Canada is the poor slob's UK. I read somewhere that Morrissey was not too "Keen" on going there to tour, but he hadmortgage payments and then reconsidered and played there anyway. Some of his best shows took place in Canada anyway.

I wonder why he doesn't live in England. Is it the not all that attractive women or just the bad teeth on the general population.

...he doesn't live here because, as Britain is usually at least 10 years ahead of America in clothes/fashion and always ahead in music, his days of success here were over by the time you lot had heard of him (remember his first hit here was nearly 20 years ago)....and Morrissey's ego CANNOT take justified critiscism, bad press or flagging record sales.

So he's living in the land of career suicide, the country he always claimed to loathe with a passion, the culture he'd denigrate at any opportunity.

Well done, Stephen.

We look to Europe as many of our fine restaurants will attest to. We don't, however, look to England for fine cuisine. We look to England for things NOT to eat. The only good thing to come out of England for consumption is, well, uh, nothing.

Yanks use what is commonly known as 'lazy English' - hence the dropping of 'u's and usage of the letter 'z' instead of the correct 's'. It's a commonly known, saddening fact that the US education system lags miles behind ours - English, my yankee 'friend', IS ENGLISH. There is no alternative. Get over it. If you speak our language, at least learn to spell it, imbecile.

What you speak is regurgitated, second hand slang used by dullard southern farmers and your racist grandfathers. OK? Good.

And as for the boring life....err...wasn't it YOU who was picking up on people's usage of the English language? Scroll back, dear, your memory, along with your education, has failed you.

p.s..... if the only sex available would be from yourself, Wendy (apparently your availability is legendary in certain circles), well, I'm afraid I'd obviously rather bury a close relative than go within spitting distance of you, you gammy mare.

Britain, as always, is the centre for music - without question. No country has shaped the face of modern music like Britain - from the 60's through to present day, we have always lead the pack. The closest America came to competing was with Motown. A long time ago.

Our clothing designers lead the world of fashion - what London wears, Paris and Milan will soon be wearing. And america will follow on in maybe 3 - 5 years. Your designers are crass, loud, obvious and gauche. Like most Americans.

...and remember, why on earth would I waste time on an anti-american campaign on here? You lot do that for yourself - as I mentioned before, it's no wonder the world despises america when it's obviously full of puffed-up, laughable little yankee cretins like yourself.

Now, how's THAT for telling it like it is, twat?

..Morrissey used to like The Primitives, and remember how shite they (always) were.

Just because Elvis has been promoted to 'God'dom' among some who love tragic artists with tragic deaths doesn't actually MAKE him a God, and to be honest, whilst he is undeniably gorgeous, neither his music or his films appeal to me.

...and anyone who screws a woman as ugly as his own mother...well....
