"Softly As I Leave You": New Single for 2020 (Thelma Houston duet), top 10 nights - M. Central

New Single for 2020 "Bobby, Don't You Think They Know?"
--
SOFTLY, AS I LEAVE YOU. - Morrissey Central
November 5, 2019

My deferential thanks to all brave souls, loving souls, patriots and pioneers who filled the arenas and halls of our recent North American/Canadian tour.
The tour was a great success, and here are my top ten chosen nights:

1.LOS ANGELES The Hollywood Bowl (Oct 26)
2.QUEENS, NEW YORK Forest Hills Stadium (Sept 27)
3.VANCOUVER BC Orpheum / first night (Oct 14)
4.VANCOUVER BC Orpheum / second night (Oct 15)
5.CALGARY AB Jubilee Auditorium (Oct 11)
6.WINNIPEG MB Centennial (Oct 21)
7.SALT LAKE Utah Saltair (Sept 28)
8.CAMDEN NJ BB&T Pavillion (Sept 11)
9.SAN DIEGO CA Pechanga Arena (Oct 6)
10.KETTERING OH Fraze Pavillion (Sept 11)

In this trendy climate of 'M-deniers', I am so relieved that everything went so well - not only well, in fact, but triumphantly so … the Hollywood Bowl being the best night of my touring life.
The journalistic debacle of the LA Times piece relied heavily on the sectors of London Fake Media, who themselves, rely so exclusively on anonymous sources. I am afraid Idiot Culture - with all its worst inclinations - gets the most baying and ax grinding coverage. It is pseudo-news gone insane, and it is its own sadness. Their obsessive perpetuation of spectacularly irresponsible reporting ("we can't find a story, so let's make one up") is a terrible reflection on those willing to report nothing whatsoever as catastrophic news. I rely on your intelligence not to consume shitty reports of what does not exist. You know exactly to whom I refer. These are the days of decision … to quote the great Phil Ochs.

2020 ? Hopefully less Alarmism from those who say things that have been given them to say. Otherwise, I think BMG will release 'Bobby, Don't You Think They Know?' as a single - my fantastic duet with Thelma Houston. As always, we pray for airplay.

I support you now - just as I supported you in the days before I even knew you.

He sounds tired, resigned and flat.
 
Been going on way too long. I have been too close to others with depression for too long. It’s normal to suffer from depression and still be a nice person. I just think finding more excuses for him only makes the others he rails against suffer further. But, you’re clearly a nice person and I respect that you’re trying to find some positivity. Please keep doing that xx

That's the first sensible post I've ever seen from you Trill. Well done. I feel tears welling up.
 
Would he like to specify exactly what he thinks was made up? Of course he won't. That's his style. He just wants to moan, moan, moan. And that's because it's out of his control. He pays people to tell him he's right all the time in his cloistered, insular world. And he just doesn't know how to handle it when outsiders, reporting the actual things he's said and done, get on his wick - he can't control it.

I can see why he doesn't like people reporting what he himself says, but tough shit. You either stand by what you say or you don't. You can't then complain when exactly what you said gets reported.

He is an isolated, money-grabbing, bigoted, narcissist control-freak.

His use of money to get what he want will be, and is being his downfall.

He thinks, like Trump, he can say and do whatever he likes with impunity.

Well - no.

And you're an obsessed middle-aged f***wit that doesn't have a life.

Peter, would YOU like to specify exactly what you’re doing here?

You are the most boringly predictable individual.

Why don’t you just go away forever?
 
You're always first in line, your obession is a world wide phenomenon by now. Maybe like me you should abandon something that changed cause of politics which is why I stopped following Man United.
I am seriously interested in why you keep hanging here and dedicating yourself to following a man you cannot in any way agree with.
Could you enlighten us in a serious way?

He's mentally ill. Still pining over his first love.

You are correct in that.
He devoted so much of his life to him and lost his daughter as result of it.
This is his way of trying to atone for it.
He used to be the number one fan - Mastermind - ICA etc etc but with the advent of the internet he isn't.
He was at the first Moz army meet in 2013 but would only speak to the chosen few , blowing smoke up the arse of Jonny Bridgwood and Andrew Paresi (neither of whom have indicated any racism on part of Moz funnily enough)
 
''As always, we pray for airplay.''

Newsflash, Steven - NO ONE LISTENS TO THE RADIO ANYMORE!

Thanks Trill. That's very kind.

I suppose sometimes there's just so much pain in a Morrissey song, that I'd like him not to be alone with a cat trapped in a cycle of antagonism & shame. Very few artists can make me cry, but he can.

Silly, I know. x

He will tell you this is where he is staying and there’s nothing you can do about it.
He’s chasing Nazis don’t you know. The fact is, the man wouldn’t say boo to a goose in public.
I still love the seal antics at the radio 2 show.
 
PS - thanks interpol
Exactly. A kind word to them would be nice. He did well getting Interpol as an opening act.
I don't think listing the top 10 concerts is fair or worthwhile or constructive. It's a pity his 'statement' started out positive and then degenerated into the usual rant. Not only is the glass half empty but it is cracked with jagged shards.
 
Well said moz

He thanked them at every show
 
WHAT? Jesus f***, this is lame.

“Brave souls”? “Patriots”?

What is this? The American Civil War?

Kindly f***-right-off with your try-hard nonsense, GOOF.

Somebody press the button again. This clown is a double-flusher.
 
Maybe it's love turned to hate? My 3 most fanatical ex-Morrissey-fan friends liked every hate tweet he got about The Guardian t-shirt, including ones that wanted him dead. They were very motivated about it.

Skinny, by his own admission, was "heartbroken" by Moz some years ago.

'Psychology today' covers the syndrome well.

Just shows what a weak, cowardly & shameful example of the male species he actually is...hence the hiding behind keyboards, dropping bombs, then running away.

Waste of space who refuses medical help.
 
[blah blah blah]....That's his style. He just wants to moan, moan, moan.

[blah blah blah]....You either stand by what you say or you don't. You can't then complain when exactly what you said gets reported.

He’s really becoming a bore isn’t he? All he proves is that his downfall has really got to him. Trying to put on a brave face whilst telling his fans how much he loves them. Please! You’re not talking to 13 year old girls Morrissey.

Embarrassing.
