[marfawkah02]

GONG!

[HandsomeDevil70]

This song is a classic...I'm not gay but I love this man to death...I've liked him since the heady daysof The Smiths. Mozzer is a iving legend!

One of Morrissey's best songs ever. Never got the recognition it deserved.

[deribard12]

very good song............

[Diablo112687]

Morrissey kicks ass. Hearing people with balls this large gives me hope.

[jagger1001]

it's a miracte i made it this far

[IchbinSchalker]

Morrissey's songs always improve my self-esteem.

[vinen]

Years of Refusal kicks ass!!!!!!!!

[badgleylinda]

Oh wow what an excellent song by an excellent man... I love this song. It would take a genius to figure out and compose those words into a brillient song and tune just love it!

[timewillprove]

"peel it back and bite me" indeed Morrissey.

[globalnova]

love the gong at the end..

Intelligent Rock for intelligent fans.

[hkjmagicsox]

OMG!! I'm actually GOBSMACKED at how rude you've been to me?! How dare you!! How could I have known if you were really interested in Morrissey or not? If you're not interested in my reply, WHICH I DIDN'T HAVE TO WRITE, then you could've just ignored it rather than be SO DISRESPECTFUL!! I spent HOURS replying to YOU. I can't be blunt nor ignorant. DO FORGIVE my being so DECENT & for my inability to read minds. IF YOU APPARENTLY know Moz SOOOO WELL-WHY ASK? You'd have KNOWN it was about HIMSELF?!

[theselector]

You're Daft!!!!

[hkjmagicsox]

Oh really..??! You are a complete & utter ignorant, nasty, disrespectful imbecile of the highest order.. Go away.. Get a life & stop wasting my time.. Bye now...!!!!!!!!

[CarlLikes]

Try loosening your hat

[KtotheY77]

You are so wrong.

[Panthera0nca]

Oh dear I wish I hadn't come here for this is total self indulgence and pretty pathetic really, I'd rather remember him as he was.

[iwokeuphalfundressed]

@Panthera0nca It's cool, I feel the same way. I try to like it, but I don't... except for a few songs. This thing he's done.. becoming an easy rock Sinatra of sorts, it sucks.

[LamourNeDurePas]

@Panthera0nca

WTF? Years Of Refusal is a fantastic album.

[THESM1THS]

maybe Michael J***son was singing this to his physician

[frankie7011]

SImBiGG

[333snottbox333]

is this song about Effexor?, anyone who takes it will know what i mean.....

[SoapClawtooth]

First time i heard this on the radio I was only half-listening and thought he'd sang 'Something is squeezing my scrote'. Which, for morrissey, is entirely possible.

[norsef]

Great, now I'm hearing that,

Thanks a bunch.

[nattt23]

Hahaha! True!

[Morethanbobsonofbob]

@SoapClawtooth .....lol thank you....I just nearly spat beer all over my keyboard when I read your comment.......genius.

[michealbarone]

Don!t be shy morrissey for brixton this friday night !! michael

[lordcrumpton69]

just got back from seeing him live and was awsome as fuck!!!!

[cbernalh]

A perfect song.

[niniaahh]

I LOVE HIS NEW ALBUM, IS AWESOME :D

[zoetropez]

I was blown away when I first heard it. I think it's his best album in 15 years easy. And it rocks.

[liochana]

Simon Says: ahi me baje al queridisisisisimo morrissey. que si me quiere, me dejo. solo con él hago la excepcion, posta. si, si, si-

Diazapam

Valium

Tarmazpam

Lithium

HRT

ECT

How long must I stay on this stuff?

Please don't give me more

[insomniacsuicide]

its not "dont give me anymore" its "dont gimmie anymore"... it means "dont cry anymore"

[insomniacsuicide]

excuse me, i think i was wrong....

[mennoir]

you sure? i thought it was about "don't give me anymore medication"

[hkjmagicsox]

Mennoir : It does mean 'Don't give me any more med or treatment' He suffers from depression and had a nervous breakdown..Now, he's had enough and wants to get on and get to the finish line on his own without any more medication or medical intervention.

[theselector]

Are u talking about Morrissey or the "character" in the song.

[hkjmagicsox]

Hi the selector.

Part 1: Morrissey himself..Of course, if questioned, would most probs say it's a character & a message on behalf of those affected by mental health problems..Which I don't mean in a disrespectful way..As he does have a big heart & would do that for others to help stop the stigma..What I mean is that he is so private that he would never discuss such a personal & delicate subject of his own issues.(Continued @ Part 2)

[hkjmagicsox]

Part 2: As I'm sure you're well aware..He has only ever done a maximum of half a dozen interviews..In his entire career & he never discusses his personal life..Please don't think I'm being arrogant or offensive to you..Absolutely not at all..But your message seemed to me that you would be really interested to know..

If I'm wrong & it was just a simple question of who I was discussing..Then my apologies for rambling on & on. (Continued @ Part 3)

[hkjmagicsox]

Part 3: I'm a massive Morrissey fan & have been since The Smiths very first hit the scene..I've researched a lot for many, many years & found & read very much about him..& of course I couldn't possibly write it all on here..However, the one thing, which I'm hoping you were looking for in answer to your question, is that he has been quoted for saying that all of his songs relate to events from his own life. (Continued @ Part 4)

[hkjmagicsox]

Part 4: Moz being Moz..As he had been asked this same question repeatedly..Eventually stated that he would not go into any great detail..But that he very much appreciated his fans & thought it only fair, for them showing so much interest & thoughtfulness in him as a person as well as his music..They or should I say We..deserved some form of answer to this so often asked question..That he would say this much..That every song relates to some event or time in his own life. (Continued @ Part 5)

[hkjmagicsox]

Part 5: Although not ever saying anything in exact..which songs..particular lyrics..or explaining his way of getting his thoughts across..and so on..Which are all very thought provoking & extremely cleverly done, in my opinion..The one thing they are not is plain, basic, black & white statements..!!! He expresses himself in his very unique way & if you really listen then you will hear these messages..without Morrissey being obvious in any way, that it be him he's discussing. (Completed @ Part 6)

[hkjmagicsox]

Part 6 & Final Part of my response: Personally, which of course, is simply in my humble opinion..I think that Morrissey is an absolute genius, a true gentleman & of extraordinary talent and I think that every last piece of recognition & success he has, is 100% truly, well deserved..For me personally, the man is quite simply..A LEGEND. ( I really hope that this reply is what you were hoping for ?? That you are happy to read so much about Morrissey and that I've not bored you to tears...!!!!!! )

[theselector]

Way Too much information for a simple question. The only reason I asked was BECAUSE of your quote: "He suffers from depression and had a nervous breakdown"......You said HE SUFFERS from depression BUT you didn't specify if you meant Morrissey or the 'Character' in the song. A simple answer of "The character in the song" would suffice.... didn't need an ESSAY. You're obviously obsessed with Morrissey.....BTW he's done much more that ONLY half a dozen interviews in his WHOLE career....much more!!

[mansell863]

Jadore my favourate on the new album but that will probly change =]

[STEAMBOLT]

best morrissey song in years

[poorringo]

This should be the first single with Paris as the b-side.

[ellycat]

Good guess. Paris was the first single and this is the second :-)

[brianbcfc12]

well after first watching the smiths in nov 1983 until the final on 12/12/86 and going and spending much dosh watching MOZ throughout the world am i the only one to think this is a well a little poor???? for the standards were used too from possibly the greatest living legend

[anonymice14]

I agree.

[repskak]

I don't agree. Maybe because I am younger than you (???). I see a lot of quality and charm in every part of Morrisseys (and The Smiths) career, from which I have a quite big album and single collection, and really like what I've heard from "Refusal" as well.

[Echothebunnyman1]

something is squeezing my skull when i listen to this! love the song and love Morrissey.

[InmindEmpires]

[redders9999]
