Re: Morrissey Statement - TTY
I thought the drummer was Eric lewis Gardner???
I thought the drummer was Eric lewis Gardner???
I'm not saying he's not earnt it, it's the fact that he's been a multi-millionaire ex-pat for the past 20 years with a cushty life and he's banging on about the poor people in England who are kept down by The Royals (Ordinary English folk) it all seems a bit hypocritical and condescending to me, given he probably lives a plush lifestyle.
how is it hypocritical and condescending? are you saying only a poor person can bang on about this?

I've always liked The Bravery. His drumming is good.
"Dick won't get it."
Thanks Moz, at least there's someone else out there besides me ....
I love this country and love Morrissey and whilst I don't agree with everything he says, this is one of the best diatribes he's put out there in a long time, but I fear he's just preaching to the converted. Wake up indeed!
the guy looks like a nice person in this video!!!!
I didn't know The Bravery...
I hope he will be good for Moz and his band!!
Wonder if he's only playing in american tour or becoming a member of the band...
but I read that The Bravery band is still in activity....
say what you will about any given member of the royal family, moz..at least none of them were in the bravery. oof.
Morrissey's right to subject his audience to such a diatribe is balanced by their right to respond in equal measure if they agree or disagree with his premises. I'm no 'fan'. That word is derivative of 'fanatic'. If I purchase a CD, read an interview/statement, or attend a show: I do not surrender my critical thinking skills, even though I am often taken on a rewarding emotional journey by his words and vocal melodies.
I'm not British and saw a rerun of this embarrassing Jubilee event, which is still quite relevant to what Morrissey is saying...The Queen also took a big part in the opening ceremony and her grandchildren in the events themselves. ..The Sex Pistols got it right, People are living "in England's dreamland", morons who want to continue believing in fairy tales, that they can marry a prince of princess and live happily ever after. Britain is on the verge on bankruptcy and the media is pumping out opium for the people.
How you manage to spell words incorrectly in spite of the spell checker is beyond me.
You're not British. Morrissey isn't currently British in any meaningful sense of the word. So the relevance of either of you to a discussion of British current affairs is questionable. Unless, of course, you are a foreign national living and working in this country, in which case your views might be important and interesting. Only they're not....
The Queen metaphorically jumped out of a helicopter at the opening ceremony, rendering Morrissey's 'palace troll' tropes redundant in one post-modern mediation of Royal protocol. Are you suggesting that the Queen's relatives should be 'banned' from competing in competitive sports? Why? Do you live in some post-royal apocalyptic failed state?
The nostalgia of 50 year olds for the faux-rebelllions of 'punk rock' represent nothing more than their 'sunk investment' in the memes and themes of their long-distant youth. This applies especially to Morrissey with this ridiculous statement and to John Lydon's mostly incoherant babbling recently on BBC Newsnight.
The quote you're looking for is "There is no future in England's dreaming", not "in England's dreamland". Please learn how to use Google or another search engine before you "quote" again. Your description of British citizens as 'morons' is noted. However, I would advise you against voicing such an opinion on any visit here unless you have extensive dental insurance covering your travels. Your attempt to troll me by reference to typographic errors fails miserably, given that you cannot compose a sentence:'marry a prince of princess' indeed. If you are a foreign student of the English language, please take your silly comment and show it to your tutor so they may ameliorate your deficiencies.
The entire world economy is on the verge of bankruptcy. I've no idea or interest in your non-British origin but it's extremely unlikely your compatriots will escape the coming cataclysm.
I do not use a spellchecker as I largely dictate these responses to my Secretary, Sharon McCormick. Thank you for pointing out she has not performed to the required standard. I shall certainly sanction her severely tonight! Your written communication skills may not be very good, but perhaps you have some exciting oral skills. I'd be happy for you to try out your oral on me.
regards
Sharon McCormick-on behalf of 'BrummieBoy'

I thought you were taking a break from this place after admitting to lying about another user's personal information?
This site has an automatic spell checker, which cannot pick up my typo of "prince of/or princess". Your mistakes are spelling mistakes, which you continue to make in your response.
It's "England Dreamland" if you listen to the song. "they made you a moron" is from the lyrics of the song, which you obviously don't know as well. Being in their 50s now, doesn't mean they weren't spot on when they wrote the song and sang it in their 20s. You are obviously a troll that has nothing to do, but bother unsuspecting people on this site and you should be banned from it.
Who is finding these musicians for Morrissey? The Bravery? Really? Killers lite with a nice line in rehashed 80's melodies. They're more Duran Duran that say Joy Division. Hideous. Did anyone buy their records after the overhyped debt? The playing is uninspired which maybe makes it perfect for Moz's band of college garage band hipsters.
