Re: The Moz Entertains

This is awesome. I love the original so much I clicked with the hope that Morrisey would do it justice. Figgered he might... he's a talented fella as well, and Larzini never steers me astray (ahem... Shonen Knife remains a point of divergence in taste) but covers can range from a fine but pointless imitation to a travesty to so amazing that the cover artist then "owns" it... the Jam still owns this one but Morrisey's cover does it justice and then some... actually, he's even enabled me to understand a few of Weller's brilliant lyrics a little better, as sometimes ol' Paul's accent can be a smidge cryptic for me. Thanks for this, Larz... FYI, the original is beautifully featured in the film "Stranger than Fiction" which was so good it actually surprised me by making me appreciate Will Ferrel (no small task there). Actually I suspect that the lead in that film is really Albert Brooks doing a cover of Will Ferrel. (what??)
concluding on note of wierdness,
Peter Sebastian (pseudonymical compromise for now)
