Contents section para 7 As sourced by an Irish Independent article this portion of the material is misleading in my opinion not through any fault of the editor s but because the newspaper article it was sourced from did not represent it exactly as it was written in Rogan s book From this article Morrison signed a contract with Bert Berns and just before he left for New York made a speech to his friends and ended with One day you ll see my picture up on the wall and you ll all say I knew him And I ll just say Fuck you As quoted in the Irish Independent On the eve of his departure to New York he met up with his friends and made a big speech concluding with the words One day you ll see my picture up on the wall and you ll all say I knew him And I ll just say Fuck you Irish Independent 04 25 05 And directly from P 198 of Johnny Rogan s book No Surrender Relieved that the recordings were actually happening Morrison could not resist some small gloating over his good fortune and returned to Fitzroy Avenue just before his departure He was in the kitchen talking to all the boys and we were all lying around in the front room settling down for the evening Janet Martin remembers Then Van walked in and came out with this big speech Everybody just sat there in shocked silence He said One day you ll see my picture up on the wall and you ll all say I knew him It was just silence after that But he was bloody right Gwen Carson confirmed Martin s account verbatim but remembers a vicious punchline directed at one of the musicians in their company Turning to his victim Morrison sneered And I ll just say Fuck you Carson notes There s a big difference in using the term to include all his friends and in specifically directing it at one musician with whom he had a personally negative relationship and it might also be noted in the quotation from Rogan s book the first witness did not quote Morrison as using the FY term at all
