Britpop Video of the day-Travis "Why Does It Always Rain On Me"

They wrote this song about me.

Morrissey retiring?

Not according to him.

I would like to stress to members of TTY that the recent quotes on NME.com attributed to me concerning "retirement" and "final concerts" were not made by me, and that the NME are wrong to put my name next to these quotes.

Furthermore, I would like to stress that my knowledge and involvement with "season tickets" and ticket prices for the upcoming shows is zero, and I have nothing at all to do with the way by which tickets are sold or priced. People who think I am involved in that side of the presentation overestimate me - I actually have pitifully short legs - there's only so much I can do.

Thanks to those of you who have bought tickets, and thanks to those even considering coming along. With so many US concerts this year your loyalty has already been over-stretched, so if you decide to pass, that's OK.

Morrissey, 28 August 2007.

Also, Morrissey has made it very clear that their wouldn't be a Smith reunion. I just hope that he keeps to it. Not that I wouldn't love to see the Smiths but Morrissey has stated that he would eat his own testicles before he would reunite the Smiths. I don't want to see him reunite for money or for publicity. It's like The Cure who stated that they would break up in 2000, then made about 3 albums after that. Now they are going to collaborate with Ashlee Simpson??!!?! WTF!? That really makes me not respect them anymore(not that I thought the Cure were ever great).

Morrissey rejects fresh attempt at Smiths reunion

Plus the singer says he won't be touring himself any more

23.Aug.07 4:25pm

Morrissey has revealed he has turned down a near-£40 million offer to tour again with his old band The Smiths.

The star, who also rejected a request to headline the Coachella Festival with the group in 2006, was asked if he would perform 50 shows throughout the world in 2008 and 2009.

The only condition was that he would have to tour with the band's guitarist and co-songwriter Johnny Marr, thus meaning it the reunion not dependent on the participation of bassist Andy Rourke and drummer Mike Joyce.

Joyce famously won a court case against Morrissey and Marr in 2006, when he sued for royalties from his days in the band. The proceedings caused a massive rift which has never been healed.

The Smiths split up in 1987, shortly after they head recorded their fourth studio album 'Strangeways Here We Come'. Speculation that the band would reform has been rife for years.

Morrissey, currently without a record contract, also revealed that his forthcoming residencies in Los Angeles and New York, revealed by NME.COM earlier this week, are the last live shows he is going to perform "for the foreseeable future".

A statement from the star said of the forthcoming dates: "The desire is to go out with some great memories for everyone as who knows what the future will bring."

Watching this just annoys the shit out of me.

Avril Lavigne might be one of the most annoying people ever. What a fake little bitch. I love the dumb looking fake smile and little two step dance she does. Are we 12? Oh wait, you're 23!

Stupid Morrissey

Here's the last leg of Morrissey's tour. I would go to see him in NYC but I may be in labor at that time and I don't want to lose all that money(It costs quite a lot of money to see Morrissey). DAMN YOU MORRISSEY!! WHY COULDN'T YOU COME TO NYC A MONTH EARLIER! YOU ALWAYS CATER TO YOUR MEXICAN FANS!

Britpop video of the day-Babylon Zoo "Spaceman"

I'm pretty sure this is British. I'm not sure if it was actually popular in England in the mid 90's but it was extremely popular when I was in Germany in 1996.

Britpop video of the day-Shed Seven "On Standby"

I'm bringing Britpop back

Avid readers of my blog will remember when I did the britpop video of the day. I've decided to bring this back on my new music blog "TT's Hit Mix. Here's the video for "Ladykiller" by the band Lush. I had this album. It was pretty generic but there was a really good duo with Jarvis Cocker from Pulp.

My baby grooves to early 90's music.

I don't feel the bean that much except when I play cheesy songs from the early 90's.
