I had an older friend many yrs ago who Morrissery reminds me of, his looks, his demeanor, his wit, him as a friend. As Nancy walked into his home it took me back to visits with my friend. As for Morrissey he is a genius, no doubt about it. 🇮🇪 🏴
His eccentricity helps make me love my own. There’s something very real about him and yet he’s got this dreamy old school glamour - and the combination is entrancing
He's a real 🤡. Love his music. The Smiths are one of thee all time great bands but Morrissey as a person is a miserable git who come out with some amount of garbage.
i hate how the british try to make everything gay. those fans literally see morrissey as a savior, it isnt gay, its sad on multiple levels but impressive that morrissey gets that kind of treatment
Good point. It is a trait of the North London media. This documentary format is another dreadful outgrowth of the talentless middle class north Londoner.
Never understood the hate towards Morrissey. Would you haters prefer he didn’t exist or died? Is it because he’s defiantly his own man and not afraid to speak his mind?
Can’t believe I am only just seeing this now, nearly 20 years on! Thoroughly enjoyed it. Extremely interesting insight into the man and (naturally) great music throughout!
I think heterosexual men love him, not sexually, but because nobody else speaks for mens insecurity, loneliness, and lack of confidence. Women are sympathised with constantly but men are just left to cope. Morrisey gives them a voice.
You know, I originally thought Morrissey was off base with the vegetarian thing, but once you listen to him, he can make alot of sense. Because the pieces of his puzzle fall into place and you can see the connections and the overall impact of his message.
That's gotta drive him crazy though, he's as cordial as it gets but some fans just let their emotions run wild and they absolutely mug poor Morrissey. He is really one of a kind, Him and Marrs was a great team musically. @12:20- I couldn't help but hear that song, That's sounds like the song Faron Young by Prefab Sprouts, Did The Smiths originally write that or what? I can also hear how the group Danny Wilson got inspiration from this song on their song {Girl I used to know} well least I think so.
@Kevin Murtagh. It’s Marc Bolan. And yes Cosmic dancer is brilliant. The Electric Warrior LP is one of my all time favourites. Monolith being a favourite.
about db Steven tell as:" not now"...hahaha Bowie much more then art is,Morrissey is always STAY in rocabilly pop stuff, which is very old state of music and images, looks...etc
pure genius , best vocalist , along with bowie , 2 of the best British frontmen in the world bar none. when it comes to singers , real singers those are the 2 and robert plant , so 3 . Yes sir , so when i sing in the shower or on the beach at 4am , these are the 3 top English vocalists of all time for me.
As a straight woman I adore him. 1985 Edinburgh Playhouse, the smiths. It’s been a love affair every since. My husband teased me for going to see them. 37 years on and he is as big a fan as me and I tease him that he missed out on the smiths. My son is gay and he said it was an easy move coming out to us because of our taste in music, little does he know that we would have accepted him regardless. Morrissey fans are rather special. 💐it’s not gladioli but it’s near enough. 💐
I really wish people would accept the truth. Johnny Marr and Morrissey we're lovers. They never admitted it, but.johnny wanted out of the relationship, but Morrissey didn't. He loved Johnny, now I can't say how Johnny felt. A lot of people then got into gay relationships but after a while changed their minds and wanted to declare nothing ever happened. I hate those types.
Yes I've been through it that's why I know what happened. Many of my friends been through it. Boy George and Jon Moss. Jon declared for years there was nothing between them but a trans like Boy George isn't going to ride away quietly into the sunset. Several of those I loved don't want it ever known they were with me.
Morrissey is an extremely eccentric person, and probably why he and Johnny's relationship couldn't work. Eccentric people are very hard to get on with. But Morrissey is highly intelligent why his career excelled.
I'm also an eccentric and was always hard to understand. Why I understand him so well. People in my old neighborhoods just called me crazy but I was just eccentric.
ANOTHER KEY POINT I NOTE MORRISSEY`S SUCCESS IS NOT OVERWHELMING IN THE USA ,THE COUNTRY OF BLUES / JAZZ , COUNTRY MUSIC AND ROCK AND ROLL .I ADVISE THOSE IN THIS DOCUMENTARY TO LISTEN TO BILLIE HOLLIDAY
You should always make sure that everything that is on the seats in your car is properly held in place, for example a Dog should be properly harnessed in. If you break fast or you crash your car what ever is in the seat could fly of the seats and hit someone in the car kill them or injure or hurt them or fly out of the car and hit someone around the car and kill them or seriously hurt or injure them. You could also kill or hurt or injure the thing that is in your passenger seat if it is something like a dog or a cat.
I am so confused by the man whose lyrics were the soundtrack to my life...is he a terrible fucking racist or is he in fact so clever that he confused us all?
Of course he's not. He's interested in national identity among many other subjects he addresses in his lyrics. Yelling racist at anyone who writes on these matters is simply moronic.
Joyce and Rourke never contributed to the writing of those songs and it was a 40,40, 10, 10 split on agreement because of that. The smiths were Marr and Morrissey the other two were just window dressing.
I don't like Morrissey because he complained about letting too many immigrants into England yet he did a gig in 'Israel'... so what he wants for himself he doesn't want for the Palestinians apparently. I dont like the way he appears to presume to speak on behalf of the underdogs of Britain considering he's been rich and famous for nearly forty years now and couldn't possibly understand how it really feels to be a modern day working class British person.

Brilliantly put.
I Try not to look at Morrissey as a god. There's only one God. But he's a very extraordinary man. I'll always admire him.
where can I get the Sept 17 2002 Royal Albert Hall concert ?
mrpentium time machine
I was there.
The Simpsons episode brought me here.
“That’s why it’s a frightened city, it’s a police city” Hello post-George Floyd-2020!
What a horrible curse to have dudes rushing the stage to get to you.
Wasn't expecting him to rip into David Bowie. Wow morrissey is the real deal
Bowie deserved it. He pulled a power trip & Moz called him out.
Anyone can bash someone. Problem is when his narcissism and whining is seen as “having balls”🙄
He's a real 🤡. Love his music. The Smiths are one of thee all time great bands but Morrissey as a person is a miserable git who come out with some amount of garbage.
The most important cultural figure in my lifetime.
The great irony of Morrissey is that he is an iconoclast who loves to be worshipped. On the whole, however, a rather decent fellow.
i hate how the british try to make everything gay. those fans literally see morrissey as a savior, it isnt gay, its sad on multiple levels but impressive that morrissey gets that kind of treatment

The Dallas 1991 show where kids were bombarding the stage. I was there with my best friend and my future wife.
Saw him recently in Birmingham. He's amazing live. Genius.
Can’t believe I am only just seeing this now, nearly 20 years on! Thoroughly enjoyed it. Extremely interesting insight into the man and (naturally) great music throughout!
The Beatles and The Smiths..the best 2 bands ever. Good to know that he was very good friends with Linda McCartney (because of the Veggie stuff).
Now this man is a genius
This man makes me smile ….
Greatest ever Frontman and lyricist EVER!!!!!!!!
John prime who give him a run for his money
Robert Palmer
i have to agree
Ian Curtis too. Two incredible lyricists from Manchester.
Morrissey =genius
Such a contradiction of dreams, I find I hate him and love him in equal measure.
a conflicted artist indeed
Me too 💐
“A little row of semis…”, that made me chuckle.
Oo-errr 😊
I think heterosexual men love him, not sexually, but because nobody else speaks for mens insecurity, loneliness, and lack of confidence. Women are sympathised with constantly but men are just left to cope. Morrisey gives them a voice.
Truth...
Well said. He speaks for us in these regards while maintaining a unwavering sense of masculinity. Iconic.
I quite simply adore Morrissey, always have always will. Who needs friends when you know Morrissey exists.
You know, I originally thought Morrissey was off base with the vegetarian thing, but once you listen to him, he can make alot of sense. Because the pieces of his puzzle fall into place and you can see the connections and the overall impact of his message.
Wasn't he in a relationship with Tina then, so why be so mysterious?
He brings the gay out in straight men I love it 😂😂😂😂
And here was me thinking I knew a lot about morrissey……turned out I knew hardly anything
A fascinating look at a genius.
That's gotta drive him crazy though, he's as cordial as it gets but some fans just let their emotions run wild and they absolutely mug poor Morrissey.
He is really one of a kind,
Him and Marrs was a great team musically.
@12:20- I couldn't help but hear that song,
That's sounds like the song
Faron Young by Prefab Sprouts,
Did The Smiths originally write that or what?
I can also hear how the group
Danny Wilson got inspiration from this song on their
song {Girl I used to know} well least I think so.
14:46 made me chuckle!
Marc Boland was a legend
Cosmic dancer
@Kevin Murtagh. It’s Marc Bolan. And yes Cosmic dancer is brilliant. The Electric Warrior LP is one of my all time favourites. Monolith being a favourite.
Absolutely and he appeals to a new generation. My 16 year old loves him
Imaging being incaple of comprehending Morrissey
I want people to make a documentary about me and call it the importance of being Rodríguez. Oh wait.. it does sound so unimportant already. 😢
about db Steven tell as:" not now"...hahaha Bowie much more then art is,Morrissey is always STAY in rocabilly pop stuff, which is very old state of music and images, looks...etc
Speaks to the homoerotic heterosexual? .. bit presumptuous 😂
In small doses lest one relapse into teenage despondency & melancholia.
I love the part where he plays the Diana Dors record
Great track.
Diana Dors was pure evil.
Morrissey is Shakespeare reincarnated.....
⭐️ Chrisse explains what I knew at Record Companies happens 🌙
RIP Andy Rourke 🙏
The ultimate anti-hero. Unique.
This sound is trash. I get that its recorded on a potato but I can't hear anything.
pure genius , best vocalist , along with bowie , 2 of the best British frontmen in the world bar none.
when it comes to singers , real singers those are the 2 and robert plant , so 3 .
Yes sir , so when i sing in the shower or on the beach at 4am , these are the 3 top English vocalists of all time for me.
Robert Palmer.
Dylan, Bowie and this dude.
Elvis, Bolan, Bowie and Morrissey just for starters but definitely the first four.
Morrissey, Thom Yorke, Robert Smith
As a gay man, Morrissey is the hero I dreamed of!
I’m a straight man, using my girlfriend’s youtube channel, and he’s my musical hero too!!! Because he’s fucking awesome.
As a straight woman I adore him. 1985 Edinburgh Playhouse, the smiths. It’s been a love affair every since. My husband teased me for going to see them. 37 years on and he is as big a fan as me and I tease him that he missed out on the smiths.

@Michael Mach huh?
I would love to hear his views on "hatred of law forces" now in a state renowned for "LA STREETS OF HUMAN FAECES!"
Oh no! Bono! Take him away! That horrid J.K Rowling too!
JK Rowling, Will Self, Bono. Good god no
Bono is great, but the money changed U2. Morrissey is quitte rich,but still the same.
Well, there, fans of his..
Nasty little lot. They don't make much of an impact , thank goodness.
@@madforit2
Just no.
I' wish I could be Morrissey!
I really wish people would accept the truth. Johnny Marr and Morrissey we're lovers. They never admitted it, but.johnny wanted out of the relationship, but Morrissey didn't.

A lot straights indulge in gay situations. I was an escort and most of my customers were not gay men but straight ones.
Morrissey is an extremely eccentric person, and probably why he and Johnny's relationship couldn't work. Eccentric people are very hard to get on with. But Morrissey is highly intelligent why his career excelled.
I'm also an eccentric and was always hard to understand. Why I understand him so well. People in my old neighborhoods just called me crazy but I was just eccentric.

He is my perfect man

+Sam Tolley can I have what ever your injecting ?
While munching on a steak sandwich. Enough with the lecture already and go listen to some rock and roll, might loosen you up a bit.
Why do i get the feeling you're speaking from experience?
Morrissey is too good for us, we are not worthy.
Sam and Alex
I am so confused by the man whose lyrics were the soundtrack to my life...is he a terrible fucking racist or is he in fact so clever that he confused us all?
Nothing wrong w speaking the truth. Don’t just have a knee jerk reaction because the msm has taught you how to think.
He is Morrissey, He is an enigma
Of course he's not. He's interested in national identity among many other subjects he addresses in his lyrics. Yelling racist at anyone who writes on these matters is simply moronic.
Grow up.
Noel Gallagher says "the music industry id full of wankers" Lol!.....i guess he doesn't include himself in that popular category?
I'm older than mature morrissey but not as old as ancient morrissey. life is strange
Bury the hatchet with Mike Joyce, eh? He and Andy Rourke earned that money. It’s as simple as that.
Back then they Joyce agreed on a 40-40-10-10 split. He admitted it himself. Joyce was lucky to win the courtcase.
@@jean-paulbelmondo3773 you don’t know the back story, who financed the smith,
@@kevinmurtagh3434 Tell us then Kevin.
Never let the truth get in the way off a good story.
But they had over £20 k
To start the band and it wasn’t morrisey.
Joyce and Rourke never contributed to the writing of those songs and it was a 40,40, 10, 10 split on agreement because of that. The smiths were Marr and Morrissey the other two were just window dressing.
Morrissey is the soundtrack of the covert narcissist

Crap!
What’s crap is that beard. Imagine watching something you don’t like. It’s time you can never get back.
@@headron66
How long were you hovering over the keys to come up with that? Deserving of Morrissey alright.
I'm not Gay but I love Morrissey
