The weird and wonderful noises of Morrissey

Pretty funny 2 minute compilation of some of the (mostly) non-word sounds Moz has made in songs. My personal fav? The "ugh!" during the "What She Said"/"Rubber Ring" medley from the Rank live album.

Related: Here's live video of two more new songs...

• "Mama Lay Softly On The Riverbed"
• "Something Is Squeezing My Skull"

Thankfully these two tracks are sounding much more promising than the 4 new songs he played live last year:

• "That's How People Grow Up"
• "All You Need Is Me"
• "I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris"
• "One Day Goodbye Will Be Farewell"

"One Day Goodbye Will Be Farewell" could have his worst lyrics ever:

"The smiling children tell you that you smell / well / just look at me  / a savage beast with nothing to sell / and when i die i want to go to hell / and that's when goodbye should be farewell"

My absolute favourite is the "Uuurgh" from A Rush And A Push..., totally genius!

I don't think the bit in that clip from Cemetry Gates should count, it's clearly "oh no" which are *words*. ;-)

yep, a few of the snippets are actual words, that's why i said "mostly" ;-)
