Morrissey'nin geçen haftaki doğumgünü vesilesiyle bilimum internet medyasında kendisi hakkında yazıldı çizildi.
Q Magazine'in web sitesinde de rahmetli Mr. Manchester'ın 1984'te (bazılarınız portakalda vitaminken) The Smiths'le röportaj yaptığı bir video vardı. Q'nun verdiği link ne hikmetse açılmıyordu, dilerseniz bizimkinden medet umun. Bugüne kadar izlememiş olan varsa, saldırsın.
Morrissey’in sadece şarkı sözleri değil ta 80’lerden beri bilimum basına verdiği demeçler de hastası olunacak, ‘bunalımlı anlarımızın dostu’ diye tanımlayabileceğimiz cinsten.
NME’nin sitesinde Morrissey’in 50 adet şahane lafı ‘Morrissey’s 50 most memorable quotes’ başlığıyla bir araya getirilmiş. Bayağı özlü söz niteliğinde olanlar var aralarında. Biz leziz bazılarını aşağı kopyalayıverdik. Siz Morrissey’nin 50 beyanına da tıklayın.Bezdiğiniz dakikalarda başvurmanız tavsiye edilir.
İşte seçme Morrissey vecizeleri:
On existence: “When I'm lying in my bed I think about life and I think about death and neither one particularly appeals to me.”
On being miserable: “What's the first thing I do when I wake up in the morning? Wish I hadn't.”
On dying: "I have an unswayable obsession with death. If there was a magical pill that one could take that would retire you from the world, I would take it." (NME, 1988).
On indolence: “Doing nothing gives me great pleasure. And believe me, I succeed wonderfully in it.” (Rock Sound, 1993)
On mental health: “I have seen one or two psychiatrists. They just sit and nod and doodle.”
On life goals: "Sometimes I wish I was just a simple drunkard." (Select, 1991).
On growing old: “Age shouldn’t affect you. You’re either marvellous or you’re boring, regardless of your age.”
On romance: “I do think it's possible to go through life and never fall in love, or find someone who loves you.”
On a life in music: “I lost myself to music at a very early age, and I remained there.” (Select, July 1991).
On not getting any: “That was the problem with the 'celibate' word because they don't consider for a moment that you'd rather not be, but you just are. I was never a sexual person.”
On addiction: “Music is like a drug, but there are no rehabilitation centres.” (Select, July 1991).
On regret: “Life would be so colourful if only I had a drink problem. ” (Vox November, 1990).
On honesty: “I lie a lot - it's really useful.” (Star Hits, 1987).
On the future: “I'm just happy being dumpy. Dumpy, fat and middle-aged.” (NME, 1989).
On blandness: “Don't talk to me about people who are 'nice' cause I have spent my whole life in ruins because of people who are 'nice'.”
On Oasis: “They are very tame to me. God bless Noel, I'm sure he'll always have a spot on 'Bob's Full House', but I search for something with more bite and rage.”
On dance music: “It's the refuge for the mentally deficient. It's made by dull people for dull people.” (Details, 1992).
On psychoanalysis: “[Sigmund Freud] just made people feel so neurotic about their lives. I mean, if you dreamt about a lampshade, it meant you wanted to be whipped by the local vicar or something.”
On modernity: “Whenever I go past Mcdonalds I get very, very angry.” (NME, 1989)
Morrissey grubuyla birlikte soyunup fotoğraf çektirdi ya şu ara pek bir tartışılıyor. Çekim yeni single "I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris" için yapılmış. Benim anladığım tek şey; plak geri dönmüş hakikaten...
