Morrissey interview in The Phoenix / Boston

"At first you acknowledge that the artist's view is wider than your own, otherwise you would not be entranced by them.
The second stage is normal despondency because they haven't actually noticed you on a personal level.
The third stage is assassination.
It all amounts to a particularly poor form of love."

Great interview! Well-written questions with -- as with the news.com.au piece -- just the right about of humour to keep Morrissey interested.

I really think these recent e-mail interviews are so much better than the spoken ones of recent years. It lets the Mozfather answer more like he did in the old days.

"I've actually been shot at 43 times. And then people say, "You're looking tired. . . ." Brilliant!
