Morrissey - Moon River (Introducing Morrissey)

[xelexpunx]

i can cry with this.

[fabLA59]

@charleswroth0 yeah he's little out of tune sometimes, but still wonderfull, it's the way moz sing, you love it or hate it there's no possible in between I think, and yeah there's no reason to delete your comment, it's your opinion after all

[TheDiamond2007]

@charleswroth0 I suspect you're missing the point.

[charleswroth0]

@TheDiamond2007 Could be. What point would that be?

[warholdealer53]

almost sounds like he breaks up at 2:16...sad song, for sure...

sounds like something he could have written...probably wishes he did

[warholdealer53]

sounds like something he would have written himself...probably wishes he had

[NIGGATOOTH]

another one of my favorites of all time. good stuff

[Meigaaviles]

Could his voice be more perfect?? I don't think so.

[TheFlirtaAlberta]

@Meigaaviles Well, he might try singing a little less sharp.

[xarabas]

Moz ♥

[SuperRUDOLPH123]

MORRISSEY...... I LOVE YOU

[ShannonVenasse]

love it!

[GingerStepson]

Superb version of this wonderful song.

[MmeCylinder]

This crowd sounds like a bunch of proud owners of the tickets to the show, not group of people who have just herad most heartrending and beautiful piece of music. The cheerfull applause at the end is so god damn tragically ironic.

[narcissa912]

This... is something so beautiful. I sometimes have this version on loop...

[rjlamerton]

love morrissey, love this song, terrible performance!

[mozluver99]

Sums it up. . .

[moz79]

moon river oh my bieautiful song best singer all over the world i cry when i hear you voice morrissey .. than you

[Rodjeure]

I sing it every day to my 3 year old boy when he go to bed .

I'm not as good as Morrissey but my son doesn't make the difference and he loves the song.

[jennyjacobs1]

Such a prettily sad and romantic song...perfect for Morrisey

[markydeeks]

Every beautiful song should have someone in the background playing guitar with their teeth,

[41htdex]

I hate when I meet a new friend and Im trying to show them, music, arts, books, and there totally oblivious, or they start talking in the middle of some great music.

[markydeeks]

@41htdex omg me too!!!! makes you want to punch them, and you don't wanna say anything to them incase you sound like you've disapeared up your own arse, philistines!!

[Chammy92243]

I always thought this song was about dying

[1559godhead]

that girl at 0.50 is a star. i´d marry someone as soulful as her.

[PHANTASTIKMUSIK]

I just got the chills...

[bescotbabes2]

seems like morrisseys crying at the end

[daveke27]

<3 Brings a tear into my eye. And that says it all

[someaccount666]

What a beautiful song!

[Lunatic4Bizcas]

Leave it to Morrissey to do the best cover of this classic song that has ever been done!

[bobjoshilly]

it seems after marr left the band his voice sounds so much sadder than meat is murder

[skitful]

AMAZING!!

[sucramnormark]

1:34 ???

[drattswhereitsat]

yeah what's up with that?

[havocmanfilms]

See Breakfast at Tiffany's. It's from the film.

[havocmanfilms]

You need to see Breakfast at Tiffany's. Then you will understand.

[macaronimary]

sweet

[bodczar]

how come,its always just around the bend?

[aleisaii]

of another artist almost 100 years ago,

"his lips will speak of the lyrical blue flower hidden in the heart of every young man, of the dreaming youth he had been. His face bears the lines of searching dust,& his mind has experienced more than the sensibility and pain which he no longer fears."

How recent is this? I had no idea morrissey could still make me cry.

[JazMenaDoe]

i just died...this is so amazing

[ihavetopee32]

HIS BEAUTY IS BEYOND TIME!

[robgeorge87]

that cock who jumps up on stage ruins moz's flow

[Brettmorrisseysuede]

listen to this on "world of morrissey" ace version it really is better than this one.

[geokaplan1]

ooo..."pitch" Ouch this hurts.

[SusannaG74]

the sob in the beginning is somewhat pathetic. morrissey rocks!

[jorocio]

This song won the Oscar for best orignal song and/or score from "Breakfast At Tiffanny's" in 1961 for Henry Mancini/Johnny Mercer and a Oscar nomination for Audrey Hepburn for best actress. This happens to be my all time favorite love story by Truman Capote.

[popboy0]

This song has been around for more than 40 years. Every crooner has recorded it. From Andy Williams to Shirley Bassey. And recently Katie Melua.

Morrisey has done the most bizarre of all versions. The crying is Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's. The scene where she learned by a letter his soldier brother has died.

[lazysun1]

This is just so beautiful. Really moving.

[roxyepoxy1988]

ummmm dude below me obviously doesnt fucking know whats up. perhaps this live version doesnt sound as good, but if you listen to just the song, its really really beautiful. epic in fact.

[RikyRiks]

ive allways been a fan of Morrissey,but am afraid he fails with this song,making it sound unromantic......leaten to Simon Ford singing Moon River,and see what i mean.

[kevshev]

Whaddafuq, be quiet you cretin. Who are you to impose your absurd opinons with such aggression? I am a lifelong fan of Morrissey, a huge fan of Sinatra (who made the song famous), a huge admirer of Mark Twain and an English literature student. I assure you that the original lyrics are lovely and Morrissey's reworking is interesting, unfortunately both are probably beyond the comprehension of someone who's vocabulary consists largely of inane profanities.

[hunclemike]

Relax fancypants, take a breath! Maybe the fella just didn't like it? You are a rude bastard yourself. Is that consider an inane profanity?

[NickOLarse999]

I am a sociology student and I assure you that you are a lifelong bigheaded tosser.

[acsilvaac]

O vídeo está muito bom...

[Muribelle]

No he didnae ya square! He changed the lyrics

[Whaddafuq]

Moz wrote this song.

[IStehSHIT]

but its freking true, he rewrote it

[Muribelle]

The crying is Audrey Hepburn in the film right? I love this song and I never knew that Morrissey sung it. Its really beautiful and melancholic so it suits his voice. I also like the fact that he changed the somewhat sentimental lyrics. Heh heh.

[katypage1992]

Who are those people blowing in his ear?

[can you reply back in my comment profile please i never get them on here

[MitchGambino]

The crying is funny.

[Whaddafuq]

It's not funny...its moving, its touching. Please don't trivialize this song and the sampling...it is too special and too sacred for so many of us.

[jorocio]

It's not funny when you loose someone to war, like a brother. If you watch the movie you won't think it funny.

[MitchGambino]

Okay, dude, I have seen Breakfast at Tiffany's. And I did think it was a little funny and that she was kind of kooky. You have to admit, some of the things she did made it seem like she had mental problems. Also, you spelled "lose" wrong. o.0

[ellyunfortunetly]

Havn't yu herd opf typo's?

[sloanesquareer]

xD

I love you xD

[Patrick1Bateman]

ye sheet hapenz

[bargainmom]

I like the crying, too--the whole point is that this is a sad song, but it is too loud compared to the vocal and distracting.

[Mozzer232]

I love this version, but I always kind of wished that he kept the original lyrics.

[hodges123]

Nah I like the lyric changes. The original are too cheesy I think for this effort!

[Whaddafuq]

original lyrics? the phrase "my huckleberry friend" is ridiculous and has no place in a song of this magnitude

[Mozzer232]

its one of my favorite songs ever from a movie. I love this version, I'm just saying I love the original lyrics. I don't find them ridiculous whatsoever.

[Whaddafuq]

I'll find whatever I want to find ridiculous, motherfucker. I think you're ridiculous to think that the original lyrics are not ridiculous. Please fall off a high cliff, motherfucker.

[angelicboy66]

my two idols, Audrey and Morrissey

[MartiniDarling]

I like the crying.

[SheWalksInBeauty]

Oh God, I love his version of this.

Beautifully captures the underlying tone of the whole song.

However, like as stated before..I was someone distracted by the inhuman weeping shoved in at random spots.

[naveenlamb]

The performance is great, I wish someone hadn't dubbed those stupid crying noises over it.

[Weepingwine1]

It is Audrey Hepburn crying in "Breakfast at Tiffany's" I agree with you - it doesn't add to Moz's heartfelt performance of this classic song.

[Whaddafuq]

You are so wrong, its unreal.

[mozzery]

the crying is actually part of the performance.
