You get turned on by that Guy Ritchie s***?

Nah he’s got them both beat just off of quantity of songs

true but her vocal style is also more unique. Also, Morrisey's forte are the lyrics. Also don't think he would be able to be as interesting as Fraser if he'd do the same because he is more of a standard crooner which had been done many times before as opposed to her ethereal style.

My ex was from Southgate

Both of their vocal styles are rooted in Irish tradition

Mozzy just wanted to be like an Oscar Wilde bar singer while Lizzy wanted to be a renegade choir soprano.

yes but she developed.

It’s not really much of a comparison to begin with since the twins always wanted to make more surreal stuff than the smiths were interested in. It’s like comparing a jazz group to a country group

Take away the best 2 albums from both bands and the smiths are still very far ahead IMO

trying to imagine Morrissey singing like Fraser and vice versa is hilarious

how the hell did this comparison even come up

ppl probably doing their 80's list research

I'd rank them

1. Treasure
2. Head Over Heels
3. Hatful of Hollow
4. The Queen Is Dead
5. Blue Bell Knoll
6. The Smiths
7. Heaven Or Las Vegas
8. Garlands
9. Victorialand
10. Strangeways, Here We Come
11. Milk & Kisses
12. Meat Is Murder
...

that's the point I'm trying to make. The Smiths weren't as special in the grander scheme of things.

Wild for Strangeways being that low

was just asking which band people liked better. they have similarities mainly being big 80s bands and having standout vocalists but never said they sounded anything alike

Headmaster followed by Rusholme

Queen is dead that low is crazy

That’s such a bullshit argument
Not having a unique take on how you make music doesn’t automatically mean you make music not as good as people who do
Kate Bush isn’t automatically better than The Rolling Stones just because she made more surreal stuff

Las Vegas as well

Morrissey does that head voice Irish squeal so much it’s easier to imagine him singing like Liz. I know it’s over in a Cocteau style

the smiths are more special in the grand scheme of things :tash:

nah

it sure has an impact. Otherwise you're an extremely good cover artist but there is little artistic expression of your own.

since when is Kate Bush more unique than The Stones anyway?
