I agree with the positive comments regarding California Son.
 
Tough to rate these ones. I based my ratings on what I feel about the original and Morrissey’s cover version. Sort of a combined thing.

To be honest, some of those originals are just awful. Moz did the world a great service by covering them in his own inimitable style.

Yeah, he does not pick the best or most interesting songs to cover.

So you're only scoring 6 out of 21?
Yes, Mozmar, because I never listened to the others, or just gave them a distracted listen. I don't care much of covers. I even never bought California Son. I voted only the ones I know well.
