Morrissey may hate his guts, but Mike Joyce was definitely looking out for him here.

@davidparker9676 Жыл бұрын

I hope Morrissey lets go of his animosity and gives his fans a reunion with the old band. Morrissey was always a problem for the band, causing drama and extra expenses. Some people never change. I am glad to see Mike Joyce taking the high-road on this awful interviewer's attacks and traps.

Lot of respect for Mike here, the interviewer clearly wanted to throw Morrissey under a bus and Mike resisted it.

Even after the high court and the things that happened between them, morrissey saying I wish the absolute worst for mike Joyce for the rest of his life, he is the good man he is by protecting him and defending him. He knows the interviewer is a ignorant joke! What a waste of time, I don’t think people realize how good Andy and mike were? What a great band❤️

Mike stood up for Morrissey repeatedly, despite their difficult past, seems like a very decent guy. And Morrissey just doesn't want to see the beautiful things in British culture discarded, nor the lives of animals, all the controversy is contrived.

The host is absolutely one of the worst pieces of garbage to be graced by someone classy as Mike Joyce. I hope Mike researches the shows he agrees to appear on in the future. This was an absolute hit-piece on Morrissey and in no way benefited Joyce in any possible way. Mike Joyce did a great job avoiding all of the traps and smears.

This may be the worst interview I have ever witnessed. The blatant attempts to label Morrissey a racist by taking his words out of context are appalling and another case of the media being the media. Even though Mike and Moz may not be on the same team anymore it is admirable that Mike shuts down the petty attempts to cause controversy by this fickle-minded interviewer.

Not only did Mike refuse to follow the Morrissey-is-racist script; he also didn't take the bait about the Smiths vs. Morrissey thing. He said that he's biased toward the Smiths because he was in it, and proceeded to praise Morrissey's role as Smiths frontman.

Plus its actually strange to me that Mike still didn't understand the Flower reference Morrissey used during Smiths Concerts. After some research l understand it to be Morrisseys Passive Aggressive response and Support for the Nuclear anti War moment that was around at the Time.

@@oyemate8647 Perhaps he doesn't care how agenda-driven idiots interpret him, eh. Perhaps he just says what he thinks - and perhaps that's how people should be. Incidentally it's how people WERE, not too long back, before it became so trendy to dogpile people and score points for counting racists - as though for each one you name you get a prize. We're living in thoroughly ridiculous times. Moz knows that and he doesn't give a shit, because he simply doesn't care about the opinions of idiots who can't think with a single grain of nuance.

The most valid point here was when Mr. Joyce said that Moz yearns for an England of 40+ years ago. His music has always been indicative of a lost era, it’s part of their charm. “You’re the bees’ knees”, “stay on my arm, you little charmer”, etc.

Horrific interview... Morrissey was asked about the Chinese subculture of still caging and eating cats & dogs. He stated his views on it, which would have been the same views as any rational Westerner. He also stated a fact about the Cockney accent disappearing. If he was to call the Yemeni or Saudis barbaric for chopping peoples heads off, would that also make him racist. But youre not allowed facts in today's world. Individuals feelings come first.
