Morrissey has broken his five year Twitter silence in posting his first ever messages on the social networking site.
The Smiths turned solo icon first joined Twitter back in June 2009, but has remained uncharacteristically tight-lipped - until now, posting:
Hello. Testing, 1, 2, 3. Planet Earth, are you there? One can only hope...
— Morrissey (@itsmorrissey) May 14, 2014
He then got all philosophical, adding:
Follow, follow, follow. Twitter is the perfect metaphor for...something. Dunno what.

Meanwhile, Mozza is gearing up to release his long-awaited new album, World Peace Is None Of Your Business - and has just unveiled the deluxe limited edition box set with the vinyl album, CD album, album lithograph and 12 lyric sheets, along with deluxe digital album, an exclusive t-shirt, and a poster featuring fans' names, plus an autographed copy of Morrissey’s Autobiography.
It's worth it all just for the brilliant artwork, check it out below.
World Peace Is None Of Your Business will be released on 14 July. Morrissey is currently touring the US, with UK and European dates expected to be announced shortly.
