From David T (a different one):

Here's a particularly trivial Moz reference - the BBC Online news site has a special article up from last week about the M1 Motorway (the UK version of Route 66, perhaps), which refers to the lyrics of "Is It Really So Strange?", amongst various pieces of trivia about the motorway. The motorway, like Morrissey, is now in its 40s.

Excerpt:

  • The M1's service stations have names which have become resonant of the English countryside. Alan Partridge has paid tribute, as has Morrissey, who sang "I left the north again, I travelled south again. . . I lost my bag in Newport Pagnell".
