomsky, Costello, I'm sure there are hundreds of big names already and the list is growing exponentially. Each time someone notable decides to boycott Israel, you give them the finger and say you didn't want them anyway. Can't wait to see all the complaints about antisemitism when no one important wants to visit you anymore.

I will be sure to Boycott anything remotely connected to Elvis Costello. So let's put to the side anything that is may be against. I do view this however that he supports bombing and killing of innocent Israeli men, women and children, and apparently he is against one defending themselves against terror.

CDS... HE IS ALOSER ,HAS-BEEN PERFROMER.... WHO IS NOTHING BUT A SPINELSS NOBODY!

I think this is his contact info from his website. www.elviscostello.com info@elviscostellouk.com or Elvis Costello 2 Kempton Cottages, Norton Road, Riseley, Rreading, RG7 1SL, UK.

Costello, you literally rock! Keep the pressure on the disgusting apartheid entity until it finally folds and gives in to international demands: equity, justice, and freedom to all. You are either with apartheid, or against it. There is really no middle ground and Costello has taken the right decision. If only every artist/event thought the same!

I always thought his music was quite' wanky'. Well, what would you expect from a 'WANKER'?

... would have done better buy cancelling the event without opening his mouth with this self-righteous tirade. How ignorant was he when he booked it in the first place to become so well informed in such a short space of time? This guy was fed a string of lies that he swallowed without bothering to check things out for himself. Whatever is inherent in this guy is certainly not love for Jews! Good riddance to him and his likes,

Can't stand him - he can't sing to save his life.

Elvis Costello, if that's his real name, is evidently afraid to "walk through this wicked world" and judge Israel for himself. Scheduling concerts and then reneging says a lot about his artistry. If he’s so passionate about the Palestinian cause, why doesn’t he perform in Gaza? (As if the democratic Hamas government there would permit it.) I used to like Mr. Costello (musically speaking), but now question the integrity behind his songs. I wonder what he thought about that tune the Palestinians were dancing to on 9/11? Big star. Little man.

TYPICAL...Another liberal, self-absorbed, egotistical, confused, british musician with their head up their A**. Let them go back to england - oops, I mean "London-istan" and play for their kind...all of the no talent, brain washed and washed up british musicians who dont know that their music really sucks.

So Mr Costello if you belive in human rights I guess you will now be creating a song for the world to hear about the 19 yr old Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit who was taken by Palestinian terrorists and kept in a hole for the last 3 years with no visits from the Red Cross. Can you imagine that! sing out to the world how inhumane that is. the only news his parents have had of hiim in the last 3 years is this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUR5HIHkYUs

We could send you to johannesburg...

Or maybe he will take singing lessons ...

If "Israel" allowed him to come to Ramallah ,Elvis fans will surprise you , especially after today :P You can listen to music of Lieberman, it suits you best..........Bye bye

He has an unpleasant and irritating voice. It is a good thing that Israelis don't have to face his torture. His wife Diana Krall on the other hand is a delight to listen. She only made one bad album and it was her husbands production.

Now I'll have to burn all my Elvis Costello albums and CDs - or maybe I should make copies first, and offer those for free to everyone (except Arabs and Lefties)

I thought there were ONLY clowns in Ramallah. They're so good they don't need costumes or funny noses. - But I'll have to burn my Elvis Costello albums and CDs. Maybe we could have a worldwide burning event. He's truly the stranger in the house.

Visiting Israel at this point in time is akin to visiting South Africa during the height of the apartheid regime. Perhaps, after penning an antiwar song like 'Oliver's Army', the hypocrisy underlying a visit was too much to stomach.

Where there was going to be music and joyfulness, there is now the deafening silence, the absence of applause, and the sound of crickets chirping in the darkness. It takes more than 20% amnesia to forget how to keep your word and to betray an entire audience. Nothing can repair that. I had no idea he was such a 2 faced h8er.

I'm an "artiste" you know.

Sir , I am a classical music lover so am not particularly interested in your music and therefore am neutral .Had you taken a more neutral stance ,you could have come here ,just for a few days ,got some sun on your back and enjoyed a fine hotel ,fine food and wine and made yourself a nice few quid for a few hours work and given happiness to people .My friend ,innocents suffer whether you perform her or not so you truly shot yourself in the foot .About one thing you are right ,you will not likely be invited to perform here again .Once bitten twice shy .A true artist knows the show goes on whatever .I feel pity for you because you have made a mistake by being influenced by agitators who just manipulated you.

I SAID THIS WOULD HAPPEN WHEN IT WAS ANNOUNCED HE WOULD BE PERFORMING HERE.
