My beef w/ Morrissey is how the song structures set up by Marr + the rhythm section bore the palpable influence of Motown. "Sheila, Take a Bow" could be a Supremes track. "You Just Haven't Earned It Yet, Baby," "Half a Person," and "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now" sounds like Dozier/Holland/Dozier.
Marcus 🏳️🌈🇧🇧@marcusjdl.bsky.social · 3w agoMy beef with Morrissey runs all the way back to 1986 when he said this about Black artists. Nineteen Eighty Six, while the Smiths were still active. It’s not a “later phenomenon” don’t try and lie to me www.standard.co.uk/culture/musi...
