Morrissey - Seasick Yet Still Docked

Morrissey - Seasick Yet Still Docked (official video)

[stevensmurthwaite]

You may laugh but imo Morrissey is the most consistent songwriter Britain has produced, this is simply a masterpiece.

[mozhombre]

I still remember the way my heart skipped a beat the first time I heard " My love is as sharp as a needle in your eye, you must be such a fool to pass me by."

[Skinnymessican]

I love how this song captures basically feeling sorry for yourself in a way that simultaneously invalidates AND validates those feelings. It uses hyperbole and irony to show how aware he is of those who would perceive this as whining all while making it real for the listener. I love it.

I am tearing up here.... This is such a wonderful song. Morrissey is just the best.

[shipkiss]

Morrissey - for over 30 years-- he, the melodies and lyrics are an emotional sanctuary that brings my mind to rest and provides such an inner peace...man he wrote the lyrics of my life

[cyberhermit]

Sometimes you need a break from his music because it's so real.

[dhog]

I have always been able to identify all too well with Morrissey's lyrics. Regardless of what people might think of him, this man's music has brought me through some very rough times and for that, I will always be a fan. Thank you, Moz.

This song is for the man I loved of 17yrs who just left me after a fight yesterday. I tried soon hard to make you love me. I raised your daughters. Gave you a home. You wouldn't even marry me when I asked you last night. Your silence answered for you. I'm soooo shocked and beyond broken. But I wish you the best in life. Truly do.
Thank you Morrissey, for being here for me. I'm gonna need your help again like I did when I was 17 and pregnant and my son's dad left me. Thank you. You've saved me from killing myself. I need you again..

I am a poor freezingly cold soul
So far from where
I intended to go
Scavenging through life's very constant lulls
So far from where I'm determined to go

Wish I knew the way to reach the one I love
There is no way ...
Wish I had the charm to attract the one I love
But you see, I've got no charm
Mmm...

Tonight I've consumed much more than I can hold
Oh, this is very clear to you
And you can tell I have never really loved
You can tell, by the way, I sleep all day

And all of my life no-one gave me anything
No-one has ever given me anything
My love is as sharp as a needle in your eye
You must be such a fool
To pass me by

[ilskin]

Morrissey's music makes my ego fade away, makes me know i am not perfect, and allows me to forgive myself. a spiritual feeling ..

[aiHappiness]

This song reminds me of when i was 14 years old trying to figure out life and now i'm 44 and still love the song

[gabrielllaurentino]

Morrissey's music it's meant for an audience that feels and experiences life in a very particular way. If you can relate to one of his songs, you feel a true and meaningful connection.

[dhog]

Sometimes, no meds can compare to just the right words at just the right time...

[logicn.reasoning]

Every few years, I will revisit Morrissey/The Smiths and have a good therapeutic cry, just to be reminded of my humanity.

[Noirvortex]

One of the only songs I almost killed myself too, picked up the knife, drunk, sodden and penniless on a boat in London. Thanks Mozzer for writing this song. You may be daft sometimes with your politics, but I can't ever deny that your music has saved my life a few more times than i'd care to mention

[TheLeo]

listening to morrisey is my favorite way to practice english and learn new vocabulary, and this song is just so.... i want a hug.

[jasonsohkanen]

This song and video always give me chills and goosebumps, and seeing the video the first time made me cry.  Oh, Moz, how could you ever say you've got no charm?  I wish you the love you have always wanted, and all the happiness in the world, charming man.

[DoctorMeatDic]

Such a beautiful song and video. So human, so affectionate and so loving. Morrissey is a beautiful soul, everything he records reminds me of how simple we really are and to have someone you love and who loves you makes our world.

I love the last line, dripping in sarcasm: "You must be such a fool to pass me by"

The man is one of a kind, a genius, an artist, a human.

If he passes before me, I will cry. I will be so sad, as will all of his fans. I feel like I have known him for over 25 years now. I listen to him singing every day.

[andreamoreno-diaz]

The most abject loneliness contrasted with videos of happy families. Only Moz.

[rococoness]

how can this man describe how im feeling so accurately? my love for mozz will never die <3
