I loved this. Thank you.
Especially because you come to a different conclusion than Tom Mitchell.
Since I read Mitchell’s piece I have listened to the Smiths WITH MUCH GUILT.
I find these discussions helpful. I need the dots connected for me.
On the question of “Brown Sugar” I don’t understand why Mick Jagger doesn’t do one of two things. A: Say, “Sensibilities change. I see the problems now. That’s why we don’t play it in concert anymore” or B: “I’ve changed the lyrics. It’s now an even better song.”
