Nice! I really enjoyed his narration of “The Importance of Being Morrissey.”Last night I started reading (or, listening to the audiobook of) Christopher Eccleston's memoir "I Love the Bones of You" - there's lots of detail in the early pages about being shaped by Salford, which then morphs into a few encounters in later life with some of his Mancunian heroes, including Paul Scholes and Morrissey. Eccleston relates chatting to a producer in a cafe when they see Morrissey on Deansgate. Eccleston is encouraged to go and talk to him:
I got on my bike and followed him. He'd just walked up to Waterstones.
"Excuse me, Morrissey."
"Oh, hello." [In the audiobook, Eccleston does a wonderful Morrissey voice.]
"My name's Chris Eccleston."
"Yes, I know."
"Oh, right...I just want to say thank you." I stuck my hand out. He shook it.
"No, no," he said. "Thank you." And walked off.
I'm fairly sure it was a more remarkable experience for me than it was for him, and the reverse anecdote doesn't appear in his own autobiography. But the significance of Morrissey knowing who I am will never be lost on me.
It's a really, really lovely book - am about a third of the way through it so far.
Jesse Tobias also played with AM's touring band for a while.Morrissey mentioned again in another Alanis Morissette article.
"Co-written with Michael Farrell, who’s known for his work with Morrissey, the song was initially meant for Jagged Little Pill the Musical on Broadway."
