Some more original american music that the brits copied and tried to pass off as their own

Shaun Ryder is a better lyricist than Morrissey.
Shaun is superb
Neil Armstrong
Astronaut
He had balls bigger than King Kong!
Fay Wray!
First big suit on the moon
And he starts to play golf!
Hole-in-one!
Jesus was a black man
No, Jesus was Batman
No, no, no, no, not at all
That was Bruce Wayne
Iāll go back to what I said after the Manchester bomb.
Noel Gallagher wrote and writes songs of hope and healing that bring people together.
āDonāt Look Back Angerā was already one of the greatest songs of all time but after the bomb it took on a whole new context that transcends music - one song served as the focal point for bringing a whole community together in the face of evil and disaster. Thatās an incredibly powerful thing.
After the Manchester bomb, Morrissey went on a drunken rant against all Muslims.
He must have been terribly annoyed that his little ditty about a ten ton truck crashing into people and killing them didnāt quite capture the mood of his city at the time.
Lads who pin up Morrissey as some sort of lyrical genius are the type of guys who wear thick rimmed glasses and carry around a copy of Ulysses by James Joyce. Itās all optics, itās just for effect.
He was a dreadful vocalist as well, but he carried dead flowers on stage and wore thick rimmed glasses so he must have been very smart.
Who is Anger?

and when weāre in your scholarly room who will swallow whom?
John Lydon said Anger is an energy.
Metallica said Anger was a saint.
So thereās differing views on the topic.
How does carrying dead flowers make you look smart?
Hand in Glove is one of my all time favourite songs, ever.
In fairness youāre right on the Donāt Look Back in Anger thing.
I havenāt seen a song to galvanise a nation so much since Candle in the Wind.
Or since Making your Mind Up by Bucks Fizz.
I donāt have any problem with people reading Ulysees or wearing thick-rimmed glasses if they want to as I donāt believe any of those things makes one a twat. I donāt even think carrying dead flowers on stage makes one a twat.
My main problem with Morrissey is that heās a miserable, curmudgeonly old fart with a boring singing voice which generally makes me want to turn my radio off if one of his songs comes on.
What do you think of the Smiths, mate?
Outstanding -
I am right and thatās a rather fatuous comparison youāve tried to make there.
All you needed was Coldplay or U2 to come along and sing it.
Oh wait.
