Come on I don't think he was ever racist. He just never felt the need to explain anything he did. If someone thought he was rasist he didnt give a damn. He didn't see it as his place to correct what other people thought of him. I think he probebly liked people thinking he was racist when actually he wasn't, like it was all one big joke that funny just to him (the best kind of jokes really). Lyrically I love the way he uses expressions you never hear in songs ('lets face soon I will be dead' - who says things like 'lets face it' in songs?), and how the words never quite fit the metre. Aside from Morrissey, Johnny Marr's playing is so beautiful. If you hate Morrissey you can at least appreciate Marr.
"Burn down the disco, Hang the blessed DJ, because the music they constantly play, it says nothing to me about my life"
Always loved that lyric - kinda sums up my feeling whenever go to clubs or discos.
