Unless it comes with a QR code linked to "I Know Who I Love," the full version of "Kitt," and/or the complete Miraval sessions, I believe I will pass.

Morrissey FAQ - All That's Left To Know About This Charming Man by D. McKinney coming May 2015 from Backbeat Books

(FAQ). No one can argue that Morrissey is one of the best lyricists and charismatic front men in music history. But people love to argue about other things his mysterious personal life, his pompous attitude, and the history and meaning behind his biggest hits. Morrissey FAQ will put to rest any questions and doubts about the singer known around the world for his meaningful lyrics and biting wit. Readers will also learn about his passions, his weaknesses, the people who love him, the people who hate him, and the people who want to be him. Not since Elvis have fans been so obsessed with a singer; they fight with each other at concerts, they rush and tackle him onstage, they dress and act like him, and they even build shrines dedicated to him. Liking Morrissey isn't just liking his music it's a way of life. Morrissey is known for his over-the-top lyrics, his stage antics, his philosophies, and his whining. But after reading this book and digging deeper into the brooding mystique that is Morrissey, you'll also start whining... for more Moz!

Note: The subtitle alone is criminal!

But where are Bummie and Barleycunt's books? Surely THEY are the ones with the TRUE insights...? Surely they would find it easy to get a book deal based on the compelling, highly original and extremely plausible nature of their insights...?

Frequently Asked Questions:
1)Is he gay?
2)Does he eat cheese?

whoa wow. they also, if thats the correct cover, used the exact same cover from morrissey in conversation (the collected interviews).

Simon Goddard's books are great, I enjoyed Autobiography. Outside of those, one or two were good attempts, most are dreadful. I doubt I'll go as far as reading the back cover of this one.

I'll read it. But it won't come close to answering all my questions.

I think we will get answers when he's dead, which hopefully isn't for a long time.
 
Re: New Book: Morrissey FAQ - All That's Left To Know About This Charming Man

Who/what is going to give us the answers? Damon? A secret diary?

Unless he really pisses Damon off, I don't see that happening. He's too loyal.

There are others out there who know things and they will come out of the woodwork.

I'm sure everyone in his inner circle has signed non-disclosure contracts.

Amen

even the Lads like Spencer and Gary, the drummers Spike T and Dean, and last but not least Alain have never really
said any personal about Morrissey, I think they know He's gonna sue them plus having worked with Morrissey
is a A+ on your musical past

Only Gary carved or shouted 'die Wanker' on his door in Primrose Hill London, but none of them spilled their gutts
or were tongue-in-cheek, strange...

'and they say he's mentall'..even Joyce praises Morrissey as being a member of the Smiths....Andy's memory is short term :lbf:

It's probably just a case of him being lucky, or despite the fall outs, the people he's worked with haven't been that bad after all.

You have to be a certain kind of person to blab to the press about somebody famous, most people probably have enough about them not to do it.
