Our song for today is this Morrissey/Whyte composition, the closing track from Your Arsenal. A remixed version was released as a single in the US only.
What do we think?
Its Similar to speedway in the sense that it’s a very strong sounding song and both close great albumsIn a way, a weird choice for an album closer, but at the same time not. Never been a huge favorite of mine, but most definitely fun rocker with superb lyrics.
Yeah, but Speedway is epic and thus more fitting to close an album. Tomorrow is just a rocker.Its Similar to speedway in the sense that it’s a very strong sounding song and both close great albums
The video is simple but very effectiveWhat a time it was, when, at the beginning of 1993, at a record fair in a german provincial town (that the allies actually hadn't forgotten to bomb down), I caught an American dealer (Soldier) who had the purple 12" of Tomorrow with him. Since you didn't always read NME or could afford the Melody Maker, you didn't even know that this was a single somewhere on this planet; and then unreleased tracks: madness. The song is so smooth and so powerful, the video so utterly fantastic, that it has a permanent place deep in my heart and is almost impossible to judge objectively. The new, powerful Morrissey was simply a winner in 1992. On all levels.

You would have looked fab in the video Frank. You could have had a little Merch stall in one of the side streets , then Moz comes along and kicks the leg of the table and your Merch goes flying everywhereAfter watching the video, I wanted to be part of a gang.
The punch line of this story would be, that Morriseey is only doing this because I am very attractive and so there is a certain jealousy. But he is with his gang and so I don't start a scuffle. In 1992 there was also no mobile phone to call @Mozmar (main dealer) or the notorious Carlisle thug for help.You would have looked fab in the video Frank.

Correct on all accountsThe punch line of this story would be, that Morriseey is only doing this because I am very attractive and so there is a certain jealousy. But he is with his gang and so I don't start a scuffle. In 1992 there was also no mobile phone to call @Mozmar (main dealer) or the notorious Carlisle thug for help.
Wow, that’s a lot higher than even I thought!In the poll on the Hoffman board it ranked 13th from 264 solo songs.
