Morrissey - `Redondo Beach`

[wolfcolon]

I love Morrisey, but i prefer the original version of Patti Smith. Moz plese come to Argentine, we love you.

[jggraphx]

haha!!.. to funy i live in Redondo<3Beach LOL!!

[luke100395]

beautifull,emotional and sad.

[gustavaclavek]

8 people are gone gone

meu pau

[KingCast65]

Jesus what a cover. Perfect song for him to cover, wow I never knew he did this.

BTW I'm 45 so came up with the Smiths back in the day, love all kinds of music, classic rock to punk, jazz, etc.

[jonsilence]

Most likely talking about the Portofino Inn in King Harbor

[buttplug101]

1:10 sounds like he is singing with chocolate on their faces, lol

[missZiggy549]

It's better when a girl sing it, because it's about a girl ;)

[dantevisceral]

@missZiggy549 like a lot of Morrisseys music it is about love, tragedy, and yearning, it's universal, gender should not be a factor

[missZiggy549]

@dantevisceral That's not what I ment. This is not bad, I like him, but when Patti sings it it's different from a lot of other songs, and this version of redondo beach, because it's a wonan singing it to another woman. Lesbian attraction.

That's a fact, not a part of the gender question. xx

[mliaspengren]

@missZiggy549 lesbian attraction? patti is singing about her sister in this song.

btw, this version is ok, but not nearly as good as patti's!

[missZiggy549]

@mliaspengren If you say so... but what sister? kimbo and linda hasn't made any suside attemps as far as I know :3

[mliaspengren]

@missZiggy549 it's about linda. patti and her had a quarrel, linda disappeared which made patti very anxious. she then wrote this song about what she was afraid would happen. (luckily linda didn't commit suicide, patti showed her this song when she got back and if i remember correctly they then decided never to leave a fight unsolved.)

[quizmark]

this is a Patti Smith song.

Morrissey does'nt do it justice. But at least it shows that he has

some taste in music.

Patti Smith>Morrissey

[daveke27]

@quizmark Patti Smith > Morrissey? Not in a million years my friend. Although I do respect anyone's opinion. :)

[GrlLeastLikelyTo]

@daveke27 I second your opinion. Love this version, but I don't like Patti Smith's version at all...

then again my opinion is biased, if Morrissey made a recording of himself belching the alphabet song I would think it was wonderful.

[Davkiller69]

>.> lol this my fav song of Patti Smith

and having Morrissey covering it :3

is a bliss :3

[grenna2010]

Crap compared to Pattis oringinal version

[MrSueVeneer]

The only man alive I admire.

[barranquillababe]

is it me....or do the first strings of rubber ring echo this somewhat???

[throopnyc]

not bad. simon would have hated it.  but i give him credit for doing a patti song.

[missZiggy549]

realy good, I still prefer Patti Smith tho...

[rivs59]

Hell ya, this is cool!!!!!!!!!

[smallman727]

redondo beach local

[snakeeyesss11]

Everyone was singing, girl is washed up

On Redondo Beach and everyone is so sad.

I was looking for you, are you gone gone ?

Pretty little girl, everyone cried.

She was the victim of sweet suicide.

[Zealant]

STOP CHANGING THE FUCKING VOLUME

[dwy07]

I Dont, its the way it is...and its recorded LIVE, so you get different levels.....sorry about that.

[Zealant]

My 'Live At Earls Court' CD doesn't sound like that at all.

[written12]

I love Patti's version-probably more than Dear Moz's- but what a pleasure to hear all the words. I mean, Patti's diction made a good half of the word unintelligible to me.

Actually, this is a very good version- it's a man singing. Patti's singing style is so distinctive it would be daft for anyone to try to imitate it.

[robfry100]

who's version is best is really not an issue here...one is a one-off at a concert (tho Moz is awesome)the other was on HORSES!!

Short album i'll admit but not bad one on it

[dcarr84]

Is he well now?

[dwy07]

yes, but he needs to rest...do bigger venues, but less concerts....say Manchester, Liverpool, London,Newcastle,Glasgow, 2 big concerts in each venue,instead of small ones,where the ticket touts get all the tickets...he would fill them.

[dcarr84]

He has quite a fan base in the USA. We always welcome him down here in south Florida.

[MrRialto]

i love this song......hello morrissey fans,he never dissapoints

[pluckdaduck]

Morrissey is absoultely BRILLIANT

[ingridsusan]

Amo a este hombre con todo mi corazon, el le da sentido a cada dia de mi vida con sus hermosas canciones y con todo su ser, lo adoro .

[dcarr84]

standing shock on my face.

[brilliantXdelirium]

i love Patti Smith, but i actually prefer this version!

viva Moz

[hutchymcfc]

Quality tune, never heard the patti smith one tho Morrissey is awesome

[doroteinamama]

baš dobra pjesma, čak odlična!!!!

[Tarica2]

je, je! :D

[amber4reece]

i love this song

but is really depressing

plz say if u agree?

xxxxxxxxxx

[dwy07]

i think its a sad song,about losing the love of his life..not really depressing.

[amber4reece]

i know wot u mean but it kinda is cos he's talkin about wen her body got takin away

[dcarr84]

It's so dismal.

[Leviathan1309]

Damn that was nice. Great tribute to Patti - who can sing a Patti song?

[dwy07]

Moz has a very good go at one...did it alright dont you think?

[ConnieMoz]

Sorry but hands down Moz sounds better!!!!!!! The Moz Father Rules!!!!

[smithsfan92]

morrissey's voice is amazing in this cover. not as good as patti's though

[proprint2005]

just listned to the patti smith one, i think they are both very different, but both very good!!!!

[joseitsme]

I grew up going to Redondo Beach, very beautiful and expesive community of L.A. area.

[italoozzie]

Patti Smith......the original and the best!

[neilharpe]

cant make my mind up  if morrrissseys or pattis is the best .its hard to take to make the choice between a manc twang or nycv twang. great song though

[kgis17]

i know.

it is a thing called OBSESSION

:D

[dcarr84]

Check out Live at earls court part 4 . Quite a show.

[cromozzer]

[dwy07]

yes it is a good one,but Moz doesn`t do bad covers, "Thats Entertainment" live is another great one.
