Quote: bren2k "I feel the same way; much like Radiohead, it's easy to label them as miserable - but if you actually listen to Morrisey's lyrics, his arch, kitchen sink writing style contains a fair amount of humour - albeit delivered with an arrogant sneer, which understandably es a lot of people off. For me, the greatest lyricist of his generation, if only for this line
I used to love The Smiths, despite taking flak from workmates etc for doing so - but find it very difficult to listen to them or any of Morrissey's solo stuff , not since he came out for Britain First.
I always thought he was on my side, and the side of the 'outsider' for want of a better word. Turns out he's a fascist sympathiser. Feels like a betrayal, and personal to boot.
He's dead to me now.
