this documentary was obviously made by people who had no interest in the smiths music what so ever.. Never thought that a documentary about the smiths could be this uninspiring

[Novacoma]

The 10% clause was such bs. Rourke's basslines among other things are an integral part of the smiths sound, they couldnt have just been anyone else's. This is where U2 were clever, they were told by their manager at the first contract signing, split everything 4 ways, never question it. Lo and behold, it's still the same guys in the band today. Morrissey is such a C. You wrote the lyrics, did the singing, were the image, yeah and without the music behind you that would have amounted to NOTHING.

who is singing "there is a light that never goes out" at the begining?

[Morris Jackson]

Joyce is quite handsome now.

Mike Joyce seems the soundest one out of all of them.

Yeah, whatever you say. You can have Morrissey. And Rollins. And a perverse delusion. R.I.P. John Peel. He was more important than The Smiths.

[mfromthetrain]

Listen more carefully, that is Henry Rollins!

[eric crawford]

Morrissey can eat a vegetarian wiener, if they exist. Rollins can just eat cock, I don't consider myself a fan of either, by the way. If ANYONE from Salford is named Hector, I'll eat a wiener. If the cash is in dollars.

Henry Rollins can eat a wiener! I'm not defending Morrissey by the way. Morrissey can eat a wiener too!!! And this is coming from a Black Flag and Smiths fan...
