Moz on senility - interesting quote.

[Desert Bee]

"I don't want to walk onstage with a hair transplant, with shoes on the wrong foot. I find pop senility totally appalling to witness and obviously there's so many strong examples of it now. I don't want to haul the carcass across the studio floor and reach for the bathchair as I put down the vocal." (Feb '88)

'I don't plan to go on much longer, really. I think that would suggest a lack of imagination. And a lack of dignity also.'
2009.

Absolutely true to himself, then.

 

[Raphael Lambach]

As the one above had said, this year he's said that his career will be end quite soon.

 

[CrystalGeezer]

Please be true. Seperation is more dangerous.

 

[Anker Ignis Fatuus Von K.]

If he stops, I die. To say the least.

Okay, maybe not, but it's absolutley impossible to imagine a world without him as an artist and performer. Sad.

 

[JD93]

Although he did get the New York Dolls back together, so who knows, maybe his views have changed? David Johanssen is pushing 60 now.

That's a good point! Raises hope

Here's my take on Moz:

I fell in love with his music and his IMAGE in the late 80's, early 90's. i guess i'm still holding on to those memories. Realistically, I don't think I would be as intrigued by Moz today if I was a newbie. But I am loyal to Moz just like a share holder is loyal to a stock that he hopes and hopes will increase in value although he's seen a steady decrease in price (weird analogy, I know).

IDK, I guess I'm moving on in life.

This is how I feel. I don't know what would fill the void.

He's only 50! People are talking like he's in his late 70s. Lord.

So was Michael Jackson only 50. You just never know.

 

[Scarlet Ibis]

We're not talking about death. We're talking about performing. Morrissey has far more dignity than Michael Jackson had. Morrissey could perform into his 70s and still retain his dignity, depending on how he did it. It's not like he's in a hair metal band or something. He's MORRISSEY! He just stands there and sings. It's beautiful.

i'm more into him than ever. He and his music doesn't disappoint.

He may just want to reconsider removing his shirt in the future.

Yeah I'm not too sure i want to witness grey chest hairs either.

What's wrong with grey chest hairs?

 

[dicartwright]

He called "senile" and "decrepit" a man in his 60's when he was younger. Those immature views are to be expected in a teenager, but our boy always seemed to talk that way about "older" people.
I hope he's grown enough to reconsider what "being old" really is.

 

[mcrickson]

He could pull a Sinatra. No one badmouths him for performing into his later years. He just needs to go in that direction musically.

Hey... I agree with that. All of that.
