Shoplifters of the World Unite...and take over! Excellent song all the way with its sweet taste of irony aligned with some punk rhythm but sadly it was one of Smiths last
songs, so when you hear anything of theirs from 1987 or just watch the videos you just that sad feeling about the beginning of the end and then their dissolution was confirmed
a year later. But whatever the case, they still delivered great material, one after another, and this track is one of my favorite thanks to Marr and Rourke riffs and Morrissey's
amazing voice.
Moz is the main star of the show while dancing and singing, and this video is memorable due to its tribute to Elvis in the form of a shirt he's wearing inside the jeans jacket.
It's the usual routine when it comes to group performances, it's quite easy to get confused with other videos of theirs such as "Sheila Take a Bow" or "Panic" (live version) since there are a handful of things that change here and there, the differential comes through the songs, one better than the other. It's always great to hear them all. 8/10.
