Eh...It's not bad....It's not great either. I will say a couple things however. It at least has an original take on covers. Pretty sure Morrissey would approve since this sounds like a late 60's British Pop Starlet singing it (pretty much the reason Marr kicked him to the curb was because all Morrissey wanted to do was Cilla Black and Clodagh Rogers covers). At least it isn't some abominatble autotuned overproduced cover by some manufactured Disney act.
Fuck off, haters. She's just trying to cover a gentle version of a favourite song of hers. What's the problem with that? Who knows, maybe Morrisey's a fan.
How can not anyone understand the meaning of a cover? It's so fucking obvious, you twats. A cover is not meant to be better than the original song, it's a tribute, a homage.
@Kank It's hilarious how you should really take your own advice. Ask most DECENT musicians and they'll tell you a cover should add something new to the original, or what's the fucking point?
@Bodycage It's a completely different interpretation of the song. The voice and most of the instruments, except for the guitar, are new. Therefore it's not the same as the original, therefore is it a new interpretation of the song.
Besides, I've already mentioned the point. Covers are supposed to be a tribute to the original creators. Homage, look it up.
it truly is hard to like any cover of such a good song. i love she & him but of course this is gonna be controversial because the smiths are just so wonderful
Me, a HUGE Smiths-fan, must say that this is absolutely great! That 'broken voice' ... Brilliant! So sensative. Okay, Morrissey is the best, but this ain't bad at all.
I love her. If you're reading this Zooey take a chance on a cool person and reply. I'm Victoria. You probably won't even read this, but all you can do in life is try right? haha

Why?? This is too gentle, and destroys the purpose of the song. And what's with all the crooning?
No. Just no.

she really is pretty but not at all a good singer. she has not sense of timing.
Even Morrisey was a timing weirdo, but Zoey doesn't know what she is doing
