Everything is bad in that video, that person sounds like david bowie with 120 years old voice and has no clue whatsoever on how to sing, didnt have a clue about the actual song or its lyrics. Why is this put in here? lol

    You know that bit in The Krypton Factor, the bit at the end where the contestants had to do an army assault course? Well watching this was like that- I wouldn't let myself get turn it off before it finished just to see how far I could get.

    I made it to the end, just. But my eyes and ears are now bleeding. I almost went to this evening and now I'm fucking glad I didn't because I might have been moved to violence by this performance.

    Who the fuck is this cross-dressing cunt anyway? What makes him think he has the right to stand up there and butcher this classic in such a relentless and appauling fashion?!? Why was he dressed up and singing like David Bowie had his brain been removed and replaced with porridge?!? And I don't even like David Bowie!!!

    Scores wise I give this performance 0/10 for humanity, -100 for performance and -1,000,000 for having the sheer AUDACITY to take one of the most beautiful and important songs of Morrissey's long and varied career and DEFECATE ALL OVER IT!!!

    I am incensed. Who let it out of Broadmoor anyway?? Thank you so much for misrepresenting every Morrissey fan on the planet so masterfully, Ladypat. It's arseholes like you that would put back the gay rights movement 20 years. I have nothing against transvestites at all, in fact some of them are more glamourous than women (*cough* Candy Darling) but this kind of behaviour is just horrifying- it belongs in a circus, or should be treated with Ritalin.

    I feel sick.

      Is it me or is that person like a young Frankie Howerd murdering what is one of the greatest songs of all time?
      It's appalling.

        Justin Bond doing the Smiths songs (Score:0)
        I quite like the idea of other people doing Morrissey / Smiths covers but Justin Bond really didn't do the songs any favours. It was just overly camp, trying-to-be dramatic and very very naff. I was actually Squirming throughout the set and wished he'd stop. I do understand that Morrissey means a lot of different things to many different types of people but this is certainly not what he means to me. The best bit of the evening was the Morrissey Puppet-show - very Over the top but it did put a smile on your face. And the DJs (Readers Wifes) of course played a lot of Great Smiths/ Morrissey tunes through-out the night.

          Well I didn't mind the actual performance too much but who took away the editor's medication?

          I don't know what was weirder- the random shaving/ nudiness or the hundreds of contracting swirling Morrissey heads.

            That was absolute crap!!! What in the world do clips from Warhol movies have to do with this song, besides the obvious lame Paul Morrissey/Morrissey link? It's going to take ages before I can listen to it again without thinking of that shite clip! Now I know it's over!

            I cannot believe the narrow minded comments on this subject. If you take the performance in context:a truly fun, exuberant and loving tribute night to one of our true british icons.
            you would not be so vile. Also judgeing from the cheers at the end of the perfomance I'm not the only one who can appreciate a good, honest, fun rendition when I here one. LIGHTEN UP YOU LOT.
            I'm sure morrissey would have loved it!!!!!!!
