Morrissey Interview on The Tube - 1984

27th of January 1984, Morrissey interviewed (first television interview!) by Tony Fletcher at the Hacienda for the TV programme The Tube. This is where Morrissey famously says "We have an album released on February 20th and I really do expect the highest of critical praise for it. It's a very, very good album. I think it's a signal post in music."
Note the adorable expression at the end.

@1959SPM No problem! Glad you enjoy it.

He was totally wrong about the death of music videos though :\

[Osc1llateW1ldly]

but spot on with the "signal post in music". 1 of the best LP's ever IMO

Extremely intelligent man. Really well spoken and quick.

He was not wrong about the death of music videos.

I don't watch the music videos of the bands that I see live on the television. I watch them for free on the internet.

MTV and VH1 dont even play music videos anymore.

[ihatemondays971]

Every video I watch...I fall slightly...more in love with this man. He's so honest and brilliant in every way.

Morrissey, ever the shrinking violet, or should I say gladiolus.

[FlowersForFirth]

Morrissey is soooo cute in this interview! Even now that he is 52, I still think he's the sexiest man of ALL time.

@FreudsteiNekro

All I know is, he evokes feelings in me that no other man has ever. Or person really.
