Notable for Johnny Marr's reggae-inflected guitar. Looser than the eventual studio version but still breezy.
Nice demo showing a relaxed, almost slap-dash run-through with the lyric yet to be finalised.
Johnny Marr is either being playful in the aftermath of Morrissey's "reggae is vile" outburst, trying to wind Morrissey up in the final days of the band or just mucking about as he skanks out the guitar part.
The demo version begins with a sombre bass and drum crunch before Marr's shimmering sunsplash guitar ushers in Morrissey's vocal. The rhythm section is a little leaden so it's presumably a very early take. Fascinating though.
