I don’t think i’ve ever heard a single Morrissey song, so i think i’m nailing the ignoring him part.
Heaven knows he’s a miserable human being now
They don’t find him such a charming man anymore.
I’m still hoping that he exits stage 30m off ground, I know, I know it’s serious.
“Ignore me,” he pleaded constantly since 1991, unable to understand that we really did want him to shut the fuck up and go away.
Given that it seems like he’s been quite publicly problematic for a while now, I’m surprised she ever agreed to record the vocals for him in the first place. Unless she did it a very long time ago, I don’t know what’s changed.
There’s very little here that surprises from Johnny Marr’s singer.
I would guess she (or perhaps one of her managers) didn’t do the due diligence, and also this might have been for some “assorted artists” side compilation or similar. However it happened, good on her for correcting it.
Oh I wanna play too:
Stop Me If You Think You’ve Heard My Shit Before
Last of the Racist International Assholes
Some Jerks Are Bigger Than Others
There Is a Prat Who Never Shuts Up
Why would she record it in the first place? He’s been racist for years.
I can see Morrissey’s point; I mean, what contribution did Johnny Marr ever make to the success of the Smiths?
Wait for it…
The second half of Louder Than Bombs—starting with “Ask”—is some good stuff if you’re into that kind of thing
Too bad Moz turned out to be such a shit IRL
That kind of thing does happen.
So, who is this guy anyway?
