YEARS OF REFUSAL—MORRISSEY [ATTACK/LOST HIGHWAY] 4.5/5

Could it be that Steven Patrick Morrissey, he of the great, the late, The Smiths, is back on top of his game? That’s what the critics are saying, tagging Morrissey’s Years of Refusal as the first big comeback on 2009. And that’s putting it lightly as the man is on fire, scorching up the lyric pad with his unique homespun philosophy, whilst using the energy of rhythm and rock to bolster the arrangements.

Turning 50 this year has not hampered this man’s creativity or relevance to a modern audience, and becoming a father (yep, that’s his baby on the sleeve) has brought him rejuvenated hope, even if it is guardedly so (check out ‘It’s Not Your Birthday Anymore’, ‘You Were Good in Your Time’ and ‘I’m OK By Myself’). Morrissey now has someone to live for and he’s embracing it like a new dad should.

I find it hard to consider the review and take it seriously if they think the baby is Morrissey's! I could be wrong as I wasn't there!!

It is possible that it's his and his managers...Perhaps they made a semenic cocktail and agreed never to get a DNA test. Or they're married...and one of them is the baby daddy...(Anyone who says baby-daddy should have their baby taken away.)

I thought this article was just funny though...to just casually announce Morrissey is a father like that. That would be a great way for the story to break. If it is his...congratulations! He's due for a major midlife shift.

    is obviously semi retarded. I am Australian and this doesn't come as a surprise at all. Morissey never tours here and when he was here he was never on any late night talk shows because no here really knows or cares about any music here other than top 40 shit.

    Morrissey as a DAD? He'd probably make a very good Dad, but...it just goes against everything he's ever said.
