Single release by Morrissey and Siouxsie Sioux released under the name 'Morrissey & Siouxsie' as a standalone duo project. The song is a cover a song with lyrics by Hal Shaper and music by George Delerue for a 1968 British film of the same name directed by Kevin Billington. The song for the film was originally performed by Timi Yuro.
Morrissey had reportedly made several attempts in arranging a duet project with Sioux, and finally she accepted the song here after Morrissey's many suggestions for possible cover songs.
The song is a chamber pop-styled ballad and it was met by some appraisal landing at number #25 on the UK singles chart. The song is quite nicely arranged and performed, but is still mostly a collector's item without the most evident qualities.
