First Look: Morrissey, ‘I’m Throwing My Arms Around Paris’

The city, not the Hilton
January 18th, 2009

Morrissey has got a new music video out for the first single from his new album Years Of Refusal which is due out on February 17. Here are a few screencaps from his new single and music video I’m Throwing My Arms Around Paris:


I’ve been fortunate enough to be able to preview the album in full and, honestly, I wasn’t immediately wowed. It took me a few listens to really get into the disc but I’m totally on board with it now. It does sound a bit like his previous albums, which is good but (on the negative side) sometimes just sounds like more of the same. After the jump, check out the video for I’m Throwing My Arms Around Paris and judge for yourself …


Moz is Moz and I totally <3 him. As I said, after a few listens I totally got the album and I quite like this simple video. I'm just glad to see that the Mozzer is still up for makin’ music. Here’s hopin’ this will not be the last disc that we’ll get from the miserable one.

    Trent, I have to disagree slightly with you, I think years of refusal is better than ringleader, better sound, better lyrics and more in the vein of vauxhall and I.
    love the new album and love Moz.

  2. PinkIsTheBestBlog Says:

    I love him, too. I love everything Morrissey has ever done, actually. Trent – you sure have great taste in music!

  3. Wow Says:

    Definitely better than Ringleader… I’m hooked on this song but I could do without the music video. Moz<3

  4. Mike Says:

    Morrissey pissed me off with comments he made last year about immigrants in England…yet he lives in Paris. What a hypocrite.

  5. happy Says:

    The song isn’t bad but wow does he look old. I saw him in concert 20 years ago and he was hot. Time takes it toll I guess.

    I got my ticket friday to see him, woot!!! Can’t wait!!

    P.s. Morrissey was miss quoted on the “immigrants in England” drama. Read up on it.

  8. Daniel Says:

    ughw he is too old… :S

  9. Avi Says:

    Love him, always will. But, his music is not the same anymore. Too rocked out. Compare Ringleader to Bona Drag..and Vauxhall and I. Those were brilliant. His new works are not so great..long song titles and bad lyrics.

  10. Avi Says:

    Oh and to add to this, his body language and expressions are annoying. This is coming from a true fan who misses the old Moz, but understands that artists change.

    This year will be Morrissey’s year, I can feel it!

    Trent, I could not agree more. I love the Moz to death but he needs to change direction.
