Before hearing this song I have completely agreed with you. This song however could almost be described as upbeat.
I'm actually finding myself quite liking a Smiths song...I wonder what's next...Radiohead?

I wouldn't know what that sounds like - I guess I'll have to take your word for it.

Morrissey is still touring, I believe. Heard he played a small venue in Dallas the other day... I would expect he would be playing some of the old Smiths stuff

I"d like to hear him do a duet with Bjork. 
All that growling would be a hoot.

David Byrne has more talent in his little finger than Morrissey has all over. 

I agree Jonny Marr, underrated and wasted in that band. IMO of course!  {#Tongue}

Or possibly ever.

Too bad the Marr-Morrissey chemistry didn't last, and too bad neither has done anything to match since.

I would really like to hear this played by a punk band.
Or something other played by a punk band.
Or something totally else by someone totally else.
That'd be cool.
