Morrissey - Shame Is The Name

B-side of I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris.

[@HangTheDJ16]

I love that feeling you get sometimes listening to Morrissey when you realise his lyrics are an oddly accurate and poetic summation of something in your life... I get that here and I love it. That's why he means so much to so many. May your light never go out

[@codyslade5558]

I still get that feeling. 12 years on, do you still?

[@mercetubbie]

I will always love him. He´s a fantastic singer.

[@nathanharris7815]

The song was in my head for some reason so I had to listen to it

[@luapssub2415]

I love how Mozzy can release an amazing album and then top himself with a great collection of B sides.

[@nathanharris7815]

Me too 😊

[@DarlinJacq]

I AM excited to wake up next to this ALL OF THE TIME 🤣😂 and I AM not ashamed to be sooo excited about it...

[@AndresLopez-bz7bs]

[@rusholeruffian]

[@glortw]

I don't know why he hasn't uploaded this song. Thank you for posting it!!

[@ed8n]

"This is bloody good, let's use it as a b-side" mused the Moz..

[@echobay]

Love this track. Morrissey and Chrissie's vocals sound great together.

[@peartfaldo]

Farzin LOVES this song and more importantly this MAN;-)

[@ElfPrincessHarley]

i've heard the check-mark is in the male...but the chick is not in the air-mail...

[@BedfordSpur]

Morrisswy is in scintillating form here, a very Moz style B side, and one to cherish!

[@catsuit456]

thank you :) I'll buy me years of refusal next week. But i listened already to the songs. I love it too.

[@Tostig68]

this should have been on the album

[@DarlinJacq]

Thank Yah Thank Yah, Thank YahushahahahahahahA V'ry Muuuch for sending this again because You are sooo cute there, all Scrinchy Nosed and stuff 😊 😘 ☺️ ❤️ 💕 💖 😊

hahaha i love the picture, so cute

[@tenderprey75]

Been a fan of Smiths/Moz for decades, but this is strikingly good.

[@rockwoodpictures]

Great track!

[@Tomdawg89]

Damn Morrissey sounds so damn good these days, same as ever.

[@rusholeruffian]

anyone else think chrissie hynde and moz sound good together? i like the song, really good tune. can't wait to see him in may and that intro sounds like boulevard of broken dreams, or is it just me?

[@TruthThanks]

i like it and i think his vocals sound amazing here

[@dylan618]

this is the equal in every respect to those Smiths songs of old

[@JohnZoidbergg]

Why dont u like it man? It´s GREAT!

[@joseaper]

esta canción me gusta muchísimo. Moz rules.

[@TruthThanks]

i love the sound of that boys voice at the start MAURICET!

[@trynow11725]

This song is great. It has melody and none of the Quarry's albums noise-rock bass lines, enormous drums, and big swaths of guitar distortion.

[@DarlinJacq]

Shame is a choice. I hold no ill will against anyone who has done anything against Me because I realize that I have matured and amplified my life from the interaction and I hold no embarrassment for any thing that I have done. Therefore, I AM holding NO SHAME😁 because that only holds me back ☝️☝️☝️🐐🙏👑😸😺😻👑🐄🌻😁🥰😋🤪👣☕🩰🎶😘🐑🐑🐑👍🕶️YehS My Goatsy, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU VERY MUUUCH... Oh, excuse Me, MASTER GOATSY!!!

[@Allroundfisher]

really nice

[@DarlinJacq]

You YehS, You are so so cute. I mean, look at You YehS, You are so so cute 🥰🥰🥰

[@debiloulou]

Great song! Does anyone know how I can I buy it? It doesn't appear to be available on Itunes or Amazon. Same with the other B song Because of my Poor Education.

[@tefilobraga]

These recent songs (and also the performance last February in Jonathan Ross's show) give some indication that Morrissey seems to have had lessons on how to use his voice more effectively. He has a good voice, no doubt, but he often did not use it to its full potential, especially in the late Smiths days. If he plans to retire soon, it is very well that he wishes do it at the height of his abilities, at least in terms of voice (if not, sadly, in terms of public image, because age took its toll).

[@ancoats186]

love the moz til i die and i love a lot of the new stuff but this track aint pulling up any trees,b side for this is the best bet.

[@bambamdias1948]

Muito bom

[@wellWTF50]

a b-side just means the other side of a record. like side a and side b :) EVERYBODY BUY YEARS OF REFUSAL!!!! its one of my favorite moz albums, next to vaux, quarry, and viva.

[@alxfnch91]

i think when it comes to morrissey, you have to be "in the know" you cant just like morrissey you have to get it.

[@DomWrath]

this is quite good, i was skeptical when i first heard the new album but ive grown attatched to it. times of woe do that to me

[@martywhitevan]

sooooo! true

[@DarlinJacq]

I may not be the best, but I AM The One!!!

[@MickeyFerry]

Johnny Marr on harmonica? It would be just like them to do something like that and tell no-one...LOL. Chrissie great friends with both remember. Mmmm, well I wonder :-P

[@lottyabel]

@m0dsar3us @m0dsar3us Evidently Morrissey is not for you but thats ok. Those of us who can appreciate a musical genius will continue to do so. Morrissey is the most literary singer in British music today. He is clearly well read from his work and has poetical undertones in his music that is beautiful. He is political, passionate, whimsical and light hearted at times in his work, and there is something very British about him that perhaps others do not get.

[@bobbydylanio]

@maddistar His best songs tend to be album tracks of b sides for me. Break Up the family, the incredible Lost, Why dont you find out for yourself, im not sorry, life is a pigsty. I rest my case.

[@DerGelbeHund]

Yes, I agree to maddistar: far better than "... around paris". I'm wondering, that this happens so many times. See the album "swords"- all songs are b-sides, and most of them are quite incredible good. Best Moz-album since "you are the quarry". In my opinion.

[@HangLoosecaca]

haha chill and watch Truffaut's Les 400 coups, you'll understand the reference, Moz c'est genial, en effet

[@meatismurder111]

Why this song isn’t on Spotify

[@catsuit456]

Sorry, but can someone tell me what "B-Side" means? ^^' But I know that I love this song ! =)

[@Stillillgal]

i got "viva hate" tattoo!

[@vilepete]

And who could his teacher possibly be? Alfredo Kraus, Tereza Berganza, Kiri Te Kenawa? I was going to swear Morrissey started to use his voice in its full potential soon after Hand in Glove and until now... And absolutely nothing wrong with his image - public or not - i'm afraid; but that - i agree - is just a matter of opinion...

[@DGSE]

i see you know some french and it s culture good point brit...

[@lottyabel]

@m0dsar3us Morrissey is also self depreciating in his work which is very humbling for a man who is so widely and highly regarded by so many adoring fans. Morrisseys work in anything but shit - Rather it is simply not to your taste.

[@JohnZoidbergg]

bet it is how soon is now :)

[@HangLoosecaca]

Les 400 Coups, bien joue...

[@JohnZoidbergg]

I can´t understand why this is a B side!

[@jonesjarvie]

It's possibly a b-side coz Green Day used the same riff in boulevard of broken dreams! bigger hit!

[@replicas79]

and Gary Numan!!

[@dylan618]

@badamj2000 fifty-one

[@tecnoalex52]

hey sorry i thought you were insulting Moz, you know he's great, bye

[@TruthThanks]

he still could of wrote it, vocals are an instrument, it has tones and keys m8

[@m0dsar3us]

@lottyabel I think you might be thinking of Paul Weller actually...now THAT'S what I call music (volume 1)!

[@DarlinJacq]

JYehS Master, You are much better and MORR real with THAT spelling, Mr MOORE

[@aje2103]

i like it but the third verse hints at what it could have been , rather than retreading the "council estate chav culture" a la Shameless he could have made it a bit more political. the end part is quite nice when it all breaks down to just minimum music and vocals . a decent enough b-side

[@tefilobraga]

I don't agree. Not that I despise people that acquire a decadent or pitiful image because of age (it affects all of us, and it is not one's fault). But it is absolutely true that Morrissey's physical appearance was, until about "November spawned a monster" an essential part of his allure. His "substance", without the compositions of Marr and having lost that image, is considerably less than what I would like it to be...

[@m0dsar3us]

@DocWhat10 Me saying Morrissey and The Smiths are terrible can't be compared to that...sorry.

[@TruthThanks]

what a plonker

[@jjj13031984]

sorry, but Moz has never been intellectually that poor as in this song. I absolutely worship him, that's why I'm truely dissapointed by these dumb lyrics. "Shame is the name" repeat repeat, all right

[@Stillillgal]

first new song i don't like

[@m0dsar3us]

This guy is terrible. The Smiths were horrible...but this is worse. Paul Weller put it best when he said "that bloke needs to not make music".
