  • It's weird to think that Moz may have basically turned into a hermit if Johnny Marr Had'nt ever knocked on his door and said I'm going to play guitar over this shit. Moz put out one demo and went back home to his mums flat with his big James Dean & Elvis posters, funny. Also, it takes a genius like Marr to take really dense lyrics like Moz's and come up with what he did. If you never heard a note, only the words, would the accompanying music come to mind?

  • The intensity that made it work probably meant it couldn't last, but you can't help wonder about the songs that got away as a result. Almost criminal really. The Smiths, just 4 years, yet Coldplay currently sit at about ten..............don't tell me there is a god!

  • @Flowerblood He did, I think the other lad just got a bit carried away.

  • @DEADHEROS81 I was always under the impression that Morrissey put words to the music.

  • @gcrubber

    What a dare to even name Coldplay in the same sentence as The Smiths...

  • @DEADHEROS81 as I've read it, Marr would give Moz a cassette with music and *then* Moz would put the lyrics down...

  • how does one make themself look like johnny marr in this?

  • fucks sake, marr is just too cool for words

  • @Macko1968 I recant, i recant, I realised this shortly after my rage black out subsided, then an air guilt, embarrassment and renunciation fell upon my quite rightly. Thank you for instigating this revision Mr Macko... you are quite just. Clearly I am very defensive of my beloved deity. I've learned a lot about myself.

  • @Howieeeeex

    I think he meant "dense" as in deep, with a lot going on in them. Not dense as in "thick".

  • look up 'greatest lyricists ever' in google and look what comes up FIRST,, fucking hell people are thick and the one s that 'like'd need to stop such conformist sheep.
