More Diana references


A bit more than a reference this, the compilation 'The Smiths - Singles' features Diana in a famous scene from Yield To The Night.

Morrissey has often stated Diana as one of his heroes. He once said this:

"She had the sexiest voice in world history. She is just a fantastic British figure and because she was so overtly sexual she was always underrated as an actress. She was decades before her time in standing up and saying, 'Yes, I enjoy sex', but her private life was over-recorded by the papers and it did not tally that someone so flamboyant could have depth too. This is Diana Dors' best recording: very sexual, very heaving, sort of string-drenched and very beautiful. You want to nestle in her bosom."

He also put on her fantastic record, 'So Little Time' on the documentary about him, 'Importance of Being Morrissey'.

he also remarked in an interview:

"And over the toilet is a signed portrait of Diana Dors. "Some people find it hard to go when someone's looking" says Morrissey. "But not me."
