Newborn by Elbow - Song of the Decade

Song Info

From their debut album 'Asleep In The Back' this is an epic tune that would blow you away if you saw them perform this live and is often a closing song of their set, 'I will be the corpse in your bathtub' is the opening line and goes from there to a crescendo of graceful power and truth. A classic Elbow song for all time. Read more...

I feel that this song, along with so many other marvellous creation's from the Elbow guys deserve to be song of the decade!!! I personally do not know how it took so long for the greatly deserved success to arrive for the lads (bet it's a long time since they were called lads!!) but I do not know of another wholly talented and truly all round good guys that deserve all the accolades rained upon them in the last 18 months here's to another 18 years of beautiful from the heart music!!!! Thank You Elbow x
