Sobre el álbum

Tras un nuevo parón de cinco años, World Peace Is None of Your Business llegó en 2014 con un mensaje tan contundente como su título. Este álbum es uno de los más explícitamente políticos de la carrera de Morrissey. En él, el artista ataca con su habitual sarcasmo e ingenio a la clase política, la brutalidad policial y la apatía de la sociedad.

Musicalmente, el disco es muy variado y rico en texturas, con arreglos que incluyen influencias de la música latina o el flamenco, como se puede apreciar en "The Bullfighter Dies". La banda suena potente y versátil, creando el colchón perfecto para las diatribas líricas del cantante. La publicación del disco vino acompañada de una serie de vídeos de "spoken word" que reforzaban el mensaje de las canciones.

El álbum tuvo una vida comercial corta y turbulenta, ya que fue retirado de las plataformas digitales poco después de su lanzamiento debido a una disputa con su sello discográfico. Pese a ello, "World Peace Is None of Your Business" es un trabajo valiente y líricamente muy afilado.

  1. World Peace Is None Of Your Business

    Letra

    World peace is none of your business You must not tamper with arrangements Work hard and sweetly pay your taxes Never asking what for Oh, oh, you poor little fool Oh, oh, you fool World peace is none of your business Police will stun you with their stun guns Or they’ll disable you with tasers That’s what governments for Oh, oh, you poor little fool Oh, oh, you fool World peace is none of your business So would you kindly keep your nose out The rich must profit and get richer And the poor must stay poor Oh, oh, you poor little fool Oh, oh, you fool Each time you vote you support the process Each time you vote you support the process Each time you vote you support the process Brazil, Bahrain Oh, Egypt, Ukraine So many people in pain No more you poor little fool No more you fool
  2. Neal Cassady Drops Dead

    Letra

    Neal Cassady drops dead And Allen Ginsberg’s tears shampoo his beard Neal Cassady drops dead And Allen Ginsberg’s lips tighten and thin Neal Cassady drops dead Allen Ginsberg's hosed down in a barn Neal Cassady drops dead And Allen Ginsberg’s howl becomes a growl Everyone has babies Babies full of rabies Rabies full of scabies Scarlet has a fever Ring’s full of ringworm Angel of disdain Poor little fella has got rubella Liver full of fungus Junior full of gangrene Mine is melanoma Tikes full of gripe Whippersnapper’s scurvy Urchin made of acne Get that thing away from me Victim, or life’s adventurer Which of the two are you? Victim or life’s adventurer Which of the two are you?
  3. Istanbul

    Letra

    When he first cried his mother died I had tried to be his guide When he was born I was too young The father searches for the son In Istanbul Give him back to me Oh Istanbul Give me back my brown eyed son Moonlight jumping through the trees Sunken eyes avoiding me From dawn to dusk the hunt is on The father searches for the son In Istanbul Give him back to me In Istanbul Give me back my brown eyed son On secret streets in disbelief Little shadow shows the lead Prostitutes stylish and glum In amongst them you are one Oh what have I done Rolling breathless off the tongue The vicious street gang slang I lean into a box of pine Identify the kid as mine
  4. I´m Not A Man
  5. Earth Is The Loneliest Planet

    Letra

    Earth is the loneliest planet of all Earth is the loneliest planet of all Day after day you say “one day, one day” Day after day you say “one day, one day” But you’re in the wrong place and you’ve got the wrong face And humans are not really very humane And earth is the loneliest planet of all Earth is the loneliest planet of all Live with a lowness that no one else knows Time after time you say “next time, next time” Time after time you say “next time, next time” But you fail as a woman and you lose as a man We do what we can And earth is the cruelest place you will never understand But you're in the wrong skin But the skin that you're in says all Let it begin And earth is the loneliest planet of all Earth is the loneliest planet of all Earth is the loneliest planet of all Day after day you say: One day, one day Day after day you say: One day, one day But there's always a reason why you're refused They always blame you, you, you And there is nothing anyone can do

  9. Smiler With Knife

    Letra

    See in me the side of you That sometimes makes you jump with fright Smiler with knife it's your big night Sinking bed all warm and clean Only sadness waits for me Smiler with knife you're just in time You're just in time Press the blade against my skin Never to make love again Smiler with knife it's alright Surrender will I am before you I am sick to death of life Smiler with knife alight Alight If such things weren't meant to be Then they would never come to me Smiler, oh, don't worry so Slamming one shots, gentle pain Someone calling out my name Sex and love are not the same Are not the same Time has frittered long and slow All I am and was will go But where to and why now? When my last breath falls away Smiler, trust me when I say "You'll be ok" "You'll be ok"
  10. Kick The Bride Down The Aisle

    Letra

    Kick the bride down the aisle And make no mistake It's the best you can do For everyone's sake Kick the bride down the aisle And treasure the day I know so much more Than I'm willing to say She just wants a slave To break his back in pursuit of a living wage So that she can laze and graze For the rest of her days Write down every word I say Kick the bride down the aisle In a mudslide of gloom She'll order you to Tidy your room Kick the bride down the aisle Look at that cow in the field It knows more than Your bride knows now She just wants a slave To break his back in pursuit of a living wage So that she can laze and graze For the rest of her days Write down every word I say You're that stretch of the beach That the tide doesn't reach No reason, no meaning The lonely season Kick the bride down the aisle And treasure the day
  11. Mountjoy

    Letra

    The joy brings many things It cannot bring you joy Sons of mothers huddle here Men and boys 1850 swung the doors And human sewage swept inside Where victims speak in whines And where the hardened cried I was sent here by a 3 foot half-wit in a wig I took his insults on the chin, and never did I flinch A swagger hides the fear in here By this rule we breathe And there is no one on this earth Who I’d feel sad to leave You see we all lose We all lose What those in power do to you Reminds us at a glance How humans hate each others’s guts And show it given a chance We never say aloud the things That we say in our prayers Cause no one cares Many executed here By the awful lawfully good But the only thing that makes me cry Is when I see the sky Bredan Behan laughter rings For what he had or hadn’t done Because he knew then as I know now That for each and every one of us: We all lose Rich or poor, we all lose
  12. Oboe Concerto

    Letra

    Oboe concerto All the best ones are dead And there's a song I can't stand And it's stuck in my head There's a song I can't stand And it's stuck in my head Oboe concerto All I do is drink to absent friends And there's a song I can't stand And it's stuck in my head There's a song I can't stand And it's stuck in my head The older generation have tried, sighed & died Which pushes me to their place queue Round, rhythm goes round Round, round rhythm of life goes round Round, the rhythm goes round Round, round rhythm of life goes round Round, the rhythm goes round Round, round rhythm of life goes round Round, the rhythm goes round Round, round rhythm of life goes round
