I Am Still Steve Jobs' Bitch

SHE BU: You might find it suprising to know there is more to IPOD's than becoming Steve Jobs' bitch, hearing damage and wankers with white headphones. This afternoon I scrolled on over to a Smiths compilation that Rob put on my IPOD. I clicked on their classic "This Charming Man" and discovered, contrary to what my crummy dub of a dub tape copy purported on my walkman, that the song actually contains quite a beautiful melody line that counterpoints Morrissey's sad harmonies. And to think this had been hidden from me for years by reduced sound quality and tape hiss. On "This Charming Man" in particular it brings out the joyous melancholy of the best pop music.
