IT'S SUNDAY, I'M INLOVE WITH MORRISSEY, AND YOU......#59

Can't believe its that day of the week already.....

Today's offering goes back to 1997 and I was waiting to buy Maladjusted. was the second single to be taken off the LP Maladjusted. Unusually for a Morrissey single, he's nowhere to be seen on the cover - instead its a 1950s photo in a London street (I have to be honest when I bought the CD single that it thought the photo had been taken in the 1970s.....)

But there is a snap of the great man himself inside, looking as handsome as ever in a grey checked jacket and white shirt, leaning against an old juke-box.

The reason I'm saying so much about the sleeve is that I really don't have all that much to offer about the actual single which I reckon is one of the poorest and dullest he's ever released.

No tune to speak off and a rather lame lyric that relies totally on a pun. In fact, given there's no promo video for the song, I'm guessing there was more enthusiasm from the record company than Morrissey himself.

I can just imagine some executive thinking.... 'maybe all those Manchester United fans will think its about one of their players....

Morrissey - Roy's Keen

Morrissey - Lost

Morrissey - The Edges Are No Longer Parallel

I know there's quite a few fans that love the song Lost, but I think that Danielle, as the cover sleeve would have given Morrissey, a top ten just for the cover, and not a just OK - it would have made it hard for You Are The Quarry some 7 years later to dominate ...

Happy SUNDAY.

MORRISSEY, GIRL.......#58

Brown eye Danielle, L.A. lady, crazy for MORRISSEY, Pretty smile, New York style, you'll marry a MORRISSEY, man singing, I must have seen her dancing in the show And now she's in me, always with me, singing MORRISSEY, in my heart
I freaks out in the street Handing pictures out of her God is happy Turning back she just laughs She knows she made a dream
MORRISSEY, man I make my stand In the MORRISSEY, show she's Looking at me she sings the song The words she knows, the tune she loves
But now this feels so real Danielle, here with no one near Only me, and I can hear her When she says softly, slowly "I loved you all my life, you made me happy in thios world."
Danielle, MORRISSEY, lady,
Hold me closer Danielle, my MORRISSEY, dancer We'll count the stars on the sky Lay you down in sheets of MORRISSEY, of me you had a GORGEOUS life.....

Walk on.......#57

And love is not the easy thing

The only baggage that you can bring...

And love is not the easy thing...

The only baggage you can bring

Is all that you can't leave behind

And if the darkness is to keep us apart

And if the daylight feels like it's a long way off

And if your glass heart should crack

And for a second you turn back Oh no, be strong

Walk on, walk on

What you got they can't steal it

No they can't even feel it

Walk on, walk on...

Stay safe tonight

You're packing a suitcase for a place none of us has been

A place that has to be believed to be seen

You could have flown away

A singing bird in an open cage

Who will only fly, only fly for freedom

Walk on, walk on

What you've got they can't deny it

Can't sell it, or buy it

Walk on, walk on

Stay safe tonight

And I know it aches

And your heart it breaks

And you can only take so much

Walk on, walk on

Home... hard to know what it is if you've never had one

Home... I can't say where it is but I know I'm going home

That's where the hurt is

I know it aches How your heart it breaks

And you can only take so much

Walk on, walk on

Leave it behind You got to leave it behind

All that you fashion

All that you make

All that you build

All that you break

All that you measure

All that you feel

All this you can leave behind

All that you reason

All that you sense

All that you speak

All you dress-up All that you scheme...

SOMETIMES WE ASK WHY?????.....#56

R.E.M. – Country Feedback: My friend's son has cancer. They are in hospital on the ward. He has just come back from neurosurgery for his brain tumour (his second in under a month). It is his last chance. But it could leave him blind, paralysed; who knows only god,. The mix of fear and hope and trying not to have too much of either. I can’t sleep. I’ve been playing R.E.M. a lot. But this is the track that counts. The knotted tight emotions. The feeling that no-one else can understand. Like sex and drugs and alcohol, you just can’t adequately explain how watching your child die in your care and you can't do nothing about it over a protracted period feels to those who haven’t gone through it. And anger below the surface. I’m not normally good at hearing lyrics but the words “We've been through fake-a-breakdown, Self hurt, Plastics, Collections, Self help, self pain, EST, psychics, fuck all” express it all. The anger at the religious who in their pity will pray for you. The anger at the New Angers who will cure with crystals and incantation. The unutterable sadness from the repeated refrain of “It's crazy what you could've had”. Knowing that he's dying. Knowing I am right. And hating myself for it. Life and it's ways at times we can only hope. Only god, knows how and why.....

NEVER GET OLD.....#55

Better take care

Think I better go, better get a room

Better take care of me

Again and again

I think about this and I think about personal history

Better take care

I breathe so deep when the movie gets real

When the star turns round

Again and again
He looks me in the eye says he's got his mind on a countdown 3-2-1

Forever

I'm screaming that I'm gonna be living on till

the end of time

Forever

The sky splits open to a dull red skull

My head hangs low 'cause it's all over now

And there's never gonna be enough money

And there's never gonna be enough drugs

And I'm never ever gonna get old

There's never gonna be enough bullets

There's never gonna be enough sex

And I'm never ever gonna get old

So I'm never ever gonna get high

And I'm never ever gonna get low

And I'm never ever gonna get old

Better take care

The moon flows on to the edges of the world because of you

Again and again

And I'm awake in an age of light living it because of you

Better take care

I'm looking at the future solid as a rock because of you

Again and again

Wanna be here and I wanna be there

Living just like you, living just like me

Forever

Putting on my gloves and bury my bones in the marshland

Forever

Think about my soul but I don't need a thing just the ring of the bell in the pure clean air

And I'm running down the street of life

And I'm never gonna let you die

And I'm never ever gonna get old

And I'm never ever gonna get

I'm never ever gonna get

I'm never ever gonna get old

And I'm never ever gonna get

And I'm never ever gonna get

Never ever gonna get old...................

I CAN'T NEVER ASK FOR MORE.....#54

Gazing at the stars in a dark cold night

Uttering sweet words beneath pale moonlight

I wish you can see I wish you can hear

I wish you can kiss and hold me tight
I close my eyes and shed those tears

Thinking how far you are from me

Then I look above and see the stars How they light, they glitter and sparkle

Despite how far they are by sight
I find myself smiling as I realize That though distance between us

Kept us apart but only in body And never in heart
You gave me reason to smile You gave me reason to hope

You gave me so much and

I can never ask for more
And if I have one thing to thank right now

That's when you came into my life!

MY HEART SKIPS A BEAT HERE NOW AND THEN....#53

With every beat of my heart

I feel yours inside of mine,

Together they beat as one Keeping perfect time.

With every beat of my heart

I hear yours inside of mine,Our chance to be together

The beat says it's nearly time.With every beat of my heart

I know that yours does to,And every time it pumps

I know I'm feeling you.With every beat of my heart
I listen close to what it says,

I hear yours calling mine And it knows it must obey.

With every beat of my heart

I feel mine loving you, And with every beat of yours

I know you love me too.

With every beat of my heart

It hurts when you say good bye, And with every beat of my heart

Drops another tear I cry.

With every beat of my heart

I miss you all the more,

The beat grows ever louder Until it's like a thunderous roar.

For with every beat of my heart

Inside I feel the pain, Right now mine beats alone

And I'm missing you again.

With every beat of my heart

I need yours here to stay, For I miss you all the more Every time you go away..............

MY HEART TO YOUR HEART.....#52

Do you remember when you felt in love for the first time?Felt like you on top of the world Not thinking if one day you'll fall Oh no, don't say its true,
Well I got this message from the real world You're happy, was he happy too?You loved him in all his needed love I stand in details following you
The cry of your heart is killing me

I write a new chapter Just pictures of Danielle,I ain't got much and I ain't gonna hurt you I'm hoping to where you stand but the real world stops me half way

My heart to your heart, searching for us I know one day we will be in love So strung right in each other's love Hitting our all-time high

Time as to time and again I tell myself Ill stay away from you But the little brown eyes are all I see Oh no, not again I'm stuck with a valuable blog I'm so happy, hope you're happy too One plus two plus one no smoking to start

I never done this before

I never done bad things

I didn't just like you out of the blue,

Want a kiss to break the door Wanna come in right now

My heart to your heart, searching for us I know one day we will be in love So strung right in each other's love Hitting our all-time high To never hit down

My mother said to not get a broken heart you better stay away from Danielle................

IF OUR LOVE SONG CAN FLY OVER MOUNTAINS......#51

Somewhere in my dreams

I hear your voice Whispering gently....into thin air At the edge of the mountain I close my eyes Sensing your breathing...feeling you appear there On the edge of my dreams

I see your face A twin soul......when we share eyes At the edge of the mountain I catch my breath Touching our finger tips...mouth goes dry In the shadows of my dreams

I taste your lips So soft against mine like a warm rain At the edge of the mountain my heart slows Sharing our every breath....two hearts don't refrain In the deepest part of my dreams

I feel your touch Breathless....from the warmth of your skin At the edge of the mountain I open my eyes Seeing only clouds....feeling.... within On the edge of my dreams is where I want to stay It's there...I'm forever in your arms...safe...sound At the edge of the mountain

I'll remain breathless For me.....no greater love will ever be found

Will you always be there on the edge of my dreams?

Will you always meet me to the edge of the mountain?

I will wait for you...be there for you....always.

LOVE GENERATION.........#50

In over two decades with the world, Danielle has stolen more than 15 million hearts around the globe, proving herself master of every kind of love from human symphonies to unplugged ballads.
Her eyes and smile to take you away! she was released to the world as a special Angel-like a MORRISSEY disc deluxe edition which includes every good song he has ever writing! (re-mastered since its original release), Danielle!, a live soul and a woman featuring everything I ever wanted in a woman, ranging from her hair on Top of her head to her toes I can't ever ask for more.
It's safe to say that Danielle, single-handedly persuaded my hearty lust for smart, danceable soul-lovely music. This compilation of a girl is a must-own for any soul. And if you were to take it from me, well, that would just be un - delightful and I would hunt you down for the rest of my life....

I am the quarry, Jay

IT'S SUNDAY, I'M IN LOVE....WITH MORRISSEY AND YOU....#49

I remember back in '97' when I had my first summer job, getting my first check and cashing it. I walk straight to the record store that day. To buy my first Morrissey, cd with my own money the album was "Your Arsenal" and aslo The single taken from Your Arsenal it surely contains one of the laziest in my opinion ever

Morrissey lyrics:-
"You're the one for me, fatty You're the one I really, really love And I will stay Promise you'll say If I'm in your way"

All over Battersea Some hope and some despair
Repeated umpteen times with the occasional Buddy Holly impressions(a-hey) thrown in for padding.
It played the album everyday for three weeks straight and had me a bit worried about how it was all going to turn out. As it was, Fatty was one of the poorest tracks on the LP and was soon a candidate for frequent use of the skip button on the CD player. But somehow It was the first track I'd turn to.
Sometimes disappointing singles get rescued by decent tracks on the b-side, but sadly these efforts are quite forgettable.

Morrissey - You're The One For Me, Fatty

Morrissey - Pashernate Love

Morrissey - There Speaks A True Friend

At least the cover was a cracker.....another Linder Sterling photo taken at a concert in Chicago in 1991.

But my opinions weren't shared by the general public....it was a single that climbed higher in the charts than any of those taken from Kill Uncle, hitting #19 in July 1992. I knew this thanks to the hip and worth watching MTV at the time.

Having said that, I was not going to leave Danielle, behind looking at the great face so many want to interview. This week I promote her as the best new LP, maybe all of us should sing her favorite track at the forthcoming concerts........

Happy Sunday of so many Sundays, Jay

HOW COULD ANYBODY POSSIBLY KNOW HOW I FEEL........#48

How would anyone know of the love I have for you,

The one that burns so steady and true. Should I be silent be still and never say a word,

And not let this beautiful message be heard.
Or instead should I shout it out loud,

The love I have for you of which I'm so proud. Any man would give all he is worth,

To have a love like this while here on earth.
Should I let the world know how I feel,

So everyone will realize it is indeed real. Are there others in this world my love who feel as I do,

But don't have the words to help them get through.
You and I still walk our own way every night,

Either our fingers entwined or you holding me tight. The kisses still mean so very much to me,

Your hands, your soft and sensual touch. You see these feelings never go away Mrs. Danielle,

It doesn't matter if you turn old and gray to me.
Would you look at me when I have passed away,

And ask How did I feel, I don't know she never did ask. Well, I will not be silent until the end,

You're my Angel, my lover and my best friend.

We have been in me for an eternity,

And it still burns so brightly for me.

MORRISSEY'S BIRTHDAY...........#47

Dearest Morrissey,

You have been the most influential figure in my life. You have all the qualities of a true worldly icon- genius, beauty, style, intelligence, grace, humility, well timed aggressive delivery, recognition of past influences, brilliance, poet, savior, voice, etc.... Your life is yours and rightly only yours, but has positively impacted so many, including my own. 50 years is infancy for you. Your meaning and words and life do and will always stand as immortal. Thank you for all you have given to my mind, body, soul and emotional being. Words will never due justice of your worth to humanity. Those who have yet to be graced by your godliness, may they soon see the light. Here's to you and the hope of seeing you again soon, even if only from standing room only floor space. I hold my glass up high and cheers in your honor!

May your best wishes be fulfilled,

Your fan of many fans, Jay

I found this letter and loved every pice of it;

When I turned 40, I wanted to hide, and well, now, 50 seems so natural. Like it’s not a big deal. After it hit me, the big 4-0.But you, Morrissey, my baby, well I’d like to say 50 - Mmmmm. You don’t look it. By no means. No way. No how. Nope, as a matter of fact, you look like you are in your thirties.Because the world we live in, it’s sooo shallow, superficial, which is why I mention it. Isn’t it ... But to me, and I’m not speaking for the world, which is so shallow. To me ... I love you no matter what yor age, or what you look like. Whether yor 50, 68, 75, 52, 99. Because I love "you", the whole package.The fact that yor beautiful and skinny at 50. Well, these are just the facts. You are, yep. But, even if you looked old, like soooo many other singers in their 40s and 50s, then I’d say it. But you don't -- you look drop dead gorgeous. Because, I am a no nonsense type of a person. I say the truth. I keep it real.But you have to understand something, you, you ... Well, when I first encountered The Smiths in college in the mid to late 80s and then when my first bf who gave me Louder Than Bombs, and then my first supervisor at my first job who I told I loved Girlfriend in a Coma to, well he made me his own compilation with Girlfriend in a Coma. I never even knew what you looked like, not really, ya know. So this was years that I loved you, before, BEFORE I knew what you "really" looked like (in specifications). So, if I saw you in the streets in the 80s, I wouldn’t have known “that’s Morrissey “. Or Johnny Marr for that matter. I loved you before I knew what you looked like. Bottom line.I don’t know why after all these years, I started to see you in a different light. Rewind -- actually, I do. And in a different way, ways. And then, at PA, NJ, ... and most importantly ... that casino in Mashantucket. Foxwoods. Oh - My - God.I have something else to say. “I”, I did mean all of those syrupy, sentimental, things, that, I said... Mmmmm Hmmmm all of my messages from around 2000. And ... Yesterrrrdaaaay. Isn’t it.And after all these years, I still do. That’s right, and it’ll continue. I keep my word.Thanks for always being there for me. I’ll always be here for you. Every little surprise you gave me, well I want you to know ... none of them were unnoticed. They meant everything to me, and they still do. This also shall continue. I have this feeling, I can’t explain it, the “connection”.Happy Birthday Baaaay--Beeee. I Love You Sooooo Much.

ALL I SEE.....#46

When my eyes are close I am wrapped up in your arms,
I feel safer than ever before.
When you stare into my eyes, its a feeling I can't ignore.

I know this isn't just a game,because, what I feel for you,
I never felt with anyone else.
When I am close to you I am overwhelmed with happiness.You're what I've been waiting for my whole life.
You're someone I can share my love with,
you take away my fears.Words can't express how much I love you.
But, through this short amount of time,
I hope you realize that my love for you is real.
I'm not just saying this to play games,
and I can only hope you feel the same.
With you, is where I want to be because I found someone who loves things I love.
You give me all the reason in the world to believe that you won't hurt me and I won't hurt you in anyway.
And if I ever lost you,
I don't know what I would do.You probably think I am crazy,but truthfully I'm not.
Every time that were together,
it's a whole new experience for me.
All I see in this world,
is no one else but you and me.

MORRISSEY'S B-DAY IS TOMORROW, Jay

ALMOST THERE.....#45

When I see your smile

My pain goes away My heart's filled with joy

The rest of the day

When you speak to me

I know not what to say

My mind all goes blank All I can get out is "Hey" and "To hang out with you"

Would be my heart's desire It would light up my spirits
Like gas on a fire But I can't show my love

Can't show you the truth

Can't explain how I've felt

Ever since my youth

Cuz you love another

That I see clearly Another cares for you

Like I do, so dearly So I sit and I wait To see you again I wait just to hear

How your day's been

I'd love to tell you

That I'll admit But a simple conversation Is as close as I get.

Miss. Monroe, I'm so into you, Jay

WHAT WORDS CAN DESCRIBE.........#44

Like the mist of morning, like the calm of night, Where there is magic, nature reveals destinies plight, I long to hold you, to be with you near, But my heart aches as my dreams echo your mystic magic whispering in my ear.

Can a woman be so majestic and so infinitely true? The truth is my love, I have only ever desired one such as you. What words can describe your beauty? What pen dare attempt to replicate in thought and paper the gift of love you inherently possess - The essence of your eyes, the redolence of your lips, The feminism of your style, the magic your heart beats.

My love, in my own despair, My heart longs for this feeling which can be found nowhere. This mystic power which hypnotises my reason, Can only give way to my confidences treason.
How long I have melted beneath your radiant magic, ... please my dear love, don't end our fate tragic, If promises are promises and my honour your trusts virtue, Never doubt my sincerity, for I could never hurt you, And if wishes are only wishes which can never come true, Then don't wish for anything for my sincerity is for you, And if my honesty is not as pure as the gold that you think, Then allow me to unravel Love's power with the blessing of your wink.

Oh! If only you were to grasp the extent my imagination portrays you for, Your sweet love is my desire, I can ask for no more, My sweet love, you will never find a heart more true, My only desire is your absent days fewer, From my soul cries a message so loud and so clear, I only want to be with you - in my arms hold you near, Please take my hand and I'll comfort you dear, Love builds on love and truly casts out all of fear.

Sometimes my mind dries up this passion of hope so true, My dear love, I have insecurities of my chances with you, I have dreams of your rose lips, your perfect window eyes, Oh my sweet nightingale, what have you to hide?

If you love me then blast this trumpet of fate, The direction our love enters we will architect, and destiny a new dimension take. I cannot sleep at nights wondering why I love you so, I pray God grant me strength as to let my wisdom grow, For many times I've pondered whether you feel the magicians blessing so strong, It can make mortals lovers and lovers can do no immortal wrong.

One thing I am certain, this I promise you now, Of my sincerity and loyalty, none can ever match the beauty of your brow, So take my hand my dear and together we'll reach out to the mystery above, For we have the blessing of our fate, as you are my one and only true love..

If only right? Jay

LETTER TO DANIELLE......#43

The hand that wrote this letter Sweeps the pillow clean So rest your head and read a treasured dream I care for no one else but you I tear my soul to cease the pain I think maybe you feel the same What can we do? I'm not quite sure what we're supposed to do So I've been writing just for you.

They say your life is going very well They say you sparkle like a different girl But something tells me that you hide When all the world is warm and tired You cry a little in the dark Well so do i I'm not quite sure what you're supposed to say But I can see it's not okay He makes you laugh He brings you out in style He treats you well And makes you up real fine And when he's strong He's strong for you And when you kiss It's something new But did you ever call my name Just by mistake? I'm not quite sure what I'm supposed to do So I'll just write some love to you......

IT'S SUNDAY, I'M IN LOVE....WITH MORRISSEY AND YOU....#42

The release of You Are The Quarry in 2004 made for a triumphant comeback, for MORRISSEY, but if anything the pressure on the 2006 follow-up LP Ringleader Of The Tormentors was even more intense as we waited to see if the quality could be maintained.
The new single was only officially made available some 7 days before the LP, but of course was already widely known thanks to regular airings of the video as well as leaked copies being posted on the Internet.
Lyrically, You Have Killed Me is one of the most unusual singles ever released by Morrissey. They drew on the film Accatone, a work released in 1961 and dealing with pimps, prostitutes and thieves living in a rundown part of Rome, and also namechecked other Italian gay film stars (although I'll confess to not knowing any of them before this single was released).
At this point in time, Morrissey was obsessed with Rome, choosing to both live and record the latest LP there. It's a single that I reckon is one of his classiest throughout his long solo career, (my favorite album) although I know a number of fans were disappointed that it was so radio-friendly, thanks to the influence of Jesse Tobias, the new guitarist in Morrissey's band, and co-writer of this single. (Tobias had previously been associated with a number of mainstream American acts). By now no-one could reasonably expect the great man to be churning out pastiches of The Smiths, and in reality, all he was doing was reflecting the sort of music that many of his ageing fans were listening to elsewhere.
The b-sides were also quite interesting. One was a near unrecognisable cover of an old track by The New York Dolls, a 70s act that Morrissey had been obsessed with as a teenager, while the two original tracks were similar to the single in sounding polished and rather mainstream.
A fabulous collection of songs if you were prepared to accept it was time for Morrissey to start acting his age....indeed, it could be argued that the two original b-sides are as good as anything that was on the critically acclaimed LP many of us rushed out and bought the following week.
Continuing the theme of The Eternal City, the sleeve shot was taken on railtracks in the Pigneto zone of Rome by Italian photographer Fabio Lovino.
Oh and I meant to also say that You remain one of the great and most successful beautiful girl in this planet, Morrissey's single hitting #3 in May 2006, so that must mean you hit #1 and helped MORRISSEY stay in the top 10 it's great what a picture can do that can land you in as a #1 hit so the top will, read #3 MORRISSEY, #2 DANIELLE, #1 DANIELLE.

Happy Sunday. Jay

ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS.....#41

You came into my life Quietly, simply, tenderly...The world stood still I could not say a word Nor a single gestured showed.

The feeling kept in my heart So close your arm in my chest is my arm Every time you close your eyes I fall asleep.So I've loved you in silence Worshipped you from a distance And dreamt of you so often.

I want to say I Love You,So many words But I'm afraid...Afraid that you'll just take it for granted.In silence then, I'll just love you.In silence I'll find...The fulfillment of my dreams.

"Absolute Beginners"

I've nothing much to offer There's nothing much to take I'm an absolute beginner And I'm absolutely sane As long as we're together The rest can go to hell.

I absolutely love you But we're absolute beginners

With eyes completely open But nervous all the same If our love song Could fly over mountains Could laugh at the ocean Just like the films There's no reason To feel all the hard times To lay down the hard lines It's absolutely true Nothing much could happen Nothing we can't shake Oh we're absolute beginners With nothing much at stake As long as you're still smiling There's nothing more I need

I absolutely love you But we're absolute beginners But if my love is your love We're certain to succeed If our love song Could fly over mountains Sail over heartaches Just like the films There's no reason To feel all the hard times To lay down the hard lines It's absolutely true

THERE IS DANIELLE AND THERE IS DANIELLE.........#40

Yep, it's true. Those who love Danielle and worship her for the soul melting, uplifting, angelic Icelandic goddess that she is. Those who hear her once and instantly hate her. And those who just don't get it.
In my experience, Danielle really do seem to be a girl that you either love or hate, which I think is actually a good thing. Surely it's better to inspire a passionate reaction, however negative it may be, than inspire nothing at all. Just think of all those people you come across that are good at what they do, but leave you feeling cold. anyone? (Pun ever so slightly intended).
I think it's fairly obvious which side of the fence I fall on, and seeing Danielle a few moths ago only further cemented her place in my heart. I don't have just one 'favourite' as such, but Danielle inspire more feeling in me than any other girl I have come across in my collection of life. I can't even remember how I came across her, although it would've been some wonderful blogger pointing me in her direction I'm sure. I just wish I could remember who it was, so that I could thank them properly.
The first picture of Danielle, in her albums I came across just blew me away. I had never seen or heard anything that stirred up so much emotion in me. It was inspiring and uplifting and devastating all at once, and I couldn't get enough. I followed it up with her Morrissey, ways and the iconic Smiths, and just when I thought I had this wonderful girl all figured out, she released the stunning Morrissey shirts I'd love to have, and I was once again blown away by her versatility and stunning (largely self-taught!) musicianship of her Morrissey.
While I love every Morrissey song Danielle, loved too (I know I'ts over,Alsatian cousin.) there are the two that are very close to my heart. The first time I saw her I felt something in me. I think it's because she was the first girl I was looking forward to actually seeing. Little did I know as those first words she spoke flowed through my speakers that I was about to hear music of the kind I'd never known before. Too gushy for you? Perhaps it is, but I'd literally heard nothing like this before and was immediately overcome, and I played it again and again, soaking it in and finding something new to marvel at with each listen.
However, as much as I love Morrissey, it's clear that Danielle, has become my favourite Danielle ever. And if for some horrible, awful, hateful reason I was told that I was only allowed to listen or see her for one last time for the rest of my life, I have a very strong feeling that Danielle, would be the one not Morrissey, I'd choose.
Danielle has never, ever failed to make me feel better when things aren't going so well. This girl will calm me down when nothing else will, and this is going to sound really sappy and silly, but when I'm feeling stressed and all worked up I can literally feel my muscles relax and my breathing slow when Danielle, starts playing. Do you think I'm a lunatic? Perhaps I am, but I can't say I care much when caught up in the beauty of Danielle. And as long as this gorgeous, melting, aching girl exists, I think I'll be ok.

Forever, Jay

SHHHHHHHH SHE'S ASLEEP......#39

Quick, nobody's looking. Go on, hurry up, that window's open. In you go.

Ow! Mind your feet, that hurt but I don't mind. OK, we're in. Lets have a quick look around. Ah, here we go, it's like Santa's Grotto in here. If Santa was a Smiths fan that is. Blimey. Two life size cardboard Morrisseys. That's a little scary. What's that? Morrissey's pants? Put em down.
Now, there's got to be something here that we can take from her. Those gits up at the recliner need something on me, something I won't want made public. That way if dares to speak up against em again they'll have us in their pockets.
But it's all good, she's not hiding anything. Whatever you see on Danielle, well that's her. Damn. I thought this was going to be easy money. Oi! Watch where you step, I don't want anything.....broken.....oh you berk!! Twat! I told you to watch out. You're a real clumsy idiot. If you weren't family I'd throw you through that window you stupid fuck. Hold on. What's this? It's a false wall. Hold that torch a little higher. No, not in my face you mug, through that hole in the wall you've made. That's it.
Heh. Well, look at this. Paydirt! I'm back in 1991. It's a shrine!! Look at those posters. Hey, wait a minute, isn't that? It is, it's the original shirts. Ergh, those stains look a bit dodgy. Well, who would have thought it eh? Morrissey. Look at this, she's got posters, annuals, calendars. There's picture discs and everything. I got to admit though, I can remember watching those shirts coming off back in 91. Those shirts were a bit tasty. Look, she's got photos taken with him!!! Even the blokes! Yup, keep that light up, I'm going to take photos of this, we've got her now!! The proof we wanted, Danielle loves Morrissey!!
Still can you blame her? His the British Mexican. Without the advantage of being Irish. Yeh, I know, one of em was a Cockney. And the blokes had dodgy haircuts. Like James Dean both of em. But still. The shirts. And some tidy little singles. You think I'm joking? Here, hold the crowbar, I'll put a couple on. OK, there's Kill Uncle, which will always be the sound of Christmas 1993 for me. Pretty much the last Christmas as a kid before the teenage hormones kicked in properly. But still there were the shirts. I suspect they helped speed up puberty. Listen to those Morrissey bells. Lovely stuff. "he came today, but had to go, to visit you? You'll never know"...that scared my little friend stupid!
And then spring 1984. An absolute classic time for British pop, all shiny and brightly coloured, ABC, Human League, Soft Cell, Depeche mode, The cure, Erasure. And in amongst it all, My Camera Never Lies, with it's opening dreamy 'click click' stuff, I must get a picture of her sleeping.
What? Oh man, look at her sleep, I told you even while she sleeps she can take your heart away. all the girly vocals she has, funny accents and all I love it. You should listen to her. Ah, it's the click click middle bit. Now listen to this, I recorded her voice, I want to dance in a silly jerky fashion now! "My camera has good eyes" I have such a crush on her...what did I say that out loud? shit! Oi, why is the light on your tape recorder red? Turn that off you dozy idiot, now!! Oi come back here!!! I think we got caught! no I got caught!!!! Danielle.......

I'll fix your wall, Jay

SOMEDAY SOMEHOW SOMEONE WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU....#38

"And you my invalid friend, you slam the receiver when you say If I had your limbs for a day, I would steam away."

I'm sad. Not 100% sure why. I think you're sick so that must be it Danielle, Angel. I'm hungry, in tired!. I like you so much. my idea of Danielle is everything and I assure you that you are incredibly amazing. It's legal, don't worry about it..... I just feel like I have nothing to start on, you know. Caught between a rock and a hard place. In a literal rut. Lets hug I'm sure we can make each other feel better. I want to go to England and live off their socialistic government would you like to come with?. And I'll have an accent there on their opposite roads. hawt. My body hurts, like Hulk Hogan style haha. I wish I believed in something that I trusted with my fate. Unattractiveness is my niche. I'm really good at it. And you know what? my fate is you. "I wanna know, can you show me?". We can be best friends, forever. MORRISSEY, our best friend too. Like I know he's in a lot of these, but really, trust the MORRISSEY.

Sickness is just a word, but is says so much, Jay



Come with me my ANGEL,
sunny and bright is the morning,
let me take you to the place,
you have never been before.
through bright moonlit fields,
we will cross,hand in hand we will cross the river of dreams together,roped together like a tether.
Walk through the open spaces of my loving heart, ANGEL.
Let's sit under the shade of the tree of promise,
and pick the fruits of trust and love,
like the innocent hungry dove.
Deep in our eyes lies the fountain of love enduring,
unexplored like the promise of a virgin,
search for your space and rest,
till the rain of love falls down. Let the sparkling drops of passion consume thee, drink till you have had enough, then come and rest in my arms, then drift to sleep on my arms of tenderness.

YOU'RE THE ONE FOR ME FATTY.....#37

Left my girl in Kansas City
Left her crying in the rain
Well, I told her that I made my mind up


I didn't want to see her again
What makes the night so lonely
What makes the night so long
I guess it's just because I'm a man
That's done a good woman wrong


I can't eat, I can't sleep
All I can do is cry for her
All I can do is cry and pain myself
Told her that she was a trifler
Told her that she played around


But I was just a lyin' man
Trying to hide the tracks he'd found
Gonna catch myself a flyer
One that's Kansas City bound
I'm a-go in' lookin' for my baby
Good Lord, I hope she's still around
I can't eat, I can't sleep
All I can do is cry for her
All I can do is cry...................



I love you so much that words can't explain everything I fell this joy that I have for you would beat my best day.
When I am at the weakest point of my life You are there in my head encouraging me to run this race Cause you are there with me all the way.
You are on my mind day and night.The first person I see when I wake up,and the last I see when I go close my eyes When we are apart I picture your gracious smile and gentle hug up against me
I can let my feelings out to you and know for a fact I won't regret it because no matter what is you I want always on my side.
I thank God for sending me someone like you who is precious and loving.
So I can truly say that you are the Angel of My Life!I will always be thankful


Danielle you're pure and lovely, what have you done to me?
When all I can do is long into this blog and blog just about you. Jay

I hate Mondays, Well Tuesday is not Monday, Wednesday is a hump day, Thurday is almost Friday, TGIF! #36

I pretty much grew up listening to Morrissey and The Smiths, David Bowie along with a few others like Depeche Mode, The Cure, New Order,Erasure,R.E.M. NIN etc... Back when I was a young lad (too many years ago!) The Smiths and Morrissey were my absolute favorites Morrissey became my life. I remember smoking with friends and making lists about which albums we would take with us if you could only have a few albums with us on a desserted island or say out into space. Ha, we were high... One of the ones that would always make my list was (Vauxhall and I) by Morrissey. It still holds up really well In me I think. It's an amazing record and "SPEEDWAY" just takes me away the drums in the end OMG! is he's best regular full length release. Some would argue Meat is Murder which had some amazing guitar work by Johnny Marr but Vauxhall and I is kinda were it all came together commercially and artistically. The guitar work on Bigmouth Strikes Again The Smiths (Wow!) and There is a Light that Never Goes Out is probably one of the best pop songs ever written about teenage angst. Queens and Louder than Bombs which was a compilation released later on are probably the two most essential Smiths releases. You can get a pretty good idea of what they did with those two releases. But of course us die hard Smiths/ Morrissey fans have to have them all! So yeah I'd have to take them all with me.. If I can take two things out into space with me to never return all my Smiths/Morrissey cd's and Danielle, What a way to leave. I would not even think it for a second. In fact I hope my name is first in the ballot. Because my list is ready with me.....

Maybe someday I will get that star,Jay
