I think if I'd met Morrissey in 1989 in a Pub instead of spinning Viva Hate on my turn table, we would have been great friends, instantly, and our friendship would still be going strong today. That's how it goes when you meet people you've got a lot in common with...
If I went to a pub tonight and met him at age 50, and being that I'm 39, I'd find him very attractive and would probably start up a conversation about art or music - because he looks like the type of person you can talk to about those topics. I don't know how he'd feel about me, but I'd really like him (just saying this based on what I know of Morrissey, of course). Morrissey just has an air about him. There's something drawing you to him all the time. I can understand why someone in their 20's would be attracted to him.
And, I'm being honest - whether it's 1983 or 2010 - Morrissey is simply one of the most handsome men (if not the most handsome man) I've ever seen in my life.
