I remember him saying something in the vicinity that the cover was "lovely", but of course he would, wouldn't he?
Bowie himself thought the original was a partial cover of his own "Rock 'n Roll Suicide", so in essence, he was doing a cover of a cover of himself. How very post-post-modern.
In anycase, as you probably know, Morrissey and Bowie had a falling out (big surprise) and our Mozzer was quoted as calling him "David Showie" and saying "(He is) not the person he was. He is no longer David Bowie at all. Now he gives people what he thinks will make them happy, and they're yawning their heads off. And by doing that, he is not relevant. He was only relevant by accident."
So please turn off the stereo now, Bowie sucks and should be killed. No self-respecting Smiths disciple should ever listen to David Showie ever again!!!
