Overlord was the code name for the operation commonly known as D-Day, in which the Allies attacked the Nazi held beaches in Normandy, France on June 6, 1944. This attack would allow the Allies to gain a foothold in Europe and eventually defeat the Nazi's.
The Overlord I am referencing is a band. They have a song I just recently discovered, which is a tribute to Morrissey, called "I Want To Die With You, Morrissey". It is a very pleasant tune, the words are somewhat hard to discern but the video is very good. Morrissey and his music touches so many people in countless ways. He is an icon and we are blessed to be able to enjoy his words, music, intelligence and his amazing concerts.
Overlord "I Want To Die With You, Morrissey
I WANT TO DIE WITH YOU, MORRISSEYIn school halls, by club wallsFrom Rome to East L.A.Our patron saint of suffering singsAnd another life is savedAnd who's the oneWhose words have earnedThis charming Mancunian deityHis army of the solitary's mortal loyalties?I want to die with you, Morrissey!I want to feel how you feel even one last timeYou let your life be mineSo I'll be next in lineI want to die with you, Morrissey!I want to show you when you go I'll be by your sideWho will confirm our doubtsWhen your light goes out?I want to die with you, Morrissey!The boulder rolls overOur hero once moreBut he chases it slowerThan he did beforeHe says:Dear friends,As much as I've enjoyedBeing destroyed for your anthemsYou'll have to make sense of this senselessnessBy your lonesomeBut I want to die with you, Morrissey!I want to feel how you feel just one last timeYour every word rings trueI've always followed youI want to die with you, Morrissey!I won't lose who speaks truth to the powerlessOne minute without youI couldn't say yes toI want to die with you, Morrissey!Be still my heartShould you depart!I'd die without youI'd die without youSo can I die with you?I want to die with you, Morrissey!I want to feel how you feel in your final hoursYou let my life be mineSo I'll be next in lineI want to die with you, Morrissey!I want to share the fear that dare not speak its nameFor all you've pulled me throughCan't I comfort you?I want to die with you, Morrissey!I want to die with you, Morrissey!I want to die with you, Morrissey!
For some reason, the band name of Overlord caused me to think of the song "Space Lord" by Monster Magnet. I have no clue why? I guess I'm just an odd guy. And here I sit in my odditorium, thinking and writing my futile, bizarre thoughts.
Space Lord
Our Moz is continuing his wonderful tour of the UK. He has played shows in Nottingham, Bournemouth, Cardiff (Wales). From all I've read and the videos I've watched, Mozza looks and sounds spectacular. The crowds are great and very hyped to be in the presence of Our Moz.
Speedway!!!!!
Unfortunately I won't be able to see Morrissey, because he is touring the UK and I'm in the USA! I've got my fingers crossed he will come to Pittsburgh this summer. You know, if I were a seagull I could get to the UK. Hmmmmm, oh never mind, I'd probably fly around till someone would shoot me down.
