Of course, I don't agree with his comments on Moz. But if you want to know who Neil is, check out at "Liberation", "Promenade" and "A Short Album About Love", and you will realise that he is without any doubt one of the best lyricist of the 90's. Plus, take a look at his cover version of "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out"... really lovely!

So what if Neil doesn't care for Morrissey's solo
work? He is still an awesome musician in his own
right, and is entitled to his own opinion. Don't
be so quick to slag someone off; it's not like he
said "Moz is @#!!!e" or anything. And if you don't
know anything about him, check out "A Secret
History" his just-released "best of" compilation.
Any Morrissey fan worth his/her own salt should be
able to appreciate Neil Hannon's wit,
intelligence, humor, etc.

Umm... I actually do like the Divine Comedy, but I don't know if I could say with a straight face that the lyrics are that tremendous... They're certainly fun to listen to, but... um, silly, maybe, is the watchword? A teaser...
"I met a girl, she was a frog princess
Yes I should admit it now
But how was I to know with just one kiss
My frog would turn into a ... cow?"That might be a few words off, but you get my point. He's worth listening to, though.

The not so divine comedy more like, with his horrendous sub-Scott Walker voice, smug bishop son pretending-to-be-affectionately-parodying-the-upper-class persona, and as for the music - ugh! "National Express" is unquestionably the worst single of the year, really fowl and patronising making Blur even sound sincere and with uber-geek punchable features to boot - argh!!!Ok, so he was Moz-influenzad, so are Shed 7, Marion and countless other hopeless losers. Jarvis Cocker is soo much better. Plus desecrating the best song of all time ain't a wise move either. Only a fool would try and cover that song. The only way it would work is if it was given a lo-fi treatment by Low or something.
