Wasn't talking about good. I was talking about odd or surprising. And there is nothing surprising about Gaga. She was probably created by a marketing focus group.
No. There's no room for oddness in today's music scene. Everything is prepackaged and marketed. When was the last time someone genuinely surprising made it?
Well doesn't Marr cite one of his reasons for leaving The Smiths being the recording of a Cilla Black song? He's not above being a bit precious sometimes.
Re: OMG, Morrissey cancelled all forthcoming interviews
I agree with whoever said they don't understand why his people book him on these sort of engagements. It's obvious they scare him silly and he chickens out at the last minute.
I think it's just simply that Morrissey was never part of the in crowd of Manchester. The people deemed to be worthy of pop stardom by Wilson.

It's just nonsense. The quote about who Morrissey thinks should win Big Brother sealed it. The writer is obviously watching BB and just wanted to crowbar his own opinion in. About his level.
There's no way a journalist would allow a photographer to scoop an exclusive interview on a crappy...
I think a hell of a lot of Morrissey's songs are satire. There seems to be a general assumption that writing a song about something equates to approval. See the response to Last of the Famous as an equivalent example. It's not a glorification of gangsters at all to me, it's Morrissey saying what...
No, the best place to hear Smiths songs played live is at a Morrissey gig. With the original singer who wrote them. And his band may not play the songs exactly as they sound note for note on the records, but they play them better than any tribute band will ever manage. That's because they are a...
