I Want My MTV - Morrissey walks - Ear Farm

Watching the music video for Morrissey's most recent single ("All You Need Is Me"), it occurred to me that something felt oh so very familiar about it... the outstretched arms? The tambourine? Mozzer surrounded by boys? Yes those, okay, sure. But more than that, it's the walk. Morrissey singing and walking towards the camera: the most basic of Morrissey music video tactics. How many other videos of his can you name that feature this overplayed action-infusing device?? I came up with a total of eight...

Yes, it is true. He does have a very specific walk. But isn't it lovely?

Because he's got a perfect walk, amongst everything else, it's only fitting that he shows it to the world. We can only observe and admire his poetry in motion! His beauty can reduce me to tears, and often does. Amen to that.
