Elvis Costello assembled a cast of thousands for his 1989 album Spike. It gained a lot of attention at the time for containing his songwriting collaborations with Paul McCartney, but those are just a small fraction (two songs out of 15) of the story here. Instead, it's mainly a Costello flex, as he shows off his ability to dabble in all manner of styles and genres without losing his songwriting edge, which is alternately biting and tender. Here are the five best songs on this jam-packed album.
