This album is turning out to be something quite special. So glad to be hearing all these new tracks. Certainly influenced by Cemetry Gates, but I’m not complaining.
I saw him in Brooklyn last November and they played this song, set to a slide show projection of him with David Bowie, Tom petty, and a few other artists, and in that moment my heart broke for him. Such a beautiful man.
That’s because in the recorded version, his voice is On Top of the music, and he sounds Disconnected From The Music. This version, his voice is INSIDE the music. Definitely more connected.
Hurry and get that album out Moz because I'd like to hear it and I don't want to stick around on this earth with the humans for much longer. I'd like to go back to my home planet where I belong.
It's like Morrissey has had a late boost in life and has turned back the clock. Thank you for working so hard at this time in your life through thick and thin Moz, it is very much appreciated.
That’s exactly right. The guitar solo at the end is particularly Sundays-like. The whole song is fantastic. Great chord changes, base line, vocals and lyrics.
He isn't being sarcastic. He really misses his generation x friends. Sometimes it's hard to get the meaning of his songs, but the honestly misses them.
Gen X started in 65. Mozza born 58. And I believe that this is one of Moz’ literary devices - a double entendre on both words, literally& as band names. And of course he loves them. Listen to his concert Subway Train intro to EILS. In your fay-ay-ay-ay-ayayace! In my own way I will always be true to Moz. 😊
I wonder how many times he sings and laments the lack of a Marr riff that would have nailed any of these tunes sending them into the stratosphere, but sadly no mo marr. Marr's the pity? (Moz would appreciate that line..)
His best song in years. Huge Smiths and early Moz fan but havent really been into/listened to much of his stuff post-Ringleaders. Tried listening to Dog On A Chain last week - truly awful. This, however, is excellent!
Capitol Records (Los Angeles) will release Morrissey’s ‘Bonfire of Teenagers’ in February 2023. The album will be released worldwide except for the United Kingdom, where there is no label deal. ‘Bonfire of Teenagers’ is produced by Grammy-producer Andrew Watt, and was recorded in Los Angeles.
i'm sorry, but i don't understand why morrissey is still dependent on labels. nowadays, you can release an lp online if you want to. morrissey's financial possibilities should also allow releases as lp or cd. independence is essential for an artist who has something to say. i have all of morrrissey's cd's, but i would also be ok with an online release. if that would guarantee freedom of expression.
SteVo, Can You imagine how much better it is going to be when I can sit in a room and sing with you instead of sitting on the jon in the water closet in the bathroom singing with you on My phone or tablet? I imagine that it will be great since All'ah I can do IS imagine it NOW
This dude gets pissed when Johnny Marr talks about The Smiths but he copies a Johnny Marr riff “Cemetery Gates”. Without Johnny Marr there is no Smiths! Arrogant as always walks off the stage in 49 degree weather! So glad Johnny Marr went his separate ways and followed his passion. Best thing he has ever done!
Fwiw, Johnny said he was gonna throw away Cemetry Gates riff till Morrissey said it should be a song. see interview in Mozipedia. But yea I wish him well 🏌🏾
