Found this on a website:

The whole experience, as every Morrissey related event or gig I go to does, caused me to reflect on fandom - and, more specifically, ‘cult’ fandoms. Morrissey is far from the only cult hero in music, with David Bowie, Richey Edwards and others causing the same amount of fervor and adulation. What quality do these very different men possess that makes people adore them to such a degree?

I think it's a shambolic world we live in when fully grown men can throw all their passion into something like a football team, cry with pride/sadness if they win/fail. Try doing that with a musician and you're called an obsessive.
