This song rocks. It resonates with me for two reasons: One, yeah, it's catchy and Morrissey's voice, singing slightly behind the beat, complements the band's playing to perfecton.
Two: despite the catchiness of the song, the lyrics themselves are very dark, bluesy, and common to our fickle condition.
The song is almost schizophrenic in its nature: it sounds happy, yet the mood which the singer finds himself in is one of bitter agony. A bittersweet note indeed.
What's great is that this is a song which one can listen to regardless of one's condition: happy or sad. What more can one ask for?
