Having heard a press copy of the forthcoming Morrissey singles boxset (9 CDs from "My Love Life" to "Sunny" 1991-95), there is 1 unreleased track of sorts. The "We Hate It When Our Friends Become Successful" single has an extra live track not featured on its original UK release.

It's a version of "Pregnant For The Last Time" and it is absolutely PHENOMENAL. It rocks, a frantic rockabilly blast that actually eclipses the single version. You won't believe how goddamn hard it is, I had it on repeat ten times and was almost giddy with joy.

It's a nice box anyway, even though the bulk of it has been issued before on other compilations, but honestly the live version of "Pregnant.." makes it a must (hope this has whetted everyone's appetite??)! Just a pity he's since stopped playing it live.

According to the "Passions Just Like Mine" discography, the live version of "Pregnant For The Last Time" was included on the UK 12" release, but not the CD. It was included on the US CD release of the single, however.

    Yeah, that's right! The version rocks, but it's no new.... It features at the US CD version, I have it and it's easy to find...

      There's another addition to one of the Discs: As far as I know, 'Hold On To Your Friends' will contain 3 Tracks: 'Hold On to Your Friends', 'Moonriver' and 'Moonriver (Extended)'.

      The Original UK 12" (which btw, was a limited one) as well as the CD5 did only contain 2 Tracks ('Hold On To Your Freinds' and 'Moonriver (Extended)'); 'Moonriver' was only included on the 7".

      Sounds awesome. (Score:1)
      My question is, are the CDs in the single box set being packaged the same way as the original singles were (same covers, etc.) or are they being repackaged especially for the box set?

      I have always thought that "Pregnant" was one of Moz's worst songs. Does anyone else feel this way? I feel that "Striptease" and "Oh, Phoney" blow it away.

        I think "Pregnant for the last time" is a great song i have a live version mp3 from the El Dorado bootleg. Moz mentions it as a new song i thought it was a great Rock-a-billy type song although many find it controversial.
