Saw him in Leeds last week
He did a new song

If you're going to jump then jump… If you're going to run home and cry then don't waste my time / If you're going to kill yourself then / To save face – get on with it").

It was rather shocking to hear. He has always done songs that allude to suicide but this is the most blatant. I saw the Smiths a few times in 1986 , a very bad year for me as I thought I was going insane with depression and acute social anxiety. Their music along with others like Joy Division have been a comfort in getting though life
Some people are so alien to any deep feelings of disaffection or sorrow that they see this music as 'depressing'.......
