    By telling me that I was supposed to like The Smiths and loads of other tuneless, pretentious, art student shít.

    It took me until I was 17 to realise that the fault wasn't with me, but with them.

    Perhaps. Perhaps it would be more accuare to say that it took me until 17 to become adult enough to realise that the opinions of others are of no consequence to me. Particularly the sort of people who champion The Smiths.

    As a pre-internet teenager and then early 20s music obsessed it was quite essential reading to be fair.

    If only to find out as and when bands toured.
