"Stranger in the House" is a song composed by Elvis Costello. Costello recorded the song as a duet with country music star George Jones in the summer of 1978 for Jones' 1979 album My Very Special Guests. Costello recorded an earlier solo version which surfaced as a free 7" single with the first 1000 copies of his second album This Year's Model which was released in the United Kingdom in March 1978. A third version was recorded with the Attractions for a John Peel session on 23rd October 1978. According to Holly Jones-Warren's liner notes to the 2005 Legacy Records reissue of My Very Special Guests, Costello wrote the song specifically with Jones in mind, with the new wave star stating, "George Jones was my guiding light whenever I wrote in the country idiom".
