Kewpie sends the link to the post in the forums by joe frady (via Morrissey reddit):
'Something Is Squeezing My Skull' Single
Janice Long just played 'Something Is Squeezing My Skull' and back announced it as "that's the new single from Mmmmorrissey!" Sounds bloody good on the radio by the way.
Later on Janice's show she had VV Brown live in session and she did a cover of 'This Charming Man' accompanied by acoustic guitars and keyboards. The keyboardist did Marr's guitar lines rather cutely. The sole point of interest though was a lyric change as Ms.Brown implores 'why tantalise complexities when the leather runs smooth on the passenger seat ?' Reading it back now it actually works quite well, sounded silly at first. Have to i-player it I think.

Will Morrissey make it to Pittsburgh this time? - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Thursday, March 12, 2009
By Scott Mervis, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
To draw a rather unlikely comparison between four metal gods and one of rock's great male divas, having a ticket for a Morrissey concert in Pittsburgh the past two decades was a lot like having a Led Zeppelin ticket back in the day.
They weren't worth the paper they were printed on.

magnetmag writes:MAGNET Magazine picks the five most overrated and underrated Smiths songs:
The Over/Under: The Smiths
MAGNET senior editor Matthew Fritch once camped out for 13 hours to have Morrissey sign his copy of the “Interesting Drug” single; this was topped only by a more dignified encounter with Johnny Marr. He is closing in on Andy Rourke and Mike Joyce even as he types out the five most overrated and five most underrated Smiths songs.

which pretty much makes me a Morrissey Fan. A while back I made that comment. I substituted the word girlfriend for wife because the person who was my girlfriend is now my wife.
