I worked for M&S IT head office when John Lewis released this advert. Everyone knew they had blown us out of the water with the excellence, filming, creativity, music and storytelling with this advert. I am not sure if M&S has ever recovered when it comes to promotion of the Festive Season 🎄
How could you disgrace one of the most beautiful and powerful songs of all time like this? I am a musician myself and although I cover songs, I could never imagine profiting off of a masterpiece that is not my own. Watch him sing it live and you can feel the genuine disparity in his voice. This man poured his heart into this song regardless of his permission. I feel nothing from this version.
this is just beautiful......it's not the original but so what? it is still amazing and different....plus i am in love with slow moving millie...she is one of the most beautiful things i have ever seen!
I personally really LOVE this version. It is soft and raw. Not all songs have to be these killer ballads or driving tempos. There is beauty in the soft honesty of this song.
i love this song i saw slow moving millie on loraine this morning she was amazing!!! she has come in to the music industry without being on x factor or any programs like that to make it well done!!
Absolutely beautiful and sums up how I'm feeling right now perfectly. 'Havent had a dream in a long time' I know that feeling so well. So much emotion to probably no end....
To the haters... I love the original, it was my era, my day but... This is beautiful, transcendent! Grow up, people and enjoy the world that is evolving around you!
Jason Clifford I agree. This very talented modest beautiful woman can't win - she's married to the handsome face that the crazy FSOG fans idolize. Her music is really good,especially the new stuff (if you like more classical). Good luck to her.
I actually love it.You people probably don't say these things to other covers.She did an amazing job and I personally like this version better than The Smiths but we all have different opinions.
@191WildHorse Thats really nice of you to say that to him soon to be her. I wish more people in the world were like you. Have a nice Christmas and New Year. :)
People give the girl some credit for showing her dedication to the song. Anyone can cover it if they wanted to, and this is a beautiful mellow piece shes performed.
This is a perfect Winter song, I just dropped my other half off at the train station and listened to this on the way home, made the walk much nicer! Amazing song!
Such a lovely song. Amelia warner is so talented! People who are so horrible to her, they need to grow up and get a life. She deserves recognition for her music 😊
The thing is: once you put something out for public consumption, every person is going to have their own interpretation of it. Every person that reads the same book, reads a different story. They fill in the gaps, and create the scenes with their own imagination. This is an excellent and personal interpretation of an excellent song. I personally love it, and am very glad it was done.
Ahhhh the best song EVER!! Could listen to it for ever and ever. Last year's John Lewis Christmas advert was played to this and it suited it perfectly! John Lewis have the best taste in the world!!! Merry Chrismtas! xxx
Oh man! This song is slow like your name Slow Moving Millie. But it lingers for a long time. When I was in a library yesterday, out of sudden I heard you singing: please ........ let .... me......... get...... what...... want... I was chilled.
I understand what your saying but this version of this track opened up the smiths to a whole new audience, it shows the vulnerable nature of the band and just how good they we're.
This is the song I sang to myself from a young age whenever I was sad or just needed a cry. im so glad I found it again. (BTW I know this isn't the original but its still beautiful)
The Beautiful People will always get what they want. It's the rest of us that don't, no matter how hard you try or even when you're reduced to begging for a scrap of unconditional love. The answer is not about giving up hope but to simply stop wanting.
I heard this version first and I was really in love with the song from the first time the notes engulfed my surroundings. I looked it up and I was so glad it was the Smiths. Still the cover is wonderful. Shows how much a song can be altered and still be equally if not more, fantastic.
I just listened to The Smiths version... She's basically reinvented the song and brought it to a whole new level. This version is a million times better, I can't believe some people prefer the original. Credit for writing it though, I didn't feel anything from the original but I do from this.
Never heard this song before, so I found the original and for me, she did a great job. Keep going, don't pay attention about these comments. Take them as a new perspective to make better.
Well that's why she's not so that popular in the world. She just a beautiful face with no talent of singing. She can just focus on her life being a wife and a musician. That's all 😏
@@lyndrasangabriel8948 Millie is popular. Guessing you are a Damie. Millie recorded this song for an advert, her version was chosen and the advert was voted the favourite Christmas advert by John Lewis. Not bad for someone not popular and talentless. Now an award winning composer. 😁
Nothing will beat the original but the softness in her voice catches the emotion of the lyrics and it's a lovely version
Wrong, this version rules
@@mycarImissu Agreed. I find Morrissey painfully self pitying. Much prefer the delicacy of this version.
Pffft this is shit
@@mycarImissu no The Smiths version is better but this is great
@@Martial-Mat that's because you don't know how to take it. You have to realise it's dark but in a sarcastic way
Love this version❤ Massive respect as the original is an absolute classic
I hope with all my heart you gentle souls get what you want this time.
Please Please let me get this song in Spotify this time!!!
This song is so moving. Just grabs your heart and pulls you along with the music.
Yes.. obviously the trax is amazing because of Morrissey, not her.
Gracias claro por presentarme esta belleza
This is absolutely gorgeous. The Smiths' music is eternal and it's a pleasant surprise to hear sth like this from time to time.
What. Compared to the Morrissey version. This is Water off a tap. Wet and cold.
this is the best cover of this song!!! love the piano in background..Love this.
Here after SNL "Lonely Christmas Ad." Beautiful, gorgeous, stunning song.
I found it the same way. Did you see the snl video changed the song!? Threw me off. Maybe rights?
I worked for M&S IT head office when John Lewis released this advert. Everyone knew they had blown us out of the water with the excellence, filming, creativity, music and storytelling with this advert. I am not sure if M&S has ever recovered when it comes to promotion of the Festive Season 🎄
im a huge fan of the Smiths, and I find this woman's voice touching and emotional. Perfect cover. She made no attempt to imitate. I love it
THANK YOU SNL AND SHAZAM FOR BRINGING ME HERE !
Wonderful cover.
beautiful ❤
Why is depressing music so awesome!!!! I l am in love with this cover :')

Still love this ten years on :)
I like her voice and scenery in the video!
Felling this way today with the funeral of my brother... R.I.P Tony Lopez.
this is just beautiful......it's not the original but so what? it is still amazing and different....plus i am in love with slow moving millie...she is one of the most beautiful things i have ever seen!
beautiful! Love the sound Amelia! Such talent you have!
She's Beautiful and her voice is melodious 👍❤
I personally really LOVE this version. It is soft and raw. Not all songs have to be these killer ballads or driving tempos. There is beauty in the soft honesty of this song.
i love this song i saw slow moving millie on loraine this morning she was amazing!!! she has come in to the music industry without being on x factor or any programs like that to make it well done!!
this cover truly is a masterpiece
I think this is really beautiful
John Lewis always introduces me to wonderful songs and wonderful artists!
One of the best covers!!! It totaly touch my soul
i love it ,, im crying :,(
Absolutely beautiful and sums up how I'm feeling right now perfectly.
'Havent had a dream in a long time' I know that feeling so well. So much emotion to probably no end....
I do much prefer The Smiths original but this is pretty good
Ten years gone by just like that, listening to this as a kid is very different to now. I truly know what I want now but it’s too late
WHY is it too late
Que voz linda! Versão impecável!
Absolutely brilliant ❤️❤️❤️❤️ love it
To the haters...
I love the original, it was my era, my day but...
This is beautiful, transcendent!
Grow up, people and enjoy the world that is evolving around you!
Jason Clifford they're not hating because of the song. They actually like it. They're hating because she's married to Jamie dornan.
Jason Clifford I agree. This very talented modest beautiful woman can't win - she's married to the handsome face that the crazy FSOG fans idolize. Her music is really good,especially the new stuff (if you like more classical). Good luck to her.
This was my favourite song when I was younger. Just found it again....still love it xx
SWEET VOICE AND BEAUTIFUL SONG!!!!!
I actually love it.You people probably don't say these things to other covers.She did an amazing job and I personally like this version better than The Smiths but we all have different opinions.
That's the reason why you can't say "this version is better" :)
Music touches our souls in many different ways, which is its perfect beauty.
Love
she sings so beautiful😍
i luv this sooo much it makes me cry.... such an amazing cover!!!
She's so beautiful and i love her voice and songs.
Talented and oh so beautiful.
Have to be honest. I heard this version first and instantly feel in love with it.
SNL just used Millie’s version of this song in a pre-recorded sketch with Billie Eilish hosting (Dec 11, 2021).
I adore this and never tire of hearing it x Sally x
A lovely cover that captures the spirit of the original but is much softer & sweeter. Bravo!
i love a song you can associate with so i absolutely love this
@191WildHorse Thats really nice of you to say that to him soon to be her. I wish more people in the world were like you. Have a nice Christmas and New Year. :)

Such a lovely song. Amelia warner is so talented! People who are so horrible to her, they need to grow up and get a life. She deserves recognition for her music 😊
beautifully sung.
Lovely cover! It gets better and better!
If there's one thing this version and the John Lewis ad prove - it's what a wonderful lyricist the poet laureate Morrisey actually is.
This is so underated! People need to listen to this! Amazing talent!
The thing is: once you put something out for public consumption, every person is going to have their own interpretation of it. Every person that reads the same book, reads a different story. They fill in the gaps, and create the scenes with their own imagination. This is an excellent and personal interpretation of an excellent song. I personally love it, and am very glad it was done.
2020 and still listening this music
I found myself listening to this song a lot today. I didn't know that i was hurt from something untill i heard this song. This is why i love music
This cover is absolutely perfect and gorgeous. Her voice melts me.
Slow moving Mille is Marks Music Pix Number 2 this week . Well done.
Love every cover of this song
Have you heard Muse's? It's godawful!
גם אני
Ahhhh the best song EVER!! Could listen to it for ever and ever. Last year's John Lewis Christmas advert was played to this and it suited it perfectly! John Lewis have the best taste in the world!!! Merry Chrismtas! xxx

I love this version...!!! I just simply do!!

I would pick this over the original it's her voice that wins me over
