Video of the Moment #2455: Morrissey

To call Morrissey polarising is oversimplifying his enduring influence and image. However, it is also a single word that seems to fit the famous Mancunian curmudgeon all too well. On the 17th of November next month, the so-called ‘Pope of Mope’ will be releasing ‘Low in High School’, his newest long player, on BMG. Naturally, the video for ‘Spent the Day in Bed’ sees him sneering, oddly from the comfort (er…) of a pushchair. It was filmed at the 142-year old Peckham Liberal Club and directed by famed music video director Sophie Muller, and it ends on an ominous note. Stay tuned for ‘Low in High School’; a limited edition clear 7″ vinyl of the ‘Spent the Day in Bed’ will also be available from October 27 on.
