Morrissey Song Titles used as Subheadings in Academic Journal
Very cheekily, two academics have recently used Morrissey song titles and a slightly modified Smiths song title as subheadings for aspects of their article referenced below without once mentioning Moz although Wilde appears frequently. I wonder did the journal editors know about this prior to publishing it and would also love to know whether anyone else has come across Moz related refs occurring in other academic journals.

Inventing the pubs of Ireland: the importance of being postcolonial

Anthony Patterson and Stephen Brown

Journal of Strategic Marketing, Volume 15, Issue 1 February 2007 , pages 41 - 51

Subheadings:

AMERICA IS NOT THE WORLD
THIS IS NOT YOUR COUNTRY
IRISH BLOOD, ENGLISH HEART
WITH A RUSH AND A PUSH THE LAND IS OURS

Screenvision mentions The Smiths via Panic! at the Disco
Screenvision is a company that provides pre-movie entertainment in the form of trivia, quizzes, and music videos. At the start of one of their music segments, a sold-out Wall-E audience was treated to the factoid that Panic! At The Disco had named themselves after the song by The Smiths. Short and sweet and not terribly newsworthy, but an interesting exposure of The Smiths to a varied audience.

A book about to published by my wife and I uses various Moz quotes to preface chapters. It's a damn good read, I'll tell you.

      As my daughter, a big PATD fan vehemently points out, the band did not take their name from The Smiths' song. They used to say that early on in interviews, but later explained that their name came from a different source.

      Just setting the facts straight!
