Elvis Costello has performed on The Late Show With David Letterman for the 27th, and probably final time.
He could still return before Letterman's run is over, but it's looking increasingly unlikely. Letterman's reportedly using his last shows as host to book his favourite acts.
Costello performed a medley of Nick Lowe's 1980 track "When I Write The Book" and his own 1983 single "Everyday I Write The Book" alongside vocal three-piece the Quills.
Watch the performance below.
