Oh the disharmony! Much like Harlan County there are no neutrals here. It is your solemn responsibility to decide which cover song prevails. In other words … Which Side Are You On!??!

That’s probably the most I’ve enjoyed Morrissey or The Smiths. I bought The Queen Is Dead on vinyl in the eighties because I kept hearing about how great it was. I thought it was okay, and I still have the record, although I never bought anything else.
All four versions were good. I don’t know Angelika Express, but they’re in fourth place today. Also didn’t know the final act, but that was pretty good.
Not a fair competition when Billy Bragg is among the competitors, and he wins the vote.
