[QUOTE="Famous when dead, post: 1987206178, member: 6607"]A 7" was made - 500 only. Morrissey references this version [URL='https://www.metro.us/entertainment/qa-with-this-charming-man-himself-morrissey-richard-branson-weighs-in/tmWljc---20D4wpnunYFHk']here[/URL]: "Do you still find inspiration in contemporary singers and songwriters? If so, could you possibly share a line from a recent song that has made you consider it at length and come to the conclusion that this person or this act has real talent? [I]“I think that when you die you might die without ever having been alive,” sings Kristeen Young on “Fantastic Failure.” She’s not wrong. [/I] Stars do a great version of “Asleep,” Jeff Buckley does a pretty, if not too “Hallelujah”-ish “I Know It’s Over” and Zee Avi does a stunning “First of the Gang.” I’m guessing you’ve heard all of these, but is there a cover of one of your songs that has particularly moved you? [I] Yes, I’ve heard and love all of these versions, but the one that made my head spin for days was Thelma Houston’s “Suedehead,” partly because the British press were adamant that my songs could never appeal to anyone with dark skin. Oh, the comments we’re forced to endure ..."[/I] (Pat Healy, Metro US, Oct., 2012) Regards, FWD.[/QUOTE]
