My Music Monday

Erik's month; Erik's theme: songs about a particular city.

I wasn't (and am not) planning on doing only European cities, but 2 of 2 are just that. This week it is Paris.

I had any number of songs from which to choose, but I went with Morrissey.

In Columbus, CD101 used to have a long running contest: "what would Morrissey do. And the answer is always C :write a song about how lonely and miserable he is.

But that's why I love Morrissey.

And I love(d) his 2009 release, Years of Refusal.  On that disk he had "I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris"  ....because nobody needs or wants his love.

Sad. ...and miserable.
