Thought you would like to know that Morrissey's "Nobody Loves Us" came in at #1 of this list of the 100 Most Underrated Indie Rock Songs - Mandatory. "Wonderful Woman" came in at #38.

Thanks for your time!

Yeah, they would just pull a Sex Pistols. Or at least Morrissey would. Marr might actually show up.

in the April 18th episode of Charlie Sheen's "Anger Management" entitled "Charlie and Lacey Piss Off the Neighborhood" Selma Blair's character says she didn't go to prom because she was "smoking pot with Morrissey at the Roxy"

huh?? the show has writers who know enough to reference Morrissey but at the same time know so little about him that this reference would work to them?

"Irish Blood, English Heart" clip (39 seconds) from forthcoming Hollywood High DVD?

I'm reading The Stone Roses: War and Peace book by Simon Spence, and there is this quote in the book from Si Wolstencroft (the drummer in pre-Stone Roses band The Patrol and pre-Smiths band Freak Party) that I thought you'd find interesting:

"'I just didn't fancy it,' said Wolstencroft. 'I didn't like the cut of Morrissey's jib and the rest is history.' The Smiths replaced Wolstencroft with Mike Joyce, signed to Rough Trade Records and quickly scored two massive hits with 'This Charming Man' and 'What Difference Does it Make?' before releasing their eponymous debut album in February 1984. 'We watched them go from being kids rehearsing, to being on Top of the Pops, to being a big and important band,' said Garner [Pete Garner, bassist for The Patrol]. 'So once you've seen your mates on telly, you're like, F***, we can do this.'"

There is also a throwaway line in the book that said Johnny Marr thought about...

Keith Top of the Pops - "Morrissey Will Never Forgive Me" (MP3) (PopMatters Premiere) - PopMatters

Excerpt:

On this lead-off track from TOTP2, “Morrissey Will Never Forgive Me”, Keith Top of the Pops takes the piss a bit, using snippets from Morrissey lyrics and then saying how the former Smith would never forgive him. The song was recorded live with full band in one take to preserve the sense of urgency in the tune. TOTP2 will be released May 17th via Corporate Records.
