Oh, I havent got one And if a double-decker bus Crashes into us To die by your side Is such a heavenly way to die And if a ten-ton truck Kills the both of us To die by your side Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine Oh, there is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 We were going to go to that! But we didn't in the end. Big fan, I've got every Smiths and Morrissey album. Not keen on the latest album though. He's even more up himself than he was before - and that's saying something. If you like M do you also like Billy Bragg? He did an even worse thing, last time I went to see him he played the whole gig with none of his own songs - only Woody Guthrie ones! -- Jake I will not change and I will not be nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlotte Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 I thought you'd be going actually. I wasn't that impressed. It was lush to see him in the flesh and he is gorgeous but he did most of the new album, which i'm not keen on. And the encore was only one song, which was Irish Blood, English Heart. We did meet some 'diamond' pompey geezers afterward though dawwn the Guild'all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 That's "daan na Gild'all" if you don't mind TBH I didn't know he was on until this week and it all seemed like too much hassle to sort out - true sign you're getting old. What did the pompey mooshes make of your 'Wi Eye Pet" accents? (Do you both have that Boro accent?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlotte Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 There were touts outside the gig selling tickets man, that's lazy. But actually we just walked in to the side door and we didn't even get our tickets checked! No, only Mike's from the Boro, i'm from Farnham. I've been putting up with Pompey louts for years now.

Charlotte Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 I can't see how The Smiths, a revolutionary new sound for it's time is talentless. Just my opinion mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 It's a once in a lifetime gig though no?How so? I think if you've seen him before then seeing him now would be sure to disappoint. He should retire before he starts playing to working mens clubs. He was great once, and made me consider becoming a vegetarian for 3 mins, but he's past his sell by date. Sorry to say.

Well i'm only 25 so i was too young the first time round. It was seeing a legend for me. I'm sure i would've been disappointed but i loved the last album.

jamesmark Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 Yeah I thought that once, when I hadn't actually listened to the albums - I just went by first impressions of the sound. Then I realised how wrong I was. i have listened to a few songs but admit not the whole album and was not impressed, rather turned off actually,but everyones taste is different, the only album that has done it for me this year when i bought it was james blunt, i thought that was a marvelous album but its only got 10 songs on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesmark Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 James Blunt needs to die, sorry not my cup of tea. everybody has tastes but i must admit he is mine at the moment, as its a break from the norm and the "not already been done before" sort of music IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKEYmark Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 i love the smiths and morrissey.i got into them by accident.first album i heard was (strageways here we come only 35 mins long) then i bought the smiths best for 50p on cd and since then been into them.there is a light that never goes out is a fave of mine.also like Every Day Is Like Sunday.people keep telling me when you listen to the smith you want to go kill yourself.to me i just want to sing and they make me happy. has anyone got any original smiths or morressey dvd`s i have a smiths ones but its a bit crap mainly top of the pops type videos. was wondering if you can get the original videos. im getting into coldplay at the min got X&Y and Parachtes mp3 albums on phone also simple minds and the beatles albums Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 Agree with you totally Mark, the Smiths are one of my favourite bands, got all the albums and live concert recordings I can find As you say great to sing along to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 The Smith were ace. Solo Morrissey hasn't done it for me. Pity he only played for an hour. Bet the tickets weren't cheap either. Last time time I saw my fave band, Fugazi, they played about two and a half hours on each of the three nights and tickets were £7. Up the Punks! But James Blunt on the other hand. Where would one start? Probably with kneecapping him and working ones way upwards. "sing now, biatch" as his teeth get drilled out. Still fair play to him. He has introduced some new ryming slang into modern usage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
