INDIE MUSIC HERO Morrissey turned 54 this week and we’re sure his legion of fans are celebrating worldwide.
Morrissey is seen as famously outspoken and something of a grump but we reckon he’s not that dour at the back of it.
1. He likes to use a tambourine and be joyful
Look how carefree and delighted he seems to be here:

2. He loves to take his top off
And isn’t that the sign of someone who is clearly loving life?

3. He loves to put his hands on his hips
It’s like Morrissey can hear you saying “You seem kind of miserable” and he’s going “No way, girlfriend!”

4. Acting silly with your band is one of his favourite activities
Look at the fun way Morrissey makes his whole band do a slide to one side of the stage at a gig.
Sure, he’s clearly gas craic:

5. He will put a cat on his head
It is a non stop party when Morrissey is around
6. The time he hung out with Rick Astley and it was all smiles
No misery here:
