Listen: Elvis Costello Rings in the New Year with “Farewell, OK 2020”


Elvis Costello has revived a classic ’50s/’60s-era rock and roll sound for his surprise, end-of-year track “Farewell, OK 2020.”

After stoking excitement for the release on social media, Costello eventually offered the rollicking track with artwork reminiscent of The Twilight Zone, and a caption reading, “The Shape Of Things To Come 2021.”

Lyrics include, “Farewell, OK/ You’ll be on way/ You’ll be on your own now/ Much to my dismay.”

Despite the pandemic, Costello released his newest studio project Hey Clockface in October.
