Where do I fit? Am I to Love it or hate it?

[Donald Farfrae]

I have not heard the stream as I pre-ordered from Amazon Canada which doesn't offer the promotion. And I'd like to ask those of you who've heard the album to help me understand where I fit: whether I should wait for the album or cancel my order for the time being.

If you answer, keep this in mind: I'm crazy in love with Dear God Please Help Me; lukewarm about Life Is A Pigsty; have little use for You Have Killed Me, though it's certainly catchy enough, I know; and I see 'Far Off Places' as possibly the worst song Morrissey's ever done, with thrown-together melodies, impenetrable lyrics, and useless guitars. I think this half-baked rock song was placed on the album (as track #1) simply to create a stark, comical juxtaposition with the classical cover art.

I'm thinking of cancelling my order and buying 3 country & western albums from the 70s and 80s by a gal named Emmylou Harris, no joke! She averages at least 4 nice songs per album. On the plus side with Moz, I was thrilled to see a single release of YHKM including all 3 b-sides and have pre-ordered that as well.

Well what say you? In which camp do I belong?

You're teaTering on the edge of the Dolly Parton caMp..

nycjim, I'm sorry I was so rude. Your opinion is entirely valid, though people like you are so lame...

I know, it's quite frightening when I think of it.

 

[darKest staR]

Well at least you'll get a good handful....

and Dolly's CD's always come in handy when you want to ward off unwanted guests...

Forget Dolly. I don't care for boobs; I prefer tits.

I just like artist I like to change, try new things, develop.... even if that means they misstep now and then.

 

[darKest staR]

Yeah, you can't beat a 'great tit'...

BreZZams!!!

A few more of that quality and all your (alleged) transgressions will have to be forgiven.

I really am sorry fer using the f word on you; I'm an impulsive dickhead for sure. But you totally misfired in imagining me as a ridged traditionalist or something; I don't remember the last time I listened to Viva Hate. I'm thrilled that Morrissey can branch out / spread his wings, spread his legs to get at the kegs, whatever, I just don't connect to 3 of the 4 leaked tracks and am surprised and concerned...

Again, I'm a twat for the language...
