Or possibly a matzo.
Mozza on a Matzo has a certain titular ring about it, no?

Can't imagine many of us rushing out to buy this new comp, but the cover's nice, isn't it?

Why is anyone reporting what the sad old racist has to say, thirty years since he last recorded anything half decent. He's free to support Israel, Tommy Robinson, whoever, but we'd all be better not hearing him ever again.
Like fast-moving clouds casting shadows against a hillside, the melody-loop shuddered with a sense of the sublime, the awful unknowable majesty of the world.

I don’t know it’s probably something to do with betrayal isn’t it?
He was - or so it seemed - a champion of the underdog, the downtrodden and the wretched (perhaps not the last one, I just like that word a lot).
He seems to have swapped sides.
Mind you there was always the Bengali in Platforms side to his character.
I've been talking about writing a book - 25 years of TEFL - for a few years now. I've got it in me.

Re: Mozza
Oh I think he still sees himself as championing the underdog i.e. the (white) working classes but sadly he's disappeared down the rabbit hole in doing so.
The signs were always there I guess but personally I always took his statements with a degree of irony and knowing provocation. I think most of us did.

Re: Mozza
It's the self pity mixed with self importance which has always characterized Morrissey, then and now.

In the past there was self-deprecation as well as self-pity, which made him likeable and different. He spoke for many. He could be very witty, too.
But yeah, today there's a kind of arrogance and a distinct lack of humour. I suppose it happens to the best of us.
