Thank you!

Can't form much of an opinion on it yet, but so far it doesn't seem that remarkable.

Is something amiss? I can't watch it... one error message said it's been removed by the poster?

Try again, he was apparently trying to make it sound better. I picked up a few more words this time. (And I still like it!)

I'm pretty sure the name of the title is:
I'm Throwing my Arms Around Paris...not Wrapping my arms...I could be wrong.

anyway, here goes...

And in the absence of love ???? (couldn't tell what he said)
I have decided I'm throwing my arms around, around Paris because
only stone & steel accept my love
In the absence of your smiling face
I traveled all over the place & I have decided
I'm throwing my arms around, around Paris because...
Nobody wants my love
Nobody wants my love
Yes you've made yourself plain
Yes you've made yourself very plain

ok, that's the best I can do...

Love,
one of the Irregular Regulars.

P.S. Hello to the Irregular Regulars that sat in the beating sun with me all week for Moz...you know who you are!!!

Yeah I know, the lithp made me think of Stan's sister with the braces and headgear on South Park. (No offence FDR! Your video is much, much appreciated!!!!)

I can't wait either!

And uh.... no offence to Moz either, I'm sure you didn't actually sound like you have braces.

I have:

And in the absence of loved ones
I have decided I'm throwing my arms around,
around Paris because
only stone and steel accept my love
In the absence of your smiling face
I traveled all over the place
and I have decided
I'm throwing my arms around,
around Paris because
only stone and steel accept my love
I'm throwing my arms around,
around Paris because
only stone and steel accept my love
[clarinet, Hi Boz!]
I'm throwing my arms around,
around Paris because
Nobody wants my love
Nobody wants my love
Nobody needs my love
Nobody wants my love
Yes you've made yourself plain
oh, Yes you've made yourself very plain

Sounds good... a little skimpy though. I would like more meat on those bones.

oh come on morrissey. nobody wants my love? i think at this point, all he has to do is look around, and see all of us....
it is quite ridiculous. i don't buy it. the song is wonderful, but he needs to stop that unnecessary wallowing in self pity. i understand being unhappy with the world, i relate to it, but being unloved? Morrissey should be the last person in the world complaining about people not wanting his love....

It's Morrissey, for god's sake. What would a Moz song be without a line like that? Answer: "At Last I Am Born." 'Nuff said.

Ditto, baby. No shit. Nobody wants his love? I guess he doesn't come here. We are forming a line as we speak to get a little taste of his love... oh shit. My sangria is talking again.

Nevermind. Moz, you are right. You are a loser and no one wants you. Call me and we'll discuss it privately.

haha!
but really, does he not see the look in our eyes when he touches our hand? is he unaware that some people travel the entire country just to be near him? that we write him letters that makes us silly and awkward? that one simple sentence he directs at US can change our entire lives upside down and be one of the most memorable moments of our life? I almost feel offended when he says that "nobody wants his love"....what are we then!?!? chopped liver?

if he were a loser, he'd be doing backing vocals for Billy Idol, living with his mom and telling people while waiting in the lineup of some nouveau crap band, about his shitty journalist job, and how he once was in this band called the Smiths that never really took off.
