[Malarkey]

I only really know them for their death discs - which is slightly inappropriate at the moment, but fitting otherwise.

 

[Vesper Nocturne]

 

[Anonymous]

The original source of the phrase uttered on the intro video of every Morrissey show of the past couple of decades: "When I say I'm in love, you best believe I'm in love L-U-V!"

 

[Sid Luckman]

Amazing band - and this track REALLY gives me the same vibes as 'I've Changed My Plea to Guilty'. I wonder if it was an influence?

 

[DagenhamDan]

 

[ZOOM FROM GLOOM]

PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE

 

[TheSmiths_1985]

I only really know them for their death discs - which is slightly inappropriate at the moment, but fitting otherwise.

… What? The post is not about you.

 

[ZOOM FROM GLOOM]

Another favorite of mine has always been this little number …

 

[The Wild Turkey]

Mary is still influencin' folks to this day.
Marco Polo just flipped her voice from Walking In The Sand.

 

[j*e*t]

Fabulous girl group. Love this one Out in the Streets, which Blondie covered beautifully and The New York Dolls covered at Morrissey's Meltdown Festival.

 

[Thewlis]

Indeed! Definitely Moz must have been aware, it is very similar

Johnny Marr just a couple of months ago:
“I listened to the Shangri-Las and thought, Holy shit, this is weird music! So much more interesting than the New Wave British bands that my age group were supposed to be coming around to. It also appealed to my sense of elitism. There were minor chords. And those chord changes.” https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2023/11/27/johnny-marr-loves-his-axes

 

[Gaylord Deepstar]

Get a grip. Nobody cares.

 

[The Seeker of Good Songs]

As Morrissey once penned, "My life is an endless succession of people saying goodbye..."

 

[SweetnTenderYorkshireman]

Not official Moz of course but…

R.I.P

 

[celibate]

Godspeed Mary Weiss.
