People don't really get satire anymore. I don't know if it's a sign of times or this always been the case.
Back when I was in high school, my English teacher used to tell us about the time a parent reported her to the principle for the "promotion of Jeffrey Dahmerism" after teaching "A Modest...
Alright, this was my sixth time seeing Morrissey. It was also, if I am going to be perfectly honest, the first time I wasn't extremely excited to see him before hand. Between the lackluster nature of the new album and just the constant and unnecessary controversy over unneeded remarks, even for...
Morrissey is touring a lot, but he is a pretty great live performer still and most people I know who have seen him post 2011 think the same.
He has always played smaller venues, but he was still selling them out up until like the third or fourth round of cancellations, which I think hurt him...
The Smiths, probably Viva Hate (and by extension Bona Drag), and possibly Vauxhall and I.
Sam Etsy isn't going to be remembered anymore than Morrissey with sideburns, gold chains, and fake cuts and bruises.
People who say they don't want some sort of reunion are lying. Having seen both Morrissey and Marr live and been blown away with both I cannot help but think about Morrissey's voice (which live is the best it has ever been) over Marr's playing. I mean is there anyone who would really tell me...
An article about how the Smiths wore unique clothes because the clothes they wore were not particularly unique? I have never read this before!
I mean I sort of got "Smiths were the original hipsters" articles, because I can kinda see it, but norm core? Is that like wearing sweatpants or...
Probably the best possible outcome would be a joint tour where they both play their solo stuff with their respective bands (which I am pretty sure they both are convinced is better than The Smiths) and than do a joint set together of Smiths stuff.
Though a reunion is probably more likely than that.
Valid point and that is certainly how his albums are able to spring to the top of the UK charts despite selling few copies. However, I would note that both Autobiography and List of the Lost got far more press attention that any of his more recent albums. And Morrissey's status as a cultural...
Um...ok.
For the record, I think Southpaw Grammar is a criminally underrated album. I have seen Morrissey live five times since 2012 and he is a superb, tip top live perform. I would see him five more times. Fifteen even. I would consider him to be a genius. Art can be criticized. The Beatles...
I've spent a lot of time on here arguing with people who have a very unhealthy, obsessive hatred of Morrissey. People who for some reason feel the need to devote their lives to their hatred of a stranger and often times make up things out right and ignore facts.
I am fairly certain that none of...
There a lot of missed opportunities for singles. That seems to be the story of Morrissey's solo career.
However, it is unquestionably Morrissey's best song in...along time. And I do agree with you that it is the most "characteristically" Morrissey song in sometime. I think lyrically its almost...
No, please be that guy. I know next to nothing about flamenco music so I was really grasping at straws with that comment. I do hear the big band/swing sound to it and that makes sense.
