About the two versions of "You just haven't earned it yet baby" and "Stretch out and wait".
According to Mozipedia, Morrissey was not satisfied with Porter's mix (too many overdubs) so it got re-mixed and this version became the B-side of "Shoplifters". According to Mozipedia, the remixed version is the one on "Louder than bombs" and the "World Won't Listen" version (single B-side) is the original. There is no info on "Stretch out", but to my ears both songs sound so much better on "World won't listen" - much better vocal deliveries, more enjoyable mixes. The "Louder" (and original single) versions sound more like demo recordings to me, the drums, the vocal effects...
Can't it be that the "World won't listen" ones are the remixed ones, and if so, who did those mixes?
