World Cup of Morrissey – Round Three

The thirty-two songs that have reached the third round of the World Cup of Morrissey now face each other in a series of single ties until the death.

Spent The Day In Bed surprisingly defeated Come Back To Camden in a play-off and as for Hairdresser On Fire, should anyone want to know what happened to it, well I didn’t use a play-off (it tied with Late Night, Maudlin Street) but put the latter through because of its popularity gleaned from comments.

This is the stage where each song is tagged by a country so, here are those:
