Concert Notes

Morrissey opened the show with lines from the song "Downtown".
Morrissey's Psalm 130:1-8 adaptation during HSIN? was the start of a large set of lyric changes:
Out from the depths I have cried to thee, O Lord.
Lord, hear my voice!
Let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications!

I am the scum
I am the scum
I am the scum & heir...

Then a "Hail Mary" excerpt part way through...
More scum...

Then an altered Lady Is A Tramp lyric:

"She hates California, she said it's cold and it's damp.
That's why, that's why the lady is a tramp, tramp, tramp."

Then an Irving Berlin variation:

Why don't you go where fashion fits...
Puttin' on the Ritz.
Puttin' on the Ritz.
Yeah, just go where fashion fits...
Puttin' on the Ritz.
Puttin' on the Ritz.

Then:

I am an animal!
Oh, shut your mouth,
Just shut your mouth,
And keep your mouth shut.
Because I am human and I need to be loved.
So, you can shut your mouth.

I am an animal.
I am so happy to be an animal.
I am an animal.
I am an animal.
So happy,
So happy.


Prior to the encore of Sweet And Tender Hooligan, Morrissey sang a line from Bowie's Space Oddity:
"Though I'm past one hundred thousand miles, I'm feeling very still."
