I saw a documentary about Elton John years ago when he described the process of songwriting for him in which Bernie Taupin would send him lyrics and he would sit and put them to music. This is the complete opposite to Morrisseys approach where he puts his lyrics to music given to him. It struck me that wouldn't it be interesting for Morrissey to give Elton John some of his lyrics and see what would come out (or visa versa).
Not likely to happen anytime soon as i recall Morrissey saying at a concert in London years back "bring me the head of Elton John" and i,m sure he said in interview once that the world is full of crashing bores was about people like Elton John. Strange that later when trying to get something together for Morrisseys meltdown in 2002 he had asked Elton to do a set of Jobraith covers which was not responded to. Not like Morrissey to piss someone off.
