A Girl I used to know

[Your Arsenal]

This might have been settled a long time ago, but I never really checked
Anyway, did Morrissey or any of MOZ band members at the time confirm if this was a morrissey song/release or a hoax?
I listened to the song again today and I thought about the root of the song.

Anyone?

That depends on whether you believe this song is the same thing as "Melanie" or not. Melanie is definitely not Morrissey, and this was also confirmed here, by Boz in 2001:

"A Girl I Used To Know" has also been rumoured to be an earlier version of "You've Had Her" back during the time Jack The Ripper was recorded.
