Rubbish. Moz could have 'played the game' and been like Johnny. Played the role of the non-offensive 80s indie grandpa. He chose to speak out and f*** up his career. He didn't have to. He must have done it for one reason only - he gives a damn.
Bizarre logic. Morrissey put a bomb under his career time and time again but it's because he cares? About what? Because it's not his band or making music or actually putting
effort into his career, he's done every human thing possible to screw up his chances there over the past 7 years. That's not 'caring', that's just being a stubborn fool who constantly acts against his own interests whilst expecting the world to fall into his lap. When it doesn't happen, he invents conspiracies and blames everyone else for the inevitable outcome. Morrissey
wants all the glory (and all the £££) that comes with success, without putting in any of the work that goes with it - promotion, touring, being semi-civil with a label, half-decent artwork and all the rest.
And how typical, to drag Johnny into it. Johnny does things for money, sure. And again, he's also years and years past his heyday and not getting any younger so I don't really see anything wrong in it. They are not going to change the world now, pop is a young person's game. Johnny at least keeps his word, shows up when he says he will, plays small venues and prices tickets accordingly. Moz cares so much about everything these days, he can't even do that. Absurd argument.
