Favourite song on Low In High School?
I think his biggest sin on LIHS (and parts of WPINOYB) is that much of it is just corny. I wouldn't like it if anybody sang it. Spent the day in bed is in my top 3 most disliked he's ever done, and Girl from Tel Aviv just reeks of a slide into Neil Diamond like schmaltz, but meant to be taken seriously. So... Like Neil Diamond, I guess, but Neil has always been corny, just enjoyable despite that or maybe even because of that.If these 3 songs were left off the album and replaced with the 3 best of the 8 not used - then it would be one of his best albums.
The Girl From Tel-Aviv Who Wouldn't Kneel - has to be one of the worst songs of his career
All The Young People Must Fall In Love - HATE HATE HATE this style of music
Who Will Protect Us From The Police... *I will say musically it's pretty good - it's just the title and the repeated bad lyrics that kill it for me
Best = Home is a ?.
Worst = Israel or All the Young People.
I couldn't agree more until you said "Israel" as a Worst contender? I can't compute that. Can I ask you why you hate it?
Best = Home is a ?.
Worst = Israel or All the Young People.
Spot on. Israel has great vocals but atrocious lyrics.
Ok."Israel"* and "Home Is A Question Mark" without a doubt
*to those who rush to offend its lyrics - they are directly addressed to your (yes, your!) ignorance
If you take out the "Israel" chorus, the lyrics actually read like they are about Morrissey himself.
