A slightly different version of the interview

Morrissey (Sunday Times Magazine, Nov. 26, 2017) - Chrissy Iley

Blood blikey hell. LOL!! Stop it. Every Uncle Steve fan in LA knows where you live. It's just that no one wants to stalk you anymore Uncle Steve like at your old place in West Hollywood, so don't worry, you don't have to lie.

So who do we believe, Aztec, a meth head car park attendant or Morrissey?

He lived near here until a few years ago, but now he’s just visiting. Where does he live now? A sigh. “I’m in a different place all the time.

great front cover,why would somebody think this was joan sims daughter.

 

[Surface]

Thought that was an interesting interview to be fair.

 

[SweetnTenderYorkshireman]

Decent interview, nothing too sigh inducing, though he is sticking to his guns over Spacey, and he defends playing China when didnt he avpid Canada for similar reasons? Strange.
Great points about the modern media, how they want to correct you rather than present you as you are.
Massively disappointing to hear he is not a fan of Curry.
I also detest mushrooms and onions.

That is long known. He said in the past that he doesn't like anything spicy or even any herbs. He said he would cry if he had to eat anything Chinease.

 

[Thewlis]

The Voice of reason.
Very relaxed and at ease.
And spot on about the narrow-mindedness of the Guardian and their ilk, as also seen on this forum on a daily basis unfortunately...

 

[Shaw]

"breaths a sigh of relief"

The Guardian and their ilk? That's me I guess.
I suppose I should be more accepting of racists and sex abusers.

 

[Flibberty]

A good interview.

Nothing too controversial here.

 

[Thewlis]

Exactly the point
A very narrow minded The Sun-type of reaction...

What a mass of contradictions. Uses cashew milk but has never tried a curry. Any vegetarian knows that Indian food is the business. I prefer black or green tea without milk myself - the way tea should be drunk.

 

[Peterb]

Really?
My post was a rather gauche attempt at irony but you appear to have called my bluff.
Can you explain how I should be more sympathetic to racists and sex abusers?
And do you have a message for them?

 

[Thewlis]

No! Nobody mentioned racists and sex abusers but you - and The Sun.

"Morrissey is still mesmerising on stage as he lashes and whips his microphone cable. He gives us the songs that still speak to us even though they’re decades old. This audience — a diverse collection: black, white, brown; young, old and very young; men, women, gay, straight — seems to be with him all the way. No one minds that on Morrissey’s orders the only food sold is vegetarian. I’ve been to that same stadium many times and seen artists of similar years with pretentious trousers and hair plugs. I’ve seen them sing their old songs to a crowd of middle-aged spread. This concert was not like that. Though I could have done without the bit where the 58-year-old threw his jacket into the crowd and flaunted his unworked-out torso. But it was unselfconsciously done."

Loved reading that! If only she focused more on music!

 

[Sidnettle]

It's a strike for democracy because he agrees with it. Tired rhetoric from the Brexiteers.

f*** the other 16,141,241 people.

OK so in what respect am I and us Guardian reading liberals narrow minded?
Help us!

 

[Sidnettle]

Help us!

You don't think it's okay to be racist

 

[Thewlis]

Help us!

Because you label everyone who doesnt’t subscribe to your worldview as racist, can you read?

Good command of the stats there Sidnet

Well, I have a rudimentary command of my native language. I get by but thank you for your concern.
Now back to the issue. My worldview. You understand what that is do you? That's interesting. Can help me understand what it is because Im not sure. I just think people should be kind to one another.
