Two Moz-related items in this month's issue of Select magazine (UK).
1) In a feature on The Deftones:
He’s [singer Chino] still got one ambition left to realise. “One day I’m going to record a Morrissey track. Oh, it will happen,” he says enthusiastically. “Maybe ‘Will Never Marry’, it’s such a soothing song.”
2) In a feature on trance DJ Paul Van Dyk:
“Imagine it,” he recalls today, “12 years old, doing your homework in grey Eisenhüttenstadt, in grey East Berlin, the radio on in the background. Then suddenly this thing comes on, and I’m like, ‘Wow, what’s this?’”
‘This’ was The Smiths – ‘Western bourgeois decadence’ personified…Paul tracked down an English-German dictionary and obsessively began to translate Morrissey’s words, teaching himself English in the process…“For years I took ‘Hand In Glove’ literally, and I thought Morrissey only liked girls!”
