    Steve Wright is an overbearing imbecile.

    A big deal (Score:2, Insightful)
    Morrissey is has flung himself between so many stages and studios this year there's always a risk we'll get used to him appearing in the most unlikey places (CD:UK for goodness sake - an impossible image eight months ago), but being interviewed by Steve Wrong is incredible news if true - which it probably is.

    We've all seen the pic from about 1985 of Moz wearing a 'Hang The DJ' T-Shirt featuring Wright. The whole 'Panic' thing has to be brought up because I imagine this will be the first time he and Morrissey have spoken since then, if ever. That in itself is fascinating.

    Perhaps more importantly, millions and millions and trillions and gillions of people listen to Radio 2 at that time in the afternoon so it's great publicity. He seems to really be pushing 'Jesus' - I imagine he's really really really wanting a fourth Top 10 single.

    It does still seem strange though. Obviously Santuary and Moz's personal management organise things like this and he just seems so willing to play along and do what's asked of him these days. It's a sure sign he not only trusts Sanctuary but is actually grateful to them.

    Back to the Wright interview though - it obviously won't be anything like as good as the Janice long session (he does like his Janice) but I hope in light of Wright obviously being a bit of a twat and doubtless asking him stupid questions he doesn't get all cagey again like on Jonathan Ross. There's a risk of that but this new P.R. friendly Moz will no doubt appreciate there's about 3-4 million people listening and turn it on.

    Can't wait!

      It should be very interesting....

        Not too chuffed about Moz doing things like this. Janice excellent;Skinner,questionable;Ross initially good choice if a bit dodgy-post interview, oh dear...what's next Wogan?...maybe this time he'll turn up for that this time??

          What a twat Steve Wright is, can't say I've listened to him for about 15 years, and have no intention of tuning in to him anytime before dying. Is he still as mind numbingly unfunny as ever and does he still have his POSSE, (what a cunt), of sychophantic arse lickers who laugh every time he says something.
