Morrissey Favorite 45s

[Buzz]

A long time ago I came across an interview with MOrrissey where he discussed two of his prized 45s being a song called "Good Grief Christina" by Chicory Tip (apparently him and Marr traveled across the country to find it) and another track called "When You Know Why You're Happy" by Mary Margaret O'Hara (Later of November Spawned fame). Does anyone happen to have these songs that they could post? It would be interesting to hear them but I imagine they are very rare if even Moz had a tough time tracking them down back in the 80s. Would be an interesting treasure hunt though.

Thanks!

Yes, that MMo'H album is indeed wonderful (although I seem to have lost my copy).

As for "Good Grief Christina": I hope Morrissey was joking, because that is one of the most horrible things ever trusted unto vinyl.

oh come on, now we're dying to hear that nightmare on wax

also must be mentioned following Moz fave 7 inchers:
the Tams - Be Young, Be Foolish, Be Happy
the Paper Dolls - Something Here In My Heart
the Crystals - All Grown Up
Cilla Black - The Right One Is Left
and of course Diana Dors - So Little Time
