I love this song so much and play it regularly. "My only mistake is I'm hoping". So many people can relate to this simple line. Hope is great but it can prevent people to move on in their life in desperate situations.

Why not? The one who's come to let it sign didn't steal anything from the band, in fact he or she must be a massive fan and probably has bought all official releases.

That's maybe correct for "The Queen is Dead" but think of later songs like "Half a Person" or "I won't share you".

Sparks are decades in the music business. They know exactly that they won't sell a single record more because they criticize another artist so I doubt that this was their intention. They just say what they think about Morrissey's statements because they were asked about it.

Do you really believe that one single person on this planet buys their record just because they criticize Morrissey?

You're right, it seems to be another choir (01:37):

This is the audio source:

#13 in the Official German Top 100 album charts: http://www.mtv.de/charts/70tgrf/album-top-100

"fastest rising single in Morrissey's career"? Okay, he's finally given up competing with other artists (charts) and now begins to compete only with himself.

"as obvious as snow, as if we didn't know."

So "The Queen is Dead" was a pretty tasteless album title because the other Windsors were still alive? And what about the line "London is dead" in "Glamorous Glue"? An entire city with eight Million people dead! What was going on in Morrissey's ugly mind?

Morrissey in the "capital of rape"? Beware!:smirk:

When the audio is out, there will be a lot of "experts" in this forum, believe me. :smirk:

Spex is a left-wing magazine but isn't a good example for the German media in general or would you say "Junge Freiheit" is left wing?

Please don't mix up Spex (a left wing music magazine) with Germany in general. Like many other European countries Germany is becoming increasingly divided between left wing and right wing. The old mainstream parties like CDU and SPD were all losing voters in 2017's election.
