If Morrissey had got his arse in gear for Record Store Day 2015 and delivered a retro-release of KMAL as a 7" vinyl it might have helped give it legs. Great song destroyed by lazy marketing and atrocious video FAIL! If he does get a new deal and a chance to re-issue/re-package WPINOYB, will he learn any lessons from these debacles? Don't hold your breath.

I assume he's in nostalgia mode and just ignoring the iTunes sales figures. If he just pretends it's still the heyday of physical product the world will conform to his fantasies. Yeah, right. Good luck with that one.

guys, the list is totally bogus.

The most important singer the all world....... DAVID BOWIE.
 
Re: Morrissey Singles UK - TTY

Exactly. Sometimes he's a pain in the arse, I know. But I like him.
He's got a talent. Liam is not as good as his big brother.

Just compare BE's albums to NG's and you'll see how wonderful NG is;

agreed. i was guessing the list was from 2010 to 2015 with the so far bit
 
Re: Morrissey Singles UK - TTY

it is somewhat interesting to see what this market is buying because its growing very very quickly. be curious to see if it stays a novelty

Yes, it's. The Bowie's Life on Mars is a picdisc released in 2013-14, I own one copy of it and it's nothing more than a way to catch our money.

well im guilty of that myself as my closet and storage space would attest.
 
The following article makes Morrissey's failure to release physical singles even more baffling. He could have his first UK #1 if he stopped trolling feminism with KMAL and actually did it justice with a good video and 7" release. Who cares about digital music files? They're just promo. Back to the future! People will always want to adorn their houses with Art. Vinyl singles are Art. Digital music files are....nothing.

If he's going to re-promote WPINOYB then he can get a vinyl master cut 7" with retro-nouveau sleeve and 7" onto the shelves. If people will pay £10 for a stencil, they'll surely pay £10 for a limited edition of 'KMAL' with b-sides. Most of the people listening on Spotify are just clueless consumers. They might provide a revenue stream for gigs but are now irrelevant to recorded music. f*** CD singles as well. Back to vinyl for the purists and the true hard-core patrons in the audience. Ignore the temporary 'fans' other than for flogging arena tickets. Etc.
