it's soo tiring to hear that old guardian stuff "israel... controversial bla bla"

morrissey travels around and writes songs about what he sees, hears and feels "mexico" "america" "istanbul" "london" "scandinavia".

the very word "israel" is more controversial in some peoples ears than "cock sucker", "heroin" or whatever.

bloody hell, he sings about an ancient country, a culture that happens to be a root of our whole civilisation. he pays some respect to it and people find it remarkable that fans still receive it well because it is so controversial!?

thousands upon thousands of people have travelled to israel and fallen in love with the place - what's so bloody controversial with that?

if someone goes to the states and is blown away by the vastness, the richness, the heritage and quite loves it and sings about it - does that then become controversial?

The tourist has spoken and no one will remember what he said when tomorrow comes around.

Nothing weird about it. Hugh called Moz a racist on Twitter, so Moz bans him - simple.

Sooooo...we're not allowed to disagree with anything Moz says? We just have to pretend to be fine with all the shit he says? f***ing hell, that is shocking.

What's even more shocking is that Moz seems oh so fond of absolute scummy bastards who came out of nowhere a few years back and even rewards them with permanent guest list for their shitty behaviour. But I guess it doesn't matter as long as they attend every show and make him feel like he can't do wrong. It is truly disappointing to see people who have been huge fans and supported him for the longest time get banned for expressing their disappointment/concerns/opinions on a stupid platform like Twitter. Seriously, what the actual f***. I don't know Hugh personally, but man...this is sad.

For all his attempts to come across as brainy and enlightened it seems he has no clue what is going on in this world.

I bury The Living:

I bury The Living:

Was I supposed to cringe? Because I cringed. Imagine if that was your first experience/impression of Morrissey.

 

[Cornflakes]

Here's the preshow videos

4. Sound of the Crowd by The Human League (TV performance?: )

That's a surprising inclusion, although not an entirely unpleasant surprise.

It worked and made you upset so eat it all up with a wooden spoon.

What would you do if you had a lot of money like Moz and did not have to live in areas with a lot of problems. For all his attempts to come across as brainy and enlightened it seems he has no clue what is going on in this world.

Maybe he earned that money through conquering his fear and is just trying to help you

Loved the “what would you do if you weren’t afraid” back drop. Also love the Robert Gordon clip

Welcome to the real world and what people have to deal with every day. No surprise to anyone that Morrissey is a dictator of his own underpants. I think he knows he is dying soon and that makes him angry at the world so he takes it out on the haggis following.

He lives his life and I live mine and I would never give advice to anyone and instead I would mind my own business cause he is after all a millionaire who never ever deals with something called reality. The notion that songs can change someone is only something you believe in when young just as you vote for socialism only to mature and realise it never ever worked anywhere.

Other than the cringe-inducing "heil" during the middle portion of the song, I have no problem with that performance of I Bury the Living. Quite enjoyable, actually

Maybe you earned a good kicking of your head and the crack of your skull is better music than Morrissey's?

Moz still sounds in very good voice from these videos. Very impressive how his voice has maintained and arguably improved over the years.

So Uncleskinny was banned from his gigs years ago, the things you learn on here.

Cancer did him good.

What? No 'Home is a question mark'?
Best song on the album.

Joint best along with Israel

What "worked"? And where do you get the idea I was upset? Your original post just made you look like an idiot - I'm not fussed if you want to advertise your idiocy.

How many jews were in attendance to see and hear the goyim making a fool of himself?

 

[Irish blood Irish heart]

By drunken fools, do you mean scots?

I’m sure he does, that’s why I’m giving Glasgow a miss and going to the Dublin gig instead
