Morrissey in City Life's 'Greatest Mancunian Frontman' poll

The website www.citylife.co.uk is running a 'Greatest Mancunian Frontman' poll, and Morrissey is one of those nominated.

You can add your support to Morrissey by voting here:
Who Is Manchester's Greatest Frontman?

Not the cool swagger of Ian Brown, not the devil-may-care leader of the gang of Shaun Ryder, not the pop idol scally Liam Gallagher, not even that is Ian Curtis. No, the ultimate Mancunian icon is that so called miserable git, loved and loathed in disproportionate proportions, Morrissey. Every subject was sacred and when on stage he sang 'I've seen this happen in other peoples lives, now it's happening in mine' I felt my tears that night.

    I've just been on the site and Moz had 37% of the vote with Liam Gallagher on 33%. It's close but Morrissey-solo users should swing it our mans way.

        And at the moment Morrissey is losing to Liam. No offence intended but it's a disgrace...

        Brief Overview
        Morrissey
        Threw flowers,
        Wore unique things (e.g. maternity blouse, hearing aid)
        Had a creative way of performing (e.g. his dancing style)
        Better lyricists.

        Liam
        Stands playing a guitar with some emotion.
        Errmmm...anything else?

                          Ian Brown and Liam Gallagher are neds. Shaun Ryder is a walking disaster as well.
