All over the place in his thoughts and replies. I love all of these songs and take away from the lyrics that touch me. I never thought Moz was Rapping in NCDD, but we all see and hear differently, I suppose.
i watch nick every friday when having my dinner,he will soon run out of songs for his morrissey friday slot as most of the albums are coming to an end.
friday was the last song from swords,good looking man about town,nick seems to think that every song is written from morrisseys point of view which we know this isnt the case.
 
Don’t forget Morrissey said that In Your Lap is his favourite song from that album. And yet it hasn’t been done live.
 
He’s just become so predictable and boring. You can’t help but wonder what the Steven who wrote to the NME would make of present-day Morrissey.
I think he would have learnt photography to take artful photos:bow:
 
The fact that this nerd makes Central tells you how truly lame and desperate things have become.
It seems really sweet actually that Morrissey is acknowledging a fan who seems very genuine about his interest in music and sharing it with others, something he has in common with Morrissey. I see it not as desperation that this is posted but as a connection to fans. When Morrissey mentions a movie, actor, musician, or author or points out a YouTube video, it’s always interesting to see what catches his attention.

Denial is wild. You think he is being sweet by acknowledging a fan? What about the fans he cancels on regularly and never acknowledges at all? Perth, Nottingham, the Greek….

True, cancelling isn’t sweet for the fans. It’s devastating - it’s happened to me, but I don’t think he has cancelled to be cruel or hurt anyone and am pretty sure he’d rather perform than cancel. There are many things that come up that could prevent a performance. Do we really need him to tell us he’s so depressed right now he can’t move, or someone screwed up the logistics, or he’s lost his voice? Does it help for him to beat himself up? Can we assume the best intentions instead of worst? I appreciate that he can do what he has to and not feel like he always has to say sorry. I wish I could be like that. He may be sorry, but it doesn’t seem like he gushes his personal feelings ever. He’s got to be himself. If this is living in denial on my part, it’s okay. I can’t let myself get to the point of feeling angry or owed by a singer who doesn’t know me, even though his music means so much to me. I do understand getting to that point possibly, as it’s such a unique relationship between singer and devoted fan, but it feels healthier to not go there, to realize he’s human and just wish the best for the person who has created the songs that have made my life so much better.

...and probably won't ever be performed live without the original player on piano, unfortunately. It is one of my favorite tracks on that album, which I think is an overall very good album.

I really loved how quickly he and the band were moving forward with World Peace (plus B sides) into LIHS, and to me the music was the next generation of the Morrissey band's sound --- AND they had Matt Walker (one of my personal favorite drummers for the last 25 years from when he played with Filter and Smashing Pumpkins) and Gustavo who was insanely talented. The guitar element had gelled also, with Boz playing all kinds of unique chords and phrasing and Jesse with his jagged leads plus his excellent e-bow. I was really excited about the music's direction then. No offense to the current lineup, but that lineup was pretty sweet, whether it had Solomon or Mando at bass, I do prefer Mando and his musicality myself. They also had some excellent songs - Forgive Someone, Spent The Day, Girl From Tel Aviv, Bullfighter Dies...to name a few. I really appreciated the Latin flair Gustavo brought, maybe it was too hot to handle - because I'm sure he brought some wild and complicated song ideas.

Regardless, I'm glad Morrissey has kept touring, even though I do miss the days of World Peace and LIHS (which was only 10 years ago) and Dog/Chain....yet it seems longer since he had a 'group' like he did then. It's probably because I haven't heard/do not own the new studio recordings, just like everybody else. Looking back, it's been a very busy decade for Morrissey.
 
Not this dork again :rolleyes:
 
I love the World Peace album & play it a lot - the music is just so exciting and interesting alone - let alone the lyrics. I never tire of it.

I am not a fan of "reaction videos" though........I find them a little pointless but that is just me. I get it some love them and so "rock on" to those that do :thumb: Morrissey must like them too ;)
 
i watched all of these weeks ago except for man about town which was last fridays,i like nick and its harmless fun.

i watch film reactions,its amazing how people have never seen the most popular films,star wars,jaws,alien ,have these people spent their life in a commune where there is no cinema allowed.

So, this was Morrissey with crippling despression not trying to be cruel or hurting his fans? Would rather play than cancel? Beating himself up? Best intentions?

"I had a night out with Morrissey once in LA. It was one of the funniest nights I've ever had with anyone.

"He'd cancelled a load of gigs because he had pneumonia and I was out in LA with people who knew him and he texted me. He said. 'Bring your credit card.'


"And I get to this bar and he's sat there and I go, 'I thought you cancelled all the gigs [because of] pneumonia?' And he said: 'And yet here I am'." - Noel Gallagher

I wonder why he omitted that little nugget from Autobiography.
