He still has the spark on some lines, but I think the world is quite complex and the danger here is to just be simplistic. It doesn't make the lyrics stronger, it makes them dumber. I liked the WPINOYB title, but something like the rich must be richer and the poor must stay poor... Well, hello...
Completely agree regarding his singing voice - amazing these days.
I quite like most of his late songs, but more the music than the lyrics. I like the minimalist style of just a few sentences, just think that they could be more thoughtful. Years ago, it was the opposite - lyrics prevailed, he...
If that was the (rethorical) question, then I'd say because I couldn't care less if an artist is happy and enjoying himself - I do care about the artistic output. Even less so in the case of a man who despises the human race (me included I guess) and that probably thinks I should be ashamed on...
I see your point.
I must add, however, that I only relate to Morrissey as an artist. From that point of view, I don't care if he's happy or not - in fact maybe he writes better songs when he feels miserable, which happens to many. As a person, I don't know him (and from what I read I doubt I...
The horns were sampled, but the band was fully live. This is very usual, you just feed the drummer with a click in tempo with the sequencer/sampler. This is what they do at every show. You can clearly hear Boz on the left channel and Jesse on the right with his metal-zone-soaked-in-reverb...
If he would just stop suffering for not being a mega-star, accept most people will not appreciate his art (and progressively less so in this world), seclude himself and work on crafting songs like only he can, then we could get him back.
If, conversely, he insists in blaming everyone for lack...
I see your point, but I think there is a difference between specific and vulgar. Not just The Smiths, his solo career has memorable lyrics too. A simple line like 'life is nothing much to lose, it's just so lonely here without you' has emotion imho. The spark is occasionally still there, but the...
Morrissey would be believable as the shy insecure kind if he didn't constantly make bold public statements. When he does, probably thinking he needs to be provocative to be a true artist, he forgets and diminishes his own legacy. He falls into his worst contradiction - are you a sensitive soul...
Well, this certainly shows he's reaching the dumbest audience. If that was his intention.
It was already obvious from his recent lyrics anyway. What a shame to lose such an intellect.
It surprises me that a man of this intelligence is so inclined to speak about whole countries in such simplistic terms. Especially when he himself thinks he's an island. Either you believe in individuals, or you don't.
So by this logic sorry Moz you are equally guilty of this stupid UK...
As an aspiring troll, you seem to be a small one. If you had the faintest idea of the city blocks or the venue, then you might get some points for your ludicrous, pitiful trolling career. As it is now, I don't see any future - you're not even funny. But there's plenty of threads, keep trying.
Haha.. 3 mts is my dining room. You must be confusing it with Razzmatazz 3, there's 3 rooms in the same block. The main one holds at least 2000 people. The 'elbow room' another poster mentioned on the basis of the pic was mistaken - what the pic showed mainly was the corridor in front of the...

Not right order except first 3 and last 2. Still the same tour but he did an effort to play what he didn't play last time in Barcelona. Return of Mama lay... Good gig, fine voice, almost no talking between songs. Full house
