Girlfriend in a Coma (song)
"Girlfriend in a Coma" is a song by The Smiths. It was released as a single in August 1987, reaching No. 13 in the UK Singles Chart.
The track was the first of three UK singles from the band's last studio album ''Strangeways, Here We Come''. As such, it was the last single to include newly recorded material on the B-side. It holds the distinction of containing the last recorded Smiths song, "I Keep Mine Hidden". Also included—and recorded at the same session—is a cover version of a Cilla Black song, "Work Is a Four-Letter Word".
==Release==
Morrissey's insistence on releasing this song as a single incurred the wrath of Johnny Marr who left the band not long afterwards. The video, which featured clips from the film ''The Leather Boys'' (starring Rita Tushingham), was directed by Tim Broad. BBC Radio 1 refused to play the song. Morrissey later commented, "You're not really supposed to like those songs. They're very depressing and not supposed to be played on radio."〔Plender, Andrew, "Mr Miserable Spreads Joy", ''The Independent'': 17 May 2006〕
The cover features playwright Shelagh Delaney from a 1961 edition of ''A Taste of Honey''. The photo was tinted grey for 7"s in all countries except in Australia where it was tinted green as for the 12"s. This was the second time Delaney appeared on a Smiths cover; she appeared as the cover star on the then-recently released ''Louder Than Bombs'' album. According to Johnny Marr, the Bob & Marcia song, Young, Gifted and Black, had an influence on this record.
