@Ulmeyda08 American mainstream media is completely retarded just like British mainstream media. Unless you want your own identity to be associated directly with whatever comes out of the talking heads of mainstream media in your country, you should think twice about accepting American mainstream media as representative of Americans. It is representative of global marketing interests and politicians, not the people on the street.
@Flowerblood It does, and it has reason to. I cant be okay with myself until I leave America, I don't want to support this hypocritical nation. I just hope you know there are a few people born in America that hate it just as much as the rest of the world. As for the Americans who are angry with those who hate us, look up the Monsanto corporation. You will hate America just as much once you see what we are really doing to the rest of the world. Don't support the industry, and educate yourselves.
@Fallen80sChild I beg to differ Sir/Madam. America is the greatest nation on God's earth. America taught the world, how to speak, how to think, how to be real, how to be imaginative, how to create. No other nation has pioneered the train of freedom before America. I think you are being manipulated by garbage like Michael Moore. Come join the real America, our souls are free not heavy with guilt and corruption like the traitorous, treasonous Liberals.
@angels77100 I think you expected a backlash for your comments, and despite disagreeing I won't go mad with it. I have no idea who Michael Moore is, but I do know history, and historically (not to mention logically and socially) there is nothing in what you say.
@angels77100 Greatest nation on Gods earth... ?! Freedom, how to speak, taught the world what exactly?... Most of the people in America are still racist (especially down South), Nasa was run by Nazi scientists which were stole from Germany after the war, there has been more cover ups and and stupid wars orchestrated by your country to gain control of money and power than any other country I can think of!
@Freakstorm66 You didn't think very hard did you sir/madam? Let's start with England shall we? Your problem is, you've no imagination. Living under your dirty grey skies, in those tiny little miserable boxes you call homes, with your government taking everything away from you, and thinking you're alright because they've given you the pathetic NHS. With your disgusting food, totally out-of-date music scene and no talented athletes. Yeah you're in a real position to talk Buddy!
Clearly you've never stepped foot in the UK, no talented athletes? We have 4 world boxing champions for a start, and the most successful league in football/soccer, we've got a rich musical history and a very beautiful landscape.
Actually, nevermind, i just realized you were a fat Christian who worked at McDonalds and probably admires the noble art of fisting one's grandson in the bath tub, haha.
@GilbertSyndrome Everything that you know, own, acknowledge, imagine or are influenced by is straight from the United States of America, the greatest nation in the world. Stop eating the food you eat, drink, music you listen to, clothes that you wear, tv that you watch, movies that you watch & you'll be left with sweet fuck all. And get off the internet, that's American as well. True everything you have is 30 years behind us, but remember we were doing what you are doing now, only 30 years ago.
The foodd i eat comes from Britain, and the music i listen to is British, haha. The American music i listen to is influenced by British pop and punk.
It must really irk you to know that you have English blood flowing through your veins, and that you're sat there speaking English, using words stolen from Shakespeare.
You ARE the product of Britain, and if you're even a day over the age of 15 then you should be embarrassed by your lack of common sense.
@GilbertSyndrome The food you eat is from Britain? What the pot noodle (a meal in a cup) or alphabet spaghetti hoops? Ok that's your diet sorted out, because that's all the British have contributed to the world of cuisine. The British 'pop' scene is completely gay dude, seriously. Also I'm Irish-American, and there's no such thing as English. The Real English are the Welsh. The English are nomads. I'm ashamed of you calling yourself a Scouser, yet defending the English.
No, i'm a boxer you muppet, haha, i eat fresh British produce and British sourced meat. Try again.
Irish American? I bet you've never even been to Ireland, the Irish ARE the English you fool, haha. I'm Scottish, Welsh and Irish, my family were descended from the McGilchrist, lords of Scotland, learn some history before making yourself look foolish, no wonder you work at Mcdonalds.
I am a Scouser, i'm not defending the English, i'm just putting a silly sod in there place.
@GilbertSyndrome Do you honestly believe I'm going to list my real occupation? McDonalds is a joke between me & another youtuber. You say you're Irish, Scotch & Welsh, so you can't be all bad. They are the real Britains. The McGilchrist were lowlanders who allowed the English into Scotland alongside the bastard Campbell traitors. Far from me having to research history, you buddy need to look into your own family. Defending the fucking English & you a celt? Scousers are cool, but you sir?
I don't know, why wouldn't you list your real occupation? Is it a secret? Nope, the McGilchrists were lords of Scotland, they spread out to Wales and Ireland and a lot of the family dropped the "Mc" and simply became "Gilchrists."
You don't have a clue about my family or my roots, clearly. You're another ignorant American who takes the bible literally, i can't think of anything more embarrassing.
@GilbertSyndrome I could go on for years listing things that I find great about Liverpool & Scousers. But the most important thing about Scousers is their remarkable sense of humor. You buddy seem to have lost that, & you allowed the red mist to descend once I attacked the English. No real Scouser would defend the fucking English.
On the contrary, i have a great sense of humour, i find it particularly funny that you claimed that God made the Americans, haha, i wasn't aware that God was still making people so recently.
No real Scouser would defend the English? You don't know what a real Scouser is, you're a plastic "Irish American," which basically means that you pretend to enjoy Guinness on Paddy's day.
No real mature adult who claims to be christian would spend their time on YT slating people.
By the looks of it, you spend your time trying to insult people on Youtube anonymously. Cowards are a dime a dozen on here, faceless cretins with no confidence and a chip on their shoulder because they're either victims of bullying or plain old bitter about being dealt a bad hand.
You lack even the most basic common sense and all of your anti-English banter is basically a weak attempt at making yourself feel better about the fact that you're a pointless no hoper.
@GilbertSyndrome Yeah you got me buddy, you got real good. I am a loser, no life piece of shit who doesn't deserve life. I was bullied because I was fat, had ginger hair, wore braces & glasses, & stunk of ginger sweat. My mom had to cover me with a factor-50 before she could even turn a light on in the trailer cuz my skin was so pale. I have had sex. (it was with a magazine, but it was a girl so I'm not gay). McDonalds only hired me cuz they felt sorry for me I guess. Now please leave me alone.
Huh?...how did this end up in a verbal war? What does all of this have to do with morrissey's video? I love my country and I love the UK so what is the problem? I thought we were chums (:
@Flowerblood - Hello Sunshine! Speak for yourself, you are the first Brit I have had the ghastly experience to "speak" to that was ever so sad. You are a miserable example of your countrymen and I'm sure most of them would be embarrassed of your person. I feel sorry for your aching soul. Maybe you need to follow Morrissey's lead and move to Los Angeles...get some sunshine! It's okay though, I realize there's a rotten apple in every bunch and someone has got to be it, that's you pal.
Morrissey has matured and his music has naturally followed. I still think "You Are The Quarry" is his best effort to date, every single track is a masterpiece.
I suppose I shouldn't be shocked that somehow a Smiths YouTube video has turned into a WWII commentary -sigh. Morrissey is a brilliant, heartfelt and talented musician. Kudos if he has found a new, more positive direction for his music but gods, what an amazing influence, talent and "Charming Man".
boy, they really teach you boys a bunch of crap in school...if the U.S. hadn't entered the war (yes, and the soviets, too)..you all wouldn't have your little princes and princesses to fawn over, and let's not forget the queen.....you guys need to get over yourselves....we saved your assess...you were getting a slap from Germany...they were bombing your shit nightly as your grandparents were huddled in their houses with the lights off...show some gratituted...don't hate, appreciate. cheers!
@mcdstuff I guess you were still running down yer mum's leg when Germany was bombing the bejeezus out of your squalid little island and the US had to come in and save your collective "arses"...go read a history book, mate....
Answer: December 7th 1941, the day that Pearl Harbour was attacked the Japs and Nazis declared war on the US (not the other way round). Prior to that the US was shipping 'Material' to help the Allies, this Lend Lease programme 41-45 $31.4 billion of help to Britain alone.
But that loan was repaid, every penny with interest! (took till 2006). America was dragged into the war by their enemies not their allies!
stfu. she spoke like 3 fuckin times. watch the fukin video cus that's what you searched for and keep those hateful comments in your british rotten teeth mouth!!
The America haters are pretty funny. They obviously don't know that Morrissey is a United States resident- I guess *he* doesn't hate Americans.
He lives in a gorgeous Spanish-Colonial in L.A. while haters back in the world's dreariest has-been empire repeat hackneyed insults at Americans (whom they've never met) but nary an unkind word to their Muslim invaders and future Sharia enslavers because that would be prejudiced- but not prejudiced against Americans? COWARDS.
@GimpSuit99 Lol I believe the reaction of annoyance is only to the accent. Haters of Britain are funnier because there is more to be admired about a country which didn't recruit greatness.
We really are quite nice about America. You should get a harder time from us if anything.
@GimpSuit99 Really? Somehow on most videos I come across there'll be at least one Brit complaining about them dirty filthy muslim paki invaders. I'm not even talking about political videos, as you can see here a simple album preview from the past has prompted a nationalist debate. Youtube comments seem to bring all of our oh so enlightened patriots to the yard.
@GimpSuit99 Idiot, he lives in Rome now. Look it up, he moved a few years ago. He became fed up with Los Angeles's bullshit. I live in LA, I understand why he left.
dont you think its b wrong to judge a whole nation on one or two peoples accent, dont forget there are many states in the u.s and im not sure how many exactly but alot have different accents, just like in the uk, with the mancs scousers brummys cockneys jordys etc etc etc
this reporter does have a annoying voice but her cousin in texas might have a more appealing accent so to say the american accent is annoying you would pretty much just have to dislike the whole population
@DJDanielPeterson According to "Morrissey and Marr: A Severed Alliance" by Johnny Rogan.. Marr really just wanted a break.. no one called anyone else... and NME ran with the story that Marr had left the Smiths, and Morrissey said that the Smiths would carry on.. and then they didn't when Morrissey realized that no guitarist could replace Marr.
@theyellowsubmarine3 It is.. Johnny Rogan was one of the first "rock biographers" to take on the Smiths and try to document the history. Morrissey said something like "Personally I hope Johnny Rogan ends his days very soon in an M3 pile-up." but the book seems to give the best explanation of the breakup. And his credentials are hard to argue with..
Writing things like "Americans do my head in" makes you appear ignorant. The US can't be defined by the opinions of individuals, they differ too greatly from one to another. Good luck.
@dmngzrlnd : First of all, he has never come out to affirm that he is 'gay.' Also his music is absolute class. He is one of a kind and is world renown for his uncanny wit and amazing ability of employing poet prose into his songs in the most distinguished manner. Greasers love listening to his music, because of his aesthetically classic appeal and voice, which harkens back to another time in popular music. A time when charisma and subtle innuendo drew crowds of people to acts like Sinatra & Anka
@dmngzrlnd : Before judging the man based on heresy or popular opinion, try listening to his music and delve into his back catalogue of work. Then you can truly think for yourself by making an informed judgement.
@dmngzrlnd wel then why would they listen to you iether your clearly a closet homosexual and i think you need biology lessons they dont lissen to his ass they listen to his voice jees maybey you should try stop talkin outa YOUR ass
Oh get lost you complete tit. I was making a harmless comment which I thought was quite positive, and you're picking me up on my punctuation? Get a life pal. Oh and if you must pick other peoples punctuation apart, get yours right while you do it. A capital letter follows a full stop. Knob.
Who gives a fuck what country your from? Music is a universal language, like Maths. I love seeing the smiths gigs in countrys where most of the crowd dont even know what the words mean, but love the music all the same.
WTF is this woman talking about? She needs to read between the lines of her flashcards, this man is an extremely intelligent and FUNNY man. He is not depressed, he is a genius! The writers of that entire voice over rant should piss off!
Indeed. Morrissey has never been depressed really. Just honest and down to earth, which is probably not very common in some parts!! So yes, i agree with you,
He could probably do Vegas honestly in about 5 more years. Espically if he added some of Sinatra/Rat Pack songs to his song list....like the way he did with "Moon River"
@patcaboli Tosser, the RAF secured the skies and won the battle of britain preventing operation sea lion. You never saved us, the soviets took eastern front by themselves , Britain took north africa, why are most americans such cunts?
@Ulmeyda08 I think it's rich some big-mouthed, fat-headed cunt like patcaboli lecturing others to "speak proper english (sic)" after using a word like 'gratituted'.
Watch him read this & come back with some impotent threat of kicking my "assess". XD
Two years ago I reported Estefan Enterprises to the FBI, but the biggest disappointment was when GLORIA and EMILIO ESTEFAN confessed that they knew about, and agree with, everything that has been going on in their companies.
For more details search FRANK AMADEO and GLORIA ESTEFAN CRIMINAL on You Tube.
cant beat the mozzster. hes the most real and true person in the public eye. all these cunts on xfactor and all the shit in the charts makes me feel sick. all trash.
If anyone thinks 'Ringleader' is a bad album then they need to look themselves in a mirror and ask, 'Why am I such an unintelligent and musically inept moronic excuse for a human being,' and then throw away any Morrissey albums you have in your collection, for you do not deserve the satisfaction and gratification of hearing the legend that is Moz, sing. Idiots.
Oh, Life truly is a pigsty Morrissey, it truly is.
Yea I swear when it comes to acts like Morrissey or the Cure etc it seems like almost all the "music journalists" just check the work of earlier air headed music journalists to research the band so they just keep recycling the same vapid terminology like "Mope rock" & "Gloom merchant" and "the Pope of Mope" and all that garbage.. I think music journalists might be the one segment of the population that has zero understanding of what music is about at all
Everyone who actually listens to the music and cares about it understands better than the people who just oversimplify what it's about by mindlessly parroting ancient buzz words like "mope rock"
"The king of mope-rock"? Arrgh! These kind of stupid labels are what keep him from being played widely! He sings about more than just moping around, for crying out loud! :(
guesss im fortunate im a mancunian and in manchester since the begining of the smiths and have lived in nyc for last 15 years so i totally get morrisey he sings it like it is
well Moz i arranged for a black president for you just female and gay to go but dont let it make you too happy you might loose your self i much prefer the son and the heir of a shyness that is criminaly vulgar
Everyone says how sensitive Morrissey is. Yet he sang and wrote the song, "Unhappy Birthday." Morrissey is an antisocial creep, like most faggotsexuals are.
I didn't intend it that way, I'm sorry if u were offended, but 2 me it's not about race it' s about time & place. If u loved Moz during 80s of course ur view is as valid as mine or anyone else's, I just never knew he was big in the States/South America then. What I tried 2 say is, those who newly discover Morrissey & his back cataogue now, like Americans who've adopted him since he moved there, can't retrospectively form the same attachment to him as those who remember TheSmiths at their height
Americans can't ever REALLY get Moz, as teens today will never REALLY get him 'cos they weren't there! I know kids listen 2 TheSmiths & say they love them, but do they really?Not 2 be controversial, but the music of ur formative years is the only music u'll ever truly be emotionally connected to. When we were kids & TheSmiths were happenin was a magical time, can never be revisited, I love Moz now as I did then - completely! & it's not like any other love, this one is different because it's ours
You are completely, extremely, totally right!!!! I agree 1000% with you. You said the most deep truth about what happens with these kids of nowadays. The same happens with kids who are born nowadays and say they are punk because they like the Sex Pistols. It's very different from the people who was born on 60's or 70's and grew up seeing the Sex Pistols to emerge and to recede. That is, they've lived with the punk movement on its height, and today we live in a different cultural sphere.
i totally agree with you. i can't imagine my teenaged years without morrissey and the smiths. as crappy as the reagan era was i feel fortunate to have come of age in the 80s because of groups like the Smiths, Cocteau Twins, Dead Can Dance, This Mortal Coil, Siouxsie & the Banshees, i could go on.
oh poor me being from clueless,senseless america....we can't grasp anything because we're all fucking stupid!!!
dear sir,you have a very narrow mind and a very narrow perspective on music. how dare you say a person can't connect with something just because one wasn't there. you said it yourself....music is about emotions. that's like you telling everybody they would have to live on felt mountain to be emotionally connected goldfrapp's felt mountain.
overreacting methinks - if u really read what i said u'd realise i didn't say anything about Americans being stupid. I said it's difficult to appreciate something after the fact as much as someone who was actually there. I felt that The Smiths were a big influence on my teen years and Moz's success in America was more recent. I wouldn't deign to suggest any individual, wherever they're from couldn't appreciate him - only that the most recent wave of popularity wasn't equal to his initial impact
forgive me. but in the way you conveyed your comments,ignorance felt as if it was implied. just because a person didn't experience things as they happened and in person doesn't mean no one can't get it. it's self-explanatory....it's in the music. plus,morrissey is no passé fad in which his style and the emotions of his music fades...they're classic. and btw,if you feel that way,what does that say about many great artists that are influenced by those before them?
Of course people can be influenced by those who went before them. I don't see anything in what I said that negates that. Nor do I think Moz is a fad - I've loved him for over 20 years and show no signs of wavering . Can't you acknowledge though that something at its height, at its very peak of perfection, can never be recaptured or experienced to the same degree by anyone 10 or 20 years after the fact as it was felt by those who were there.
I grew up with The Smiths...in the 80's, in the USA. Of course, they didn't get radio play, other than non-public college stations, but we loved The Smiths. there are very few memorable events from my teen-years that do not include a Smiths song or album ..among other great bands of course.
I think to understand Morrissey u would have had to grow up i the 70s and 80s depresssion thatcher briton as to call him mope is bullshit as the music gets u wiggling round the room and the lyrics go straight from the head to the heart,sunny l.a dont no months and months of grey skys rain cold down right vile pale britain,its the same now but more gadgits to play with!from punk to new romantics to moz to the birth of the rave scene i can now find a place in my own country! smoke up turn it up!
She said morrissey broke up the smiths which is bullshit.
Johnny Marr took a break for 2 weeks and when he came back it was all over the tabloids saying he had quit,so he said fuck it i will quite.

Morrissey has matured and his music has naturally followed. I still think "You Are The Quarry" is his best effort to date, every single track is a masterpiece.

I suppose I shouldn't be shocked that somehow a Smiths YouTube video has turned into a WWII commentary -sigh. Morrissey is a brilliant, heartfelt and talented musician. Kudos if he has found a new, more positive direction for his music but gods, what an amazing influence, talent and "Charming Man".

@patcaboliQuestion: When did the US enter the war
Answer: December 7th 1941, the day that Pearl Harbour was attacked the Japs and Nazis declared war on the US (not the other way round). Prior to that the US was shipping 'Material' to help the Allies, this Lend Lease programme 41-45 $31.4 billion of help to Britain alone.
But that loan was repaid, every penny with interest! (took till 2006). America was dragged into the war by their enemies not their allies!

The America haters are pretty funny. They obviously don't know that Morrissey is a United States resident- I guess *he* doesn't hate Americans.
He lives in a gorgeous Spanish-Colonial in L.A. while haters back in the world's dreariest has-been empire repeat hackneyed insults at Americans (whom they've never met) but nary an unkind word to their Muslim invaders and future Sharia enslavers because that would be prejudiced- but not prejudiced against Americans?

@DJDanielPeterson According to "Morrissey and Marr: A Severed Alliance" by Johnny Rogan.. Marr really just wanted a break.. no one called anyone else... and NME ran with the story that Marr had left the Smiths, and Morrissey said that the Smiths would carry on.. and then they didn't when Morrissey realized that no guitarist could replace Marr.

@jckchapman1 that's certainly nice to know. is that a book or something?
theyellowsubmarine3 1 year ago
@theyellowsubmarine3 It is.. Johnny Rogan was one of the first "rock biographers" to take on the Smiths and try to document the history. Morrissey said something like "Personally I hope Johnny Rogan ends his days very soon in an M3 pile-up." but the book seems to give the best explanation of the breakup. And his credentials are hard to argue with..

@dmngzrlnd : First of all, he has never come out to affirm that he is 'gay.' Also his music is absolute class. He is one of a kind and is world renown for his uncanny wit and amazing ability of employing poet prose into his songs in the most distinguished manner. Greasers love listening to his music, because of his aesthetically classic appeal and voice, which harkens back to another time in popular music. A time when charisma and subtle innuendo drew crowds of people to acts like Sinatra & Anka

"Mope? What an idiot."
Yea I swear when it comes to acts like Morrissey or the Cure etc it seems like almost all the "music journalists" just check the work of earlier air headed music journalists to research the band so they just keep recycling the same vapid terminology like "Mope rock" & "Gloom merchant" and "the Pope of Mope" and all that garbage..

I didn't intend it that way, I'm sorry if u were offended, but 2 me it's not about race it' s about time & place. If u loved Moz during 80s of course ur view is as valid as mine or anyone else's, I just never knew he was big in the States/South America then. What I tried 2 say is, those who newly discover Morrissey & his back cataogue now, like Americans who've adopted him since he moved there, can't retrospectively form the same attachment to him as those who remember TheSmiths at their height
thinwhiteduke11 3 years ago
Americans can't ever REALLY get Moz, as teens today will never REALLY get him 'cos they weren't there! I know kids listen 2 TheSmiths & say they love them, but do they really?Not 2 be controversial, but the music of ur formative years is the only music u'll ever truly be emotionally connected to. When we were kids & TheSmiths were happenin was a magical time, can never be revisited, I love Moz now as I did then - completely! & it's not like any other love, this one is different because it's ours
thinwhiteduke11 3 years ago
You are completely, extremely, totally right!!!! I agree 1000% with you. You said the most deep truth about what happens with these kids of nowadays. The same happens with kids who are born nowadays and say they are punk because they like the Sex Pistols. It's very different from the people who was born on 60's or 70's and grew up seeing the Sex Pistols to emerge and to recede. That is, they've lived with the punk movement on its height, and today we live in a different cultural sphere.

overreacting methinks - if u really read what i said u'd realise i didn't say anything about Americans being stupid.

I felt that The Smiths were a big influence on my teen years and Moz's success in America was more recent. I wouldn't deign to suggest any individual, wherever they're from couldn't appreciate him - only that the most recent wave of popularity wasn't equal to his initial impact
thinwhiteduke11 2 years ago
and incidentally - i'm not a sir.....
thinwhiteduke11 2 years ago
forgive me. but in the way you conveyed your comments,ignorance felt as if it was implied. just because a person didn't experience things as they happened and in person doesn't mean no one can't get it. it's self-explanatory....it's in the music. plus,morrissey is no passé fad in which his style and the emotions of his music fades...they're classic. and btw,if you feel that way,what does that say about many great artists that are influenced by those before them?
scottjhnsn 2 years ago
Of course people can be influenced by those who went before them. I don't see anything in what I said that negates that. Nor do I think Moz is a fad - I've loved him for over 20 years and show no signs of wavering . Can't you acknowledge though that something at its height, at its very peak of perfection, can never be recaptured or experienced to the same degree by anyone 10 or 20 years after the fact as it was felt by those who were there.
thinwhiteduke11 2 years ago
I grew up with The Smiths...in the 80's, in the USA. Of course, they didn't get radio play, other than non-public college stations, but we loved The Smiths. there are very few memorable events from my teen-years that do not include a Smiths song or album ..among other great bands of course.
