Hang the DJ
Apr. 6th, 2006 12:40 pmI'm currently mortified that the other day I spaced out on the fact that Johnny Marr practically was The Smiths long before his stint with The The. Some former DJ I am! I eloquently blathered on to my husband about the distinction between Smiths & solo Morrissey less than an hour ago, citing this chorus as an example.
Guess what just came on the radio?
This is in addition to having my vintage teen angst song (Smiths, not Morrissey, I needed good guitar for my moping) half a lifetime ago covered earlier. I've been laughing at myself ever since, combined with some genuine amazement that my 3 lifelong friends who survived that era still have anything to do with me today. I was the epitome of doomcookie before the phrase was even coined & have a box full of godawful poetry and journals to prove it.
Edit: Major faux pas for RadioNigel to subject us to Joe Jackson - Steppin Out twice in about 3 hours.
