Ah, maybe chill out a little?
I'll take some clumsy and cute covers from youtubers over the highly polished grandeur of mostly god awful covers we've had over the years. I have absolutely no interest in hearing Morrissey's words from a singer who has no idea what they're singing. To me it's more authentic to hear a fan sing a Morrissey/Smiths song albeit rough and raw.
Mate, I'm chilled as can be. I'm actually sat here smocking a big joint. If I was anymore chill id be a f***ing Polar bear .
To clear something up. Often when im on here, which is far from every day. Its usually when im either waiting for a client at work ,when my daughter has a tv show /film i do not like on TV
or when im at home, listening to M and getting my high on .
Im not on hete to piss people off and shif like that. Im not a hater .
I am never "shocked " or "angry " by M or anything anyone says on here .
I don't ever feel "let down " by M either.
He is who he is. He has done well
The issue I have with stuff is mainly I think M could do better- in terns of the players in the band and his lyrics and his covers . His art .
but what the f*** ever .
Who am I to judge ?
The point here is I think he deserves to be respected and considered Important. I think he is one the best ever .
I think his music is balls to the floor brilliant. I think live when he is on form he pisses over all of em - yes including Bowie , Suede and the Stone Roses and Joy Division.
But he is doing himself and the fans a disservice by selling himself short with Fonia and this BS by Gary Barlow, his nephew
He isn't gonna get a record deal with this stuff and its pointless. The covers are crap. Most music acts have fans who do covers, so its hardly special .
I think the killers and other big acts are just as much "real fans " as these everyday people .
Most people who cover
Smiths or M songs do so as fans. They would get more cred and a bigger audience covering other songs by other acts
Enjoy your weekend
