LASCIATE OGNI SPERANZA!
from the womb to the tomb, what else is there ?
In what respect?tel-aviv is very obvious
Well - she wouldn't kneel. What do you normally do on your knees? Given the amount of other oral sex references on the album, this doesn't seem like too much of a stretch to me.In what respect?
I'd agree with that. Sex is universal - even if you aren't getting any - so everyone can identify with what Morrissey is singing about. Topics like the Venezuelan police force and the state of Israel, not so much.He should do more sex and less world politics.

Is he not? It started with Dear God on Ringleader, got him some attention, then again on Not your Birthday on Refusal, he forgot to add anything overtly sexual on World Peace, and so he made several references on High School. It's kind of like a study in diminishing returns.Not if you read some of the lame-brained reviews. Don't you know our Moz is apparently obsessed with crotches?
All the dancing, for one.from the womb to the tomb, what else is there ?

sorry, but no, thats not what i meant.Well - she wouldn't kneel. What do you normally do on your knees? Given the amount of other oral sex references on the album, this doesn't seem like too much of a stretch to me.
I don't think it whooshed over 99% of heads, but rather, only was interpreted as such by 1%. Kiss me a lot I excluded, because the less said about that sugar covered pap smear of a song the better.It's true there are less overt references to sex on 'World Peace', but it's not entirely absent - for example we have 'Kiss Me a Lot' ("kiss me all over the place"), 'Istanbul' is about a male prostitute (and includes a very smutty double entendre when it refers to his 'brown-eyed son'- an anal sex reference whish whooshed over 99% of the audience's head), and pretty much the whole of 'Smiler With Knife' equates the act of physical sex with violent death ("slam-in one-shot gentle pain, etc" - use more lube would be my advice, but whatever).
I think you'd be hard pressed to find any Morrissey/Smiths album that didn't have elements of smut - but he's certainly become more brazen about it in recent years.
'Istanbul' is about a male prostitute (and includes a very smutty double entendre when it refers to his 'brown-eyed son'- an anal sex reference whish whooshed over 99% of the audience's head)
A lot of the songs juxtapose war and sex. In Your also, for instance.
i guess you expect me to unveil a hidden wordplay here? thanks for asking, but there is none that i can see at the moment. i was just silly. the urban dictionary though, always a reliable source in such matters of common interest, offers some alternative definitions for "aviv" i'm pretty sure we're on to something here...In what respect?
is there really a play by the same title? i couldnt find one and had the impression etty hillesum was first of all a diaristThat is a really interesting point. And again one I hadn’t really considered. Out of interest, the song takes the same title as a Holocaust based theatre production by Etty Hillesum. But the double entendre potential escaped me until you mentioned it. A lot of the songs juxtapose war and sex. In Your also, for instance.

That's nothing. Wait till you see my 1,500 word essay on the erotic subtext of 'This is Not Your c***-try'!Such nonsense.

Shaven Cave makes me think of a hairless vagina.
Dammit, do I have to explain everything beneath the Mambo Sun to you?sorry, what do you mean?
