Incredibly early Smiths radio interview, 1983

[Amy]

Source of the famous "I was there, dying, and he rescued me" remark. One of the earliest Moz interviews, just after they'd been signed.

Yeah, I've edited it and put the direct link instead - perhaps that will work better.

"The Smiths have been in their present form for...eight months". Seems almost surreal now, doesn't it?

Yes...It's amazing

"You get far in life, if you don't think" Morrissey hit the money with that remark. Morrissey was so intelligent and his language is absolutely beautiful in this interview.

Saying that I'm listening to Morrissey with Russell Brand in 2006 and he's just said that he likes watching Emmerdale because it's very simple, it's made me laugh into hysterics!
