Festive 50 1988 Number 13
Dec. 11th, 2016 12:45 pmPatsy Kensit reviewed Morrissey's first single in Smash Hits, saying that she knew suedeheads were skinheads, but this song appears to be about a girl. Oh, Patsy. The video, though, is about James Dean Morrissey posing artfully around James Dean's home town (I didn't know that the tiny child who delivers Le Petit Prince to le Moz is actually his nephew).
As for the music, I presume Morrissey's direction to his musical partners was: Make it sound like a Smiths B-side. It's lovely though and I'm surprised that it's not higher up the FF, given that it got to number 2 on the real chart. Although Morrissey playing the bongos in a field full of cows is a bit much, even for Mozzer.
