Would you have bought the single 'Something Is Squeezing My Skull' if it had come with three intriguingly titled, new, Morrissey-penned b-sides (suggested by Pat)

Absolutely - that's why I buy Morrissey singles.

Probably - but I might have waited for them to appear on a compilation (sooner or later, they always do)

Probably not because b-sides aren't my thing

- Don't complain about lack of options. You've got to pick a few when you do multiple choice. Those are the breaks.
- Feel free to suggest poll ideas if you're feeling creative. I'd strongly suggest reading the past polls first.
- This whole thing is wildly inaccurate. Rounding errors, ballot stuffers, dynamic IPs, firewalls. If you're using these numbers to do anything important, you're insane.

he should have known it would fail...
he puts out way too many singles from his albums anyway...
to us fans that is completely understandable..because all of his tracks are unique and outstanding pieces of work..
but to the public view???
don't know..
also, we've heard this songs since 2006 or so..so how can we be surprised or even really newly enthusiast...
and then with the poorly and not even new b-sides...
we love him to death...
it's just not enough for number ones i guess..
'cause then he needs the rest of the public as well
This poll is oddly worded (Score:1, Insightful)
it doesn't let you say you didn't get it, but... or that you did.
I dunno. It's unclear.

The question now is will there be a new single to repair the damage?
What if the live songs were all on one disc? (Score:0)
new 'b' sides (Score:0)
I've no idea why if Moz had to release another single he didn't include fresh 'b' sides as when the album was being anticipated there were about 4/5 other tracks that were mooted as going to be on it....so where have they gone?
Anyway its all a bit disappointing. I was at the 50th birthday bash at the Manchester Apollo and though it was great to see Moz again I have to say that I was very disappointed in his choice of setlist. Maybe its been done to protect his voice but if he has these voice/health issues he should take a good break before coming back.

would have been a big aprovement,1 new song
and a CDR with the video, or extra video material
would've contacted my friendly cd suplier a week
before release
[as mostly 2,3,4 singles from same albym are UK
only, so cd suplier have to contact his delaer
to look out for that, which not a problem]

sometimes i'll get them of itunes because its
easier, but i do use the recordstore website so i can actually have the disc
I thought the B-sides were reasonable
All three of them have never been played live before in Moz's solo career
which leads me to thinking they are quite a rarity
I would like to see some of the other songs as B-sides
"Action Man"
"Teresa Terasa"
"I Was Bully, Do Not Forget Me"
and various other songs which i'm sure will be used at some point
I reckon there should be one more single, either its not your birthday anymore
or black cloud

I know there are new song titles floating around the internet, but were these songs actually recorded? I don't know.
Maybe Morrissey is looking for a new producer, but hasn't found one yet. Hence the live b-sides.

Grumble, mumble, moan. It ain't what it used to be. Let's have a few random singles a la 'My Love Life', 'Pregnant for the Last Time', 'Heaven Knows', 'William', 'Shakespeare's Sister', 'Ask', and so bloody on.
Also, Skull is fast forward material - it's okay until he starts repeating 'give any more', and one feels he should rename the song 'Something is Squeezing My Vocal Chords'. It's too high for him, as is 'It's Not Your Birthday Anymore'. Probably better live, like 'Shakespeare's Sister' and 'I Want the One I Can't Have'.
Anyone else reckon Mozzer would have voted UKIP? They don't hold with AGW. Fancy!

Priceless photos (Score:1)
Since we are at a lack of record stores now in LA, I've been buying the singles on import via Moz's myspace. I'm thankful that the price for getting all formats together has been relatively cheap.
I think to save paper, maybe Moz should release EPs so he doesn't have to split the songs to share more awesome photos. Records could still be separate, but two editions of the cds...I could do with just one EP-length single release and booklet with the new photos.
The Skull pictures are absolutely hilarious. Moz and the boyz are truly a wallop of fun when you get right down to it. I'll definitely continue buying the singles and fulfill my fetish for cover and sleeve art and credits (yeah, I'm a major nerd).
