>“Bowie is not the person he was. He is no longer David Bowie at all. Now he gives people what he thinks will make them happy, and they're yawning their heads off. And by doing that, he is not relevant. He was only relevant by accident. One can't help but think back to the early '70s and wonder if all the excitement and the glamour that he had was the influence of others. Perhaps he's just doing now what he always did, which is zap from the people standing next to him. And we have to assume that for the past twenty years or more he's been surrounded by accountants and drab, forgettable people." –Morrissey in 2004
He's right, y'know.
All of that applies to Morrissey as well.
Morrissey is always right desu.
Right about Bowie, right about the Chinese, right about the UK flushing itself down the toilet in the name of progressivism, right about reggae, right about everything.
Here, have a sick Peel session.

Morrissey is always right. All meat eaters should kill themselves desu
Scaruffi agrees
>Bowie merely recycled what had been going on for years in the British underground, in particular what had been popularized by the psychedelic bands of 1967. And he turned it into a commodity: whichever way you look at his oeuvre, this is the real merit of it.
> Meanwhile, Blackstar = avant-garde masterpiece

Morrissey is such an unlikeable cunt.
>bowie died of cancer January 2016
Of course Bowie is not the person he was, he's fucking dead.
>>73947722
moz is usually right. bowie was a bandwagon jumping hack, starting out with a bunch of unlistenable piano balad drab, then going """"""experimental"""""" and after that becoming a meme

As usual with Bowie, Blackstar (RCA, 2016), produced again by Tony Visconti,, is mostly image and very little about the music. The ten-minute Blackstar, that was supposed to be the centerpiece, is little more than a funereal litany a` la Doors with jazz horns that goes on five minutes too many. Bowie crooning melodramatic in Lazarus (from his Broadway musical about an alien who falls in love) or romantic in Dollar Days is either delirious and pathetic, certainly not entertaining. His tedious voice interferes with the driving jazz jam of 'Tis a Pity She Was a Whore and with the frenzied and tense Sue (a 2014 single). Even when the voice is not a distraction, the rest is hardly intriguing: I Can't Give Everything Away boasts an awful distorted guitar against syncopated beats and layers of electronic drones: not exactly genius. This is trivial "music" that any amateur could make, except that most amateurs would be ashamed to release it.

Calm down, have a salad.
>even his death was ART
>>73947722
I really fucking dislike Morrissey because I think he is a narcissistic and pretentious piece of shit yet I can't stop agreeing with him a lot of times.
>>73947722
Is it true that Morrissey is a twat?
