Not really - frontloads Side A with livelier songs, moves into a slower end of the side, then the last five all address Moz's relationship obsession at the time from a I Want The One I Can't Have to I'm Going To Die Alone And Unloved conclusion. Also the endings of most songs flow nicely into...
The biggest mistake Moz has always made is holding onto money like Scrooge McDuck. PAY YOUR WRITERS AND MUSICIANS. And if you do that, it'll be less likely that My Life Is An Endless Succession of People Saying Goodbye.
Kill Uncle can be quite good. I have a different running order that (just...
The whole thing stinks. Moz can issue a dozen paragraphs lamenting a dead nobody that only he cares about in 20 minutes .... yet says nothing about the fact he has - once again - fu ck ed over thousands of fans, many of whom are travelling enormous distances, claiming 'physical exhaustion' when...
One of the reasons Moz isn't as big as other legacy acts is that he doesn't do what others do. His setlists are perverse, you have no guarantee you'll hear any song - be it a massive hit or not, his shows are short compared to his once peers who average 2hrs 15 whilst he does 85 minutes. His...
100%. Moz had it all for the taking, but blew it by being awkward, obstructive, failing to play shows/tours he's been contracted to - such as NY/LA arena shows in 1994, and ducking out of The Bowie tour in 1995 - and generally deliberately avoiding what audiences wanted. If he'd taken the...
Moz has always over stated his own importance. The 2018 Arena tour sold pitifully with lots of unsold tickets. 2020 was slimmed down to two half-sold arenas.
I suspect Donnie's view was something like Ech, guitarists come and go and Moz has done FINE without you, and Alain may have been more of the view that Donnie, who hasn't been writing songs with Morrissey for 32 years, should show more respect to people.
I think Moz ascribing it to 'cancel culture' is nonsense. He's not got a great commercial appeal : the label probably thought they could maybe engineer a 2004-style career rebirth, then realised they probably couldn't make it happen. In my opinion they should just let him buy the record back and...
