I'm drinking Henessey

this is not news (Score:0)
So basically if any nobody uses the name "Morrissey" in a song

And the context is not important

And it tells us nothing about anything

It is news?

He's also mentioned in their song "It's About Time" (the B-side to the Emily Kane CDS):

"There was a time when I couldn't stomach Morrissey
I thought he can't have had as hard a life as me
You write this down in your diary
and leave it open for me to see"

          This old as dirt.

          We all learned about it when the song first appeared years ago.

          He frequently quotes Smiths lyrics at gigs.

              Art Brut are excellent!. Excellent stuff!.

              However ..... as much as I'm thrilled that you've discovered this lyric ..... It's been around for quite a long time. 2005, if I recall.

                a band called Beatnik Filmstars who are about a zillion times more interesting than Art Brut mentioned Moz in a song ages ago on an album called 'In Good Shape'. So Art Brut are hardly original
