Morrissey bliver 50 i dag. Fejrer fødselsdagen med en koncert i Manchester Apollo, bare endnu et stop på hans neverending tour. Et stort tillykke herfra og tak for alle sangene – det har været fantastisk!
There’s gonna be some trouble
a whole house will need re-building
and everyone I love in the house
will recline on an analyst’s couch quite
soon
your Father cracks a joke
and in the usual way
empties the room
tell all of my friends
(I don’t have too many
just some rain-coated lovers’ puny brothers)
Dallow, Spicer, Pinkie, Cubitt
rush to danger
wind up nowhere
Patric Doonan – raised to wait
I’m tired again – I tried again, and
now my heart is full
now my heart is full
and I just can’t explain
so I won’t even try to
Dallow, Spicer, Pinkie, Cubitt
every jammy Stressford poet
loafing oafs in all-night chemists
loafing oafs in all-night chemists
underact – express depression
ah, but Bunnie I loved you
I was tired again
I tried again, and
now my heart is full
now my heart is full
and I just can’t explain
so I won’t even try to
did you pass by
did you pass by
did you pass by
did you pass by
did you pass by
now my heart is full
now my heart is full
and I just can’t explain, so
so
so
so
so
so
so

Morrissey.
50 år i dag. Du er simpelthen en unik kunstner.
Det er helt umuligt at rangere dine plader. Så jeg vil blot tage hatten af for dig og kippe med flaget.
Glæder mig helt utroligt til de to koncerter i juni.
There Is A Light That Never Goes Out….
Viva Morrissey
Til lykke – selvom din stjerne er falmet de senere år, så ruster gammel kærlighed aldrig …
A sad fact widely known
The most impassionate song
To a lonely soul
Is so easily outgrown
But dont forget the songs
That made you smile
And the songs that made you cry
When you lay in awe
On the bedroom floor
And said : oh, oh, smother me mother…
No …
Rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ring
La …
The passing of time
And all of its crimes
Is making me sad again
The passing of time
And all of its sickening crimes
Is making me sad again
But dont forget the songs
That made you cry
And the songs that saved your life
Yes, youre older now
And youre a clever swine
But they were the only ones who ever stood by you
The passing of time leaves empty lives
Waiting to be filled (the passing …)
The passing of time
Leaves empty lives
Waiting to be filled
Im here with the cause
Im holding the torch
In the corner of your room
Can you hear me ?
And when youre dancing and laughing
And finally living
Hear my voice in your head
And think of me kindly
No …
Rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ring
La …
No …
Rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ring
Do you
Love me like you used to ?
Oh …
Rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ring
La …
Youre clever
Everybodys clever nowadays
Youre clever
Everybodys clever nowadays
You are sleeping
You do not want to believe
You are sleeping
You do not want to believe
You are sleeping
You do not want to believe
You are sleeping
