Internal label sources indicate that "Let Me Kiss You" will be the next single from YATQ. Set for release on 9/20/04, the same day Nancy Sinatra's cd single is out! No information regarding b-sides yet.

Oh Morrissey! (Score:1)
"I'm not sorry" would have been the one- it's so modern! I am convinced.
"Bores" would have been funny for reasons I've mentioned before.
"Let me kiss you" is alright, but Nancy's version is better IMHO.

I agree with the person above who suggested that "I'm Not Sorry" be the next single, as it is, in my opinion, quite modern and rather catchy.
Another good choice would be "I Like You". Again, far more catchy than "Let Me Bore You".
Finally, why release it the same day as Nancy's release? Someone should tell him that it's rather rude of him to steal her thunder!

I agree with the above poster...he shouldn't release it the same day as Nancy's, how rude! Maybe it's a marketing scheme designed to lure us all into buying both?

Let me kiss you is a beautiful song and has potential to do quite well, so it's not as catchy as first of the gang to die, but I've heard more than one person say "nah I don't like that Morrissey, although that Let me Kiss you, is really beautiful"
But if I had to choose the next single it'd be I like you :P
He should release them together "I like to kiss you" 2 singles in 1, double the b-sides! we all win!

Anyhow, this is a lousy choice, and I can't imagine it getting any airplay at all. Sure I like the song, but it's near the bottom of the list of songs that would make proper singles from this ablum. "I Like You" would have been a much better choice...
Hey, but what do I know...I still think Bowie's a genius.

I would have been a shame if a song of such beauty was never released as a single.
So what if the "general public" doesn't like it? Who cares? Morrissey had two top ten singles already. He doesn't have to prove anything to anyone.

Oh... I guess it'll do... (Score:1)
At the wretched music station I used to work at, "Let Me Kiss You" has already been played, the track of choice from that album, and it fits well enough with the station's increasingly Adult Alternative easygoing format. (If I had my druthers, "I Have Forgiven Jesus" would have been the surprise choice. That or "Crashing Bores")
So I guess the next single will be my 2nd-least favorite track on the album (the first being "You Know I Couldn't Last'). But give me more B-sides and I'll pony up the cash.
Wouldn't "I'm Not Sorry" be a wiser choice for the slow-tempo set? I hear Dido has made some money with a similar sound...

'Let me kiss you' is sublime! (Score:0)
Lovely lilting chorus. Subtle arrangement. Poetic lyrics 'I've zigzagged all over America'. Classic Moz trick of narrowly avoiding a cliché 'I've heard that you'll try anything twice!' and a lovely dollop of trademark self-deprecation 'but then you open your eyes...'. Plus that gorgeous keyboard line in the coda.
It showcases a really different side to Morrissey than the previous two singles.
It's a fresh, peotic, original, tuneful love song. What better way to end the summer?

It's probably just the Nancy Sinatra version they're refering to, and 'I Like You' will probably be the next single as Sanctury will be the ones wanting the greatest commercial impact.
I'd like to see 'Camden' as a single, it'd be nice to have Morrissey drag a ballad into the the top twenty.

Not another Top Ten hit. I don't think this will make the Top 20.

also, by releasing it on the same day, they (moz and nancy) will generate more media attention, so i feel the effect will be more positive than negative.
who cares if moz is number one in the charts anyway? it, obviously, was not this that attracted you to his music in the first place.
Typical Moz cock up (Score:1)
as a single though, trying to get new fans attention on first listen, it will do well to gain entry into the top 20.
saying that, if all us mad ones buy a copy each, then he's gonna get 15,000+ anyway.

But there's also another factor. Let's not forget that Nancy is very likely to make a hit (at least in some niche targets): Tarantino's Kill Bill soundtrack featured her song "Bang Bang". There's a slight chance that she sells more than Moz given the worldwide popularity of QT soundtracks.
Anyway, I heard her version of the song and didn't find it very good, it reminds me of French actress Jeanne Moreau singing with her 120 year old lady's voice... and it gives me the creeps !

and isuppose this ends the chances of 'The World Is Full Of Crashing Bores' being made a single. ihad hoped that it would be as it would be lovely to hear on the radio [if it by some stroke of luck recieved any airplay], mocking everything and everyone [includding Moz himself]. if the release of 'Let Me Kiss You' is true it may be the final single from 'You Are The Quarry' or if there is a fourth it will surely be 'I Like You' as idont see him releasing a second slowdown like '...Bores'.
