Morrissey has cancer

Let's all cross our fingers/cry together.

Pet_Sounds 10-07-2014 02:01 PM

:( And he's going to stop writing songs too.

Isbjørn 10-07-2014 03:28 PM

A good thing: he's writing a novel. I'm going to read it so hard when it comes out.

RoxyRollah 10-07-2014 05:17 PM

Cancer sucks....God was there a reason you skipped Bon Jovi?

So long as he keeps on prayin', he'll keep on livin'.

All he said is "They have scraped cancerous tissues four times already"

That probably means skin cancer. Not gonna kill him as long as they keep scraping. In fact I won't be surprised if what they "scraped" was pre-cancerous skin growths but that he, being Morrissey, prefers to say Cancerous Tissues. Ah well, good luck to the old bastard regardless.

That's awesome I had no idea. Poor guy though!

Sad to hear but interesting article Briks.

Despite his health problems i admire the mindset he has

Spoiler for Morrissey quote:
"They have scraped cancerous tissues four times already, but whatever. If I die, then I die. And if I don't, then I don't. Right now I feel good. I am aware that in some of my recent photos I look somewhat unhealthy, but that's what illness can do. I'm not going to worry about that, I'll rest when I'm dead."


To me it seems he doesn't want to quit being a musician but that he just can't handle it due to health problems.
it also seems to me he is switching his creative medium to a less stressful one, if his body can't handle touring as a musician, f*ckin write novels then, that's just a smart move.

I hope he gets better and i hope he doesn't give up music forever.

William_the_Bloody 10-07-2014 11:01 PM

I wish him well and hope he makes a full recovery.

The_Playground 10-08-2014 05:38 AM

Poor guy! He's had a lot to deal with his year, wish him all the best!

Now that's a bit much, but if it stops him from making any more albums I'll take it :D:finger:.

You can f-f-fade away too.

Goofle 10-09-2014 02:47 PM

I do have to ask why anybody would want to listen to a recent Morrisey album?

And I hope he gets better as soon as possible.

Mondo Bungle 10-09-2014 03:41 PM

The Smiths were okay, never listened to any solo albums of his.
Morrissey's a punk ass bitch anyway.

Urban Hat€monger ? 10-09-2014 03:46 PM

Still ill?

You Are the Quarry was okay... the past few releases after that have been meh though.

Although I haven't had the time to listen to his new album I actually prefer his newer stuff compared to when his solo career began

Years of Refusal and You are the Quarry

Josef K 10-12-2014 07:07 PM

Southpaw Grammar is his only solo album that I really like.

So, the light that never goes out is looking pretty dim now isn't it?
Sure, cancer's horrible and I don't wish to see anyone suffer from it, but my god, has music ever seen a bigger cunt than Morrisey?

I think the dude from Lost Prophets may have an edge on him.

He was diagnosed with barrets esophagus earlier in the year. It could very well be esophageal cancer. Or, like you said, pre-cancerous cells.
I think we likely cracked it between those two. Not too bad.

Travis Barker has it too. Makes me paranoid.

It's like the government is trying to rid the world of overrated musicians.
