Leer más"Certain People I Know" was the first Morrissey single to be released following the singer`s bottling off stage at the Madstock festival when he supported Madness and the subsequent NME story regarding his alleged racism.[4][5] This led to the single cover being changed from featuring the singer`s name spelt out in the colours of the Union Jack to plain black writing.[6]
Reviews
Ned Raggett of AllMusic called the lead track "a bit of an odd choice" for a single but added that its B-sides "are among Morrissey`s best".[3]
