I didn't realise Gene were back together. Excellent comeback. Glad the singers moved on from stopped badgering Brown.

Catchy tune and funny lyrics, I remember when Morrissey released stuff like that.

Martin from Gene, who famously pretends to be moral and left-wing but tried to pretend he was getting Gene together to sell out a solo gig, even though he hadn't ( to avoid paying out) and whom left his GF and baby to marry a brit-pop superfan , could only dream of doing a song with this much wit and style

Have you seen Martin's trick yet, he waits for a well known figure to get in trouble and against the ropes. then he joins in the attack like the coward he is.
Did it to M and now to Ian Brown

I’ve been trying for a full twelve hours, but I still don’t dislike this song.

 

[Ben Budd]

If Morrissey does not say a word, and covers this live in whatever live show he does next, I will happily eat some humble pie about what a miserable sod he is.

Whilst it would be lovely were Morrissey to laugh this one off and even embrace it, experience shows that this is very unlikely. If nothing appears on Morrissey Central in the next 24 hours I will be surprised.

 

[Boomer]

I thought that was rather funny. Bass guitar ventured into New Order a bit, but I think “Manchester” does get lumped together outside of these shores somewhat.

My thoughts are that he won’t say anything more on the matter as he was infuriated from the start...
That said, I wouldn’t be surprised if at the next outing, Moz and band wore t shirts saying
“Lisa Simpson is a bitch”
Or something about Benedict
Watshisf***ingface....

 

[BookishBoy]

Not bad, but nowhere near as good as "You Should All Be Murdered" which remains the greatest Morrissey pastiche ever written.

 

[bhops]

This somehow turns into a New Order song at the end. But I like it................

 

[Phranc & Open]

....maybe?

Possibly!!!

 

[Morrissey_Sucks]

Wow! His best song in years and years.

 

[Seymour Glass]

If he would have just laughed this whole thing off it would have made him not seem like such a bitter old prick. It's a cartoon for godsake.

 

[Deleted member 28602]

Couldn't listen to the end of this.

 

[Anonymous]

Do you think he’ll sue ?

Who? Johnny Marr? Nah... He’s probably having a good chuckle.

I thought I was reasonably well acquainted with Sarah records—but I’ve never actually heard this before. So thanks; it’s quite good.

 

[The Wild Turkey]

As much as that cartoon claims to hate
Moz, they still keep tryin' to get some
play out of'em.

 

[Bluebirds]

Not a patch on this as a parody though...

 

[ACTON]

It does have a feel of 'What Kind Of People Live In These Houses', but with the pop sensibility of The Smiths/early Moz. The guitar solo is very New Order. Light and breezy.
No hot take from Skinny yet, can someone check up on him?

Totally! Reckon Hooky snook in there on guitar.

I thought the same!
