After all these years, I'm still struck by Moz's superior songwriting skills. There's simply no one that does it so well.

How long until drunkenness sets in? It's my birthday and 'the best of life is but intoxication'...

Received a gift voucher for Amazon so I bought all of Nietzsche's works. A very angry man indeed.

I burst into public baths....

Not only is this Brian fellow as deep as a paper plate (his quip about pizza is just a piece of a Mt. Everest of evidence mounted against him.) he is completely clueless about Morrissey and the Smiths. I listened to 3 tracks by his band and besides being laughable; they are awesomely bad. I must...

In the Robert Mackie pen-pal letters, Moz also expresses a dislike for (amongst others): Kate Bush, Duran Duran, Gary Numan, and Adam Ant. They can be read here: http://torr.typepad.com/weblog/2008/01/moz-penpal-lett.html

Re-listening to Vauxhall & I and am struck and reminded of Moz's superior songwriting skills. He's just about the best I've come across and I've come across many Pretenders (that includes the band of the same name.) Beware!

Yeah! How dare people not consciously break the law when someone asks them to.

All I do in life is drift.....so, that. and laundry

Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me. Genesis 4:14

I came across this film: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panic_in_the_Streets and instantly thought of Mozzer. Elia Kazan also directed one of Moz's favorite movies East of Eden. What do you fine people think? Do I need to get a life or is there some possibility?

He's very underrated

Too bad Moz didn't give him advice on how to write songs on the postcard.

Johnny Marr said in the South Bank Show that it was vital that the Smiths didn't sign to Factory. I'm sure they respected the Factory label and the bands on it, but the Smiths didn't want to be grouped in with a 'scene' and I don't think they could've been anyway.
