Morrissey - Admittedly loathed by many, as front man of The Smiths Morrissey has been behind some of the best acid-tongued lyrics of the past two decades. He’s said some dubious things in recent times, but musically he’s relevant and important. Although he’d probably refuse a knighthood hands down, but it would be damn hilarious if he was offered.

- Brian May should be added in there. And Freddie Mercury even though he's dead.

- Ray Davies should be knighted. He is already CBE but stands out above all of the people mentioned in this article as a consistently brilliant songwriter.

- all this worry about knighthoods!!Sir Paul Mcartney,Sir Elton John...............Come on! I am a Yank in Kentucky for all ****s sake! I KNOW who deserves the queens honor... people like Ray Davies (first because he NEVER EVER sold out of being ENGLISH) and what a ****in' talent,Eh?? Second would be Roger&David from Floyd,then Pete and Roger, then all the GREAT NEW STUFF like Blur

- AHAHAHA
morrissey
:')
i think the queen is dead pissed on any chance of a knighthood

- I think Johnny Rotten should be knighted, he should accept it and do a scandal at the ceremony.
