REMASTERED Unfinished Studio Outtake C/w Morrissey's Original UN-edited vocal ..The Italians, when given the masters for their own local release of this 'B-Side', somehow got their reels confused and released this highly unique trial mix ... Initially only the guitars are mixed differently but this recording quickly devolves into the most unique version ... 2:05 Morrissey gets to exercise his moaning organ & adds a touch of yodeling ... A section where the band comes to a complete stop with Morrissey clearly saying "OK?" to producer John Porter 6:05 , & then a few seconds later the track fades back up to the final closing. There are other vastly different instrumental sections in the latter third of the song that make this a great listen as well.
Ripped directly from Italian only 12" release of 'William It Was Really Nothing', 1984 Virgin VINX71.
The Original Withdrawn 12" release is as As "rare as a Steak Pie in Morrissey's House" ....enjoy ';¬D

  • Brilliant. Thanks for the share.

  • OMG! I've been looking for the infamous "Italian mix" of this song....THANK YOU!

  • just that momentary glance into the reality of the lives of these idols is something which is hard to describe; even though their music is "real" in that it portrays emotion, this release is really something special. bravo on the find, bravo

  • okay?

  • this is quite amazing!

  • lol - thats some dodgy mixing -- but great for my smiths digital library :

  • where was this hiding and how did i miss it and now i cant get it out of my head

  • Seems Love Spit Love's cover was based more on this version.

  • my life depicted in one song thank you morrissey and the smiths
