When he'll admit he loves Kate Bush.
Oh yeah. I'd like to see that.
By the way, has he ever mentioned her at all? I always wondered what he thinks about Kate Bush, since he likes Kristeen so much.
In the Robert Mackie letters (1980/81) he said her voice was "such trash!". I've never believed him for a second...
Oh damn. I don't think I believe him either. Just like when he said he didn't like the Ramones (in the late 70's?) and now he does.
And he never mentioned her after that?
Is it just me or has the vitality gone from this site after the banning of VivaHate!.
Hey Flax, in that picture below, is that Mary, the virgin mother of Christ? And is that a spliff she holds in her holy hands? And tell me, would the mother of christ have decent weed?I will feel the same way about daytime TV when Jerry Springer and Maury are gone.

I haven't heard anything about him mentioning her after that, no. It was well before "Hounds of Love" came out though, so he may well have changed his opinion. He was a nobody when the letters were written, so I think he may just have been envious of Kate's success.
Kate Bush is absolutely flipping awful. The worst singing voice of all time. Morrissey was absolutely right about her.
I've seen some of her TV appearences recently and they are just horrible. But she's one of a depressingly large number of bands/acts who no-one is allowed to criticise - if they dare to, it must be because they have their own agenda e.g. jealousy of their success!
Other people in this category include Radiohead, The Elbow, The White Stripes, Polly J Harvey and many, many more. Emperors without clothes, the lot of them.
I like finding out stupid details. Like what cookies he likes or his favorite shampoo.
Me too! I was just thinking I like finding out the little, (but not really gossipy) details about him. Although that is interesting too.
I love Kate to pieces (the title track of The Kick Inside is a masterpiece), but I'm not going to open that debate because it's not really relevant. The confusion arises because Morrissey said he hated Kate Bush, yet he loves Kristeen Young - who is basically a diluted copy of her! It doesn't make sense .
I'd take Kate Bush any day over Kristeen's painful yelping and screeching. Listening to her for a matter of seconds makes me feel murderous.
