Visit www.spinner.com; Zee Avi's full CD is part of the listening party. Her cover of SPM's "First of the Gang to Die" (track 9) can be heard in its entirety.

  • ...I don't think so! It's mediocre, at best!
    It's missing the spunk of the original that only Morrissey can provide.

  • I don't like this style of singing. She needs to get that yawn out and wake up already.

  • ...of the gang to die of boredom! How drab/lame. Do people justify covers only by the fact that they memorized the lyrics? Again, I am reminded of that butcher-job that the one bedroom band did of "I Won't Share You."

  • she kind of missed the mood of the song.. I mean she sings the very sharp and acidic lyrics of the song as if they were written by James taylor..
    but it is kind of charming that she wanted to make this song a part of her self titled cd.
