Amazing news for those in LA. Nancy's version of LMKY was just wonderful as were the backing vocals but the production and musical arrangement were just stunning.

You lucky things !

Maybe will get a duet with Morrissey & Nancy.

I'm sure she's a nice lady and all but please don't let her be the support at Earl's Court. I don't think I could bear her syrupy sycophancy.

Wow, they're sure giving her publicity.
Album not selling too well then?

Not that I have anything against Ms. Sinatra, I just think it's a weird choice. What about Yanni, Zamfir, John Tesh?

I quite like her voice, although I have never heard her live. She is one of those types of people that seem to exude kindness . . . to me, at least - like one's kindly aunt. However, something worries me: does she actually write her songs or their lyrics? It seems strange that the only song of hers that anybody has gotten excited about recently was written by Morrissey, and then there are those other ones by Jarvis Cocker, and some others whose names escape me. Did she write 'Boots'?

Dis is yah fuh-st time opening fuh yah buddy. Don't make any mistakes! Yah woulda done much bettah in New Yawk, but hey, dat's life!

I was hoping there would be a better opening act, like when the Killers did it...Sorry, but I don't enjoy her version of LMKY. I don't get why she did it to begin with if the song is so new...couldn't they at least pick a classic? Although I think her voice is far too manly and I don't think she's much of a talent...

Guess when you have connections you can do anything...

I saw Nancy over the summer at Randall's Island in NYC as part of Little Steven's Underground Garage Festival (brought to us by Dunkin' Donuts). She wasn't bad but she wasn't too hot, either. Her set bounced from the 1960s to 2004 and there didn't seem too smooth a transition between the tunes. For instance, the new tune written by Sonic Youth (which sounds a lot like Nico) sung between one of her Lee Hazlewood collaborations and another of her older numbers seemed awkward, contrived, and insincere. LMKY sounded good, but I can think of other Moz-written tunes that are better. These Boots Were Made For Walking however, was brilliant and always sounds good...it might even be worth it for that song alone.

And don't forget that Nancy Sinatra is definitely one of the most attractive geriatrics on the face of the earth. She's much better looking than a ton of women 40 years her junior.

Where did I read (I think it was a recent Nancy interview posted on this site) that she said Morrissey came to her with 'Let Me Kiss You' saying that if she wanted a Top 20 hit she should release this and it would happen.

Well, it didn't. Do you reckon she and Sir had to have a little chat in the kitchen one day last week?! Poor Moz - there's no reason he couldn't re-launch Nancy aside from the apparent shrugging of shoulders amongst the public. I personally don't own either her single or the album, couldn't find them.

The day the single was released, my HMV was all out of the Nancy single (a good thing) so I got the James Maker and Remma ones. But it never resurfaced. I wonder how she feels about giving a certain amount of career control over to Moz?

so does the mean that damien dempsey got bumped?

anyone need orchestra tickets? contact me by email...i cant make the show, so ill sell them for what i got em for...

[email protected]

I need to get rid of them, I cant make it to the show, which sux for one and the second thing is that I need to get rid of them, I'm asking for 55 per ticket ... well less than what I paid for. I'm willing to meet up for the cash and tix exchange. e-mail me at Mike_LB_98@yahoo or [email protected]

could anyone help as to who will be supporting moz at Brighton arena 17/12?

I think it's great Morrissey supports Nancy this way, but to be honost, I think her music is mediocre at best.

These Boots is brilliant, but that's about it. And as far als Let Me Kiss You is concerned: no surprise that single didn't sell. Nothing to do with marketing, it's just horrible.

I don't get why so many people on this site think Nancy is great. Just because Mozzer likes her?

If tomorrow Morrissey decides to become muslim, will we all change our name to Mohammed?

"Start spreading the news, I'm leaving today,
I want to be a part of it, New York, New York"

...know who'll support Moz at Dublin on December 20.

Are you really surprised she's opening for Moz? I just saw her Friday at Bimbo's (haha) in SF, and while it wasn't the best show I'd ever seen it was certainly entertaining and I enjoyed hearing her new collaborations with Jarvis, THurston Moore, Bono, and of course Moz. I thought her version of LMKY sounded identical to Moz's (I'd never heard it before). Oh and right before she played the song, she introduced it as being written by "her mentor, Morrissey" and during the song there was a slide show of pics of her and Moz! I think I may have been one of only like 5 people in the audience who knew who he was!

This is where Ive found it and most tracks are great, especially the song Pete Yorn wrote. Good album but not the best of the year. Makes the bottom five of a top ten in my opinion. By the way, Let me Kiss You has all of the gang playing, not a hired out lame entourage.

That's where she belongs!
I read a while back she needed helping onto the stage in London or someplace.
Give it a rest you old fart.

Yes cool. I read in people magazine that she knew who Morrissy was, because her teenage daughter had a 6 foot tall poster of him in her bedroom. Her daughter was a big Smiths fan.
