Oh my god, this lad has to be the most precious thing ever.

this checks all three of my happiness boxes: things that are elegant, things that confuse me and things that contain Morrissey

[@susancunningham7933]

Very sweet and funny

[@sarahl8506]

Young Morrissey is gorgeous 😍😍😍

[@Stu-The-Cue]

Oh my God, Meat Is Murder sounds fucking amazing live

[@mini_mozzer]

[@m.s.7756]

I cannot get over the way this woman rolls her Rs when she says "Morrissey". what a delightful sound

[@user-ev1uo7sb8n]

i love at how 13:50 that bloke kisses him and lifts his left leg up while he’s at it

[@mini_mozzer]

pure romance in the essence of mozzer

this is prob the best morrissey interview

[@AnthonyMonaghan]

Good God...I remember this like it was yesterday. Margi and Moz strolling through the heather. Morrissey on Brookside. Those were golden days. How amazing they sounded live.

[@spartan876]

this is the best morrissey video i've seen from the eighties. and I think i've seen most

[@brokenbiscuits4077]

It's like a drug. I need help.

[@heekyungkim8147]

Morrissey looks quite happy back then....

[@tefilobraga]

One reason is probably because he was young and handsome. Pretty understandable...

[@dean8705]

Stuff like this makes me wish I experienced the 80's.

morrissey, a very strange cat indeed. but goddamn is he adorable...

[@iamthewalruscuckookachoo1372]

I forgot Margo did this interview with Morrissey on the tube. Whenever i seen her acting in a programme it always bugged me where i had seen her before.

[@DarlinJacq]

He is as beautiful here as He was when We met but then, on December 8, 1986, I turned 16 and became His 'Girlfriend In A Coma' (the day after graduating Modeling School of all days) and My mind and My existence drifted from Him... but then, when I was 19, I had a really close friend named Jon K who shared "Ask" while driving Me home from school one day in his Volkswagen Thing and My love for Him took over My life again. Almost everyone who knows Me, even myy newly acquired friends, know how totally and completely and utterly smitten I AM with Him🐐🙏👑😽🐱😻👑🌻🐄😁🥰🤪🤫👣

[@shtan5583]

I wonder do they remain as friends today or a friendship sadly lost?

[@sunnysyl7]

I ask many young people if they have heard of the Smiths and they havent !!!! Sad I tells you 😢❤️❤️❤️

[@wallacelovecraft8942]

I feel like I've seen this video before but with better visual and sound quality. Good vid though cause it's like a time capsule.

[@flollopy]

What is that at 5:35 that somebody is holding? As there were no mobile phones in 1985

[@Flibbybibby]

@Osc1llate W1ldly LOL

[@reggiekrager5411]

It actually looks like a phone wtf.
