This Saturday (if everything goes to plan) I will be seeing Morrissey in concert for the fifth time. These are the fifteen songs I would most like for him to play, in order of preference: 1. Alma Matters 2. I Know Very Well How I Got My Name 3. Trouble Loves Me 4. Hairdresser on Fire 5. Such a Little Thing Makes Such a Big Difference 6. One of Our Own 7. Sing Your Life 8. Picadilly Palare 9. Southpaw 10. I Know It’s Gonna Happen Someday 11. Mama Lay Softly on the Riverbed 12. Life is a Pigsty 13. Certain People I Know 14. Art-Hounds 15. You Have Killed Me

I could check the set lists from earlier stops on this tour to see if he’s doing any of these, but I definitely won’t do that. As it stands the only ones that seem remotely likely to appear on the setlist are “Alma Matters” and “You Have Killed Me”, and due to inborn pessimism I regard the latter as far more likely than the former. On the plus side, he could do none of these and still put on a great show.

If I were to make this list again from scratch, “Mountjoy” would definitely be on there somewhere. And, on the other end of the Morrissey emotional spectrum, “Roy’s Keen”. And maybe “Our Frank” too. I’d probably have to make it 20.

Zdenek Sýkora, Polychrome Structure, 1969. Painting on canvas. Czechoslovakia. Louisiana Museum of Art

Sýkora, as one of the first artists, included the computer into his preparations of a work of art at the early 1960s. Even though he worked with systems, programmes or randomness, he remained a painter, too; he had been occupied with shapes, colours and their mutual relations in an original way. More to see: Source
