Marr plays Smiths - NME (November 4, 2021)

Would it be a sin to suggest he should ask someone else to write the lyrics?

Yeah I think his voice is fine for what he’s doing but the lyrics are just to empty and distracting and maybe to cliche. Tenement time reminds me to much of what I’d didn’t like when Bernard butler was doing a similar thing. It all comes off as really superficial trite and doesn’t really rock IMO. I’ll try the others today as some said they were better
 
I had to transcribe these just to see what they looked like as whole & as a song structure:

Walk and talk in the danger zone
We gotta go to beyond the world
Check 12345 senses will blow
All together now, go, go, go!

Play that music storm we can’t hear
On multi-screen and watch our dreams appear
Strange times spinning out at heavens
[sic] gate
Somewhere on sensory street, Oh No!

All f***ed up on remote control
We turn on the impossible
Under the neon light now, rewind rewire I’m thinking
Something is happening to me, Oh No!

Senses storm in the danger zone
We read stars in the afterglow
Dance in the beam come and collide with me
Play back your dreams and have a dream on me

Noise and rhythm in the golden haze
Back to the neon and it’s getting strange
Burn that noise in the danger zone
Somewhere on sensory street, Oh No!

Strange heaven
Strange rhythm
Strange heaven
Strange rhythm

All charged up in the race to dawn,
We all fall in liquid love,
All together at the break of day,
Sensations spinning out, I can’t stay,

Noise and rhythm scene up here
Some education c’est la vie je doir partir
Strange kind of heaven in the danger zone
Somewhere on sensory street, Oh No!

Strange heaven
Strange rhythm
Strange heaven (Oh no!)
Strange rhythm (somewhere on sensory street, Oh no!)
Strange heaven (something’s happening to me, Oh no!)
Strange rhythm
Strange heaven
Strange rhythm


I leave you to reach your own conclusion. :cool:

reads like one of those Fredo the Robocop six pack 'computer class'
pub poems.(n)

Haven't you heard? He IS the Smiths now.

He was always at least 50% of the smiths if you didn't count his other work in the studio beyond songwriting, It's easier i would think to make your guitar sound like it did 30 years ago than your voice if you mean the sound and essence of the Smiths and that's without touching Morrissey's recent affinity for Thatcherite politicians and Murdoch's news media.
