Hi, I was wondering (because l'm constantly having to defend my fondness of him to people) what your thoughts on Russell Brand are? Sorry, I know it's a bit weird and not really tailored towards your blog but he's tight with Moz, so I wondered if you have any strong opinions either way? - Anonymous
I quite like him, actually. I find his personality a little overwhelming at times, but he also comes across as quite eloquent and intelligent, and of course, his unashamed adoration of Morrissey is dead sweet. :)
hi! do you know where i could find the 60 min video of morrissey on the cutting edge on mtv?? - samotnagwiazdaI’m afraid I don’t! I’ve never seen it myself, and I’ve yet to find it anywhere. To be honest, I’m not even sure the full segment was ever broadcast! I know a 60 minute version was recorded, but nobody seems to have actually seen more than the couple of
who are your favourite bands or singers except Morrissey or the smiths? - AnonymousOh gosh…I have tonnes. Off the top of my head: The Monochrome Set, The Monkey Run, Buzzcocks, Magazine, Ludus, The Clash, The Jam, Electronic, New Order, Joy Division, Depeche Mode, Gary Numan/Tubeway Army, The Cure, B-Movie, James, Talking Heads, The Associates, Big Country, Bob Dylan, Suzanne Vega, Chris Isaak, Billy Fury, Roy Orbison, Herman’s Hermits, The Kinks, and probably at least a dozen more that will make me later think, ‘crap, I can’t believe I forgot to mention ______’.
I also like quite a lot of classical music, particularly piano pieces. And depending on my mood, I’ll also occasionally dabble in jazz/blues, swing, trance, dark ambient…and Irish pub songs. ;)
hey i'm that annon who wanted some songs suggestions for her little brother, my brother is obsessed with these three songs: "barbarism begins at home" - "bigmouth strikes again"- and of course "ask" , he loves dancing these songs, and he loves the way morrissey *howling* in the song "barbarism" thank you so much now i have a smiths-fan brother :) - AnonymousAww, that’s so cute. And of course, you’re welcome! :)
Aha, at last, a version of the original 1992 You magazine cover without all the text…thanks, random 2003 British TV listings magazine. :)
So very beautiful. ♥
What's your favorite Smiths song? - floatinginablackballoon‘The hand that rocks the cradle’, and ‘How soon is now?’ - I can’t choose between the two, because even though I actually like the former slightly more, the latter has so much sentimental meaning for me. It was the first Smiths song I ever heard, nearly 16 years ago now.
Excerpt from Tarantula, by Bob Dylan.
Johnny Marr’s taste in literature pleases me so much. ♥
Philosophy student, library slave, Irish-Australian vegetarian asexual and probably a walking cliché. Bunburyist; omphaloskeptic; existentialist; back bedroom casualty. Interested in beat poetry, Greco-Roman mythology, Twin Peaks and the 1966 Batman series. Obsessed with Morrissey and Johnny Marr to the point of madness. I can't dance.
