1995 single by Morrissey
"Boxers" is a song by English singer-songwriter Morrissey, released in January 1995 to promote a tour of the same name. The single reached number 23 on the UK Singles Chart despite not appearing on an album at the time of the release. The title track and the two B-sides would later be compiled on the World of Morrissey that was released in February that year.
Critical reception
The single was given a favourable review in Q magazine, with Ian Harrison writing that the song "is as good as anything he`s done" and that the single made you "realise how few singers can leave you as despondent, elated or intrigued". NME gave it a negative review, with John Mulvey declaring the single was "just another example of his tedious obsession with bits of rough who`d give him a kicking given half a chance" and that "any enjoyment of his records nowadays is tainted by the fact that a nasty taste from all those obnoxious, apologist, quasi-libertarian quotes still lingers."[citation needed]
In his review for AllMusic, Ned Raggett found the song to be "a fine enough number, with a good overall performance and production to recommend it."[2]
