he’s so well spoken and kind, it’s such a shame how much people misunderstand and hate this man. he inspires me everyday and i probably wouldn’t be here without his music.
Most people are very stupid so it's best not to dwell on Trump or Brexit supporters
Amen
We hate him because he’s a far right tosser. He’s a joke. Ask Johnny Marr
That's going to inevitably happen when you're Morrissey and much of your audience is on the left but you also support Brexit and UKIP.
Eat it Steven.
@taranullius9221 So tolerant.
Nice to see him given some respect instead of being unfairly smeared.
This interviewer was perfect for Morrissey, he seemed very comfortable with her
Rosanna Scotto!!!
He likes a bit of glamour
Exception : she was too loud and a bit pushy compared to his soft way of speaking :)
@sadiesleepwalker646 She didn't push anything. She was an engaging interviewer and there's no need for two people to mirror each other's tone. You can literally just be yourself.
@@sadiesleepwalker646I disagree, she knew how to handle him, he’s polite but difficult
Even when Morrissey talks, he sounds like he is singing. Such an iconic voice.
This is the most Morrissey interview I've ever seen. He's great.
She knew how to love him into perfection
@@sheepsickshe knew nothing
Hahahahaha - that's a tad harsh. She knew how to be civil at least :D@@buffalobillsbasket122
You need to watch .. Larry King...that was a good interview....😊
He rarely does interviews, so this is a gem!!
She actually knew how to speak to this complex and complicated man. I was very shocked. This is the local station to me and i have been a Morrissey fan for 35 years. This has been one of the best interviews.
I know, right? She seems like this cute Jewish grandma and like...how did she dial it in so hard to tease out the best in this complicated, storied, iconic and stubborn British artist? She couldn't possibly have been a fan back in the day. Yet she was able to create such a safe, curious, well-researched, and grounded. space for this exchange to casually and innocently unfold. I really freaking love it.
As a 63 yr old male i can say i really respect this Man's music longevity and spirit. His opinions are his own and he owns them. Live long and prosper Morrissey.
He doesn't give a shit , I respect that
Our greatest lyricist, a national treasure.
he is the greatest lyricist of all time indeed!
Huh? When it comes to artistic endeavours at this level, there is no "greatest". It's completely subjective. It's like saying blue is the best colour.
@@OMGWTFLOLSMH blue? it's obviously orange. blue 😂
40 years of being unusual, you can never quite predict what he is going to say!
He appears more open and calm here, the lady is doing a great job
This would never happen with a U.K. journalist, really good to watch. Morrissey was in a good mood ha
He still looks handsome and sounds great.
I met him in a bookstore in LA and we talked for 10 minutes straight just the two of us and it was so sweet kind and hilarious. I love him❤
Book Soup?
no Skylight Books in Los Feliz!! @@jamesgibson3242
Lucky you. He's wonderful.❤🎉❤
He is hilarious. I love a sardonic wit.
I had a similar experience in London with Jimmy Page ❤
These 2 make an unexpectedly wholesome pair, I expected a car crash of Morrissey having the walls up and batting off asinine celeb gossip questions. I think he enjoyed that chat
Same
She was great!
Rosanna is the pits.
@@cinemar
She's a huge phony and doesn't know any of his music.
it's probably due to encroaching *senility*
Fell in love with The Smiths at 12 and here we are at 51 still intrigued by Morrissey ❤❤❤
Konbanwa Gigi, a classmate in school recommended The Smiths to me as i was 14 or 15.
And yes,with 51 nothing has changed.
The Smiths are totaly underrated.
Same time,same age. My friends who are still with still love The Smiths.
yeah he is intriguing
May he live as long as humanly possible, this pearl of a man.
"unless I'm assassinated." Bless his heart. He is so quirky.
I wonder if that was a humorous reference to John Lennon.
Well he wouldn't be the first English singer/songwriter to be assassinated in that City 🙄
@@sagatuppercut2960 More like a 'humorous' reference to the disgusting US government and its many assassinations of prominent 'dangerous' public figures.
as a native NYer, watching rosanna scotto interview moz is delightfully surreal
Mozzer, the only rock star from the 1980's who has never sold out or followed fashion. A legend.
Nonsense,there's plenty more,but I'm not wasting my time on you to name them all 😂
@@mjh5437rather aggressive for such a benign OP
Would you say that David Bowie sold out? Or *followed* fashion? Siouxie Sioux?
You are right to say that Morrisey has never sold or nor followed, but to credit him exclusivity in integrity is perhaps a bit hyperbolic.
The only actual charming man left in this wretched world
Miley Cyrus exists ~ exactly!
It is so nice to actually have mainstream media giving Morrissey a chance to speak and having a good interview with him, without trying to make him look bad.
Also, I have never liked Miley Cyrus' music, but it is a shame how everything turned out.
Morrissey when speaking about her sounds like the caring grandfather his grandkids won't visit.
I think he made some Morrissey comments that are not WOKE whatever the f that means. I’m a dem but not crazy. Anyway, I thought Miley was supposed to be ferocious? Coward in the end, blame the manager.
Tiger Dreams is an excellent song by Miley that I recommend highly
Stop. Just STOP. That's utter bullllllsht
Nobody tries to make him look bad.
He says fckd up, sometimes racist stuff. Period. You can like a person and their work without absolute azz kissing and pretending to agree with everything they do, say.
Ask him about his far right hideous political views. And how he hates foreigners despite not even living in the UK. That’s why most Smiths’ fans hate him. Maybe he can join the Klu Klux Klan whilst he’s there.
Can't believe Morrissey thinks having Miley Cyrus (the shameless, twerking, fevered-ego idiot!) singing in one of his songs is all fine and dandy!
Morrissey is a breath of fresh, soft, and honest air in American television.
Here in UK we see him as a prick
@@PedroMiguel-if3ll He can be a bit of a prick for sure, but my point is you don't see a lot of truth and honesty in American TV. Everything is so loud and dynamic and forced, you know.
@@PedroMiguel-if3ll100000%
@@PedroMiguel-if3llNot all of us. he is a fucking legend.
Pricks do.
Loved it when he said, "I'm a pathetically humble person". That's the Smiths' spirit he's still holding, genuinely always true to you.
It's also absolutely opposite to his real self, of course
No, he's not. The real himself he is and has always been. Just love the man. @@raynehell1217
He’s a narcissist lol
anyone who calls themself pathetically humble is definitely not humble lol
Nothing better in the 80's than having The Smiths latest album in your hands,on the bottom deck of a double decker bus at the back perusing the lyrics and being enthralled with the fabulous lyrics and realising that they were songs. Being so excited to get it on the turntable!! Best frontman/lyricist ever!!
Loved him since I was 14, now 35. Viva Morrissey.
Such a good interviewer. She really puts him at ease and gets the best out of him.
She did a good job, it's a shame she missed the sarcasm.
So grateful to have fallen in love with Morrissey (and also The Cure) when I was 12 in 1989. Still think they are the best and the coolest.
I got "Disintegration" around the same age. I didn't have my "Smith's epiphany" till 96' though. Songs save and make lives.
wouldve been great shocking and fantastical if Morrissey had said he wanted to collab with Mr Smith - squash that tension and create some future classics the Smiths and the Cure were at the top of the pile of my 80s/early 90s vinyl
Props to the interviewer: she did an excellent job!
I agree. I thought it was going to be a train wreck, especially since she has a "cheerleaderly" personality. But I've watched it a few times now because I love him. I got the feeling that the interviewer didn't know much about him or his work and did some quick research an hour before the interview
I agree. She's probably not the type of personality Morrissey would vibe with she's so disarming, guileless and enthusiastic that it totally worked for her.
Because she let morrissey be morrissey. It is that easy.😌
Really? Ok
I thought she was gonna fuck it up , but she did well
Brilliant interview. Nice to see a genuine conversation and not a hit piece. Now, Capitol needs to release the hostage!!!!
I find the people who love and care for animals are always the nicest human beings.
👍
Even in the post punk era of the early 80’s The Smiths made us stand up and take notice. Morrissey is a genius. 👌💕
YEAH, RIGHT......
The Smiths *were* 'proto-junk'
@@harrycrazy46 True i was Punk in the 80's listening to D.O.A., Minor Threat & Dead Kennedys. My girlfriend in high school introduced me to The Smiths & i've been a fan ever since.
@@SaintMartins you look like Jude law.😳
A masterclass by Rosanna Scotto in how to chat with someone! She's warm, enthusiastic, encouraging and positive, and genuinely interested in what Moz has to say plus she clearly did her homework. Next time you're at say a dinner party where you have to chat to people deploy her techniques.
Morrissey's always brilliant to listen to. Singing or speaking.
Good interview to be fair to this lady as a Brit i notice when Moz hates the questions and she does a great job here, thanks for a rare interview and hope the album is out soon
To me, he is a work of art.
no he is just a piece of work and has been for the last 60 years i'm sure
Thank you for both the enlightening comment and your own special contribution to the world.
How I enjoyed this video with my morning coffee in a peaceful garden with all the birds tweeting. Why can’t every day be like this?
Everyday is Like Sunday
The absolute best ... an icon. Recently saw him in DC, and it was a PHENOMENAL SHOW!
was there too
Yes! It was fantastic!
Moz just being himself , a little melodramatic and lots of tongue in cheek. The part on his song writing process is unheard of to my knowledge. Far away from those click- bait titles, Morrissey is always entertaining or profound or both at the same time. You are the greatest!!
This is a true fun fact: I was born on the same day as Morrissey! May 22, 1959!
Been a fan since I was in high school in Springfield MO in 1987. I can't even begin to explain this man's impact on my life. I have dragged my kids to his concerts. Flown then across the world to see him, Including the Broadway stint in 2019. I have even met and hung out with Johnny Marr (who despises Morrissey and considers Morrissey's mom even more of a "fascist" than the man himself). And in all of my research, my travels and my journeys -- including all the adorable '80s BBC interviews we are lucky enough to get to access online now -- this was by far the most disarmingly casual, humble and sweet interview I've found. It sure helps to be neutral when interviewing such a polarizing figure. This little lady did not have a dog in the race. And that made it a perfect moment.
Beautifully upbeat and positive interview! Love the love for Morrissey!
That was a very sweet and warm interview. Rosanna did a fine job.
he seems so humble, gentle, calmer..
I LOVE MORRISSEY
Ahh, Morrisey is my hero ❤. Thank you for the charming and respectful interview of the most talented, intelligent and humble gentlemen.
Usually can't stand interviews because the interviewer keeps interrupting, or asks stupid questions. I think this lady did fine. She listened to the answers, and Morrissey grew comfortable enough to get cheeky with that assassination bit. Nice to see.
She's so "New York ", and he, so British!
Exactly. Her accent is so strong and you can hardy be more British than Morrissey despite his residence in the States.
Mind blowing to see Rosanna Scotto and Morrissey in the same room much less seeing them both perform a rather polite and informative morning banter on “Good Day New York” (my mouth was open the whole time). Keep in mind that the topics at 9AM are typically along the lines of “Is higher fat content milk chocolate changing the shape of runway models this year at Bryant Park?” I actually think she did a good job making him relaxed and personable, much more so than interviews I’ve seen in the past.
Agreed
I kind of think he hated it
Clear to see the interviewer really doesnt know the smiths work or his legacy well ....or perhaps even if she does it wouldn't really mean much to her . just guessing ...but the interviewees can always perceive this . Certainly this one would
@@violetasuarezcapri4258I'm surprised she didn't ask him about his voice over work on "bob the builder"
He seemed pretty comfortable. He is usually very contrary if he takes a dislike to an interviewer. He is mellowing with age.@@violetasuarezcapri4258
I think Morrissey would've liked the question of higher fat content milk chocolate changing the shape of runway models. I'm sure he would've smirked at that one.
It's official.There isn't a nicer ,more honest and amusing guy on the planet.
Love morrissey ❤❤❤❤
I love the way Mozza quells the excitement of the Host who is very enthusiastic about his appearance.
“What the hell do you expect? Look at you”. Lol 🫶🏽
😂😂😂 love him ❤❤❤
@@Dzanarika1 as do I. 🤟🏽
We all are blessed to be in the presence of this amazing man.
What an absolute legend he is..
I love you Morrissey
It's always great to have a Morrissey interview regardless to who is the person interviewing him. I feel like she had the best of intention's and did some research as to some of his work inevitably and unavoidably. They are always going to ask about the Smiths but that's how things go
What a gorgeously warm interview! Morrissey deserved this lovely spiritual hug for all his hard work + dedication. Gorgeous! I pray, pray, pray I get to be on the front row at your next tour as illness forced me to sell my ticket, but I am dedicating the moral fight I am currently amidst in your name Morrissey! (Which of course is my Divine canine companion’s middle name too.) WE LOVE YOU! X
💖 this has started my day perfectly
A singular artist and one of the few of the last 50 years that people will be listening to 500 years from now. Viva Moz.
Great interview. Just saw him in Orlando and his voice is still great. I’ve seen him three times now in concert through out the years and already looking forward to the fourth time.
He might perform when on stage, but never in interviews... always honest and authentic.
It's funny how unenthusiastic and cold he might seem at first for the uninitiated but Rosanna knew how to handle him and brought warmth and humour out of him. Good interview!
Yes. He’s got that British reserve, but I sense he has a warm heart despite what so many in the media say about him.
Morissey never performs, he 'appears' in his own words; 'seals perform'
@@stevenhartlaub4557 he's Irish actually, by parentage
Only seals perform.
There are great artists out there, but there is just nobody better than Morrissey.
Britney comes very, VERY close
@@sexobscura of course!
Fun fact no.286 ~ Morrissey has not masturbated since October 13th, 1986
one of the true originals left
I love you M❤❤❤❤
You can’t cancel Morissey because he doesn’t give a shit, they tried to but they didn’t stand a chance. LEGEND.
LIke Roger Waters
@@raynehell1217 roger waters is a total normie in the face of The BASED Moz
They're world's apart politically - Waters is involved, Moz isn't interested (he says) - but attempts to cancel them have failed miserably (thankfk)@@ayyleeuz4892
In every interview I have ever seen of Morrissey, he is so gracious and unpretentious. What an amazing human. I listen to his records frequently and it never dulls.
Hold on! ha ha! Morrissey? The Smiths?!? unpretentious?????? ha ha!
@@coolmacatrain9434 Show me an example of when you think Morrissey acted pretentiously.
You must be the only person on the Planet that thinks The Smiths/Morrissey were unpretentious.@@arthousefilms
@@coolmacatrain9434 so I ask you to provide an example and you come back with nothing but hyperbole. Ok.
Ok .. example ... Morrissey waving about a bunch of flowers, whining "I would go out tonight
But I haven't got a stitch to wear" .. whilst the rest of The Smiths are standing on a pile of dead flowers. pretentious, moi?@@arthousefilms
Fantastic interview, I absolutely loved it. So great to be able to see him on TV again. And I really loved the interviewer as well, she was very nice.
@@dzzzzz-bc1vi I disagree. I haven't seen him as comfortable as in this interview in years, decades even.
"Yes...but we shouldn't talk about it now" that was great
😂❤
"Unless I'm assassinated" 😂 God I love this man 😍
What does he mean by that ?
@@ValeriaCarranza24 Literally what he said...
@@ashbridgeprojects6916 but why does he think that
@@ValeriaCarranza24 Because his political views are dangerous to the elites. Why do you think nobody will associate with him any more? The elites have made him persona non grata. No record deals, no publicity, nothing really.
@@ashbridgeprojects6916 well I didn’t know that thanks
He seems very relaxed and comfortable in his own skin here.
He's becoming far more natural in interviews, really great to see.
Great interview. She is the 'Morrissey Whisperer'. He seemed so relaxed.
When this man writes, speaks, sings its always interesting and refreshing......
He's in great form here. Nice to see.
What an adorable and endearing interview! I could listen to these two talk to each other all day!
i love this man
Humble , shy , a Irish poet in every sense of the word . He will say what he needs to say if you like it or not. Always loved him for his honesty
He's English.
@@hkpr-ro6ui Irish background , did you ever hear his song “Irish heart , English heart “ ?
@@billlombard9911I have an Irish "background" in that my great grandfather came from Ireland. I'm English. As is Morrissey.
@@hkpr-ro6ui good for you ! He has American and Canadian cousins . I know one of his cousins who live in NYC
@@billlombard9911 Great. Morrissey is English. He doesn't need someone else to define him what he isn't.
He’s more chatty as he’s aging.🙃 Legend, LOVE him!!!❤️❤️❤️
He speaks word's of wisdom about the bs happening today
A true gem. I loved him 40 years ago and still do today. The musicians today can not hold a candle to Morrissey.
Love that Tie Morrissey
Morrisey has always been morrisey
Love him forever. Great to see him, and looking so well too. Viva Morrissey!
I never really got into "The Smiths" but just listening to him for the first time in an interview. Comes across as a very nice guy. No doubt very talented.
Just saw him for the 3rd time and it was the best. On top of his game
Love how she says so it’s 40 years of Morrissey and he goes Yes at 4:06
one of the most underrated artists of all time. Morrissey is one of the best singers/songwriters of all time. We love you Morrissey.
Absolutely not.
In Great Britain he's very influential; even current day.
He's so quintessentially English eccentric.
With regard to Smiths songwriting, that would be Johnny Marr.
Morrissey the lyrics.
Regards from Kensington and Chelsea; in London.
@@steffanhoffmann I agree. he is influential but again as I stated nothing near what he should be given his years of writing excellent music. Even in England he is not as influential as most artists sadly. Yes most musicians give him praise (Noel Gallagher etc) and people know of him and hood the smiths as one od the best bands of all time but given how many years he has been putting out top quality music, he is still not where he should be. I wish he would get the full recognition he deserves.
Also, while marr wrote the music to smiths songs just like street, white, etc wrote the music to
Morrissey songs, the melody and lyrics has been morrissey and while yes the chord prorgression of morrissey songs and Marrs guitar playing is held as one of the best guitarists of all time, morrissey ability to write lyrics and the melody is by far most important since he has proven to create quality music with various different musicians.
Reminder that most people Judge a song by the melody and lyrics not by chord profession. He is not just a lyricist.
Best wishes to you.
@@mrjelly5718I agree with everything you said!
@@ZakFlores915 You would!
Don't worry, I was imagining what Morrissey might have written 😂 👍
@@mrjelly5718 I agree with most of it, except melody chord progression. To my knowledge, he doesn't play a musical instrument.
Even in the Smiths video of How Soon Is Now, he can be seen with Marr, who is showing him; where to put his hands on the fret. So unless you can convince me otherwise, I'm afraid we'll have to agree to differ.
It might come into my head that I'm jealous of someone doing well but then I'll wobble my head & just realise I'm happy for that person.
Sweet memories of 'The smiths' in the 80's songs of my youth. Still listen to them and Morrissey's music🎶💚
A remarkably easy listen - sometimes I cringe ecstatically when I watch this delight of a man in an interview :D So glad people are starting to get him and know how to meet him with perfect balance xx Bravo Rosanna ! Bravo Mozzzzaaaa xxx
I love this man. I just do.
Ive been a fan since 1984..i feel old...long live Moz....
My younger brother was a fan from the 1st Smiths single onwards; took me a few years before I changed from loathing to loving his lyrics and voice. I'm old, in my 7th decade; barely a day goes by without finding myself singing some Smiths or Morrissey song to myself
Hi Fox, I'm just here for Morrissey!!
I love him and his brutal honesty every single time. So refreshing.
I expected this to be a difficult interview knowing hes usually reserved and hates most questions cause theyre so repetitive and shallow in interviews. Surprisingly wholesome.
I love Morrissey!! Great interview!! ❤❤❤
The only artist who speaks the truth
Him and John Lydon. Proper gentlemen both.
He has canceled twice on shows I was on the road to see and yet I'd try again. Damn You Moz!!!!
Love him. Too interesting to be on TV over here in Blighty. Viva moz!
one of the greatest singers ever
A brave and noble man, God bless Morrissey!
