Fangs for the memory - The Sun

And Morrissey?

I think he’s a brilliant lyricist. His evolution as a songwriter is amazing – he’s charted all the various stages of his life and career in an honest and thought-provoking way.

He could’ve made a career out of eulogising British working class youth but he was the first to realise that his life was not static – his songs are an amazing map of his own bizarre life-arc.

  • Torr, this compliments so well your report from the Telegraph (on which the 'add comment' section seemed to be disabled). The power of the songs is something like how Willie Russell described what Sheelagh Delaney conjured up with 'A Taste of Honey': - "joyous melancholy'.
