What’s one cover you’d like Morrissey to do?

[Anonymous]

I'd like Morrissey to team up with Johnny Marr for a cover of Elton John and Kiki Dee's 'Don't Go Breaking My Heart' (Johnny can sing Kiki's bits). On novelty value alone, they'd sell shedloads and have a good shot at a Top 10 single.

 

[Mozzer1980]

He should cover Rebels without applause but with any other producer.

This is yesterday by my sweet baby nicky & the boys

I mean, I guess. I don't really care if he does it or not. I was just thinking of a cover that would be believable for him to do.

 

[Dirk Blaggard]

Deeply Dippy or Johnny Remember Me

 

[Robert Phoenix]

He should cover "Sympathy for the Devil"

 

[ThePoliticalRevolution]

Angel of the Morning - I would have.a nervous breakdown and collapse.

Johnny Marr >still< cannot sing. Not even that part

Of course Johnny can sing, but his voice is masculine and husky, not suited for this song.

Nothing about Johnny is masculine

I'd like him to cover these:

I've wanted him to do something by The Pretenders because Back on the Chain Gang was awful.
Suede did this and they put their own stamp on it, I think it's one of the best covers I've heard


I think I would like him to try this one, slow it down, make it his, I love it just as it is but I would want to hear his interpretation of it and it has a Wilde quote

Wow... some good choices here.
Cilla would be great
Alas, Cilla has gotten the our boy in bother once before

 

[Bonaparte Shandy]

How so?

 

[Was I ever any good]

How so?

Well..... it goes like this Mr Shandy...

Morrissey and Marr in recording studio.

Morrissey wanting to do a cover of
Cilla.

Johnny now a very unhappy
Chappy.......says, “ I didn’t start a band to cover Cilla 4king Black songs”.

Well you can imagine the chops on our boy Mozz Mr Shandy....

Thus the start of the end for The Smiths.

BUT no doubt we shall here many different interpretations from people on here WHO WERE ACTUALLY IN THE 4KING RECORDING STUDIO AT THE TIME.
