truly contains Morrissey's words?

Although I find it a lot more credible than the "interview".

Thanks God!!! Those words made my day.

Thanks Morrissey for the feedback :)
*and this is Morrissey all right, I can hear his accent while reading the post.*

Thought not. But I take it some people will be posting some grovelling apologies here now, will they? When will these doubters learn? Never, probably...

OK, the Oasis thing made me kinda skeptical, but Prefab Sprout? I just could not see it. Maybe he has bee listening to a lot of Ponce too. I mean Prince.

huh, I can see mighty mo sitting @ his nice little macintosh computer, head-shakingly typing away e-mails to david t. (the real one).

I*m glad he did so, I couldn*t have lived with the thought of Oasis in morrissey*s innocent ears...

I was a little skeptical of the interview myself, some of it seems pieced together from old snippets. Checking my 1995 Q interview, I find this:

What do you think of Oasis?
I've always liked them. I think they're very amusing and very Mancunian and the best Manchester group since... (shrugs smilingly). But I do wish the singer wasn't so put out. "Do I really have to sing this next verse?" He could always go back to being a painter and decorator in Burnage. I read a comment supposedly by me in Club International where I called them boring electricians, words which have never left my lips. So they've slagged me off, of course, they have to, but I like them. Noel's very funny. Very runt of the litter. You can tell that he'd run off with the fillings in his grandmother's teeth but that doesn't mean he doesn't love her.

So we know he at least liked Oasis at some point. Sorry.

I read the article and thought PANTS!!! so I'm so glad he didn't say those things. But then did he really reply to the 'article'. I think you have to be very careful when submitting articles on the web site.

Morrissey is the man. Not giving a ratsass about a good-for-nothing Oasis. Can't wait for the new songs to be released. Let us have it old boy, right in the kisser. And thanks for setting the story straight.

We love our fellow friend Fantasy don’t we?

Although I had my doubts about the "interview", I would like to hear from DavidT as to how credible "Moz's" response is - where did it come from etc.?

Which part of the 'here is his response:' didn't you understand? If I don't post a source, then you can assume the site is the source.

Thanks DavidT for posting that. Oasis lost it a long time ago. After the first album really.

Ei David can you send me Morrissey's adress mail? I have a long letter to him since I was 14 (I'm 28 now so I think it's the right time now!). Jokking.

I think this is Morrissey speaking...who else would say "whilst in Mexico City..."

It's good to know he's around here...

I forgot. The Spanish word for "Morrissey" translates directly into the English "El Vez"

Where, exactly, was El Vez while this 'interview' went on? He's been far too quiet as of late. My heart blames him.

THANK GOD! That was the comment, (aside from the "blacks") that most appalled me. It's good to hear that he's NOT an Oasis (crap band) fan.

Thank you, to whomever submitted this to Moz himself. It's good to know that it was a fraud.

I knew that he had new song material ready to go. I can't wait until he releases it on the internet...

that interview got me listening to oasis just to find out one more time they're pure crap.
now that i know the truth , i will sleep quiet again.

So, El Moz, the Mexican Morrissey was doing interviews....

I knew that interview was a bit of bollocks - and of course, Moz doesn't listen to Oasis, like the rest of the intellegent world now they've slided down to a Beatles cover band.

I've got a very special thing to say to Morrissey: He's got lots of latin and african american fans, and sometimes people mention that he's racist. I don't know the real truth about it and I would never judge Morrissey since I love him, but I'd love to know his feelings about this complex subject. People love Morrissey, does no matter their races, but how about Morrissey ?????

I'm very impressed indeed that Morrissey cares enough to set the record straight. It's great to be the fan of an artist, whom genuinely appreciates his audience. I'm (im)patiently awaiting the next release :I Cheers, Moz!

So at last, some words from himself...but we knew all along it was a lie, right? I mean, some stories are just too hard to believe...

And new songs...yee haw!

I noticed how all the responses were similiar to things Morrissey had said in past interviews. It's quite sad how someone's life is so pointless they spend their time making up fake interviews.

Hey people, may I remind you that this is a Morrissey fan site. So stop mentioning Oasis. Their first album may be OK, but now they're a farce. For those who like a good laugh: here's a review of their performance at Rock Werchter, by a trendsetting Belgian magazine. "Wathever happens: we hate Oasis. As long as you bang on long and hard enough about how big and handsome and great you are, and as long as you poke your middle finger or a broken beerglass in the eye of anybody who dares to suggest that you stole it all from the Beatles, you will always find a bunch of spineless idiots who take your word for it. But we're not into that: we truly hate Oasis. We hate their music, their mentality, their ugly mancunian pieholes, their fans, their groupies, their entourage, yes even their eyebrows, the anoying whine of Liam Gallagher, the even more irritating way in which he boringly shakes his tambourine, the laughable, lifeless 'I-really-have-to-go'pose behind the microphone. We won't even talk about the music, a fat peasoup of noise in which everything that faintly sounds like taste or inspiration is stolen from Lennon and McCartney. And all the fans who take it that masterbrain Noel gets himself replaced halfway the fookin' tour, well they just deserve a band like Oasis, until the last anoying note, the last clattering fart. And what a shame the Werchter audience didn't take an example to the Pinkpop audience in Holland: they trew junk at Liam's head, until he cowardly stopped the show. Who are the fookin' sissies actually?"
Oh my God, I just wasted ten minutes of my life translating an article about Oasis!

There's just one detail I'd like to point out: people here complain all the time about rumours and fakes, but on the other hand they are, sometimes, the ones to start them. How? Jumping to conclusions instead of buiding a rational approach. One week was enough to cause every sort of bad things to be written about Morrissey here due to a faked interview, now I see some more examples, as saying that somebody who is Mexican was the one who forged Morrissey's place during the interview.
First of all, Morrissey just suggested the possibility that somebody took his place in the interview as a way to exhaust all possibilities, and never said much more about the subject.
But just to oppose more recent rumours here: how could a person who was born in America and lived there most of his life immitate Morrissey, possibly?
We have to trust our instincts on the Internet, for we cannot see here. But vision is just one sense, and instincts are often a product of mixed senses and impressions, which can be submitted to rational approach at any time, for often they make sense.
I confess I was fooled about two other rumours related to other members of the band, but this time, while reading the interview, and trying to translate it to English, I could not find Morrissey's "echo" in there.
If we are talking about how to establish an identity as real, as the right one, we don't need DNA samples nor trust: there's always something that is UNIQUE in that person that we are aware of. And, once again, this post is REALLY a genuine one. Try to "hear" it instead of reading it.

I almost lost belief in my music taste when reading about my Moz listening to the mostarrogantleastcreative band on earth called "Oasis" ... but thank God he himself put everything straight !!
  The best thing about his comment is that one can almost hear him speak (or even sing) those lines... hmmm - Moz, how about transforming these words into a little song ?!
  Anyway, PLEASE don't withhold the treasure of new material from us anymore!!!

Hmmmm Lombard... Oasis... I guess she didn't actually kill herself but I now have a theory of what she died from...

"Now this is the basis for judgement, that the light has come into the world but men have loved the darkness rather than the light, for their works were wicked. For he that practices vile things hates the light and does not come to the light, in order that his works not be reproved. But he that does what is true comes to the light, in order that his works may be made manifest as having been worked in harmony with Moz."
                                            Moz 3:19-3:21

I don't doubt that the statement given to David T was emailed/faxed to him directly from Morrissey. I do wonder though if good ol' devious, truculunt, unreliable Morrissey isn't lying to save face. He's probably been on here reading everyone's uproar to the interview, which would explain why he's sent this message to David. Now, just what if the interview was in fact real, but he decided to say "it never happened" 'cause he's seen the uproar. (Kinda like he was never scheduled to play that Japanese festival, yet everyone in his band and crew knew about it and was making plans to go...so...erm.... Know what I mean?) He's got a history of lying to save his ass. Why wouldn't he lie now?

For the record, I consider myself a huge Morrissey fan. I think he's swell, but frankly I could give a flying rat's ass whether he likes Oasis or not. I think I'm a fairly hip and with it gal and been occaisionally known to listen to some pretty rank music. So really, what's the big deal? If Morrissey did an interview tomorrow and said, "Golly, you know I just love Oasis! They're my fave!!", it wouldn't change my opinion of the man or his music. This whole nonsense reminds me of when I was in highschool. I was a sad little goth-ling so naturally, I listened to sad goth music. Until one horrible day I had a friend over and they discovered I owned an...oh no...Enya cd. You'd would've thought that I shat in the middle of the floor. So let's not all be so high school my school, okay? Who cares?

I'm not sure how I should take that "Mexican impersonator" comment. --Jose Maldonado

it's the only way to let MORRISSEY give a statement today that makes all of us happy... isn't it a tragedy?

MOZ would never ever believe, answer or ask those things we are all seem to be interested in...there are more things in life to that I suppose...more things to pay attention at. and it seems that nobody ever understood a word he sang.
...a tragedy, that's what I said...

it's time for a new release to get something to talk about seriously.

I didn't read the article but in reply to it Misery says he would never refer to African americans as blacks. Well, how would he refer to them? By the way, did you know that Morrissey and El Vez live together? This is not a piece of fiction, it's fact. So, thats another little mystery about Moz gone!!!

Tell us more, cause we care,and we want to know.

I find it interesting they "asked" if Mox had plans to record with Siouxsie, Chrissie Hynde and Brett Anderson, since he has recorded with Siouxsie and Chrissie. I haven't heard of any collaboration between Moz and Brett but that would truely be something grand.

Didn't "Wall of Voodoo" sing Mexican Interview...
Anyways, while researching the supposed interview, I was pleased to find additional interviews with God, Darth Vader and the Tooth Fairy... Apparently, they are ALL without a label but have new material..
Mexican Interviews I'd like to see: Joan of Arc, Dana Plato and the guy who sang in Kaja Goo-Goo's "Too Shy"...
P.s. Is there any truth that Joe Slee is touring with Kid Rock... He references her in several songs...

just for the record.
#1-the fake intevieu appear in a ARGENTINIAN page and it's suppose was made by a argentinian reporter in mexico city...
#2-the traslation of "el vez" in spanish doesn"t have any sense like suzzane say, is like"the see" or "the time" "elvez" is just a imitation of ELVIS you see? ELVES-ELVIS,the word morrisey doesn't have a traslation in spanish because is a personal name.
#3-you gays are rigth there in no way that someone knew that word in mexico,is not the kind of word you learn in school or acapulco....hell i live in canada and still never hear it!

Well, at least we did end up getting some information out of the hardest man on the planet to interview.
How ironic it is....

ok, so the deal is no one can really have a go at anyone else for not realising the interview was fake, when i read it at first i thought "hmmm" but then the man himself is so contradictory how the hell can any of us humble fans get into his psyche when we don't really know him?? it just shows how easily something like that can be faked if the faker has researched their topic a bit. much as some of you would like to believe it, no one else but him can understand morrissey the man and so stop flipping pretending that you know everything about him!
