Morrissey's new album has a title (see above) and release date (around 3/21). There's a just-updated studio diary on producer Tony Visconti's site. Photos too.
"Irish Blood English Heart" popped up on the iPod the other day. Sounds especially fantastic when you haven't listened to it in a year.
Favorite Morrissey rumor ... go:

"I heard he eats babies"
Morrisy would like you to beleive that he doesn't eat babies, but he has never gone on record saying he doesn't. Maybe thats becasue he is to busy eating babies.

My favourite rumour is that morrissey smokes a lot of pot and has a liking for circuit queens.
well i wouldn't say it was a rumour, but that's what this strange dood on the bus told me one day after he saw my morrissey pin. i had a few j's on me and i'm sure he could smell them, because when i didn't buy the story that he was partying with morrissey he went for the "just found out i had cancer" route....

Gosh you guys seriously don't know shit about any of this music, specially when your calling it EMO you FOOOOOOOLLLL! if you listen to the songs and just look at the guy he quite obviously isn't emo you fucking dick. None of you know morrisey except from his songs so how the fuck would you know hes A homo? If you knew him you would know he isn't and as a matter fact hes even said he isn't your the gay one.. saying he's emo as a bad thing and then googling him, obviously you like him or you wouldn't have googled him. EMOOOOOOOOO. Morissey is a class song writer and doesn't lack in common sense unlike some, he might be a veggy and be celabate but that doesn't mean hes an emo freak. Goshh.
up on the sand upon the bay theres a quick and easy way you say before you illustrate i'd rather stay i'm not the man you think i am i'm not the man you think i am.
