Soho ~ Hippychick You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

I bought their cassette (yes, cassette!) based off the strength of this song. | |

my friend plays soho on her radio show a lot. certainly a clever use of 'how soon is now'- which is actually a GREAT song, without morrissey singing all over it.

Great song. Didn't Morrissey sue them for using the How Soon Is Now? sample? "Get up off that grey line" | |

I loved this tune, back in the day. That riff from How Soon Is Now was just crying out to be sampled. Apparently, they had to give Moz and Marr a hefty cut of the royalties, though, as they lifted it without permission.

Yeah, I think he an Johnny Marr ended up getting 25 percent of the royalties. "Not everything that is faced can be changed; but nothing can be changed until it is faced." - James Baldwin | |

if you ask me, they did a better job of singing over it than he did. i love marr's playing though, which is the reason i actually owned smiths records at some point in my life. i truly wished they came out with instrumentals. | |

Do not speak ill of the Moz!
Actually, my older sister used to play their records all the time in the mid-80s, and I hated them then - especially his singing! I've learned to love them since, and I even enjoy Morrisey's delivery (like an angst-ridden teenager in a over-the-top huff!) now.
