Italy is mine

Today ... Why? ... Because By coincidence, or maybe not, this post by Morrissey fits perfectly and it's perfectly on time. Vera da Pozzo Paris, 11th June 2026 Post and photo by me.

You do know when I need good news most. The 12 inch is on its way to the Fnac shop, and the announcement of a newer album which will be recorded in January is great newsn Yes, I know that you are 116 years old: you told me in Catania and you made me laugh. I do not know why do people feel the urge to speculate about people and situations they absolutely do not know, but I think that "bitchcraft" is a brilliant trouvaille and it fits to the fester crashing bores I ignore at wo

Why?... ... Because! Happy Birthday to YOU Vera da Pozzo Paris, 22nd May A. D. MMXXVI Article, artwork and photographs by me, as always. Drawing made on Morrissey's birthday, in the quiet and lovely courtyard of the Irish Cultural Centre, after an interesting literary conversation with Kevin Barry - see photos below. The security guy let me stay in the courtyard after the closing time. I love this place so much and I visit here as often as I can that I am somehow considered a

Release update on Morrissey Central: three more weeks for the release of Notre-Dame Deluxe 12" vinyl, i. e., few days before the first concert of the new European tour which will take place in Lillestrøm, near Oslo. My first time in Norway: I have never been so far in the North of the Emisphere in which I was born and where I live. As usual, my purchase will be delivered at the Fnac shop. Let's stretch out and wait... Good night! Vera da Pozzo Paris, 2nd May 2026 P. S. Joke a

Inspired by the 1964 play Eh?, written by Henry Livings, the film was produced four years later. Directed by Peter Hall and starring David Warner and Cilla Black, Work is a four-letter Word is not available on DVD but it can be watched on YouTube and it will be a nice divertissement tonight. The original film's title song by Cilla Black (a singer I do like, whom I discovered through The Beatles before knowing that Morrissey was a fan of her) and the "infamous" cover by The Sm

A nice post from Morrissey. La naissance du jour, an unusual novel written by Colette in 1927, partially based on her mother's letters, and published in 1928. The original French title reminds me of the epilogue of André Gide's Les nourritures terrestres (1897), one of my favourite books by one of my favourite writers: Le jour naît. Descends dans la plaine. Regarde de plus près chaque chose. Lyncéus, viens ! approche-toi. Voici le jour et nous y croyons. (André Gide, Les nour

The poet's flower: Rosa canina, or dog rose or eglantine. Photo taken by me today, around noon, in my favourite Parisian park. As it was a bit windy, I put my hand on the branch in order to prevent the beautiful dog rose to oscillate too much while I was taking this picture. A sprig of rosa canina was one of the gifts rewarding poets for their literary excellence during the Middle Age, at the Academy of Floral Games in France. To YOU. See You in two months!

More concerts to enjoy, more Countries and cities to discover, from the North to the South next Summer, plus Paris and Brussels in December. See you in two months, Fantastic Bird!

My school holidays start with good news... Morrissey in Europe again: many dates this Summer, and three more concerts later in the year: Paris (la Seine musicale) on 3rd December, Netherlands and Belgium at the ending of 2026. It's time to check my agenda. Below, the new European poster and my screenshot of today's post on Morrissey Central. "Hello Hell" was written on the drumkit in 2023. Oh, the irony!

So, as I guessed, last Saturday, the post Italia on Morrissey Central has been republished this Monday , and we have had another post from Morrissey on the same day, Italy is You and Me , with a fan video by George Rae of You're right, It's Time , the opening track of Morrissey's new album Make-up is a Lie , starring Pier Paolo Pasolini. Below, the stunningly beautiful picture of Morrissey taken during his concert in my Sicily, at Villa Bellini in Catania, on 31st July. I wi

I cannot explain how , but I knew that today I would have found on Morrissey Central some news about the next tour... I was right, and absolutely not disappointed at all. Morrissey will be back to Italy during school holidays, like last year, which makes things much easier. And how I love to see my Country's name always written in Italian on Morrissey's posts. See you in nearby places, Silver Boy! Vera da Pozzo Paris, 11th April 2026 Below: screenshots of the announcement

There are not news yet of the new European tour, but we have news about new releases tomorrow and on Morrissey's birthday . About the picture of the post on Central, I am sure that Dave Musheigan took it at the concert in Rome, where Morrissey wore a red shirt, whilst in Lucca he was wearing the same blue-grey flower shirt he wore for the concert at the Gasometer in Vienna. By the way, I am glad I could attend all these three fantastic concerts and I do hope I will able to at

If the concert had been yesterday - this year, Monday is my day off at school, as Friday - it would have been better, because it is quite stressing to run away from my lycée which is at 40 km from Paris, but I am happy to attend another concert of Brigitte calls me Baby, the rock band from Chicago that I have discovered last year, thanks to Morrissey, who chose them as opening act for his concerts in Dublin and Paris. I am also happy to see again some French friends I met at

Living in Paris, I have always dreamt of singing in a band and even forming one on my own, but I soon realized that there were and still are many obstacles to music projects, and not just the main one - i. e., how to live doing music : Musical tastes are not easy to combine, even in a huge, cosmopolitan city like Paris. There still are people who want to rock... in French, which is ( désolée , mes amis français ! ) one of the most boring languages for rock, punk and to

You came to my Rescue On Saint Patrick's Day You took Me by the Hand On Saint Patrick's Day You helped Me to face Evil On Saint Patrick's Day You stood by my Side On Saint Patrick's Day You, my Oracle You, my Miracle You, my Spectacle You, my Friend On Patrick's Day And Every Day God bless and protect You Silver Boy Fantastic Bird To YOU Vera da Pozzo Paris, 17th March 2026 Saint Patrick's Day Poem published above and Poem in link above are both written by me.

Spring has arrived earlier this year, thanks to Morrissey and his European tour which has started in Aarhus in mid-February and has finished tonight in Seville. I have not yet the time to finish all my posts about the four ( they should have been five ) concerts I have had the chance to attend (Hamburg, Rotterdam, Lille and Zurich) and this rentrée will not allow me to write more, at least for the next two weeks. Below, some pics of Morrissey's concert in Seville, via Getty

A quiet walk in my favourite Parisian park, far from Hell and evil people. Unfortunately, it is also far from Seville, where Morrissey will sing tonight. Sing and shine tonight, Fantastic Bird! Art is an Eternal Spring. I hope I will see You again in Europe this year, during my school holidays. Below, some flowers from my havre de paix in Paris. Photos by me.

Some flowers for YOU. Photos taken by me in my favourite Parisian park, this afternoon. P. S. It was a great concert, and I knew it. Los cabrones working for the Spanish press will be furiously disappointed. Below, two pictures of the concert, found on the Web. I will edit with due credits when I found the photographer's name or nickname. #flowersfromParis #toYOU #SilverBoy #SingandShine #Morrissey #VeradaPozzo #ItalyisMine #italyismineanditowesmealiving
