Shoplifters Of The World Unite (Single 1987)

Time for The Smiths last two non album singles starting with "Shoplifters of the world unite", a decent tune that gets better with every play. It features " Half a Person" on the B side, which in itself is a great song that pushes the quality of this 7 inch up, so....

***1/2 stars thumbs up

Shelia Take a Bow (Single 1987)

On a whole, I'm convinced that underground music fans have a completely different taste in music than the general public, because for the life of me I cannot understand why Shelia Take a Bow was a top 10 single in the UK. I can hardly bear to listen to it now, let alone on my own leisure time outside this journal. In short, I find it to be a big pile of sap that makes me want to hurl. Not a fan of the B side either.
