Trash Can Sinatras song 'Leave Me Alone' (link to mp3) draws a Morrissey comparison in a review of their fairly recent Glasgow gig.

The Herald (Glasgow) - July 7, 2001 - John Williamson. Excerpt:
There are also thrills among the more recent songs. Leave Me Alone is the song Morrissey could have made if he had chosen to make solo records with Nashville session men instead of Cockney rockabillies, a tune which, to quote Paul Westerberg, is indeed "sadly beautiful."

Morrissey mention on "100 Greatest Kids Programs"
Morrissey was mentioned on UK's Channel 4's '100 Greatest Kids TV Programs' yesterday. The reference came from a comedien talking about a program (I can't remember which one, sorry) and said "As Morrissey once said 'It says nothing to me about my life!'" taken from "Panic".

    It's good to see the Trash Can Sinatras out and about again. They really remind me of Morrissey (that's how I actually got into them; I had mistaken their song "Only Tongue Can Tell" as a Morrissey song). It's too bad that their last album "A Happy Pocket" is not in print in the US. Better start cracking on e-bay

      The Kiddie's program in question was Black Beauty!

      I happen to live near the barn where Anna Sewell foddered her real life horses. But the TV show STILL says nothing to me about my life!

      Ricky Gervais was well funny on that top 100 show:

      A statement so deep it would take a lifetime to fully comprehend every nuance of its meaning. Either that or it’s Crap.
