Stereogum, a terrific music blog I check daily, noted the tracklisting from Morrissey's forthcoming album today and commented, "Moz song titles are always amusing to peruse because they tend to be excessively lengthy and morbid." The post ended with a request for readers' "best fake Morrissey song titles". Some of their suggestions were pretty amusing with tongues tucked firmly in cheek and worth a look if you have five seconds to spare.

Have a laugh at some false ROTT song titles suggested by the U.S. Press:

Pop Candy - USA Today

Songwriters of the world unite
The only thing more entertaining than the track list for Morrissey's next album is the 100+ fake Morrissey song titles submitted by Stereogum readers.

Among the real Moz titles: Life is a Pigsty, You Have Killed Me and I'll Never Be Anybody's Hero Now. Among the false ones: My Enemies Are All I Have Left and I Wear Slacks on the Outside Because Slacks Are How I Feel on the Inside. (I don't know what it means, either, but it made me laugh out loud. Slacks are always funny!)

A lot of people have been asking questions about the Manchester venues. I'm from Manchester and I'm happy to give some information regarding the venues and the Morrissey disco which is on the same weekend as the concerts!

SALFORD Lowry (in Manchester) - set in a stunning location, in a gorgeous new theatre/hall/art gallery complex near Manchester United's football ground. Usually classical concert and avant-garde plays take place here. Will probably be seated and civilised.

MANCHESTER Apollo - will be the most energetic of all these gigs. A big moshpit down the front, and all standing downstairs. Can get quite sweaty and heaving in this area. There are balconies too with seating only. An older venue that tends to attract livelier crowds.

MANCHESTER Opera House - very bizarre choice. Gorgeous old-fashioned interior, usually houses musicals such as Miss Saigon, Les Miserables, etc. Only seating. This will be interesting.

MANCHESTER Bridgewater Hall - even more bizarre. Almost always only has classical concerts. Acoustics are fantastic. Morrissey's voice will sound excellent here, but also only seating in this very modern and architecturally-beautiful building.

MORRISSEY DISCO - as many of you know, the Morrissey disco in Manchester is held the first Friday of every month - this coincides with the May dates (the 6th I think, or 7th). Entry is v. cheap, and the venue is always packed. Its at the Star and Garter near Piccadilly train station. Great atmosphere, but entry is only permitted if you sing the Sister I'm A Poet backwards whilst standing on one knee (just kidding).
