Dying in boredom listening to this Jeremy Vine nonsense, no mention of Moz yet.

He'll wait until 1.55pm to play it. Keep us all listening.

It's at times like these, more than any, that I miss Janice Long.

The only thing worth listening to Jeremy Vine for is to listen to the verbal car crash of a member of the public arguing with an expert, much like what is going on right now....

Or that nutter with the boring voice on before defending North Korea. He did eventually admit it may well be an oppressive regime, but he didn't seem convinced.

'You're all extracting the urine' - some nutter. I have changed my mind, I love this show

He has announced that he will be playing the song btw, but no time given.

The only thing worth listening to Jeremy Vine for, is the new Morrissey single haha! :')

HOLY SHIT IT'S THE BEST NEW MORRISSEY SONG IN 10 YEARS

Here we go then, seems much slower than the live version, which I like. Musically it's wonderful, really full during the chorus, it's great.

I think I take back what I said about it live, the album version is quite radio friendly.

I am in love with the ending


Edit: I forgot I was listening on iPlayer... *winds back time*

 

[Eustace Walks]

That jingle jangle guitar in the verse :')

 

[DrStatham]

Hmmm yeah vocals a bit less harsh and a bit softer than in the live version, I quite like it. Musically sounds better too, which I think will be a theme with this album.

Shame Jeremy Vine talked over the start and ending ruining my recording! Hopefully an actual digital release today.

I think (don't quote me on this, but as a musician, it sounds that way to me) his vocal has been autotuned - only subtly...

 

[Life_Is_A_Pigsty]

Very impressive, all three studio cuts so far have been excellent, Home Is A Question Mark is still the best song I have heard so far though, and it was live of course, can't wait for the studio version of that.

I just quoted you!

But no I'm not hearing that. He sounds the same on this version as he does live. Maybe you're hearing the backing vocals???

Love it!

Jeremy Vine added "Because we love him here".

Any chance someone could stick this on youtube, or somewhere?

 

[tivvissey]

Where can I hear it?

Yeah I love that track. Also can't wait!

The live version of Home is a Question Mark has bells on it. It's also about 'Home'. Which means it'll be a Christmas single. I'll bet all of my internal organs on that! @Morrissey Make it so or I'll die!!!

Where can I hear it?

BBC iPlayer (after 15:00) or Morrissey's offical FB.

I just listened "Jacky" on bbc2. I'm surprised that some people here like this single. It's like a poor b-side from the epoque "Ringleader". I don't like too much his voice, the melody doesn't offer any surprises... a very old school morrissey' s solo work (i mean we have already listened much more than 10 times this kind of song). The production doesn't offer more than the live version. Perhaps it's better than they do with "I wish you lonely" (it was the song I prefered in live but i was disappointed when I listened the song from the LP). So I expect more and more his new LP AT THE SAME LEVEL with "Maladjusted" : music without artistic cohesion, a self caricature of his work. If only we could have 1-2 gems like "Trouble"... I definitely don't expect more. And I'm so disappointed!
