[QUOTE="Oh my, post: 1987353412, member: 28158"] Yes!!! I am glad you posted the two songs... I always noticed the surprising similarity between anarcho-punk & Morrissey. As to give an obvious example, Conflict's "Meat means murder" (1983) and The Smiths "Meat is murder" (1985) are basically the same song, except that the musical style is obviously absolutely different. Sometimes it is as if he was an anarcho-punk singer disguised as a pop singer (some bands tried to do it, but without very surprising results... Chumbawamba comes to my mind... Rubella Ballet did it for a while, but it was not really pop and they mostly switched to darwave styled lyrics). [/QUOTE]
