Welcome!

Sometimes it just takes a simple urgency in your mind, a small idea, a couple of words put together, and you're well away from the world you usually are part of.

This site is dedicated to those rare seconds in your life when you're feeling delighted with an idea and with words that express that special urgency in your mind. Here you can find black and white images, raw atmospheres, undistinct pictures and - I hope - some relief to your little intellectual needs.

Your contribution is definitely required. We all are social animals. Don't miss the opportunity to reveal your true richness. And yes, it all relies on words. Morrissey's words.

If you find this site useful or just charming please consider to...
Read the conditions. Thank you.

Benvenuti!

A volte basta una semplice urgenza della mente, una piccola idea, un paio di parole messe assieme e ci si trova ben lontani dal mondo di cui si è abitualmente parte.

Questo sito è dedicato a quei pochi secondi nella vita in cui ci si sente deliziati da un'idea e dalle parole che esprimono quella speciale urgenza della mente. Qui troverete immagini in bianco e nero, crude atmosfere, figure indistinte e, spero, un po' di sollievo ai vostri piccoli bisogni intellettuali.

Il vostro contributo è decisamente il benvenuto. Dopotutto siamo animali sociali. Non perdete l'occasione di rivelare la vostra vera ricchezza. E sì, tutto si basa sulle parole. Le parole di Morrissey.

16/6/2009 - The Smiths Singles Box in uscita in UK il prossimo 29 giugno
E' una scatola di cartone contenente i primi 10 singoli degli Smiths usciti in UK con le copertine originali e con le track-list originali dei dischi 12", tranne il primo singolo "Hand In Glove" che appare nella sua super-rara versione con copertina al negativo. Due singoli sono esclusivi per questo box set: la versione rara di "This Charming Man" mixata da François Kevorkian chiamata "New York Mix" e la versione 12" importata dalla Germania di "Barbarism Begins At Home" del 1985. Il box è completato da un poster che raffigura le immagini dei singoli. Tutti i singoli utilizzano tracce audio rimasterizzate da Frank Arkwright supervisionate da Johnny Marr e includono molti brani non presenti negli album, come l'introvabile B-side dal vivo alla BBC registrata all'Apollo di Oxford nel 1985. Un oggetto da avere assolutamente e limitato a sole 10.000 copie!

The box is completed with a poster featuring the single artworks.

2/6/2009 - "Swords": la nuova raccolta di b-sides in uscita il prossimo ottobre
E' lo stesso Morrissey ad annunciarlo dal suo sito ufficiale MySpace: "[...]Sono entusiasta della pubblicazione in ottobre di "Swords", una raccolta di 18 brani b-sides dei singoli fuoriusciti dagli ultimi tre album. Sarà una pubblicazione della Polydor.
Grazie a tutti coloro che hanno acquistato 'Years of Refusal'. L'album era il più venduto in UK nella settimana di pubblicazione, ma, come è accaduto con 'You Are The Quarry' e con 'Your Arsenal', è stato scacciato dal primo posto all'ultimo momento. Ne abbiamo pianto.[...]"

"Swords": a new b-sides compilation set to be released October 2009
It's Morrissey himself from MySpace announcing his next record: "[...]I am excited about the October release of Swords, which is an 18-track compilation of b-sides of singles from the last three albums. This will be a Polydor release.
Thanks to everyone who bought 'Years of Refusal'. We were the number one seller in the UK for the week of release, but, as with 'You Are The Quarry' and 'Your Arsenal', we were booted off the number one spot on the last hour of the final day. We cried.[...]"
