Go To


  • When The Smiths performed on the Old Grey Whistle Test in 1986, Morrissey wore a fake hearing aid to support a fan who was hearing-impaired but ashamed to wear one.
  • "Ask" can qualify. As Rob Sheffield pointed out, it's basically Moz saying that maybe he was wrong in his interpretation of love and that sometimes it's okay to be shy.
  • Marr once met up with Morrissey. While they both obviously had thoughts on reuniting with the Smiths, Marr acknowledged there wasn't any animosity between him and Moz. Marr even admitted the two were having good old times, even after the first meeting. While he admits they did stop talking about that, it does give some implications both Marr and Moz are at least on good terms.
  • Following Andy Rourke's passing in May 2023, Johnny Marr posted a heartfelt tribute to his lifelong friend on Instagram.
    "Well done Andy. We’ll miss you brother."
