Something Awful - Your Band Sucks news briefs, March 28, 2004
David Thorpe mentions Morrissey's comments on American Idol and his upcoming album. There is a game where you can guess which tracklisting is real and which is fake. My personal favorite is "Jesus Won't Save You From Being a Bore".

Also included is a shout-out to Morrissey-Solo.

Excerpt:
--After a merciful seven-year absence, lugubrious Los Angeles stadium-filler Morrissey has decided to mope back into our lives with a new record entitled “You Are the Quarry.” Details of the tracklist have recently been announced and they’re certainly characteristic of the Mozzer, with the average song title tipping the scales at close to five words long. Here’s a fun little exercise: let’s see if you can pick out which of these tracklists is authentic and which one is false (since the devil mixes his lies with the truth, some real songs are in the fake one):

01. America Is Not the World
02. Irish Blood, English Heart
03. I Have Forgiven Jesus
04. Come Back to Camden
05. I'm Not Sorry
06. The World Is Full of Crashing Bores
07. How Could Anybody Possibly Know How I Feel?
08. The First of the Gang to Die
09. Let Me Kiss You
10. All the Lazy Dykes
11. I Like You
12. You Know I Couldn't Last
01. Oh Oscar, You Are A Dear
02. When Will I Find What I Need In This Life?
03. I’m Really Quite Displeased
04. How Dolly To Vada Your Eek
05. I’m Not Sorry
06. No Good Shall Come Of It
07. The Scoundrels in Political Office
08. The First of the Gang to Die
09. You Will Realize My Love Someday
10. All the Lazy Dykes
11. Jesus Won’t Save You From Being A Bore
12. How Truly Dreadful

In related news, Morrissey has voiced his displeasure at American Idol in a recent interview on LA’s KROQ radio station, saying of the contestants: "I think they’re very sad and I feel sorry, genuinely sorry for them. I think they look a bit sad and they sound sad and they’re treated in a sad way… and I think it’s very unfortunate." Morrissey calling you sad? Ouch! My apologies go out in advance to the folks at morrissey-solo.com, who have even as I write this already gotten wind of its existence through the magical Morrissey ether and pronounced it “dreadfully boring.”

    does he really have a song named "All the Lazy Dykes" or is it just one of the fake ones?
    WOW that'd be a very interesting song to hear from Moz... i mean "all the lazy dykes" yikes! that's the kind of song you end up writing after a couple of years in California!

      Although I am a huge fan of the "Mozzer" - it's sometimes funny to poke fun at some of his quirks and idiosyncrasies. For this, I commend Something Awful. If you've never read the Cliff Yablanski (sp?) section, you're missing out on the profiles of your fellow Moz fans!
