Accidents Will Happen
"Accidents Will Happen" is a song written by Elvis Costello. It first appeared on the 1979 album ''Armed Forces'', which he recorded with The Attractions. In reference to the song title, the cover of the single was printed inside-out, and the run-out groove on side A reads "Porky Prime Cuts Will Happen" (referring to the trademark signature of cutting engineer George Peckham). The record had two B-sides; "Talking in the Dark" and "Wednesday Week". Released as the second single from ''Armed Forces'' album, it reached No. 28 on the UK Singles Chart in June 1979.
The accompanying music video, by Annabel Jankel and Rocky Morton, was one of the 35 videos selected for the Museum of Modern Art's "Golden Oldies of Music Video" exhibition in 2003.
==Reception==
In 2003, Matt LeMay of ''Pitchfork Media'' described the song in this way: "'Accidents Will Happen', one of the finest songs in his, or any, repertoire, matches a signature smirking double-entendre with an almost Baroque pop sensibility. Melodically and lyrically, the song is above reproach, as Costello sings of infidelity with what could either be construed as regret or smug satisfaction. It's also one of several songs on ''Armed Forces'' to benefit from the album's dense production."
In 2004, ''Entertainment Weekly'' voted it as one of Costello's top 10 greatest tunes.
