Ragettian "Heh".

― Momus (Momus), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 22:47 (twenty years ago)

Please, sir, it's Raggettian.

Can somebody YSI the best ever Momus song? I have never heard any.

― Rio Natsume, Wednesday, 31 August 2005 22:51 (twenty years ago)

both have wonderful pouts, both brilliant at capturing mono-no-aware in their songs, both have lyrics and melodies that are as deep and as dark as hydrocarbon seeps, but momus is less aloof to his fans, less enigmatic than tintin is, plus he has the cleverer / wittier songs. duffy wins on romance, however. They have each managed v successfully to sustain solo careers by writing for bigger artists, but momus never played Live 8, did he.

I really fancy Duffy, mostly when he was Tin Tin.

Ditto.

Momus never had a cute nickname.

― O'so Krispie (Ex Leon), Thursday, 1 September 2005 12:47 (twenty years ago)

I really wanted this thread to be about a knock-down drag-out uber-effette fist-fight.

― David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 1 September 2005 12:55 (twenty years ago)

It would be like exactly bumfights.

There's a better sense of humor in evidence in the music of Momus, and Nick wears comical clothes and dances funny live, but Duffy is a very, very funny raconteur during his live act.

― Neil Harlo, Thursday, 1 September 2005 16:48 (twenty years ago)

does he doos plops music like plops in socks like rocks and sops and then doos plops in his eye pacth and makes the plops come out

― plops, Thursday, 1 September 2005 17:04 (twenty years ago)

He has the better chops.

Momus sports a ridiculously obvious comb-over these days, and Duffy doesn't. Duffy wins.

― R Ticehurst, Friday, 2 September 2005 12:26 (twenty years ago)

Judging by the photo below, they're both sporting comb-overs:

Stephen AJ Duffy and Kenneth Williams became pals after Duffy sent a letter to the Carry On star in 1985. Duffy wanted to know more about the "Unkiss that Kiss" line, which Williams had quoted in a recent Wogan interview.
It's a well known fact that Duffy loves his friends, but I should think he loves them no more than Momus does his. They both love Suzy, of course, apparently.
