LASCIATE OGNI SPERANZA!
There are only two artists that stand alone and untouched as the greatest music lyricists.
One is Morrissey, the other is Dylan.
Of course there’s many, many good lyricists.
But M and Dylan, both, very different writers, have in my summation had the largest impact on song writers that have come after. And these artists that have come after, or are even contemporaries, may not even be aware of the influence that these two artists have had on them.
Both Morrissey and Dylan, mostly imitated, for better and even for worse sometimes.
What do you folks think ?
