Morrissey invited to pitch for Eurovision - The Independent

Excerpt:

(...)But it appears the BBC Eurovision production team may have mistaken irony for enthusiasm. A spokeswoman for Sanctuary, Morrissey's record company, said that while they have not had a definitive "no" from the singer, the idea appeared to be, "a non-starter". She added: "He has certainly had an invitation, but we think it is unlikely he will be taking this forward."

The BBC refused to shed further light, saying that matters were at an "early discussion stage" and stressing that Morrissey was only one of several artists and record companies who had been approached.

It is being rumoured that former Smiths front man Morrissey may write the UK's entry for this year's Eurovision Song contest.

The Today programme decided to find out what such a tune may sound like - with a little help from Richard Webb.
