Spin Mag: The Queen Is Dead is the third most influential album in the last 25 years How about those Smiths, huh?...You gotta admire a guy who can rhyme 'rusty spanner' with 'play pianner' and who can espouse the beauty of a double-decker bus collision." U2's Actung Baby is number one, observed by some as a cause for angst, not celebration. ;)

It sparked a crisis in the automobile sector?
It generated a new strain of viral bird flu?
Governments fell?
Labour spawned monsters?
People fell in love?
Or perhaps indeed, TQID made sure no one ever attempted literary wit in a lyric anymore. Being dull and plain is now part of the game.
I would say it's influential enough if it changed the life of some, who take that album as a starting point for their own individual ways of measuring out time while heading towards that "unbreakable appointment".
Be it good or bad, right or wrong - important or simply meaningless.
Did it "touch" anyone?

that unigue stange man with flowers as singer,
a sound of their own
but Morrissey and Johnny were also infuenced, so
it's rhetorical , or a circle

who influenced a generation, other bands, a
prt of the circle
