Morrissey - We hate it when our friends become successful

[Jlipnicki]

yet he became rather successful, does he hate himself ? Or maybe is not friends with himself.

[trimmytrab]

This song prophesies the rise of the Facebook, when the first thing we do when we add a new friend or are added is check out what they do and then get a bit jealous when they are the MD of a firm in London and you are still an unemployed shop worker in Sunderland.

[spameister]

@trimmytrab Morrissey isn't Mystic Meg.

'Unemployed shop worker' is an oxymoron.

[trimmytrab]

@spameister yeah, good point

[Darkrose40]

This is the version that pwnz

[phantasMoon69]

Morrisey is just.... INTOXICATING

[garfreeek]

I only kn ow the reel big version... This was a pleasant surprise ^_^

morrissey writes some amazing songs!

[FudgeYouVideos]

fantastic song, i enjoy reel big fish's also because it shows a fast paced version. like when smooth criminal by michael jackson was redone by alien ant farm, both fantastic styles and yet so different.

[misskill3r]

oh! duh, no wonder why is voice is familiar.

[almonacid9]

The smiths and Morrissey , the world know them. the ppl that hear good music!!!!!! the other ppl....is sad but not.........the other side of the world

[CharlieSmigz]

Morrissey is a true original. Brits lead the world in great music.

[mmyyppaarrttyy]

@CharlieSmigz we lead the world in everything! :P

[JulietheQueen]

The vocalist looks like Elvis Presley wannabe LOL

[Cynicor]

@JulietheQueen First time you've ever heard of Morrissey or The Smiths, huh? (sigh)

[JulietheQueen]

yes, I didn't know them, you can't know everything can you xD

[Adriansh3r0]

Haha :D Watching a Morrissey vid and talking about 'the vocalist' like you're talking about a background singer ^^

[JulietheQueen]

It is because I found this video accidently, I really didn't know that it is that big lol. I'm glad though, really good band as far as I know by now. Maybe it is because I'm not from the UK that's why I haven't heard about it before.

[BrandonsVictim]

aww man,i love morrisseys laugh :)

[CyberCowboyZombie]

i like reel big fish but morrisey is better

[jarrahpridham1]

not really he seems bored

reel big fish doesnt

[CrazzeeAbnormal]

I think I prefer the Reel Big Fish version. It's just...a lot more entertaining, I don't know how to explain it. Still, excellent song.

[MisterMarshmallow]

It doesn't sound like he really cares about what he's singing... Check out the Reel Big Fish version.

[HUNK0004]

the band rell big fish version is better

[ShannonVenasse]

great song but it's annoying when he looks like he's bored on stage.

[marsharse]

just morrissey for ya

[hofsteveO]

Gary Day on Guitar???

[umbrellaeinheit]

Yep, your right, idk what those freaks think on that.

[maccantuono]

GREAT SONG

MORRISSEY NUMBER ONE

[curealex705]

esa mamada de "reel big fish" no le llega ni a los talones a la voz de Morrissey

MOrrissey es la mejor voz q he oido en toda mi vida

[TheSaintHooker]

lol- "and if they're northern that makes it even worse", poor northerners!

[fatograph]

This is the guy on the children's show LAZYTOWN!

[jarrahpridham1]

you are a pirate ?

[Hawkfrost18]

personally i like the RBF version better... they add that certain style.

[n8dogg87]

The Reel Big Fish version works, I think, because the lyrics seem to fit the general attitude most of their other songs have. Sarcastic, bitter, mean, but upbeat sounding in the melody.

It was a good choice for RBF to cover this tune.

[mothafuckajones666]

@n8dogg87

Um, clearly you are unaware of everything The Smiths did. Shit, that was a pretty stupid comment you made, you just went full retard.

[kittehLORDZ]

I personally perfer reel big fish but this song is also good for cooling down and chill xD cause it not as intensely fun as the other one IMO no hating!

[darkarrow3]

the reel big fish version is more fitting for the lyrics honestly. But this is still cool.

[HendrixSpirit]

any tabs of this song?

[jackassjono]

why does he add echo to it...its sounds sortagay.....i prefer reel big fish's version...but im not one to judge

[plush1979]

aaaahhh ha ha hahahahaaaa haha ha ha hahahahaha jajajaja its funny

[woodiestv]

Too many arguments, just enjoy the music, go and buy the album support the artist, if you don't like it, don't watch...people these days

[Inferfire]

I like both versions, Reel big fish does a great upbeat cover of the song, but morrissey has a very melodic melancholy tune to it. Song is great overall!

[Eagle1337]

right-o, i prefer Reel big fish's version only cause it's more up beat.

[weissegurke7]

Reel Big Fish's version is a lot better. Its sounds kinda gay in this version.

[staaaofcctv]

a lyrical genius.

[13TalesInAll]

Reel Big Fish PWN's this piece of shit

[Phishr]

Hell yeah they do.

[meisross]

Reel Big Fish are fucking awful, you're obviously a musical retard.

[13TalesInAll]

you call me a musical retard i have my own taste as do you but Reel Big Fish kicks the fucking shit out of this you douche

[meisross]

Sure, you're allowed your own views. I'm just saying your views are wrong. Reel Big Fish are a band for stupid people who can't appreciate real music. Fact.

[13TalesInAll]

GO DIE I LIKE OTHER MUSIC YOU ASS!

[meisross]

Yeah probably shit music...let me guess. I reckon you like...Linkin Park, Green Day, Blink 182...correct?

[13TalesInAll]

NO NOT CORRECT i hate that shit i like a couple songs by Blink-182 but srsly GO DIE DO THE WORLD A FAVOR YOV FAILED AT LIFE IF YOU LIKE THIS SHIT

[meisross]

Failed at life? That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard so I'm not going to respond properly to your comment.

[missjuliapepperoni]

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, leave it alone.

[meisross]

You are correct.

I just get annoyed when people have the wrong opinions.

[Grimmreaperdd]

hmm dip shit thats your opinion leave it at that and grow up and dont hate on others for the music they listen to

[uBeR1337gUy]

I like both. I think people can appreciate good music and still like the new stuff. I'm a fan of Queen and bands like Twisted Sister. I also like some of the new pseudo-metal bands like Disturbed.

And personally, I think Morrissey did this song better.

[campusmoviemaker]

hes so awesome,i wish i colud of went with my dad

[eloisesucks14]

ahh.. my absoloute fave song..!

[edgycharacter]

where does he get those awesome shirts?

[hyundaideutsch]

Best singer ever!

[hyundaideutsch]

But great music!

love it!!

[hyundaideutsch]

1992?

old

[marysomeone]

reel big fish does it better..

[AlyLovesGaara]

very slow....

[moocowmad]

what has that to do with this awesome singer?

[paulf1986]

live vocals over the backing track. oh well, as long as its moz live!

[akuryo1]

And when they're northern thats even worse! Yeah you rick! LOL

[Trevor1977]

Gary Day is playing the bass!But it looks like a Les Paul!

[jovenviejo]

it sounds just like in the album! Aren t they doing playback?

[maXimaNL]

Great ego-boost. Fortunately I am not the only one, who hates it when friends become successful, hihi.

[KBAKBA]

"It's really laughable." Great to see Morrissey in a jolly mood, or at least, jolly by Morrissey standards.

[icj1980]

i hate when my friends become successful but i have to smile at them,and then i forget....

VIVA MOZ!!!

GREAT SONG!!

[hyundaideutsch]

you'll also become successful if you put your mind to it.

[jumble72]
