Morrisey or Robert Smith

[_jonas]

Who's better?

i prefer Smith's lyrics & the Cures musicianship/sound over the Smiths.
plus Morrissey loves money.

but Asleep & The Queen Is Dead beat out most of what the Cure has released.
it's a hard decison to me.

[FayeQC]

Friday I'm in love is so awesome that I'm going to have to say the cure.
This is very close though..

[annaboun]

The Mos.

[micahistheballs]

Moz

Since the Smiths released much less material, they had far less bad material obviously and it's easier to like them in a sense because they have no bad or subpar albums while the Cure has a decent amount.

[sugarcoatedlies]

Robert Smith. If you watch South Park, you know why... hahaha

[_jonas]

i think Smith definitely brings in a more devout fanbase.
i've see so much goth poetry dedicated to him.

[ForeverDelayed]

While the Smiths were certainly more consistently good than The Cure, in terms of highlights The Cure just completely owns them. Disintegration, 17 Seconds, Pornography, Faith, Three Imaginary Boys, hell even Wish has its moments. Nothing The Smiths put out reaches those same highs. And almost nothing released in the 80's (or since) can top Disintegration.

[Chris Fallon]

Way to spell Moz's name wrong!

[El_Jeffe]

am i the only one that sees this age old comparison as apples & oranges? both completely different in their writing styles, they just seem to have a somewhat of an overlapping fan base at times (& even that's a bit of a stretch, given the amount of either or arguments made for each)

i'll cop out & say i enjoy them both, but each for different reasons

[kitti_katt420]

the Cure. always.

[Troggy]

Jesse Morrisey

[underthetalking]

Duffy.

[Machu505]

Moz

[stereomouse]

i love them both...

but robert is less arrogant than mozzy so im gonna have to go with him

I'm not sure I agree. Morrissey fans are pretty intense.

[Jumpoff]

I'm not sure I agree. Morrissey fans are pretty intense.

I'd say a better way of describing them is depressed.

Intensely so.

i always have. i had even single album on chrises computer and my ipod. but then all my songs got deleted and i cant find my cure cds that chris burned for me =( so i've havent llistened to them in maybe 5 months. haha

[Hey Kevin]

I keep getting confused thinking people say Smith instead of Smiths and visa versa

[fran.182]

morrisey just sucks...


the cure and robert smith are awesome

[Gwytherspoon]

yeah robert smith for sure. the cure are fucking brilliant

Agreed and agreed. Love'em both.

you have to be pretty serious if you're taking fashion advice from Robert Smith

[IWasaCamera]

I'm sure there are Morrissey enthusiasts who take after his style as well.

[njiata603]

Moz, Moz, Moz, Moz, Moz. No contest.

[hockeyguitar99]

Jesse Morrisey

:crackup:

[Smash Adams]

Robert Smith, Morrissey can be a whiny bitch but Robert is just cool

[Fin.]

Morrissey's lyrics. Smith's voice.

[Hey Kevin]

Morrissey's voice, Morrissey's lyrics, Johnny Marr's music.

[Bishop]

Steven Patrick Morrissey.

[Kid B]

Morrissey!

[lindZ629]

I enjoy Morrissey's solo work above all.

[EchoPark]

I can't say I prefer one over the other. Like stated earlier by ElJeffe, I like them both for different reasons.
