Yes, the poetry is not there. That is what many of us fell in love with. The clean, sharp, phrases of the past are for the most part not present in his recent work.
One example I can think of that's recent of a song having poetry is "The Father Who Must Be Killed." Following are some...
I agree that disagreement is more interesting on a forum. It would be nice, however, if people could express themselves in a less offensive way than the poster in question did.
As for the song: Even though I love it, I have to admit that the lyrics sound a bit commonplace. They are not...
I agree that Morrissey writes about the same topics over and over, but I like the new songs very much.
For a love that never comes
From somoene who does not exist
and
that's how people grow up.
I think lyrics are great, really.
But, yes, Boz and the others need to get more...
This is a hard one, to pick from all of Morrissey and The Smiths. So many inspirational lyrics to choose from.
The passing of time leaves empty lives
Waiting to be filled
The passing of time
Leaves empty lives
Waiting to be filled
Im here with the cause
Im holding the torch
In the...
Good Looking Man About Town. I think this song has been sorta overlooked. Some of the lyrics are just beautiful, eg "the dream becomes sand in my hands."
I find it funny and telling that people's opinions differ so widely. For example, people calling I Just Want to See the Boy Happy, I Just Want to Be Crappy or whatever. I think it's one of the best songs on the album and certainly the best single from the album. I also think The Father Who...
When I first read the note on TTY, I didn't think much of it. Moz has said things like this many times. "We may never meet again because I fear we might all be blown up" from the Santiago 2004 boot comes to mind. He also talks about his own death being imminent in ROTT--"now, in the final...
Hi
A while ago I downloaded this show, but never decompressed it. Now I am trying to and I am getting asked for a password. Any idea what it could be? The bootleg was made by someone who goes by "igotmixamatosis". (Yes, I tried that as the password.)
Thanks.
Because I fell into an awful depression for the last few weeks, I have not yet gotten a recorder. Since the show is postponed, I now have another chance to get one before the Baltimore show. My question is, how many GB do you need to record an entire show? Forgive me if that is a stupid...
I regret saying what I did about Sawfish. In my defense, all I knew about this guy was that he has all the shows from this tour and isn't sharing any of em. Unlike some of you, I have a life outside Morrissey, and don't spend all my time wandering these boards and picking up info on the...
