So I am a sucker. I bought this album again. I have all the b-sides, I have most of the DVD stuff, but I still bought the Deluxe Edition. I know, I know.
The DVD was primarily the reason why I got this version. The video for "Irish Blood, English Heart" is like the most uninspiring video in the world. Can you say "Boring"? And what's with all the hipster kids ?
I will have to post some screen shots from the various videos on here later when I have time. But I did really like the live footage of the Morrissey DVD "WHO PUT THE M IN MANCHESTER?" which is going to be released March 2005.
I am hoping that "I Have Forgiven Jesus" (import only?) will be carried by Best Buy as I have a gift certificate there.
I really wish I lived near a Tower Records, HMV or Virgin.

Morrissey Beefs Up 'Quarry' With B-Sides
November 12, 2004, 3:45 PM ET
Edited By Jonathan Cohen.
Morrissey's latest studio album, "You Are the Quarry," will be reissued in a deluxe edition Dec. 7 via his Attack imprint for Sanctuary. The original album comprises disc one, while the second disc sports nine B-sides, two music videos and three live performances from "The Late Late Show With Craig Kilborn."
Morrissey has been playing a number of the B-sides on his current North American tour, including "Teenage Dad on His Estate," "Munich Air Disaster 1958," "The Never Played Symphonies" and "Don't Make Fun of Daddy's Voice." The track list is rounded out by "It's Hard To Walk Tall When You're Small," "Friday Mourning," "My Life Is a Succession of People Saying Goodbye," "Mexico" and "I am Two People."
The new edition's visual component comprises videos for album tracks "Irish Blood, English Heart" and "First of the Gang To Die" and Morrissey's performances of the latter track plus "Let Me Kiss You" and "I Have Forgiven Jesus" on Kilborn's show. A gallery of 32 images from the artist's 2004 tour rounds out the package.
"You Are the Quarry" debuted at No. 11 on The Billboard 200 in May, earning Morrissey his highest placement either as a solo artist or as a member of the Smiths. The set has sold more than 179,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
The next North American single from the album, "I Like You," is expected early next year.

MORRISSEY TO RELEASE DELUXE EDITION OF "YOU ARE THE QUARRY" IN DECEMBER ON ATTACK/SANCTUARY
November 9, 2004 "You Are the Quarry is a triumph of maladjusted vitality."
Rolling Stone, May, 2004
"Those who miss the voice are in for a treat; Morrissey has never sounded better."
Spin, May, 2004
"His knack for turning the unlikeliest of hooks into infectiously insouciant anti-anthems make this a misfit must-have."
Interview, June, 2004
On the heels of his sold out US tour, Morrissey will release a deluxe edition of his critical and commercial smash album, You Are the Quarry, in December on Attack/Sanctuary. The CD/DVD combo set will contain all of You Are the Quarry and an additional nine b-sides, only six of which have been released in the US. The DVD will showcase Morrissey's three live performances on The Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn in July of this year, the hit videos for "Irish Blood, English Heart" and "First of the Gang to Die," and a 29 picture tour photo gallery.
An unprecedented success, You Are the Quarry is Morrissey's most successful album of his career, solo or with The Smiths. With the support of radio and MTV, VH1 and Fuse, the album debuted at #11 in the US , #2 in the UK and has sold over 1 million copies worldwide. Sold out tours in Europe and the US followed, along with rave live reviews from critics around the world. Having already produced three Top Ten hits in the UK, Morrissey’s next single for America, “I Like You,” will be released in early 2005.
