Alain and Jesse's songswriting style is different, very hard to say who is better.

Only if you're deaf.

Children In Pieces is dull as hell, and really doesn't seem to have anything to say - therefore I rarely never) listen to it.
My Dearest Love however is wonderful.

Love Drive-In Saturday too, but it's a pretty standard cover (even factoring in the brilliant David J mention lol)

my dearest love

by lots and lots.

My Dearest Love, although not an obvious Number One Hit, should have been a single.

 

[Dothatagain?]

"My Dearest Love" - one of the finest modern Moz songs.

*Waits for Houdini to start a couple of threads to we can place them in the Top 100*

My Dearest but I swear Children In Pieces grows on you after a few good plays.

You have your assignments*

'My dearest love', without doubt. Another great B-side ! The kind of song that should have been in an album... too nice to be just a B-side.

 

[someofusisturningnasty]

i still can't stop listening to My Dearest Love. I think it is beautiful and heartfelt and classic Moz. Ahhhh damn being at work, I want to hear it nowwww

 

[lottie]

My dearest love,

but i havent listened to either that much yet, but i did put this one on loop for a good while.

Although I like Children in pieces, My Dearest Love is an amazing song - music and lyrics - one of his best imo I love it

Well, My Dearest Love is better than Children In Pieces by miles. It sounds like a more relaxed Ganglord & the lyrics are very good.
I like Children In Pieces, there's some nice production on it, the lyrics are fairly intriuging but it's just not much of a tune.

BUT

There is one thing that makes Children In Pieces the winner in my eyes... it's available on cd while My Dearest Love isn't. If Morrissey and/or Decca thought it was a good idea to make that song vinyl only, then they didn't deserve a hit from All You Need Is Me.

Thinking of it now, I'm kind of a sucker for any of his tunes that include the piano. I wonder if that's what makes the song??

My dearest love...its just so beautiful and epic. One of his best.

ok, shame on me..I am disgusted with myself..I have no idea what those songs are.
Excuse me while I try to illegally download them somewhere and lower my head in shame.
