'I've got the flavour, the dreaded flavour!'
Micky Flanagan may be pushing 60, but he’s still got it when it comes influencing a younger generation of pop stars.
Harry Styles channeled this spirit of the Cockney comedian on stage at Coachella last week – much to the confusion of the musician’s American fans.
‘I’m in a fantastic mood,’ the former One Direction star told the festival in the Colorado desert. ‘And I've got the flavour, the dreaded flavour!’
The line originates in one of Flanagan’s routines about getting dragged into a drinking session when a night out went out of control. But not that everyone got the reference:
Can someone explain to me what the "dreaded flavour" is? I am still confused

No but I’m still confused by the "I’ve got the flavor, THE DREADED FLAVOR" like wtf was that

However, judging by comments on YouTube, Styles’s proclamation drew some of his fans to Flanagan’s work.
So who told it best, Harry Styles or Micky Flanagan
