Agree, this single wasn't as great as it should have been. Any great song is more than the sum of its parts - that extra 'magic' is needed. And this single just doesn't have it. All the component parts are there - but it just never really hits the mark.

Never been a big fan of The Who. I do love Substitute though. Great song.

It may be some time before we get any 'news' on Moz Central, so we may need to keep ourselves amused...What song, written or performed by another artist or artists, would you most like to hear Morrissey sing as a cover version? I think we would all have loved to have heard Bowie and Morrissey do...

Whatever caused the fire - the destruction of Notre Dame was deeply symbolic on so many levels. Perhaps poetically so. The national riots in France of 2023 more prosaically so. Victor Hugo in his great novel, Notre Dame of Paris, called the cathedral a national icon of France. And perhaps the...

One of the funniest TV moments of the decade. Comedy gold.

My post was calm, reasonable, and factual. Your response was emotional. Funny that. Have a great day too - and beware of those pesky right wingers.

To see what is driving the trans industry, look no further than what has happened to our food. Who wants the boring old food that nature has given us - let's create an ultra-processed version. Who wants a boring old human body - we can give you an ultra-processed version of that too. The new...

Pun intended, follow the Money... https://www.spiked-online.com/2023/02/05/dr-john-money-and-the-sinister-origins-of-gender-ideology/

I think you have described why Christianity became so popular. There is also something very childlike about religions like Christianity and Islam. The Gospels are powerful 'brain worm' fairy tales. Goebbels could never have dreamt up better propaganda. And Islam is all about certainty. No need...

The song doesn't mention Muslims. Only you have done that. Billy Bragg did indeed change the lyrics of one of his songs to push gender ideology. He is also active on Twitter attacking JK Rowling. Many would describe JK Rowling as expressing sane, common sense views on this subject, and the...

Depends what you mean by 'bonkers'. Some people might argue that pop stars promoting the bodily mutilation of children in the name of gender ideology is pretty 'bonkers'. It's all relative. Ultimately Notre Dame invites people to question the mainstream narrative. That is a good thing. Not a...

Yes, I'm with you on that. Man Who Sold the World and Hunky Dory definitely Bowie at his best. Although I do also love Station to Station. Dripping with occult pre-occupations, of course, as is Black Star. I referenced those pre-occupations of Bowie to demonstrate that Notre Dame really isn't...

Not sure what you mean. Notre Dame is a catchy, funky pop tune that beats anything on Never Let Me Down, which is undoubtedly Bowie's worst album. I would love to hear Notre Dame on the radio - although it would probably cause some cars to veer off the road and crash. May have to be played with...

Glory Glory Hallelujah!

Really quite disingenuous of the NME the way that is written. It is obvious that the singer hasn't said anything or expressed any thoughts about Morrissey's views.
