    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 247: YOU WERE GOOD IN YOUR TIME

    Bit dull, really. A shame, because a slow song with little music can really work well for Moz, but even compared to something like "Dear God, Please Help Me", this falls far short. And while I appreciate a bit of experimental weirdness, on every listening after the first, the last two minutes...

    Best Morrissey album of the decade

    Ringleader. The most mature album, and the most cohesive album. It demands you listen to the whole thing. Quarry is four good singles and a lot of filler, and Refusal is a few truly great moments, but more that are average.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 245: ONE DAY GOODBYE WILL BE FAREWELL

    Modern Morrissey by-the-numbers, really. 6/10.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 244: WHEN LAST I SPOKE TO CAROL

    A beauty! Possibly the best song on the album, and one of his best of the decade.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 243: BLACK CLOUD

    It's all right. Has some nice moments. But pretty standard modern Moz stuff. 6.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 242: MAMA LAY SOFTLY ON THE RIVERBED

    LOVE this. Pounding music, great lyrics, great vocals. One of the best of recent times.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 241: Something Is Squeezing My Skull

    "Something is squeezing my SKULL!" Great fun, good opener for the album. Love the "HRT, ECT, How long must I stay on this stuff?" section. 8/10.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 240: BECAUSE OF MY POOR EDUCATION

    Pretty average b-side. Pleasant to listen to, but nothing special. 6/10.

    How do you feel about Kill Uncle?

    When "Mute Witness" is an album highlight, you know you're in trouble. ;) I don't think it's terrible, but there are a few really bad songs on it ("Asian Rut", "Camera Eye"), and its highs really aren't that high. When I want to put a Morrissey album on, I just tend to forget this one exists...

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 237: MY DEAREST LOVE

    I've been a fan since 2006. I gave "Boy With The Thorn" a 10, "On The Streets I Ran" a 6, "Why Don't You Find Out For Yourself" a 10 and "My Dearest Love" a 10. So where do I fit into the theory? ;) Simple fact is, I love the song. Lyrically it's short, but not slight - it has the same...

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, APPENDIX: CHILDREN IN PIECES

    I think you might be right. I can think of a few YoR songs which could be contenders. One thing these threads are missing so far - where's Comtesse? Always enjoyed her comments on the songs.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, APPENDIX: CHILDREN IN PIECES

    I'll be disappointed if My Dearest Love doesn't make it.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, APPENDIX: CHILDREN IN PIECES

    Well, after a quick calculation, this one certainly isn't going to be a threat to the top 100 ... :eek: Thanks so much for doing this again, Houdini! Looking forward to updating the "Top 100" playlist on my iPod. :D

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 236: DRIVE-IN SATURDAY

    A brilliant Bowie single, and Mozzer's version of it is pretty good. 8.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, APPENDIX: CHILDREN IN PIECES

    I gave it a 7. It chugs along nicely, if a bit blandly, but then really picks up with "my sentimental heart hardens". And I just want to say - how brilliant to have these polls back!

    People booing after Morrissey left the stage

    Always be careful When you abuse the one you love The hour or the day, no one can tell But one day goodbye will be farewell And you will never see the one you love again Maybe a lesson to be learnt from this. :p

    Morrissey DISAPPROVES solo singles 1988-1995 vinyl box sets & 3CD set release (TTY)

    Re: Morrissey DISAPPROVES solo singles 1988-1995 vinyl box sets & 3CD set release (TT The "expanded" Maladjusted also has all those Rare Tracks b-sides, and also has "Sorrow Will Come in the End" for those in the UK. You'd also need the expanded You Are the Quarry for a couple more b-sides...
