I still remember hearing this one for the first time many years ago and my reaction of, "No, nowhere near good enough".
I think the music is the worst that had appeared on a Morrissey studio album up to that point, and still one of the worst up to the present day. Clive Langer has admitted that it was, "knocked out in about five minutes" and I'm surprised that it took that long.
The lyrics are very much Morrissey by numbers.
Also, normally you can at least say that Morrissey's voice lifts things a notch or two, but I don't think even that is the case here. The blend between the vocal and the music is quite unpleasant.
In the poll on the Hoffman board it ranked 256th from 264 songs.
