April 6, 200619 yr And I know that Fiction was an imprint, but if you don't put the likes of The Cure, Jesus and Mary Chain, Echo and the Bunnymen and others like them into the 'Indie' category, then where do they fit...? Exactly...and where do the Teardrop Explodes fit? They were having top 10 / top 20 hits back in 1981.
April 6, 200619 yr I haven't ever really liked any of his solo stuff I've heard tbh. The Smiths were far better...
April 6, 200619 yr I haven't ever really liked any of his solo stuff I've heard tbh. The Smiths were far better... His solo stuff has been a bit patchy it has to be said, but there's more good than bad. "You Are The Quarry" and the new one are deffo on a par with anything he did for The Smiths....
April 6, 200619 yr The new album is pretty good, I heard that the other day. I only ever heard the singles off his last album. First of the Gang To Die and Irish Blood... were really good but I really didn't like I've Forgiven Jesus and the other one, I forget the name now...

April 11, 200619 yr Ah, Let Me Kiss You was beautiful! I'm loving Ringleader of the Tormentors more every listen.... Dear God Please Help Me, Life is a Pigsty and The Youngest was the Most Loved are 3 of the best songs Moz has ever written... and Ennio Morricone's work.... stunning.
April 11, 200619 yr Author I haven't ever really liked any of his solo stuff I've heard tbh. The Smiths were far better... however i suppose its hard to compare if you have to come to the Smiths backwards from Morrissey's recent solo stuff hard to put in persective when all you've got is q magazine specials and you dont know what it was like of the time
January 8, 200718 yr I like his views on vegetarianism. Meat is Murder has brilliant lyrics. Edited January 8, 200718 yr by x-The_Royston_Poisoner-x
January 9, 200718 yr I love The Smiths... but i really cant stand Morrisey solo dont know what it is... just gets on my t*ts really
January 17, 200718 yr How obsessed with Morrissey am I? I dont even know how to answer this. I screamed the lyrics to Panic in the middle of a restaurant when I was four years old (well, at least what I thought to be the lyrics). My room is basically a Moz shrine, its unhealthy, really.

Well it can only be a good thing :P He's one man who you could understand why people are obsessed with him as he did so much and influenced so many people. All my favourite bands now all say how much they were influenced by The Smiths and Morrissey :D Welcome to Buzzjack btw :cheer:
January 17, 200718 yr Thanks! All of the Smiths/Morrissey threads lurred me in... MELLLLLLLLL! MY MYSPACE MATE :dance: i'm Kyle from Manchester, remember me? :lol:
January 17, 200718 yr KYYYYYYY! Yes, it took me awhile to make the connection between the forum, audioscrobbler, and myspace... Edited January 17, 200718 yr by Melissa
January 18, 200718 yr I think I'm just a Smiths fan, not a Morrissey solo fan, although I really like some of his solo albuns. :)
