• Morrissey to play BBC 6 Music Live 2017 (Monday 2nd Oct. 2017, Maida Vale, London) - Sep. 4, 2017

 

[Johnny Barleycorn]

Exactly. You got it.

You’re a pillock, then.

(To the tune of “She’ll Be Coming Round The Mountain When She Comes.”)

 

[BrummieBoy]

The new songs have a real “kids a looker” feel to them

At least that got a reaction. Now? Nobody is surprised today is a non-event. Nobody is surprised at Morrissey's trolling....nobody is surprised the new songs sound like out-takes from WPINOYB.

 

[Surface]

So why play World Piece tracks when he could have fit more new songs in, very odd?

 

[Anonymous]

with a setlist like this one, all the venues he's booked, will be sold out easily. Excellent promotion, the promoters are happy

 

[Orson Swells]

So why play World Piece tracks when he could have fit more new songs in, very odd?

Two more were played after the broadcast ended. I think the question is why play World Peace... and Bullfighter when he could have played a couple of the "classics". It's almost as if he did it deliberately, I'd say.

 

[EllisFirestone]

Ssshhh. You aren’t allowed to mention that. Labour’s hatred of Jews was disproved by the Noble Baroness Chucklebutty.

hahahahaha..'baroness chucklebutty', you win the internet!

 

[butley]

i can tell you why this is the case

do you want me to

i am not sure you're ready for this though

I am ready I am ready. I'm not saying I support UKIP but all they seem to have a problem with is immigration and believe that mass immigration is detrimental to the residents of a country.

 

[BrummieBoy]

So why play World Piece tracks when he could have fit more new songs in, very odd?

In Morrissey's mind, WPINOYB is a masterpiece which was thwarted by Harvest. Until recently he was planning to re-release it before his next album. Now he probably intends to re-launch it once LIHS beomes a stunning success....ahem!

 

[Sidnettle]

Ahh, you want a fairer society where if someone doesn't agree with the prevailing view its 'f*** you'? Fits in well with anti-semitic and misogynist rubbish that seems prevalent in Labour at the moment.

It's f*** you if you don't want a fairer society - for obvious reasons.

 

[Sidnettle]

I am ready I am ready. I'm not saying I support UKIP but all they seem to have a problem with is immigration and believe that mass immigration is detrimental to the residents of a country.

How many of its members/supporters only have a problem with immigration because it puts a squeeze on resources? 2 perhaps?

 

[Sidnettle]

In Morrissey's mind, WPINOYB is a masterpiece which was thwarted by Harvest. Until recently he was planning to re-release it before his next album. Now he probably intends to re-launch it once LIHS beomes a stunning success....ahem!

The question is why play two of the worst tracks from it?

 

[Sidnettle]

At least that got a reaction. Now? Nobody is surprised today is a non-event. Nobody is surprised at Morrissey's trolling....nobody is surprised the new songs sound like out-takes from WPINOYB.

I think they are outtakes from Years of Refusal tbh

 

[Anonymous]

It's f*** you if you don't want a fairer society - for obvious reasons.

why dont you move to iran? its all muslim aka fair.LOL

 

[Surface]

In Morrissey's mind, WPINOYB is a masterpiece which was thwarted by Harvest. Until recently he was planning to re-release it before his next album. Now he probably intends to re-launch it once LIHS beomes a stunning success....ahem!

Jesus, i only liked one track off that album at least two i heard today were better than anything off WPINOYB. Wonder why he feels he has to be such an awkward f***er. New Order really thought about their set when they played 6 music live, blending new tracks from Music Complete with big hitters from their back catalogue. It helped in the promotion of their new album, which became their biggest seller for years. No shite tracks from poor albums, no covers, no stupid comments about UKIP, just a great show which landed very well.

A huge opportunity missed by Morrissey today but it will be everyone else's fault if the album fails.

 

[MILKISMURDER]

That's a pretty..err..liberal interpretation of her career. She's not feminist, she's a hard-right anti-Islam racist

What is right wing and/or racist about opposing an illiberal and oppressive ideology?

 

[butley]

How many of its members/supporters only have a problem with immigration because it puts a squeeze on resources? 2 perhaps?

I think that immigration is being deliberately used to divide and rule. There are a lot of stupid racist people and they can get f***ed but a lot of people are concerned about resources being squeezed clearly. That's why most people support UKIP and no I could never put my cross next that party but am just saying.

 

[MILKISMURDER]

I missed the UKIP comment.. I heard him say about it being edited out, but what did he say?

He was referring to the song open your legs being edited out.

 

[BrummieBoy]

I think they are outtakes from Years of Refusal tbh

Wherever these new songs came from, they do not represent anything new or innovative. They are just more of the same. There's no new focus/inspiration to the lyrics or the music. You can already guess how the live shows will plod along. There's very little reaction here on this site. Nobody's frantically trying to assert that the new songs represent anything other than business as usual. It's a total non-event and that, in itself, speaks volumes.....

 

[BrummieBoy]

He was referring to the song open your legs being edited out.

That's what he's desperately hoping for. Some reaction. Any reaction. But the lyrics are just more of the same. Nothing new. 'explosive kegs' redux.

 

[Sidnettle]

What is right wing and/or racist about opposing an illiberal and oppressive ideology?

If only it were all for the right reasons. If only...
