Morrissey has reached the ripe old age of 50 today. Happy birthday Mozza!  

The king of mope has been in the limelight for almost exactly 26 years, starting when The Smiths released 'Hand In Glove' on May 13, 1983, and shows no sign of stopping.

One of the most influential figures in British music, his astute lyrics, inimitable voice and gloriously
miserable demeanour have made him a music legend to his fans.  

The fact that he's not without his detractors cements his cult hero status amongst his hardcore followers.

The celebrate his birthday, Gigwise presents a selection of our favourite Smiths and Morrissey videos, plus some photos of the great man in action. Enjoy.
