Rolling Stone - Sinatra Walks With Morrissey

Excerpt:

The Morrissey collaboration, "Let Me Kiss You," is being tipped for early release as a U.K. single. Morrissey, an encyclopedic Sinatra enthusiast, recorded the music and his vocal and sent it to Sinatra, who then added her own vocal. "A few of my songs have made it through the years," says Sinatra, whose hits include "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'," "Some Velvet Morning" (with Lee Hazlewood) and "Somethin' Stupid" (with father, Frank), "and most of the rest bit the dust. Except with Morrissey. He seems to know and love them all. And this song is very much a Nancy/Morrissey song. It's gorgeous and beautiful and romantic and lovely."

Sinatra says that the song is not recognizable as a Morrissey original . . . until its kicker, when he responds to an earlier line of "Close your eyes and think of someone you physically admire" with "You open your eyes and find someone you physically despise." "If it weren't for him singing and playing, you wouldn't know," she says, "until that line. The last line gives it away."

    Nancy & Morrissey - very sweet (Score:0)
    This was one the sweetest articles written on Moz. Remember the new Managing Editor of Rolling Stone, Mr. Ed Needham (it was posted here) said that "Morrissey was part of his Holy Trinity." I think that connection if you will, his love for Moz...shined through. I believe that there are more articles on Moz to come in RollingStone. Just you wait & see!

          does anyone know comercial value of nancy? i always assumed she was a rather big name. is she or has her star faded to much? just wondering if this will be a big mainstream hit. it would be most sureal if it got to number one in america.

          ....but most amusing.

            Ah, so Morrissey's vocals are on the track, I thought he just wrote it.

            it's worth listening to now.

              Do you suppose it will remind us of the Carpenters? I think Morrissey might have a secret penchant for the Carpenters. I think Morrissey is very nostalgic, and he would have a grand time with classic AM radio.

                Why the hell can't Morrissey record a duet with the other person in the same studio? This is what he did with Siousxie as well. Dude's got complexes.

                But I love him.
