A radio edit (3:14) has circulated unofficially circa 2007. | |||
Excerpt from the [[Mozipedia]] (US version) entry: | |||
<blockquote> | |||
..Its only facet of interest was Morrissey's crafty choice of opening sample, 'Go on!': the voice of a young [[Mention::Martin Sheen]] in the pivotal father/son confrontation scene from the 1968 film of Frank D. Gilroy's ''[[Mention::The Subject Was Roses]]''. | |||
</blockquote> | |||
Note: [[Mention::David Tseng]] identified this sample (uncredited) to the author of Mozipedia, [[Mention::Simon Goddard]] in conversation before this item was published. davidt: I had watched the film on Morrissey's personal recommendation several years previously and noticed the sample. | |||
