Elbow's lead singer and lyricist Guy Garvey on his ability:
"I'm not David Bowie. Who are we kidding? At the end of the day, I'm the same person I've always been. I'm Don Garvey's son from up the road."

WAYS TO HIDE AN ELEPHANT
Dig a huge hole and bung it in.
Lay it down behind a double-decker bus.
Pile hundreds of bricks in front of it.
Sell it.
Chuck it in the sea.
Put it behind a bigger elephant.
Chop it up and put it in the freezer.
Dress it in a huge coat so people think it's loads of children standing on each other's shoulders to pretend they are an adult so they can sneak in to an over 18 film.
Get a magician to make it vanish.
Close your eyes.
Just talk to it.
