"This tune is another co-write with Morrissey.
Original version was released in '95 as a single.
Pretty bare-bones recording of it here on my Gibson J-200 for the Safe-At-Home sessions.
Tough one to sing and play at the same time."

hahahahahahahaYes, closed getting on for 10 years ago - now that Whitechapel has become a suburb of Bangladesh. Nice people - you can get a good curry in Brick Lane. But sad that an entire culture has just been wiped off the map. Ethnic cleansing.
That really is quite magnificent - "Yeah, can't stand these darkies, but I still like a curry"hahahahahahaha
The Blind Beggar is still open, isn’t it? That place must be an oasis of sanity and virtue round there, now.Yes, closed getting on for 10 years ago - now that Whitechapel has become a suburb of Bangladesh.

Except he didn’t say that. Still, not the first lie you’ve told and it won’t be the last.That really is quite magnificent - "Yeah, can't stand these darkies, but I still like a curry"
You are choosing to ignore the "nice people" part of the post as it does not fit your agenda. You are the only one using the racist term "darkies".That really is quite magnificent - "Yeah, can't stand these darkies, but I still like a curry"

Coco Pops???Skinny could see racism in a bowl of cereal.
Apart from the barmaid's lack of knowledge, was it a decent boozer?I had a few drinks in there, in ‘97 I think. The barmaid didn’t know who Morrissey was.
I think it’s closed now?

It was startling that it didn’t look anything like you’d expect: it was was done out in a 70s light teak style as I recall. And the beer was disappointing. It was a lager drinkers’ pub. The nearby Blind Beggar is (was?) beautiful though.Apart from the barmaid's lack of knowledge, was it a decent boozer?
Interesting...the Sunny cover had me wanting to have a few beers in it if I was ever visiting that area of London but a pity it's no longer open. Blind Beggar with all it's history sounds worth a visit after lockdown.It was startling that it didn’t look anything like you’d expect: it was was done out in a 70s light teak style as I recall.
