Unless Sanctuary does something extraordinarily impressive with its marketing campaign, there is no way that 'Let Me Kiss You' will be a top 10 UK hit. There are several reasons for this:
1) The song is less catchy than 'Irish Blood' and 'First of the Gang" which peaked at #3 & # 6, respectively.
2) If you have purchased the album with DVD, the first single, the second single, and the DVD for the second single, you have spent about $35 on Moz for Quarry or 35 Pounds (about $70 USD, given this "2 part" business and the fact that everything costs more in the UK) so many fans may abstain from spending more on Moz. Of course, if you went to some shows you've spent alot more.
3) As the album is a great success, there is less urgency now to run out and make the next single a big hit.
4) While the b-sides so far for Quarry have been good, I don't see many people saying they were blown away by any of them.
5) While I like the live 'First of the Gang' video, there has not been a proper video of Quarry yet as the 'Irish Blood' video was complete cobblers.
With an artistic video that tells a story and is visually impressive, a creative marketing campaign, some Moz signings for 'Let Me Kiss You', it could all work out fantastically. Otherwise, this song will not be a top 10 UK hit which would be supremely disappointing given the success that Morrissey has experienced lately.
