Do you really love Morrissey?

[MuteWitness616]

People always say they love Morrissey....
Do you really love Morrissey?
Do you actually have feelings for him and why?

[miss_bunbury]

I wouldn't say I actually love him. But I have actual real love for the songs he sings.

[PUNKturedBIKE]

I quite like to bone him, does that count?

[MuteWitness616]

I quite like to bone him, does that count?

bone him with a bone bone?

[PUNKturedBIKE]

Yes, but a vegan one.

[EPbabe]

I love him as much as I can love someone I actually don't know. :p For what he is. Edit: And I love his music too. Plus he's bloody gorgeous. :D

[MuteWitness616]

Yes, but a vegan one.

alright good. cause I don't think he'd let you bone him with a chicken bone

[SparkleBoy]

I love his music...his lyrics..., but do I love him? No. I love my friends, family, my wife, and my son. It's always great to admire and look up to an icon, but to LOVE someone you will never know, and more than likely never even hold a conversation with, is a bit bizarre for me to wrap my arms around (Paris).

it's possible to have feelings for a person you will never meet.

[mozzia]

The question of 'love' is a difficult one. :o
Though, I have great admiration for him, and ''the songs that saved your life''....
And i fancy the pants off him :D

[MuteWitness616]

yalll be pervertzzzz

[Worm]

I love the music. Stops there. As Flaubert said, "One must not touch one's idols. The gilt always comes off on one's fingers". On this point Morrissey would no doubt agree, having once as an adolescent taken great pains to be in the same room as Patti Smith only to witness her farting with reckless abandon.

I doubt Morrissey would fart if I was in a room with him

[MelissaY1]

No, I enjoy his music, I think he's hot, I'm glad he takes a stand for animal rights, but other than that I am not in LOVE with Mr. Moz....

[Morrissey the 23rd]

Nobody has influenced me or impacted my life more than Morrissey. My love for him is very real and I care for him deeply.

Lol, reading fart-related things is highly dangerous for my comp, when I have coffee in my mouth! :D

[lostsoul2]

his music and lyrics ....yes

[mywar]

not in a romantic or sexual way... but other than that, i definitely love him. he's given me so much and helped me through so many seemingly unbearable situations in life, just through his music and his words, and in some ways he has given me more than a lot of people i, obviously unlike moz, actually know personally... even if that's not meant to belittle my relationships to those people.

[EPbabe]

Nobody has influenced me or impacted my life more than Morrissey. My love for him is very real and I care for him deeply.

I don't think I would go that far. I wouldn't say he's influenced my life. Has he made it richer and happier? He definitely has. And thanks to him, I've "met" some extremely nice and interesting people, even though only virtually. Do I care for him? Of course. But I couldn't mention one thing I've changed or would change about my life because of him. (Okay, if he asked my hand, I would seriously consider the offer.... :o)

So tell us how YOU feel about him. :)

ok i could say a bit more but it would be too much for one post..so i decited to keep mine hidden:rolleyes:;)
i don't want to be boring..:D

[MuteWitness616]

So tell us how YOU feel about him. :)

Well I love him to the point, that i really have feelings for him.
I love him as I love my brother.
Morrissey is my hero. I know I really do love him. I would be willing to be there for him whenever he'd need me. But that's just crazy talkkk

[prisoner77]

J have never felt such affiliation with anyone. Love is for other things, like music.

No, it's not crazy talk. Feelings are not to be discussed. Feelings are real as far as you consider them to be real. :)

[MuteWitness616]

No, it's not crazy talk. Feelings are not to be discussed. Feelings are real as far as you consider them to be real. :)

Only if you say so

[*EqualOpportunityHater*]

One word YES!!

[MuteWitness616]

One word YES!!

You don't love him, you love Hillary

[resolveme]

this is a difficult one. for me, morrissey's music is something which touches the deepest recesses of my soul. it expresses those things which i cannot. it makes me wail with saddness and scream with joy. it's true life but also my wildest dreams all rolled into one. and i think because of that, the man who created such wonderful, amazing, mind-blowingly beautiful music holds a sacred place in my heart. whether that's love i don't know, but it might be the nearest thing to it.

[shirleytemple]

I do have feelings for him. It's those kind of desperate feelings where I would just want to meet him, where I think of him all the time, and where I would want him to notice me! You know, like a crush. I admire the way he thinks so differently! I love people like that, who dont conform. anddd I also think he's so very handsome. so yes, I do love Morrissey.

I love him. It's the greatest love I've known, and I don't think love for any "real" person could even compare. When I say real I mean reachable, here, at hand. Nothing could even come close, so why settling for less?
Once you've known this much love you can't settle for less.

[dicartwright]

See, I'm saved! I don't really want it to be mutual! I'd be disappointed if he did love me back because I don't think he could love me. Or should, for that matter. I couldn't love a person who loved me because we'd disagree on that point.
I want him to be with Johnny :tears:

I get you, but I'm not sure that's a very obvious feeling. Why would you depreciate yourself so much? Don't you feel worthy of loving? Or is it only his loving you're not worthy of? Sorry for putting these questions, you don't have to answer them if you don't want to, they just popped into my mind.

I just want him to be happy, with whoever it is. (If it is with me, I really don't mind. ;))

Don't worry, since I stopped having a problem talking about it I've felt relieved. I feel it's my right to love and I love Morrissey. Nobody is to say it's not love just because I don't know the man.
But being loved? I wouldn't believe it or understand it.
People who've met me have been curious and in a couple of cases, obsessed, but those people are always people I wouldn't pay any attention to.
All I need is Morrissey, dogs, rain, books, my mum. Pathetic! :D

[EPbabe]

Understood and agreed to -even that 'sexual part' (ok, just a little) ;)

"I love you ... it's murder :gun: and pointless" :sweet: but I do...

[Not Right in the Head]

Absolutely not. The notion is quite nonsensical, actually. He's someone that I've never met, probably never will meet, and I certainly won't have the opportunity even to befriend, let alone be close enough friends to consider him someone whom I love. How can anyone love something, or someone, in circumstances like that?

"Well, it's not like any other love, this one is different..." - True, it's certainly not like loving your spouse or children or family.

"Well, it's not like any other love, this one is different..." - True, it's certainly not like loving your spouse or children or family.

It's no more than having a favorite singer, author, actor, etc.; that's all. As Squeeze said, "Is that love?"

[bored]

I do not believe it is possible to love someone you have never met. It's even harder to love someone you have ;)

[XxX0▲0XxX]

YES!! I love, admire, and repsect him more than anyone in the world. He is GOD to me. He is absolutely, positively, 110% +++++ PERFECT in my eyes!! He can do no wrong!

[Kewpie]

I do not believe it is possible to love someone you have never met. It's even harder to love someone you have ;)


It's a lot easier to love someone you've never met because you don't have to face the reality. :D

[sol]

People always say they love Morrissey....
Do you really love Morrissey?
Do you actually have feelings for him and why?

I love he very much, More than the love in the real world. I worries me that he does not feel well, but he knows that I always will be there.:o

[PregnantForTheLastTime]

I don't know. I don't think I actually know him. Maybe I do know him. Maybe the words are all true and that is who he is. And maybe he is entirely different than his words would lead you to believe. The mystery is fun to contemplate.

I would like to meet him. I don't think I'd be starstruck and tongue tied, I'm not like that. He could be really wonderful, or he could be a massive asshole. But only after finding out for myself would I be able to say how I actually felt about Morrissey the guy, rather than Morrissey the body of lyrics.

So, do I love him? No, certainly not. I'm very fond of the idea of him, though.

[nothingwrongwithme]

Mmm..Good question, I love my kids, husband, family and my friends with a passion, and I include Morrissey in that elite list, it just sounds bizarre to say that out loud but that is how it is. They all play such an important part in my life 24/7 and no-one or anything else have come close to getting into the heart of me. Ever.

[Abrahan]

yeah, he's alright.

[CrystalGeezer]

Are we in the next world yet?

[Chartres]

[CeciDeMorrissey]

This is probably the most interesting thread in months and I've got to read some really beautiful statements, especially resolveme's...

It's difficult to make the difference because he inspires so many feelings in me. But I can definitively say that ever since he came into my life, he changed it totally and positively... I cannot live a single day without listening to his music and not a single day passes by without thinking of him, imagining the day he comes back to a show in Santiago and wondering somethimes where he is or what a man like him could be doing right now, like in playful way.

He's definitively a huge crush, my biggest one... He's the most attractive man on Earth to me.

But I think I'd feel nothing of the above if he hadn't the marvelous velvety voice he has or if he wasn't a master of lyrics and poetry... I usually wonder how does he come up with such wonderful and true lines... I feel identified with his feelings and his wiew of life and this world... I would love to become his friend and, puting aside the desire for physical contact, what I would love the most it would be having a honest and sincere heartfelt conversation with him at the most unexpected time or place... Spend a whole evening talking with him, that would be heaven... Yes... After all this, I love him... Definitively...

[Worm]

It's a battlefield. Duh! :D

If love is a battlefield, and that battlefield is Earth, and L. Ron Hubbard wrote "Battlefield Earth", then Morrissey's favorite sexual fantasy involves John Travolta with dreadlocks.

[Scarlet Ibis]

I thought I loved him because of the deep impact he's had on my life and the formation of my personality... and because when I was a teenager trying to cope with abuse and abandonment, his music was there for me.

I wasn't certain that I loved him until I (loosely) followed his last tour and had several chances to interact with him personally (without actually getting to speak with him). It's amazing how quickly he established a relationship with me. I realize he does this with all the front row types, not just me... but it's still really impressive. His large personality could be felt even at this distance. He even managed to be an ass to me at one point, then he felt bad about it and made it up to me later on.

When it was all over and I was back home, I realized that my love for him is very real. Unconditional, even. His influence on my life has been enormous. I just care for him like he's family.

Even as I type this I have a warm feeling in my heart.

[Worm]

Moz and Travolta :o:rolleyes::D hmmmhmmm!

That's the Morrissey I love :)

On my drive, I realized though I love him, I'm not really liking him right now with his gig fiasco, other drama and diva-like behavior...I dunno, I feel bad for some people and how he's treating things, or not... older Moz is a different person. Anyway, I will forgive him as I always do.

It is possible to love someone and not like them sometimes.

[Worm]

Here's the proof:

Love that photo. His left hand is doing the "Larry Craig Handshake".

[Claudia2006]

Yes.... not like I love my husband or family or other people I actually know in life, but yes I do love Morrissey for real, and very much so. :o

[MadameChaos]

As much as it's possible to love someone I have never met and don't know at all.

[imogen11]

... older Moz is a different person.

Bingo.

[Voodoo Doll]

I do for sure. You don't have to wait until you get the love in return to love someone in the first place. If you know what I mean. Would I miss him if he was gone - yes, would I feel bereft and heartbroken, yes. I guess that's love. And I do have real live loved ones in my life ....

[Not Right in the Head]

Love that photo. His left hand is doing the "Larry Craig Handshake".

He's got a pretty wide stance, too, now that you mention it...

[mozzette]

I can't say I 'love' him as I don't 'know' him in 'real life'. But I feel very deeply for him as he says what I can't etc.

[westendgirl]

I can't say I 'love' him as I don't 'know' him in 'real life'. But I feel very deeply for him as he says what I can't etc.

Oh! you beat me to it. :) These are my thoughts exactly to the 'T'.
This is the reality of it all.

But what I do know of him now, I do really like, and can really say I do love...as for the rest, I'll have to get back to you. ;)

That's not a good starter. I saw when I was 12 or 13 and I thought: "Yikes, that is so gaaaay!" So I ran away and didn't look back until last year... :o

[vivabob]

i have known him longer than anyone apart from my family - i have always had him on my mind - i have traveled round the world to be with him - and i follow where he goes ... that must be love

It's a lot easier to love someone you've never met because you don't have to face the reality. :D

A good point but I'll just play it safe and not love strangers :)

[sloanesquarehairltd]

Maybe i'm young and naive but i really do feel i've grown to love him . I know there are genuine feelings there. ObviouslyI don't know him personally but i don't feel any more love for my family , friends . Morrissey is a pretty big part of my life at the moment. I'm sure there is mutual opinion.

I love morrissey for his poetry and artistic freedom. As already said, in his songs he says so many things I can't :) also I find him (his music) comforting :almost like an old friend, that you know you can always count on when you need.:o

and did he get a chance to listen to them (after you came to your senses? :p:rolleyes:;))

We listened to them together. :) I can tell exactly how, where and when it happened, but I won't bore you with the details. Then things got out of control.... :o

[dzhemini]

I do have very strong feelings for him. But I've never been "in love" with "real" people (don't know if I'm even able to...), so I can’t compare.
Are these feeling "real"? I don't know, and I don't care.:rolleyes: :)

[WorkOfArt]

Yes, I do.

"Well, it's not like any other love, this one is different..."

Exactly. Moz really has influenced me and impacted my life... but those things are way too personal to discuss here. Or anywhere, with anyone.
Thank you, Morrissey!

Call me a weirdo if you wish http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/happy/happy0035.gif, but 4 years ago a certain song (by a band that means a lot to me) made me finally give my notice to quit my job. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life!!

[the judge]

Yes, I love him.

[Anaesthesine]

No and Yes

No: I feel great affection, infinite respect, gratitude and, yes, lust for The Man, but love, real love, is an entirely different thing.

Yes: As far as artistic love goes, which is one of the most important and sacred kinds of love there is to me. I love him the way I love Oscar Wilde, or Jock Soto, or Charlotte Bronte, or Edward Gorey, or Jean Tinguely, or W. G. Sebald, or David Lynch, or any number of glorious eccentrics who have changed and enhanced the way I see the world.

Morrissey is different, however, because he gave me back something that I had lost. He is also seductive, and his physical presence is pleasurable in an almost overwealming way (although seeing Jock Soto dance over the years has been one of life's great joys).

Morrissey's voice is essential to me, and I use him as a touchstone, but that is as far as it goes (which is far enough for me).

:D :guitar: :horny: :tears: :cool: ;)

[Scarlet Ibis]

A lot of people are responding that they aren't "in love" with Morrissey. That wasn't the question, was it? I mean, no... I'm not "in love" with him, but I do love him.

There are so many ways one can love another that it shocks me that more of the responses here aren't affirmative.

I love people based on what they mean to me and what kind of impact they've had on my life. I have family members who are horrible people and I am supposed to love them anyway simply because we are related. Well, I don't. It's considered silly to love a pop star, but what if the pop star has given you reason to love him time and time again?

[stressford_poet]

i'd say that as love has no meaningful definition, it's entirely subjective, if you say you love someone, then to some degree you must.

i love morrissey.

[MuteWitness616]

Yes, I love him.

nice!

[MuteWitness616]

that's not what I heard ;) :D

lies lies lies :D

[IDon'tOweYouAnything23]

Not like I do a family member, but definitley as far as loving someone I don't know can go! His muisic reached out to me when I needed it most and for that i'll be eternally grateful :)

[sol]

Certainly , even question offends.
It is so certain as that the smiths never regroup again .

[Renia]

Nope! I just pretend too for all the super sweet benefits it brings!

okay, I'll stop being a smart aleck, yes, I do love Morrissey. It's that simple. He makes me happy, and I love him for it. I'm sure my dad, my friends, and everyone I talk to can certaintly attest to how much I love him. Haha.

[iamkali62]

I don't know him personally so I really can't make that statement. The music is what I love and Morrissey has said he *IS* the music, so ...yeah, I guess I do love him. :confused:

Finally we all love his songs . :D

[mauve21]

Of course I do. And have for a very long time...

[Jealous Of Youth]

some of the posts by people in this thread saying they actually love Morrissey (like, genuinely believe they love him) really do concern me. i'm not trying to insult people, but... seriously. it's not normal. you can't possibly love him. admire and respect him, love the music, yes. but to actually love a man you have never met (and most likely never will) is terribly sad. i'm not even going to mock them, because i genuinely do feel sadness for them.

"Try living in the real world,
Instead of a shell..."

[withmyheadonthebar]

No, I don't. But I do love his songs.

[maynardmorrissey]

Well, I love his music, his lyrics, his stage appearances. I don't love him the way you love your partner/girlfriend just because I don't know him personally, but I see him as a role model who has a big influence onto me.

[lovemorrissey]

I completely and totally adore him! I worship the ground he walks on to the extent that id lie on the pavement and his feet and kiss every inch

[moz'art girl]

Please, don't forget to throw petals of roses before he arrives!:guitar:

[someofusisturningnasty]

the words to "Lighten Up, Morrissey" sum it all up for me...! I was speechless with delight when I heard that song. Morrissey's on a pedastal that nobody else will be able to reach. He's done more for me than anyone else. I feel like I can't repay him enough with my adoration and I think this is why he ignites such love and passion in people. Because this man who you've never met cares about you in such an intense way. How many lives have his words saved? And how can you possibly repay that. Ahhhhhh Morrissey.

So in an entirely selfish way, yes, I do love him.

[iamkali62]

I've loved him since 1984 and my love and admiration for him hasn't gone away yet nor are they likely to! He's so endearing to me. He's prompted me to truly be aware of the finer things in life (not wealth) poets, authors, MUSIC, I could go on and on. He *spoke* to me in 1984 and it has not stopped yet. I think, like most of us here, he speaks to us in a way others will never be able to understand. And I love him for it. And he could be a total bastard in his private life, but he's only human.

[bikubesong]

what is love? Baby, don't hurt me, don't hurt me no more:( Morrissey please come home to me

To ME, he IS HIS MUSIC. Of COURSE they are many different facets to him we will never know. He's a human being BUT he's not like *anybody else*. Maybe he'd be a total prick to me if I ever was fortunate enough to meet him. NO, I don't personally KNOW HIM, but what I DO know is that he saved me from a life of normality.

[vicarinatutugal]

Oh you are so serious. If you feel sad you've perhaps not realised that there
are all different types of love besides being in love with and being with
someone in real time. There is nothing wrong with admiration and being positively influenced by someone. Maybe you are just too young to understand......

Mozzy is #2 in EOH's heart :)

[EPbabe]

Yes, I love him as much as you can love someone you don't actually know. And I'm grateful to him for sharing his talent and making my life happier with his music. :) I don't usually share his views though.
Oh and I almost forgot: he's a sexy beast....:horny:

[Ready With Ready-Wit]

Con todo mi corazon.

[Scarlet Ibis]

I do love him. He doesn't know it and he didn't mean to, but he's made my life better than it would have been without him. Plus, he wrote the lyrics that touched my heart more than any other poetry.

I know he's a sharp person with lots of issues, but I love him anyway.

In fact, I love a very few people in this world and I count him as one of them.

[Hellie]

Of course I do. And have for a very long time...

Hey, leave Bono out of this! :mad::D

Anyway, well, yeah. In the way I love hugs, kittens, warm blankets and sleeping in a lovely warm blanket cocoon.
My omglove hierarchy is something like:

Sleeping In A Lovely Warm Blanket Cocoon > Kittens > Morrissey > Warm Blankets > Hugs

[Jealous Of Youth]

Of course he's not like anybody else; everyone's unique etc etc etc. But you can't justify an irrational love for someone just because they're "unique".

And, if you think about it objectively, did he really "save you from a life of normality"...? I mean, they're just songs at the end of the day (albeit very good ones).
Anyway, what's wrong with being normal? It's better than being abnormal.

[Jealous Of Youth]

Maybe you are just too young to understand......

That's highly offensive, but i'll overlook it. just because someone is younger than you doesn't mean you know more or understand more. You old bat.:)

[Carnation]

I'm in love with his music and his lyrics.

[mauve21]

That's highly offensive, but i'll overlook it. just because someone is younger than you doesn't mean you know more or understand more. You old bat.:)
There there, I'm particularly sorry now.....
Far be it for me to understand any less or more
than someone of my age would normally
understand......
Look really I was just talking relatively speaking that one's experience
of love and/or romantic type situations is different at different
ages, and appreciations, and fluctuations, and how little or large in seriousness
you take things....
All I wanted to say, and not at all unkindly, is that when you are younger
perhaps you don't take things quite as seriously because you really do have
your whole life ahead of you.....
please don't be offended. I'm off to the belfry where all good bats belong!:guitar:

That's funny, when I was younger I took many things (well, mostly myself) more seriously. It's only now, in the midst of life, that I don't feel absurd driving eight hours to stand in line, jump around like an idiot and fight over a man's shirt. I would never have done this 10 years ago.

I love Morrissey for making a fool out of me. :D

[my_light_never_goes_out]

Ever since I saw him live I'd have to say that I fell in love with the man. Not only does he know how to carry himself on stage, but he also looks hella smoking for being 47!!!! I'd marry that man if I could. Srsly

he was my first crush when i was fourteen/fifteen my room was covered in his pictures and i would scribble his name in my school it was strange,i felt like a boyzone fan.

[oye terence]

he is my everything.
well,no,but he is very important,he has got me through many a thing in my life,he is there through thick and thin,something i really cant say about anything or anyone else.

i have hugged him many a time,shaked his hand numerous times and i can say that everytime i am as giddy as i could ever be.

That's right. I love Morrissey. Truly. Is it the same love I feel for my husband or daughter? No. It's for entirely different reasons. There are WAY more kinds of love than just romantic love and the love of friends and family. Morrissey has done so much for me that I'd be an asshole if I didn't love him. No, he didn't mean to help me, but he did. Art is important. Morrissey's art reaches out to people. Out of his brain and heart comes this very important thing. I love him for it.

I feel sorry for YOU for not understanding that. Branch out a little.

[Arsenal]

Love is simply a word people overuse to explain the feeling created by a chemical reaction in the brain. I do not 'love', morrissey or anyone else. I enjoy his messages, his writings and his songs. That is all.

It's more common sense. People are far too easily controlled by emotions. I simply have no such disabilities. I recognize that 'love', is not a concrete term, and one that is drastically overused to describe anything from a preference in ice cream flavour to a sports team. It has no real concrete meaning and so I refuse to use it to describe my feelings towards another person. I simply enjoy Morrissey's writings and songs a great deal, and that is that.

Lame semantics.

[Arsenal]

Lame semantics.

I don't think so at all. The word is highly overused, meaning anything from a feeling of support for a local (or international) sports team, to preference for mustard, ice cream, car manufacturer, or even preference for items in one's house. I fail to see the meaning of the word due to how society (over)uses it. When one says "I love you", it is supposed to be "special", yet the word is used to describe a car, a coffee brand, a watch, a cat, a dog, a carpet, or a a feeling you get from skiing, driving, walking ("I love my daily walks!"), etc.

I cannot determine the meaning of the word when it's basically used to describe everything under the sun. Therefore, I do not 'love', Morrissey, I simply enjoy his artwork. I don't see how that is 'lame', it makes perfect sense to me.

D:

There are lots of words that have several different meanings. Why would you choose to define your own feelings of love by the meanings that others give it? Real love is a very sacred thing. You don't have that feeling inside of you? Did you ever?

When I say that I love lima beans it's a very different thing from when I say I love Morrissey or my mom or even my cat. You don't feel that difference?

That makes me feel sad inside.

[Arsenal]

D:

That is exactly my point. There are hundreds, if not thousands of meanings for the word. It is used to describe anything from tooth paste brand to a feeling you may get while jogging. How can I define it when it has thousands of usages, each different? That is far too broad for me.

[QUOTE=Scarlet Ibis;908774]Real love is a very sacred thing. You don't have that feeling inside of you? Did you ever?

And what exactly is 'real love'? Do you really 'love' that brand of ice cream yo always eat? Do you really 'love' your bed? Do you really 'love' that park bench that gives you a great view? Again, the word is used for everything and anything, so how exactly are we to tell which of these situations are 'true?'

And no, I do not to the best of my knowledge have 'that feeling inside me'. The word is simply a formality used for thousands of different descriptions in our society and a formality (and a over-used one at that) is all it is to me.

When I say that I love lima beans it's a very different thing from when I say I love Morrissey or my mom or even my cat. You don't feel that difference?

No, I don't see a difference, and again, that is exactly my point. You love lima beans, your mom and Morrissey. How can we possibly compare these three things? We cannot. Which only makes the usage of the word all the more confusing.

That makes me feel sad inside.

Looking at a situation objectively instead of with only blind emotion saddens you? I'm sorry to hear that.
