Huh? Queen.......goth..............

Regardless, I fucking hate Queen. Queen and The Grateful Dead......two bands I hate more than U2 or The Smiths.

Queen was a great band with an incredible vocalist. The Smiths are beyond even rating.

Morrissey solo is better than the Smiths.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

No Johnny Marr. Morrissey might be singing better, but Johnny Marr was/is such a genius. As far as I'm concerned they were better together--with Rourkey and Joyce.

Sorry. You're wrong. Alain Whyte is five times the songwriter Johnny Marr was.

You need to keep quiet and just stand around looking beautiful. Nobody here loves you for your opinions.

The above could likewise be aimed at Morrissey himself. I never thought I'd see the day but I'm with Diva on this one :hitmyself: but Morrissey with Marr was different quality.

Marr is such a genius how come he couldn't he couldn't save this album?

Or any other album he has played on since? (Is there a gem I missed? And don't say Electronic.)

Hey, I like Mind Bomb. But when I said Morrissey with Marr was different quality, the same is also true of Marr with Morrissey.
