In a 'Morrisey mood'
 

Well well.Have you ever been in one?I am in one tonight.

I'm always in the mood for the Smiths. Morrissey is good but the Smiths were far better.

Not my point but very close.One of those days when all i play is The Smiths and related.

I have been in a Morrissey mood for a few weeks now. I blast Morrissey and smiths. to me they are equals and delicious and wonderful.

MOTHER I can feel the soil falling over myyyyyyyyyy.....

I understood. I just didn't care and posted what I wanted. I'm going to put in the new Morrissey after Joanna Newsom.

I love his DVD who put th M in manchester.

filmed at manchester on his birthday during the Quarry tour.

I have 'The youngest was the most loved' on now.

There is not such thing in life as normal!

I still have days when I listen to loads of Smiths stuff, but Morissey solo (and Marr's other stuff) has never had anything like the same effect on me. I would say though that a 'Smiths mood' isn't the wallowing self-pity thing that many imagine it to be - I always thought of Morissey as either clever or witty (or both). The Smiths made me smile a lot and, of course, they're another wonderful thing about Manchester.

'Smiths moods' usually consist of the whole of 'Meat is Murder' and whatever other bits I choose. For whatever reason, I've never updated my Smiths stuff onto cd - they seem to suit vinyl.

When i say 'Morrisey mood' i probaly mean The Smiths as i'm a huge fan.I've never thought of them as 'sad' but more melancholic wich is a different thing alltogheter.

Always looking for attention
Always needs to be mentioned
Who does she
Think she should be ?
The shrill cry through darkening air
Doesn't she know he's
Had such a busy day ?

Tell her ... sshhh
Somebody tell her ... sshhh
Oh, no way, no way, there's no movement
Oh, oh, hooray
Slowest ...

It was only a test
But she swam too far
Against the tide
She deserves all she gets
The sky became marked with stars
As an out-stretched arm slowly
Disappears

Hooray
Oh hooray
No, oh, oh, woh, there's no movement
No, oh, hooray
Oh, hooray

Please don't worry
There'll be no fuss
She was ... nobody's nothing

(What's your name ?)
(What's your name ?)
(What's your name ?)
(What's your name ?)

When he awoke
The sea was calm
And another day passes like a dream
There's no ... no way

(What's your name ?)
(What's your name ?)
(What's your name ?)
(What's your name ?)
(What's your name ?)
(What's your name ?)
(What's your name ?)
(What's your name ?)

Morrisey is happier than this whole forum put together these days.And it shows.It's not a good thing.hehe

Because he REALLY needs to be more of an up himself arrogant prick, right? [inresponsetocokeideas]

I haven't had a Smiths mood in ages. I used to often, but I've 'known' too many women who're into the Smiths, it kind of ruins the whole single-ness melancholy of it all.

Now, Fall moods, they come by once or twice an hour.

Steady on there,man.There is space for both.

Yours

Morrith

Space, of course. I just very rarely think, "Oooh. Smiths, yes, that's what I want." Whereas, in spite of the fact I listen to them every day (nearly), I still go, "Ooooh. The Fall!" Every time.

Polar opposites meet.

Oh, I'm definitely going to need a beer if we're playing the post obliquely game.

'Morrisey Mood',remember.

I've just allowed some Nico to slip in through because of that.

Yes,that's it.

I love Morrissey's solo stuff equally with the smiths. I see it as a continuum. While I love the smiths I really have never seen anything all that outstanding about Johnny marr's playing or his arrangents. They are wonderful but not something that matches musically what Morrissey brings lyrically. without the Moz and his vocal stylings and his lyrics, the smiths would have been just another jangle pop rock band out of manchester.

people do not understand sometimes that on the surface morrissey's lyrics are selfpity but below that he is actually denigrating the very people who feel that self pity, including himself and US. I love that.

I'm in an Industrial mood. Can't we just be friends? We both want to wear Nazi outfits...

meine uncles band opened for morrisey once

aww i always am in the mood for the old Mozza... but i have to hand it to you Hayden, what you said is bang on, The Smiths were far better.

I'm moving on to The Pipettes now.Terrordrome.

i would go out tonight but no...


i'm just too blue.

jesus, its amazing what happens when you google "sad"

fuckin hell

Give the kid some damn pills.

Surprised as you two would percieve Morrisey as being sad.He never struck as being a 'sad' person as such but more an outsider with considerable problems that turned into gold.The Smiths?I was never saddened by them but more,like,uplifted wich would be more appropiate.

ha ha!! your so funny Porkie..

The Smiths make my day. to me The Smiths are "walking to work on tuesday morning at half eight" music (monday is actually my day off)
no i was just foolin around with the public perception of Moz, quiff in one hand... suicide note it the other...
My friends think i'm a nutter for loving The Smiths/Morrissey, but they have been thinkin it for a long time now.

or stick him on the cover of a Smiths single.

I like Johnny Mar's guitar playing, but I've never been much of a Smiths or Morrissey fan

I would think you would find some solidarity with a fellow celibate.

There's always been a problem (in the British press at least) with bands that have black humour in them. The Smiths are a case in point. Very funny, lots of self-deprecating humour, but it doesn't add up to miserable. I can't believe it took me until last year to realise that Bauhaus aren't a terrible goth band, and in fact goth isn't necessarily a bad thing (it's the fans that are the problem...). Humour in music, for the press, seems to be about "HEY HEY!!!! WACKY WACKY WACKY!!!!!" rather than actually being funny. Actual comedy music is very difficult. I have a new thread brewing...

Alien Sex Fiend are the ultimate hilarious goth band solely because you can tell they are poking fun out of love for the trappings of their interests.

Get you.Thread is welocme.But i'm hungry.I'm ooking something at last.ElectrelenaeeeeE;lectrea.hejhepoij;oujou;ou
