Anyone love Morrissey?
« on: December 02, 2006, 08:25:36 pm »


So, who loves the music of Morrissey?

I think its fantastic, whether The Smiths or solo work, Whats your Favourite album (by either The Smiths or Morrissey)? Whats your favourite song?

[im not hopeful for many responses from people who arnt British  ;)]

The reason I bring this up is that he has been voted into the top 3 greatest British living icons.

Some of his stuff seems relativly good. Other times he seems to go the complete opposite end of the spectrum though. I can't name songs or albums. All I've heard is in passing on radio and tv and such.
I suggest the statue of Laanx gets turned into a statue of Parallo <3. An NPC could never replace the huge hole he left in my heart when he died  :'(

That's funny you ask Idoru. I just burned all 10 Lp's from The Smiths for a friend today, and noticed I no longer like their music as I once did.

I have a couple Smiths album.  I dug them at first, but got bored of them.  There are a couple songs that stick out and I understand what made the smiths great, but it just isn't my thing.

10 LPs?

They only made 4 studio albums..... or are you refering to some solo work aswell?
