Rolling Stone - Sinatra Walks With Morrissey


Excerpt:

The Morrissey collaboration, "Let Me Kiss You," is being tipped for early release as a U.K. single. Morrissey, an encyclopedic Sinatra enthusiast, recorded the music and his vocal and sent it to Sinatra, who then added her own vocal. "A few of my songs have made it through the years," says Sinatra, whose hits include "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'," "Some Velvet Morning" (with Lee Hazlewood) and "Somethin' Stupid" (with father, Frank), "and most of the rest bit the dust. Except with Morrissey. He seems to know and love them all. And this song is very much a Nancy/Morrissey song. It's gorgeous and beautiful and romantic and lovely."

Sinatra says that the song is not recognizable as a Morrissey original . . . until its kicker, when he responds to an earlier line of "Close your eyes and think of someone you physically admire" with "You open your eyes and find someone you physically despise." "If it weren't for him singing and playing, you wouldn't know," she says, "until that line. The last line gives it away."
