So lets go along with those 4 songs being better than anything Marr wrote.I Am The Resurrection, She Bangs The Drums, Fools Gold, This Is The One etc. These are better songs than what Johnny Marr wrote.
A reunion of The Smiths, which thankfully will never happen, wouldn't blitz The Stone Roses at all. Provide examples of what they were do to completely eclipse all those sold out shows? Morrissey has become an awful human being too.
And now lets go beyond those 4 songs....
Marr wrote 72 tunes for The Smiths in a 5 year period. (the same time Squire struggled to write an albums worth 89 to 94) I can count the duff ones on 1 finger.
How many duff tunes were on 2nd coming alone!
Having seen The Smiths 5 times I selfishly have never wanted them to get back together (although of course would have gone) and pre Morrissey coming out with his For Britain stuff they would have sold out stadiums in the UK and large arenas in USA, Germany, France, Oz, Argentina and Chile.
The Stone Roses during all of their come back gigs only played Madison Square Garden, New York - no other gigs in the US. Not even LA.....
