This was played in Manchester. It's a good effort.

        Morrissey's support acts have always been dreadful - with 1 or 2 exceptions. Doll & The Kicks are a dull "university" band....the singer just tries too hard to be theatrical and "interesting". Very very boring stuff. They'll be forgotten by next year...

        The music's gorgeous, but the dual vocal on the chorus almost ruins it.

          the original (Score:0)
          Was the original not good enough for them? I don't get it, really. This whole circus is sicker than I thought it is. Why on earth would somebody give another person a cover version of his own song as a birthday present? If they had at least given him a song of their own as present. But no, they used one of his, then mention this cover everywhere and even get it played on the radio. What is their intention? They are downright audacious. I am with Paul Van Dyck in all this. Not surprising that Morrissey gets depressed if he continously harms himself and even puts this song on before his concert and lets it being given to the radio. Being supportive and thankul can go a bit too far, it has definitly in this case. Does he want to sell his own music or that of others? The original was perfect as it was! Keep your hands off it! Jesus, help him, please.
