My Love Life by Morrissey
My Love Life is an EP by Morrissey, released in 1991. 2 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 6 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “That's Entertainment”, on 5 lists with a best position of #31.
"My Love Life" arrived in September 1991 on His Master's Voice, a standalone Morrissey single that belonged to no studio album and only turned up on the compilations World of Morrissey and Suedehead: The Best of Morrissey later in the decade. After the rockabilly strut of "Pregnant for the Last Time", he and co-writer Mark Nevin went back to pop, and this was the last single the pair made together. Chrissie Hynde sings harmony, and the result is a lush, swooning pop song that reached number 29 in the UK.
It also marks the end of an era: after this, Alain Whyte and Boz Boorer came aboard full-time. The countdowns have favored "That's Entertainment", also found here. On the flip, "I've Changed My Plea to Guilty" is a gem, and the UK version wraps it in a crackly vinyl snatch of Skeeter Davis's "The End of the World" and a man telling a story over clinking dishes.
