  • Morrissey's Parisian Rock Love

    4 out of 5 stars
    Rtukeken-TalDecember 9, 2025United States🇺🇸

    “Embracing Paris with open arms, as only stone and steel reciprocate my affection.” Is there a need for more words? Years Of Refusal witnesses Morrissey's return to clarify matters once more, this time paying homage to Paris with what might be one of the most enchanting city love songs I've encountered. Paris, take a bow! Overall, Years Of Refusal leans into a more rock ‘n’ roll vibe, evoking memories of “Your Arsenal” from 1992. If you're after Morrissey's indie pop side, look to “Ringleader” or his earlier work. Here, the band is clearly having a blast, showcasing their live energy. An attitude I can certainly appreciate. All You Need Is Me stands out as a prime example – and it's already featured on the 2008 Greatest Hits compilation. Now, where's the tacky badge? Tsk tsk! But this is Morrissey in 2009. Bold, brash, and utterly self-confident. How he continues to get away with it is almost beyond comprehension. But thank you! The question remains, for how long? Morrissey himself hints that “One Day Goodbye Will Be Farewell”. Well, let's not rush to any conclusions.

  • Morrissey's Parisian Rock Tribute

    4 out of 5 stars
    Lteqiqon-VizAugust 21, 2025United States🇺🇸

    “I’m Enveloping Paris in My Arms because only stone and steel reciprocate my affection.” Is there a need for more words? Years Of Refusal showcases Morrissey returning to clarify his stance once more, this time honoring Paris with what might be one of the most stunning city tribute songs I'm familiar with. Paris, accept this applause! Overall, however, Years Of Refusal leans into a more rock ‘n’ roll driven sound, evoking memories of “Your Arsenal” from 1992. If you're after indie pop flavored Morrissey, look towards “Ringleader” or his earlier works. This is a band clearly enjoying themselves, eager to showcase their live energy. An attitude I can appreciate. All You Need Is Me serves as a prime illustration – and one already featured on the Greatest Hits collection from 2008. Now we just need that tacky pin – tut tut!! But this is Morrissey 2009. Bold, as fiery as ever, and utterly self-confident. How he continues to pull it off is nearly unfathomable. But thank you! The question remains, for how long? Morrissey himself hints that “One Day Goodbye Will Be Farewell”. Well, let's not rush to any judgments.
