- Sometimes I think that every man who writes, every man who paints or composes, deep soul or symphonies/It makes no difference, all those men are only making do with substitutes." A previously unreleased take from Man of Letters (1994, dir. Hannu Puttonen) sessions.
he’s a genius. so ridiculously underrated, even among the music community!
One of the most beautiful songs ever. Big memory of travelling to London Chelsea Art College to see Momus sing this c.87/88. amazing lyricist and artist.
I love how he uses this romantic air of poetisism to get away with such absurd ideas - folding a girl up in a portfolio case because she's skinny? Having passionate sex that makes him think of an artists grace inscription? To be clear, I think he's well aware of the absurdity, and that's part of the song, and it's honestly what I like most about it, the Self Aware uncanniness of it
This is precisely the magic of the first two momus albums
One of the greatest Lovesongs ever!!!!
i frickin love momus
I hope that tea didn’t go cold untouched
Deeply clever.
Momus loves people and most of all women
masterpiece ❤
Is Momus a misogynist? Is Momus the last great misogynist? Or an evolved sexual being? These are questions that still challenge me from listening to his music for 25 years . . .
Momus is a pervert, but at least he never tried to hide it.
Perfection
he looks so much better with long hair and a beard.
Yes a big chin not to have a beard
Perferct
i like it
Brillaint. Lyrically. Dare I say. Matt Johnson. Paddy McAloon, Morrissey. Ed?
@momasu genius
I still can't tell if he's gay or not! But one thing for sure, he's about as secure as it gets!
momus seem like tha kinda dude to superficially present himself as mad effeminate & sexually nonthreatening as a means of getting broads to let they guard down & thereby more easily seducing them lol, tho at tha same time there seem to be a distinct element of fascination wit homosexuality n bisexuality in alot of his material, often xpressed via consistent themes of sexual confusion, insecurity, duplicity, jealousy, n adultery lmao ( ie 'bishonen', 'hairstyle of tha devil', 'love on ice', 'righthand heart', 'tha homosexual', 'complete history of sexual jealousy', 'lifestyles of tha rich & famous' etc)
its all the same to me
