        ------ About the song America Is Not The World performed by Morrissey

    Maybe some of you ought to read a few books on your own history before becoming all defensive. Looking for those facts? How about taking a look at some books written by Noam Chomsky, Tim Weiner's Legacy of Ashes, or why not Howard Zinn's A People's History of the United States, which all give you a different view of history from what you get in the mainstream media and bring into the open some of the potential answers to "Why do they all hate us so much?". USA has had some remarkable people, amazing history, and is a fascinating country. But you're far, far, far from being beyond criticism. It's not just about the Bush era, it's been a red thread running though US policies since the days of independence. And when what you do affects the entire world, everyone with a sense of justice and a concern about the future of the world should indeed react.

        ------ About the song I Have Forgiven Jesus performed by Morrissey

    You're all retards. This is soo about him being gay and being abstinent as he was. God didn't make him gay, not sure what did, but he felt very strongly for a long time that to act on his homosexuality was wrong. He's reconciled it within himself and has "forgiven jesus" for the pain he endured because of his homosexuality. DUH!


    Lyric Correction | Reviewer: David
        ------ About the song I Have Forgiven Jesus performed by Morrissey

    The lyric is not "paper round" which doesn't make any sense any ways but "paper route" as in delivering newspapers. He was a nice boy with a nice paper route. Does any one remember the Nintendo game Paper Boy?

        ------ About the song America Is Not The World performed by Morrissey

    Ha, im form Estonia and this was hilarious, we have 1,3 mil people in ur country thats not a couple if you can count not even can be rounded to a couple and we can bust youre countrys sorry ass anytime, and you say like cabbage was a bad thing ;d and the bratwurst is good and hamburgers but if you cant control youre body youre done, dont blame the food. and our language is rated the 2nd most beautiful languaege just behind italian, so you better learn how to pronounce öö cause women will dig it, well obviously you don't get them if you go around the net and bash about things that you havent got your facts right.


    "In Estonia, it brought you... some indigenous Baltic cuisine, probably involving cabbage. Well Estonia you know where, you can
    shove your cabbage. And don't you wonder, why everyone else in the world says, Hey you, you... you're from where again ? Oh right, what's that got, like, a couple of million people, about the size of Maine, bunch of pale skinny sourpussed herring fishermen double-vowels-with-umlauts-I-mean-HOW-are-you-supposed-to-pronounce-a-word-like-"öö"-anyway, and when you get down to it aren't you REALLY supposed to be Russian, I mean honestly ?"


    wow a new decent morrissey album | Reviewer: jimmy
        ------ About the album Years of Refusal performed by Morrissey

    well, being a smiths/ moz fan for a long time, but not a long time follower of moz since Vauxhall and I, I really enjoy this album. His voice is still amazing and i think this album beats the ones since VAI. some personal favorites on here are : Im throwing my arms around paris, all you need is me and black cloud! good album if you like his earlier stuff and grew tired of the 2000 releases!


    genius | Reviewer: DJ Stormy
        ------ About artist/band Morrissey

    Morrissey is an amazing and talented artist... With his old band The Smiths and solo his lyrics are so witty and true and his voice and music intoxicating... thank you for the inspiration and ear medicine. much love from Texas


    Morrissey is a pompus, self-righteous jackass | Reviewer: Morrissey is a tool
        ------ About the song America Is Not The World performed by Morrissey

    Morrissey is a douche. picking fights with elton john? huh?

    ever see his myspace? "Influences: get morrissey merchandise, sign up for the newsletter". What a tool!

    also, I guess the usa does have something to say since this song is now laughably outdated thanks Obama.

    He says the usa invented the hamburger. ok. They also invented the internet, the sewing machine, bifocals, the revolver , etc, etc, you know, things that have shaped human history. What have you done, Morrissey?


    Inspired a truly amazing swedish vampire movie | Reviewer: Niko Stash
        ------ About the song LET THE RIGHT ONE SLIP IN performed by Morrissey

    I just wanted to have a look at the song that inspired the title of a movie that to me is the best of the year 2008. I loved every second of it. It feels like a Walt Disney horror movie. So simple, so touching, so deep, so tender and so cruel. You gata see it if you didnt already. The english title is "Let the Right One In" and in french is is titled ''Morse''. Director is : Tomas Alfredson.


    Wow | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Mama Lay Softly on the Riverbed performed by Morrissey

    Even reading the lyrics to this truely remarkable song takes my breath away. Morrissey has a natural affinity for making people think and feel about what he sings about.
    This song is moving, and I haven't listend to it yet.
    I'm knocked for 6 at the lyrics of YOR and eagerly anticipate the time my CD comes (:
    Way to go, Mozz <3


    Correct lyrics | Reviewer: Vickie
        ------ About the song All You Need Is Me performed by Morrissey

    I find this site the most accurate. I have seen the line in the above song as ' a well fed house' and over and over changed to 'council house'. I knew them both to be wrong, I knew it was 'welfare house' and glad this site has printed them correctly, for all of us who not only love music, but have a compulsion to sing along !!!


    Americans | Reviewer: Mike
        ------ About the song America Is Not The World performed by Morrissey

    I've been reading all the "reviews" from disgruntled Americans and this is a classic example of an entire country missing the point. Instead of try to understand his lyrics, your overly patriotic side pops up and says "He's bad mouthing America.....bomb him"

    Pathetic!


    Hi | Reviewer: SR
        ------ About the song I Have Forgiven Jesus performed by Morrissey

    Hi all. Please stay with me on this, I'm going to try to explain what I think the song is about in a roundabout way.

    I think that being gay inside is not a choice...in that I mean that everyone has lustful feelings inside. Some feel it for either sex (male/female) or both. However, what we choose to do with those feelings is up to us. I believe that one can't help feel what he/she does, but that choosing to paticipate in acts of homosexuality is sinful. I also believe any lustful act is sinful without love or outside of marriage.

    I think Morrisey has found this out too. I think he's committed to God, and is in desperation for the way he feels inside...that he feels he cannot be himself by acting on those homosexual feelings without being deserted by Jesus. So he is saying he has forgiven Jesus, because he believes that Jesus deserted him for being homosexual, and also because he feels God has cursed him with these feelings.

    Let me tell you Morrisey, I can't condone those acts, but Jesus will never desert you. No one's perfect. I don't have any answers as to why people feel the way they do or as to why people are born transgendered or double-gendered or with no gender, but only that you are not alone, and you are NEVER without Jesus if you look for him.

    Peace and love to all of you,

    SR

        ------ About the song America Is Not The World performed by Morrissey

    I'm from the US and I love this! We are to fat, and need to learn examine (and laught at) ourselves a little bit more. But, when it comes down to it, we are not that different or worse than anyone else. Europe is still a joke though. I love you too Morrissey!


    well | Reviewer: to boomaga
        ------ About the song America Is Not The World performed by Morrissey

    I think that with this comment you have just demonstrated what Morrissey was thinking of with these lyrics.

    "In Estonia, it brought you... some indigenous Baltic cuisine, probably involving cabbage. Well Estonia you know where, you can
    shove your cabbage. And don't you wonder, why everyone else in the world says, Hey you, you... you're from where again ?

    an angel in Moz | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Angel, Angel, Down We Go Together performed by Morrissey

    Right no-one else has written a review of this song so I though I would. Firstly awesome lyrics and vocals. Full of pain but hopefull at the same time lyrical genius!! I Love the way Moz is able to share his own life with us in this way. It's so touching and makes me feel like i'm not the only person to feel so alone in this god forsaken world. *bows in respect*

    VIVA MOZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    sums it up | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Will Never Marry performed by Morrissey

    letting go gracefully....I had to make the painful decision several times over that because of my nature love would always be only a passing thing in life and it would be wrong for me to ever marry...This song really speaks to me


    oh, yes, Americans are fat and eat hamburgers, well observed there | Reviewer: boomaga
        ------ About the song America Is Not The World performed by Morrissey

    In Germany, it brought you the bratwurst. Well Germany you know where, you can
    shove your bratwurst. And don't you wonder, why in Estonia they say, Hey you, you big fat pig, you fat pig, you sweaty fat German bastard

    In England, it brought you beans on toast. Well England you know where, you can
    shove your beans on toast. And don't you wonder, why in Estonia they say, Hey you, you ASBO-excusing chav-coddlers, you closed-minded xenophobes, you miserable stuck-up cirrhotic alcoholic provincial twats

    In Estonia, it brought you... some indigenous Baltic cuisine, probably involving cabbage. Well Estonia you know where, you can
    shove your cabbage. And don't you wonder, why everyone else in the world says, Hey you, you... you're from where again ? Oh right, what's that got, like, a couple of million people, about the size of Maine, bunch of pale skinny sourpussed herring fishermen double-vowels-with-umlauts-I-mean-HOW-are-you-supposed-to-pronounce-a-word-like-"öö"-anyway, and when you get down to it aren't you REALLY supposed to be Russian, I mean honestly ?
