Morrissey – “Hello Hell” (Audio)
‘Deluxe Notre-Dame’
Sire Records – June 26, 2026
*Morrissey – “Hello Hell” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOB3v1LqpdQ // https://www.morrisseycentral.com // https://genius.com/Morrissey-hello-hell-lyrics // From ‘Deluxe Notre-Dame,’ the just-released album by Morrissey, available now via Sire Records. I got my vinyl in the mail a couple weeks ago! The yellow and blue of the EP and LP, respectively, I’m now thinking are a nod to the Sire color scheme with his triumphant return to the label after many moons.*
Amid a backlash, we stuck to our guns. Then Morrissey clarified; A disagreement over the meaning of the words ‘there’s diversity for you’ manifested some of the worst negativity our page has ever seen
