About "High Fidelity"
"High Fidelity" is a song written and performed by new wave musician Elvis Costello on his 1980 album, Get Happy!! Written about an adulterous couple where one member still hopes for reconciliation, "High Fidelity" reflected the personal struggles that Costello had been suffering at the time as a result of increased fame and controversy. Musically, the song was influenced by Motown and was initially performed in a slower style inspired by David Bowie's Station to Station.
"High Fidelity" was released as the second single from Get Happy!! in April 1980. The single reached number 30 in the United Kingdom. The song has since been lauded by critics and has been included on several Costello compilation albums.
