Ibiza Rocks The Drums Interview - MTV.co.uk

Excerpt:

Q. Morrissey is said to be a huge fan of yours. Do you consider this a compliment?
A. Oh sure, yeah that’s really nice, that’s nice to hear. We consider any fan that likes our music to be giving us a compliment, regardless of their musical past. For me personally, The Smiths were one of my first favourite bands when I was a kid, so it is really cool to know that.

Q. Would you ever consider working with him/collaborating with him?
A. I think that’s one of those things you leave to be it’s own thing. There are some things that you shouldn’t touch you know and that’s probably one of them. We don’t collaborate very often and he doesn’t seem to really either so maybe we can just have dinner some time. Admire from a distance.

An anonymous person writes:
Bay Area punk band Cousin Dale have recorded a cover of Morrissey's "Sing Your Life" and it is one of the most creative, fun and energetic versions of a classic Morrissey song. The song lyrics were even used to title the E.P. with "Words That Rhyme." Take a listen on iTunes or at www.cdbaby.com it is well worth it.
