Morrissey A-Z: "Little Man, What Now?"




Today's song is this Morrissey/Street composition from Viva Hate.

What do we think?

L.M.W.N., ? Bobby Driscoll comes to mind. Bails out Disney, then they toss em out like rubbish they did. Wretched lot. Sal Mineo sort of...but Sal went off the rails into soft porno and after squeaky clean Plato ? Train wreck, then jacked dead by bubba...my my. Hollywood Babble On.....
 
A star at 18, then suddenly gone. .....Friday nights 1969, A TV you murdered every line. Hmm that makes a 1951 birth yr. love. Hugs....Jackie Cooper

Yeah, could definitely be about Marr too.

a metaphor about

:handpointright::guardsman::handpointleft:'s future once kicked out

by Moz.🙂

uncanny how accurate:hammer:
 
It's a wonderful song - an absolute joy both musically and lyrically, and the singing ain't bad either.
But it's still a second-tier song, though, compared to the album's highlights.
Vauxhall's second-tier songs (Lazy Sunbathers, Spring Heeled Jim etc.) are nowhere near as good as this, and that's why Viva Hate will always be his best solo album.
 
KKK Dude burns again



:mad:
Magento back from the HORSE RACES, where he drank beer wine cheese and olives, supping on delicacies and
making over 5oo on the back of hundreds of horses 2o races at 1o horse per:censored:
Poor exploited horses that ran and ran and ran until they collapsed while Magento and fam watched from the tribune.What was his reaction when confronted by his behaviour??? " THE HORSES IN CARLISLE SUCK"!!!!!!
the poor horses are immobile from exhaustion and thats his attitude: LET THEM EAT CAKE!!!:censored:
Memphisto wears magenta peeps remember that.
also we can pretty much consider Magento :banned:from shows
only the cancelled shows with 'janice' for him from now on:clap:
 
If this is about Marr, Moz goes to great lengths to hide it. Dear god... A for effort, at least, guys.

I have no real idea why, but I love this song.
The music & structure is unusual for a Moz song, & I like the nostalgic references; it's all pure genius as far as I'm concerned.
As others have mentioned, the positioning is perfect on the album.

Nice to know I’m living rent free in your head clown shoes👆
I’m still waiting to hear what shows you’ve been to down the years📝👈
What songs are your favourite 😍👈
We can get through this xx
 
no effort needed on his part ....




:thumb:

What I meant was: A for effort on your part, trying to make this one of all songs to be about Johnny Marr. I’m sure there are songs written about him or inspired by their relationship, but this one is not one of those songs.

Oh I was talking about the title really.

And why not? Imagine Morrissey saying to himself while moving on with his solo album, Johnny Marr, now that you broke up The Smiths, what are you going to do now? To me it’s just as far fetched or ‘true’ as saying that Break up the family is about the Smiths split.

Though we all know that Angel down we go.. is the only song about Marr from VH.

The rest is just opinions.

:cool:

Yes, I agree. That’s the only one.
