   Great album! Yes there are some skippable songs but the majority are great songs.

   World Peace is None of Your Business is a long overdue return to form for Morrissey. Gone are the typically bland, under-inspired indie-glamWorld Peace is None of Your Business is a long overdue return to form for Morrissey. Gone are the typically bland, under-inspired indie-glam arrangements that blighted You are the Quarry and Years of Refusal. Inward bound are some sleek world-music style arrangements that are, mercifully, different from anything Morrissey has recorded before. It's a seemingly one-shot deal, much like Kill Uncle. Just like that record, you'll either love it or hate it. As a long time Morrissey fan, I personally love it. It's wonderful to hear Moz flirting with something new for a change. And it's a change that really works! World Peace is not Your Business is the most consistent, artistically satisfying Morrissey record for the last twenty years. And if THAT isn't enough to sway you, maybe nothing will. Simply put,this an a fantastic Morrissey record from start to finish.… Expand

On albums such as You Are The Quarry, he makes sure his lyrics are as aggressive and obnoxious as possible, or at least they act like it. It is on albums like that, that his angered lyrical concepts become tiresome and uninteresting to the point of stopping the album barely half way through. World Peace.. makes sure it doesn't leave its messages behind, but there is something else here as well that sees both Morrissey's music and lyrics fresh, refined and new. His head is almost empty of the clutter and instead treads to simple, less rant more kind of pondering styles of lyricism. He treads other topics as well (that means, no war, royalty, war, vegetarianism etc) , some simple and passive as anything he's written in a very long while. The album is enjoyable, and though with its fair amount of filler is otherwise one to keep near by for end of year lists.… Expand

   I am a long standing {suffering?!} Smiths/Morrissey fan, so it pains me to say it, but I've just about given up on him. This is yet anotherI am a long standing {suffering?!} Smiths/Morrissey fan, so it pains me to say it, but I've just about given up on him. This is yet another underwhelming album, with very few memorable songs. To be fair, he is in fine voice, possibly never better, and he has attempted to experiment more {though I like the rockier sound he's known for}. The end result though, is a bunch of songs that outstay their welcome long before the end.… Expand
