Moz Show & Plagiarist's Corner, Vol. 8: What She Said
Saw the Moz show at the Sun Dome on June 2. Awesome show. First, the opening act was Kristeen Young. Good stuff, there.
Moz just blew me away. I've seen him a number of times, and he was always good; but this was something else. It was like he really meant it. And, he played a solid mix of old and new, including some stuff from The Smiths. Here's the set list:
The Queen is Dead
You Have Killed Me
In the Future When All's Well
Disappointed
Girlfriend in a Coma
Let Me Kiss You
I Just Want to See the Boy Happy
I Will See You in Far Off Places
The National Front Disco
I've Changed My Plea to Guilty
That's How People Grow Up
At Last I Am Born
Panic
Irish Blood, English Heart
All You Need is Me
Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want
Every Day is Like Sunday
The Boy With the Thorn in His Side
Life is a Pigsty
How Soon is Now? (FWIW: This was performed even better than with The Smiths)
(encore)
The Last of the Famous International Playboys
You're Gonna Need Someone on Your Side
Anyway, in tribute to Moz, here's a Plagiarist's Corner of what I think is his saddest song:
What She Said
By The Smiths (Lyrics by Morrissey)
What she said,
"How come someone hasn't noticed that I'm dead?
Have they decided to bury me?
God knows I'm ready!"
What she said
Was sad
But then, all the rejection she's had
To pretend to happy would only be idiocy
What she said
Was not for a job or lover that she'd ever had
No no no no no no
What she read,
All the heady books
She'd sit and prophesize
It took a tattood boy from Berkenhead
To really really open her eyes
What she read,
All the heady books
She'd sit and prophesize
It took a tattood boy from Berkenhead
To really really open her eyes
What she said
"I smoke 'cuz I'm hoping for an early death,
And I need to cling to something."
What she said
"I smoke 'cuz I'm hoping for an early death,
And I need to cling to something."
No no no no no
Alone, alone, alone, alone, alone...
