This Charming Man celebrates his 55th birthday today, no wonder he's miserable now...




Happy birthday Morrissey and lighten up...



That's Sparks not Morrissey, if you hadn't realised.


I was going to leave this post there but I've just found out that Miley Cyrus has covered There's A Light That Never Goes Out...


From the sound of it, her fans weren't overly familiar with the Smiths' oeuvre!

Here's the original for them to educate themselves with...

I love this song and video... "Sparks - "Lighten Up Morrissey" (official video)" on YouTube

Sparks - "Lighten Up Morrissey" 

David Cameron hits back at Johnny Marr

Yesterday I blogged about Johnny Marr's lefty intolerance and the BBC's eagerness to report it as a way of denigrating David Cameron. I hear that David Cameron who is on a visit to India has also responded:

"I've now got Johnny Marr and other members of the band saying I'm not able to listen to the The Smiths... I'm afraid, I will go on and listen to The Smiths."

That David Cameron, he may not stand up to the EU, the Chinese or world dictators but when it comes to taking a firm line with 1980s musos, he's your man.

Happy Birthday Morrissey

The song is of course The Smiths' most excellent "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now"

"Why do I give valuable time to people who don't care if I live or die?"

Damn good question and one that I ask myself quite regularly...



The Smiths' almost as excellent "This Charming Man"



And finally some birthday advice to for the Pope of Mope from the Mael Brothers (Sparks)- "Lighten Up Morrissey"
