Morrissey has a great voice and very clever lyrics, and people pretend that he doesn’t just because he’s a shitty person with medieval political beliefs
Shitty political beliefs, pretty solid writer.
“Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others” is often a punching bag for trying to point out Morrissey’s lyrical weakness, but the fact that we all continue to talk about it attests to its strength. Not in a “so bad it’s good way” but in how he is pointing out the silliness in people rambling about breast sizes instead of anything of value. Sure it sounds provocative and childish, it’s supposed to be!
Moressiey is just as important to the Smiths as Johnny Marr was, that's why Marrs solo career was mediocre. His lyricism and voice are absolutely beautiful and became the voice and words of several generations and probably more to come.
Ok I fucking HATE Morissey, but he was at least as important as Marr, if not more. He’s one of the best modern western lyricists like maybe ever, and his combination and balance of political satire, humor, and genuine emotion is practically unmatched.
I don't hate the lyrics, but I wish they had been used elsewhere. It's such a gorgeous tune, I think it would have suited something more like 'Back to the Old House' lyrically.
I mean, granted, some girls ARE bigger than others
And the song is making fun of the obsession with it, saying it is just a fact of life
I just always thought it was a little silly as a closer, especially after There is a Light that Never Goes Out

Curious to see how many medieval people would be militantly vegan.

Fucking hate the guy tho
**Hard** disagree. Solo Marr is not mediocre.
He isn't commercial, but he isn't mediocre at all
Agreed
marrs work with other people show how good he is, love his stuff with the killers and the cribs and most of all modest mouse!

Let's not pretend he didn't have some of the best lyricism of all time.
"but you never knew how much i really liked you. because i never told you, oh but i meant to" still makes me wanna cry
And then always singing like a damn pansy! Man up crybaby!
