Steven Patrick Morrissey , conocido por su apellido Morrissey, es un cantante y letrista británico. Vegetariano[1]​ desde los 11 años, acérrimo enemigo de la monarquía británica, conocido por su inusual estilo vocal barítono ,[2]​ su jopo y sus dinámicas actuaciones en vivo. Se declaró célibe y asexual.

Alcanzó la prominencia en la década de 1980 como letrista y vocalista de la banda The Smiths. La banda se separó en 1987 y Morrissey comenzó una carrera como solista. Estuvo entre los diez primeros en el UK Singles Chart en diez ocasiones. Su primer álbum solista, Viva Hate, de 1988, entró en el UK Albums Chart en el número uno.

Es ampliamente considerado como un importante innovador en la escena indie;[3]​ la revista NME lo considera como «uno de los artistas más influyentes», mientras que The Independent dice que «la mayoría de las estrellas pop tienen que estar muertos para alcanzar el estatus icónico que él ha alcanzado en su vida».[4]​ En 2004, Pitchfork Media lo llamó «una de las figuras más singulares de la cultura popular occidental de los últimos veinte años».[5]​

Las letras de Morrissey se han descrito como «dramáticas, sombrías, divertidas viñetas sobre relaciones condenadas, discotecas solitarias, la carga del pasado y la prisión del hogar».[6]​

En octubre de 2014, el cantante reveló que ha luchado contra el cáncer en los últimos meses, motivo por el cual se vio obligado a cancelar algunas de sus presentaciones. [7]​

“Not everybody is absolutely stupid. Why on earth would I be racist, what would I be trying to achieve?”

From the TV documentary The Importance of Being Morrissey (2003)
In interviews etc., About himself and his work

“I could never really make the connection between Christian and Catholic. I always imagined that Christ would look down upon the Catholic church and totally disassociate himself from it. I went to severe schools, working class schools, where they would almost chop your fingers off for your own good, and if you missed church on Sunday and went to school on a Monday and they quizzed you on it, you'd be sent to the gallows. It was like 'Brush you teeth NOW or you will DIE IN HELL and you will ROT and all these SNAKES will EAT you'. And I remember all these religious figures, statues, which used to petrify every living child. All these snakes trodden underfoot and blood everywhere. I thought it was so morbid. I mean the very idea of just going to church anyway is really quite absurd. I always felt that it was really like the police, certainly in this country at any rate, just there to keep the working classes humble and in their place. Because of course nobody else but the working class pays any attention to it. I really feel quite sick when I see the Pope giving long, overblown, inflated lectures on nuclear weapons and then having tea with Margaret Thatcher. To me it's total hypocrisy. And when I hear the Pope completely condemning working class women for having abortions and condemning nobody else… to me the whole thing is entirely class ridden, it's just really to keep the working classes in perpetual fear and feeling total guilt.”

from "All men have secrets and these are Morrissey’s", interview by Neil McCormick,Hot Press (4 May 1984)

“I don't perform. Seals perform.”
