    "Left home a mystery, leave school for poetry.
    I say goodbye to them and me, mission velocity.
    It made me just run faster now, I’m gonna take it off driving round.
    Make up my mind, leave the windows down.
    I’m in something alright, I know
    I got to live it up, oh-oh, oh. I can’t resist, make for zero, oh, no. It turned out like I said it would, can I get the world right here? (...)
    Hello, you mystery. Mission velocity.
    Here comes our poetry, new town velocity." ❤

    I say goodbye to them & me
    Mission velocity
    It made me just run faster now
    I'm gonna take it all
    Drive around
    Make up my mind
    With the windows down
    I'm in something alright I know
    I got to live it out uh-oh
    I can't resist
    Net force zero oh no
    It turned out like I said it would
    Can I get the world right here?
    Step out to symphonies
    They play on for you and me
    When we faced that July down
    In uniforms
    One and one, no wrong
    We chased that summer down
    I'm in something alright I know
    I got to live it out uh-oh
    I can't resist
    Net force zero oh no
    It turned out like I said it would
    Can I get the world right here?
    I can't resist
    Net force zero oh no

    Not a lot of people know this, but, it has always been Mr. Marr's job to sort things out. Seriously. Check it out. If it wasn't for him, The Smiths would not have lasted five months, let alone the five years they did.
    Anyhow. Here is Mr. Marr soothing the souls of old fans of The Smiths - who really ought to know better because - Morrissey's always been like that. Always. Anybody claiming otherwise just did not have their eyes open fully.
    Nevermind. Doesn't mean you cannot enjoy The Smiths any longer because, that is just ridiculous. I have all the LP's. What difference does it make (smirk) whether I play them or not? Exactly.

      I am more in love with Johnny more than I ever was with Morrissey. F that guy.
      Marr is the fractalization afterglow of enlightenment from the adolescent dark state the Morrissey still represent and never grew from. Seem Marr’s purpose was for the Smiths to actually get off the ground and last so Morrissey can spew his negativity within the beautiful framing Marr provided. He’s never grown up, meanwhile Marr is revealing himself as the ground from which all the generations of our teen angst got embraced, processed and now, let go.
