I'd like to dedicate the next two entries to Boo Boo.
I was thinking of you when I wrote these man :thumb:
No matter where I go i'm always surrounded by these f uckers.
For years I dare not listen to the Smiths for fear of turning into one of these bores. I think liking the Smiths still has a stigma attached to it even now. Whenever someone announces to me they love The Smiths my first thought is 'uhoh....Morrissey fanboy.'
Quite honestly i'm bored of having him shoved in my face and being forced to accept him as the new Oscar Wilde. These people seem to think if his royal Morrisseyness says something witty then that automatically makes it 100 time more witty than it actually is. Then there's the really annoying 'ooh cheeky......' sexual ambiguousness with seeming straight men suddenly acting more camp than a row of tents at the mere mention of his name.
This always seems to affect people between the ages of say 16 to about 22 , I've met quite a few older than that but tend to try and move on to something else , but it'll still be there lurking underneath , but mostly this phenomenon goes hand in hand with irritating students.
As for his material I can take it or leave it. I don't mind The Smiths but I think there were a lot better and interesting bands around at the time. I think a lot of credit should go to the band for still managing to appeal to me in spite of the massive number of pricks they seem to attract.
As for his solo stuff. I don't think it's anywhere near as good as the fanboys make out. I think the reason he's got so many plaudits for his recent stuff is because he's a familiar name from the past and he's actually making an effort. I think he's getting good reviews for not sucking rather than actually being good.
Aaaaaand let the deluge of abuse commence ... :D |
