Please please please Morrissey -- sing this when you play at the Sydney Opera House in December. Please. Thanks for posting this -- wonderful to watch.
I wouldn't say MUCH better. I like the understated strings on the album. It leaves space for the quieter instruments to breathe. However, this version is going to be released soon on an updated version of the song. Write exciting!
I actually quite like the album version. Some of the higher string stabs are a bit shocking. But, I hear they're being reincorporated in a new version for release this year - I'm very much looking forward to that!
You could say the wince is owing to the awkwardness of his hearing his own voice. It's possible- Lennon hated his own voice. But, then again, he's not Lennon and I'm not him, so I could be way-off-the-mark. And, anyway, the wince happened when his voice wasn't singing. Greetings from the South Pacific.
As rare as it was that Moriccone did a string arrangement for a song, it was the right decision to not include the whole arrangement. It’s way off and totally doesn’t suit the emotion of the song. It’s strings stabbing around for the sake of it and ruins the build. They kept just the right amount in the final
I agree, even though I love the arrangement, but I see the final version and this as two separate things. Maybe this could’ve been finalized and released as a separate piece.
One of the most beautiful, tragic works of art ever.
RIP ENNIO
Ennio Morricone is a genius. I love that man.
A song that touches you deep within your soul.
Dear Moz please help me 🙏✨️

I totally agree with you. This arrangment sounds incredibly lush and beautiful, the one they recorded is not bad but this is just perfect.
Simply beautiful x
Possibly the most astounding thing about this video is that there is wine being passed around and Boz doesn't have any! :)
Boz learned from Adam Ant not to drink and not to smoke. What does he do? 😝😜
Never heard of this version... Nice video thank you
hermoso
epic
Have you recognized the great maestro Ennio Morricone?What a shame to cut this arrangment..
There are explosive kegs between my legs....
I'm used to laugh in this part
Much better than the one he put on the album. Strings add emotion

why on earth producers didn't allow this magnifcent arrangment features completely in the song? the way they cut the arragment is a shame.
True, it sounds georgoes in this video but too lame on the actual record. The beauty got lost in the mixing process.

Is this version of the song (with full orchestration all the way through) available anywhere?
It was up on youtube put recently got pulled, and I can't find it anywhere now unfortunately.
Someone remixed the two together. It’s on TH-cam.

I totally agree, and I am bewildered by the comments acting like this is some kind of masterpiece. The official version eats this for lunch.
