22/05/2013 -  Buon compleanno, Morrissey
Non si dovrebbe preoccuparsi dell'età. E' come il numero di scarpa - non determina certo come vivi la tua vita! Si può essere meravigliosi o noiosi, a dispetto dell'età. (Morrissey)
Happy Birthday, Morrissey
Age shouldn't affect you- It's just like the size of your shoes - they don't determine how you live your life! You're either marvellous or you're boring, regardless of your age. (Morrissey)

29/04/2013 -  In una lettera aperta, Amanda Palmer si offre di aiutare Morrissey ad usare Kickstarter per il suo nuovo album
Amanda Palmer è attualmente una delle più controverse e schiette sostenitrici del cosiddetto “crowdsourcing”, nell’industria musicale. In questi giorni ha convogliato il proprio entusiasmo in una lettera aperta a Morrissey pubblicata su “Salon”. La Palmer vorrebbe aiutare Morrissey a creare fondi per il suo prossimo album, per il quale, apparentemente, non ha ricevuto attenzione da parte delle case discografiche. Vuole portare Morrissey su Kickstarter e Twitter.
Nella sua lettera aperta, la Palmer sottolinea il proprio amore e ammirazione per Morrissey sin da quando era adolescente. Scrive di aver saputo della sua malattia, della recente cancellazione del tour e soprattutto del fatto che lui non riesca a trovare un’etichetta discografica che faccia uscire il suo prossimo LP.
La Palmer spiega il significato di una nota che ha postato su Twitter, chiedendo quanti dei suoi followers avrebbero dato a Morrissey 5 dollari per la pubblicazione solo digitale del suo disco. Ha calcolato che se 500.000 persone ordinassero il nuovo disco album al prezzo di 5 dollari, Morrissey ricaverebbe due milioni e mezzo di dollari.
Nella lettera spiega anche perché le etichette discografiche sono inutili, cita Buddha e si definisce la sua “devota generatrice di composizione di nuove canzoni”.

Amanda Palmer Offers to Help Morrissey Use Kickstarter for His Next Album in Open Letter
Amanda Palmer is one of the most controversial, outspoken supporters of crowdsourcing in the music industry right now. Today, she's channeled that enthusiasm into an open letter to Morrissey, published by Salon. Palmer wants to help Moz generate funds for his next record, which apparently has no label interest. She wants to get Morrissey on Kickstarter and Twitter.
In the letter, Palmer outlines her love and admiration for Morrissey since her teenage years. She describes learning about his illness, recent tour cancellations, and his not being able to find a label to put out his next LP.
Palmer explains a note she posted on Twitter, inquiring as to how many of her follows would give Morrissey $5 for a digitaly-only release of his record. She calculated that if 500,000 people pre-ordered his album for $5, he'd make $2.5 million.
She explains why record labels are useless, quotes the Buddha, and calls herself his "devoted songwriting-spawn."
