    cos no one ever turns to me to say ...
  • "A pre-Britpop landmark and absolute necessity". So true. Although Morrissey was given no credit when the "Brit pop" exploded in the UK - the press just simply ignored him at the time, it was all about Blur & Oasis.

    Bona Drag re-issue has had some very positive reviews in this month's UK music mags (Mojo, Uncut & Q). Mainly 4 out of 5.

  • oct 4,monday, so tuesdays in the Netherlands
    the 5th [ordered]

    or what this deluxe edition, a CDr with the video of the singles? released on 20 or was it 19
    or 26 oct, anyway, it's not clear

    don't panic, it's me

    the singles,well most of them are on Hulmerist
    so no need to buy it for the video's

    last time I write Morrissey missed an oportunity
    to get it more special with some live songs from that period,most of them played at the kill uncle tour 1991

    next year it's 20 years Kill Uncle, so...

  • .... 'Bona Drag' first came out- freshman year. I didnt have a car so I had to walk over a mile to get to the one cd shop in town. That's what you get when you go to school in a small town in Indiana. Anyway, I was so unhappy that 1) there was only one new track on the cd and 2)great tracks like 'Sister I'm a Poet' and 'Girl Least Likely To' were left off the cd. Looking back, however, it was a good collection and I still think it's the best Morrissey solo collection cd. Much better than 'Hits' or any of the others. Yes, I will buy it again but I won't walk to get it this time. I'll buy it off itunes ;)
