Costello is an Irish and Italian surname in the English language and Italian language.
The surname has been borne by a notable Irish family who claimed descent from Jocelyn de Angulo (fl. 1172), Anglo-Norman knight. The family first appears on record in Ireland in 1193, when the Annals of the Four Masters state: Inis Clothrann do orgain la macaibh Oisdealb, & la macaibh Conchobhair Maonmaighe. (Inishcloghbran was plundered by the sons of Osdealv, and the sons of Conor Moinmoy.)
In Italy, the name originated in the Campania region and in Sicily but is now more prevalent in the northern regions of Italy. Its origins as a surname are from the medieval Latin name "Costellus". It is related to Costa, a more common Italian surname, as its diminutive. http://www.ganino.com/cognomi_italiani_c
Oistealb or Osdealv was the Gaelic rendering of Jocelyn. The sons of Jocelyn were Philip, Gilbert, and William de Angulo. The descendants of William de Angulo (or Mac Costello) settled in Connacht and the name became Gaelicized, dropping the surname de Angulo in favor of Mac Oisdealb, or Mac [C]ostello. The barony of Costello in east Mayo is named from this family
Mink DeVille (1974–86) was a rock band known for its association with early punk rock bands at New York’s CBGB nightclub and for being a showcase for the music of Willy DeVille. The band recorded six albums in the years 1977 to 1985. Except for frontman Willy DeVille, the original members of the band played only on the first two albums (Cabretta and Return to Magenta). For the remaining albums and for tours, Willy DeVille assembled musicians to play under the name Mink DeVille. After 1985, when Willy DeVille began recording and touring under his own name, his backup bands were sometimes called “The Mink DeVille Band,” an allusion to the earlier Mink DeVille.
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame songwriter Doc Pomus said about the band, “Mink DeVille knows the truth of a city street and the courage in a ghetto love song. And the harsh reality in his voice and phrasing is yesterday, today, and tomorrow — timeless in the same way that loneliness, no money, and troubles find each other and never quit for a minute.”

Willy DeVille (August 25, 1950 – August 6, 2009) was an American singer and songwriter. During his thirty-five-year career, first with his band Mink DeVille (1974–1986) and later on his own, Deville created original songs rooted in traditional American musical styles. He worked with collaborators from across the spectrum of contemporary music, including Jack Nitzsche, Doc Pomus, Dr. John, Mark Knopfler, Allen Toussaint, and Eddie Bo. Latin rhythms, blues riffs, doo-wop, Cajun music, strains of French cabaret, and echoes of early-1960s uptown soul can be heard in DeVille's work.
Mink DeVille was a house band at CBGB, the historic New York City nightclub where punk rock was born in the mid-1970s. DeVille helped redefine the Brill Building sound. In 1987 his song "Storybook Love" was nominated for an Academy Award. After his move to New Orleans in 1988, he helped spark the roots revival of classic New Orleans R&B. His soulful lyrics and explorations in Latin rhythms and sounds helped define a new musical style sometimes called "Spanish-Americana".
"Soul Twist" is a 1962 instrumental crossover single for saxophonist, King Curtis. His debut single on the R&B charts was his most successful, hitting number one for two weeks. "Soul Twist" crossed over to the top 40, where it was one of three singles by King Curtis to make the chart.

This woman just get's madder and madder, she's the fire that burns deep with in us all, she's a raging beast from deep within. Watch as I question the 2 ladies at McDonalds about a poo I found inside my "whopper" burger. They don't think it ever happened but they wern't there, they didn't feel my pain, they never heard the tortued screams of anguish as I discovered that log inside my meal. They can't take it back but they can console me over the phone, too bad they have no desire to do so. All they want is for me to suffer more, until I tell them I'm suing that is.
