Italy is mine

A freezy, sunny Day In Père Lachaise: Just like an impromptu, As I had something to do In Place Gambetta, I took my time and Visited my Friends This Afternoon On the top of the Trees Tiny Birds were singing Their Happiness, telling That Spring is nearer And Oscar and Robbie Could hear their songs As the Sun warmed The Sphynx and the Gravestone above An Unexpected Meeting And a Nice Conversation With a Tourist from New York In front of Wilde's Tomb Vera da Pozzo Paris, 19th Ja

Thank God, and against all odds, I managed to finish my artwork on Wednesday evening, just in time for the collective exhibition in Paris. My drawings were ready the day before but, as I had to get up very early to go to work on Wednesday, I had to put up the whole artwork and write the message (which is also its title) in the evening, during the vernissage.

Just before switching my smartphone to the flight mode, yesterday, I found some good news. If Morrissey-solo was just an informative forum, it would be a fantastic place, but there are too many angry, bitter and nasty people who seem having nothing else to do in their life than complaining, bitching and mobbing: I guess that All You need is Me is dedicated to them, and probably If You don't like Me, then don't look at Me too. Even if I had to go to work today, because Epipha

Christmas Time is the perfect time for some good news, and here is one from Morrissey : the new album, long-awaited and recently renewed before its release, is coming soon, and the new tracklist is known. After his post about Sire Records , last week (I was so busy I just had the time to copy, past and send to a French friend the link to Morrissey Central's post), we finally know the new tracklist of this album, whose title Without Music the World dies has changed, because t
