Today I learned that KUPS will be receiving a copy of Morrissey's new greatest hits album. The collection has been out in the UK since February and is now being released in the US.
There was a contest in January for Moz enthusiasts to send pictures representing their devotion and have them placed in adverts for the release.
The questions included:
HOW DO YOU SHOW YOUR DEVOTION TO MORRISSEY?
HAVE YOU ANY MORRISSEY TATTOOS? HAVE YOU EVER GRAFFITI'D MORRISSEY'S NAME ON A WALL? DO YOU OWN AMAZING MORRISSEY MEMORABILIA?
WE'RE LOOKING FOR IMAGES OF YOUR DEVOTION FOR POSSIBLE INCLUSION IN THE NEW MORRISSEY GREATEST HITS ALBUM ADVERT.
PLEASE SEND HIGH-QUALITY JPG IMAGES TO: morrisseyadvert[at]googlemail.com
BE QUICK, WE MUST RECIEVE ALL ENTRIES BY 19 JANUARY 2008.
I was not too impressed with the Greatest Hits line-up:
01 First of the Gang to Die
02 In the Future When All's Well
03 I Just Want to See the Boy Happy
04 Irish Blood, English Heart
05 You Have Killed Me
06 That's How People Grow Up
07 Everyday Is Like Sunday
08 Redondo Beach
09 Suedehead
10 The Youngest Was the Most Loved
11 The Last of the Famous International Playboys
12 The More You Ignore Me, the Closer I Get
13 All You Need Is Me
14 Let Me Kiss You
15 I Have Forgiven Jesus
While I do agree that his version of "Redondo Beach" is the greatest thing since mp3 players, most of these tracks are from his last two albums. I think it's kind of lame, even for Mozzer, to make a collection out of two recent albums that have not been forgotten by anyone who would actually spend money for this.
If you'd like to read more, and who could resist, I got all my information from here.

I guess the worst part is that Ringleader wasn't a very good album at all... and that picture of Mozzer has to be at least a decade old.
