I know a lot of people always wonder what really went down between Marr and Moz, and here is what I found through some ahem, thorough research. I think they were great friends at first, great mates. But at some point, I do believe Moz was in love with Johnny. Whether it was reciprocated is debatable. Songs like angel angel, and a handful of smiths songs practically tell the story. It's just a shame that the two of them cannot seem to find some common ground and be friends again. I believe someone's feelings got really hurt beyond repair. Either way, I adore the music that we have from their friendship and what have you. They gave us amazing music from whatever angst was going on in so many songs.

Andy Rourke has made mention several times of the influence of bassist Mick Karn from the band Japan on his style. "I rate Rourke’s creative bass playing almost as highly as I do Mick Karn’s of Japan, and funnily enough, in the book, Marr and Rourke’s trip to see Japan play live in Manchester is recounted. It made a huge impression on Rourke, who said Karn influenced the way he came to play bass." "AR: Mick Karn was fucking amazing. I bought all the albums and tried to emulate everything that he did. He was a real musician and they were true New Romantics. I preferred the more guitar-like earlier albums, especially Adolescent Sex. Real musical landscapes.

With all respect, I wouldn't want them to reform. I've followed them since their formation, and listened to little else in all that time. The magic of The Smiths is that they broke up when they did - whilst at the top. We can all dream but I hope and believe that's all it will ever be.
@theoneandonlyownage7 жыл бұрын
