    Morrissey asked my cousin where he was from. He answered Compton, which to Morrissey replied"Oh, so you're straight outta Compton aye?"[QUOTE from Ready With Ready-Wit;830350]

    Maybe the head honchos of the H&M corporation are Moz fans and force the employees in all their stores to play him.

    If so, they are my kind of people.

    Must be 'High Fidelity'.

    I'm still jealous that one of my friends who went to watch High Fidelity at Odeon Leicester Square when film was released.
    She spotted Ralph Finnes in the lobby, later he sat next to her!

    "Sountracking A Movie"
    NPR interview with 500 Days of Summer director Mark Webb. Click "Listen Now."

    The director basically says that Morrissey is viewed by many as "the voice of heartbreak" and that the Zooey character's love of The Smiths is "ominous" because if a girl loves The Smiths as much as you do, you know where the relationship is heading

    Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want plays beautifully in the background.

    Ben Sheppard reviewing the new Harry Potter film on ITV has just uttered the line; "There's panic on the streets of London"

    Jools Holland: "Knock Knock!"
    Morrissey: "I'm not in!"
    Jools: "Oh, come on."
    Morrissey: "I refuse to open the door."

    Had 2 unusual references today!
    Was at the Barnes and Noble in Pueblo, Colorado, and saw this gift for sale:

    http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/...9661_365769_-1

    Doesn't our Moz simply despise Jamie Oliver? Interesting choice of slogan Jamie!

    Was reading the silly book I bought at Barnes and Noble called Momzillas, and to show the main characters despair over a bad break-up she listens to The Smiths.

    Always something there to remind me

    I just saw a play called 'Deceptions' which mentioned The Smiths and Morrissey in one of the scenes, and also played Smiths songs at every scene change. Perked me up no end.

    Article titled, Sounds of “Summer”, in today’s RedEye paper.


    500 Days of Summer could become this year’s “Garden State” and that has a lot to do with the soundtrack.

    It includes a cover of The Smith’s “Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want” by the band She & Him, which includes the film’s co-star, Zooey Deschanel.

    “We had the choice of a number of different songs, and we chose that Smiths song,” Deschanel told Entertainment Weekly, “I appreciate a songwriter like Morrissey with so much restraint.”

    The soundtrack includes Smiths miserablism and cheesy selections, such as Patrick Swayze’s “She’s Like the Wind,” which isn’t a criticism. You may not see all these songs on the album soundtrack, but listen for them in the film.

    Us – Regina Spektor
    There is a Light That Never Goes Out – the Smiths
    The Boy with the Arab Strap – Belle & Sebastian
    Bad Kids – Black Lips
    Have I Been a Fool? – Jack Penate
    There Goes the Fear – the Doves
    You Make my Dreams – Hall & Oates
    Knight Rider theme
    Sweet Disposition – Temper Trap
    Quelqu’un M’a Dit –Carla Bruni
    Veni, Vidi, Vici – Black Lips
    The Music – Paper Rourke
    Mushaboom – Feist
    Hero – Regina Spektor
    Infinite Pet – Spoon
    Bookends – Simon & Garfunkel
    Vegabond – Wolfmother
    She’s Got You High – Mumm-Rah
    Every Rose has its Thorns – Poison
    Sugar Town – Nancy Sinatra/Lee Hazelwood as performed by Zooey Deschanel
    Here Comes Your Man – the Pixies
