    His eccentricity helps make me love my own. There’s something very real about him and yet he’s got this dreamy old school glamour - and the combination is entrancing

    I had an older friend many yrs ago who Morrissery reminds me of, his looks, his demeanor, his wit, him as a friend. As Nancy walked into his home it took me back to visits with my friend. As for Morrissey he is a genius, no doubt about it. 🇮🇪 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

    The great irony of Morrissey is that he is an iconoclast who loves to be worshipped. On the whole, however, a rather decent fellow.

    You know, I originally thought Morrissey was off base with the vegetarian thing, but once you listen to him, he can make alot of sense. Because the pieces of his puzzle fall into place and you can see the connections and the overall impact of his message.

    That's gotta drive him crazy though, he's as cordial as it gets but some fans just let their emotions run wild and they absolutely mug poor Morrissey.
    He is really one of a kind,
    Him and Marrs was a great team musically.
    @12:20- I couldn't help but hear that song,
    That's sounds like the song
    Faron Young by Prefab Sprouts,
    Did The Smiths originally write that or what?
    I can also hear how the group
    Danny Wilson got inspiration from this song on their
    song {Girl I used to know} well least I think so.

    I think heterosexual men love him, not sexually, but because nobody else speaks for mens insecurity, loneliness, and lack of confidence. Women are sympathised with constantly but men are just left to cope. Morrisey gives them a voice.

    Unfortunately many repress their unicity for insecurity. Should be refreshing having someone so eccentricly self centered. But some will label those people narcisistic or egotistic . This hapoens at anveryvesrly age by your so called friends or girls who likes you and you dont like. They will say you r an egoist. When you r 15. You dont know how to react to this form of hate and risk to respress yourself. You gotta becrealy strong to remain true to yourself always.

    You should always make sure that everything that is on the seats in your car is properly held in place, for example a Dog should be properly harnessed in. If you break fast or you crash your car what ever is in the seat could fly of the seats and hit someone in the car kill them or injure or hurt them or fly out of the car and hit someone around the car and kill them or seriously hurt or injure them. You could also kill or hurt or injure the thing that is in your passenger seat if it is something like a dog or a cat.

      I really wish people would accept the truth. Johnny Marr and Morrissey we're lovers. They never admitted it, but.johnny wanted out of the relationship, but Morrissey didn't. He loved Johnny, now I can't say how Johnny felt. A lot of people then got into gay relationships but after a while changed their minds and wanted to declare nothing ever happened. I hate those types.

Several of those I loved don't want it ever known they were with me.

      Morrissey is an extremely eccentric person, and probably why he and Johnny's relationship couldn't work. Eccentric people are very hard to get on with. But Morrissey is highly intelligent why his career excelled.

I dont like the way he appears to presume to speak on behalf of the underdogs of Britain considering he's been rich and famous for nearly forty years now and couldn't possibly understand how it really feels to be a modern day working class British person.
