Ringleader of the Tormentors

Got the new Morrissey today, and all I have to say is "Wow"! There's not a bad song to be found on this disc; pretty much everything deserves to be a hit. I'm far from a big fan, either; I only own a few Smiths CDs and Morrissey's solo greatest hits, so these aren't the words of a fam. I especially love "I Will See You in Far Off Places" (that guitar and sitar!!), "Dear God, Please Help Me", and "Life is a Pigsty".

Anybody else hear (and dig) this yet? I'm really interested to hear other opinions, and recommendations on where I go from here.

Oh, also picked up the new Pink, and I also dig it. Thank God for indie-record stores selling stuff before their respective street-dates! biggrin

love the Pink CD, i have Morrissey but I have to admit i haven't listened to it yet. I did get the single though, and that is great - so are the b-sides.

Words fail me...I got ROTT yesterday and have only listened to it four times,
and "Dear God.." reduced me to tears all four times.
Morrissey has been my voice since 1984,
and to hear such a beautiful voice sing, "and the heart feels free", just twists my guts!!!!...wow!
A lot of it sounds like some gothic musical, partically "I'll Never Be Anbodys Hero Now" and "At Last I Am Born"...fantastic!
Now running downstairs to give it another listen.
Enjoy everyone!
Steven.
