Election Special Number 2


Morrissey divides opinion amongst music lovers much of the time, and some of his interviews and announcements over the years have been a bit dismaying. However, The Smiths were a massive band for me, and some of his solo career has held up well, while other bits have held up not so well, to put it mildly. This is a great song for two reasons- 1) It's a fantastic slab of glam rock guitars and 2) there's a slew of good lines in it, not least

'We won't vote Conservative
Because we never have'

He follows that one up with 'London is dead, London is dead', but it's the anti-Tory bit we're interested in here. Advice worth following I think.
Check the t-shirt as well. Ooh ahh.
