"New Manics Single"

Oh my word

I'm in shock, it's called 'The Love of Richard Nixon'. Which the title in itself is pretty poor.

Now imagine some sort of techno The Smiths... oh my it's poor. Not even I can like this.

Though, who knows? It might grow on me.

EDIT: I actually like it now. Everyone else won't. They've at least changed their sound, got to give them that.

and Light, pull your head out of Goatboy's ass.

Jesus, it's embarrassing to see.

I'll assume Goatboy became a simpleton for a second when reading my post:

I don't, have never and never will think the NME's opinion matters. I never even came close to saying that. I'm pointing out that it matters to morons who'll happily throw their cash into the tills at HMV because they read that The Smiths are cool again.

The most laughable of your comments is the "most seminal and influencial band from that period" remark. I'm really thanking The Smiths for Franz Ferdinand and The Ordinary Boys. From the bottom of my heart.

What's even more stupid is that fact you don't even like them! It's like you came in here, bitter and twisted faced, ready for a needless rant on how your opionion differs from somebody else, so they must be wrong.

And you typing laughter really showed me something. Boy, do I feel embarrassed.

His solo stuff is pretty naff.
He's overated and a moody git.

One of the most influential/cult following people mind you. I don't mind his last two singles actually and quite a fan of The Smiths.

I'm feeling the Manics should have packed it in after their Millenium gig.

I used to hate it, but it's grown on me as time has passed. He's the sort of chap whom I reluctantly admit is a genius.

But he is a fey, blouse-wearing ponce, you have to admit that. The kind of person that would get snapped in two in a fight.

I don't like his music (or his face) but that's just me.

He waved a Union Jack remember? That makes him a racist (lets just ignore the fact that about a year later, Britpop exploded onto the scene like a damp, cabbage-scented fart...).

God don't you know, like, anything

Geez... The Techno I'm speaking about is underground, hypnotic tunes, not the stuff that Moby makes.

Why is he "loathesome" and a "long headed idiot" exactly?

Friggin' good live though.

Well someone must have liked him, because he's back and more loathesome than ever.
