[kj] The Smiths

[Jim Harper]

Morrissey can indeed be a dick, when he's on form, his lyrics can be either hilarious or heartbreaking. And Marr's a fine guitarist.


And here's 'Paint A Vulgar Picture' ("Best of! Most of! Satiate the need/slip them into different sleeves/buy both and feel deceived")

I know…last day of the universe and I’m listening to The Smiths...took me by surprise too. 
 
I used to have the same visceral hatred of Morrissey, I remember watching music videos on telly as a kid, whenever he came on it was a fate worse than death…but now I think some of The Smiths’ songs are shit hot. Not least because Jonny Marr is a great guitarist…and Morrissey does make me laugh.

I’ve never once heard The Smiths mentioned on the Gathering…I’m digging the hell out of them right now.
