Inga - thanks for this lovely response. It's warmed me cockles on a frosty Northern morning. Will try and add another clip of Semisorry before Xmas. Cheers! Len

I presume he's meaning the Webb Pearce..Teenage Boogie..which Marc 'borrowed'

for ;I love to boogie; ??

[LACB2006]

No, he was specifically talking about 'Cosmic Dancer' and the line "I danced myself into the tomb". Have searched high and low but can't find an early rockabilly track that uses similar words. Bet that old Polecat Boz Boorer would know. Cheers, Len

I LOVE this!!! Thank you so much, Len...!

One question: why is the video quality so much less than the first clip? It seems more pixellated.

LOVE YOU for putting these up, bro!!! :)

[LACB2006]

Glad you love it. In terms of the quality, it was shot on a very early DV camera; I'd only used Hi 8 or film cameras before then. But no idea why the quality is not as good as the earlier clip (same tape!). Maybe I just fiddled with something while I was shooting this section of the interview? Will try and post more soon. Best wishes, Len

Very interesting interview it shows the intelligence of the man !

I'm fed up seeing always the same questions : vegeterian sexuality racism etc .... BUT HERE the questions are super interesting and it's so good to see his opinion about T-Rex 'cause I really love them too :)

@jpjames1 No no, the birds sound lovely in conjunction with Morrissey's voice... it's the damn trucks that are a problem!
