          Why do so many of the singers' in American bands out right now sound exactly alike?

          This guy sounds just like all the others out right now.

          Whatever happened to originality?

          whether you like them or not, it's a bit ridiculous to start lambasting a band that's been around more than a decade simply because they decided to cover a morrissey song, particularly when it is readily apparent that the previous posters are not at all familiar with the band in question.......

          Covering a Morrissey song, and why do I say true fan.

          1. Wiltern in Los Angeles 2004 concert Davy Havok from AFI was in line just like everone else.
          2. He did not take advantage that he is pretty famous to JUMP THE LINE TO THE FRONT, or even get backstage
          3. He comfirmed to me that he is INDEED a big Morrissey fan, "yes I'm a Morrissey fan too"

          AFI is a great band, and im very happy they are covering a moz track. Davey Havoc of AFI has MOZ surrounded by hearts on his wrist.

                    Has anyone who lashed out against the song acutally heard it? I for one think its an excellent cover.
