〕 }} "We Hate It When Our Friends Become Successful" is a single by Morrissey released in April 1992. It was taken from the then-unreleased ''Your Arsenal'' album and was the first Morrissey single to be written by Alain Whyte and produced by glam rock legend Mick Ronson. Reaching number 17 in the UK Singles Chart, the song shows a harder edge to Morrissey's sound and moves away from the lighter pop of his 1991 album ''Kill Uncle''. The Swedish synthpop band Universal Poplab covered the song on their 2004 debut eponymous album, in a duet with the Swedish pop singer Håkan Hellström. Reel Big Fish covered the song on their 2005 album ''We're Not Happy 'til You're Not Happy'', replacing the lyric "And if they are Northern" with "And if they are No Doubt". Morrissey claimed that the lyrics were about the music scene in Manchester, with bands contesting for success. On hating it when his friends become successful, he said: "When my old friend Simon Topping (frontman of Manchester band A Certain Ratio ) appeared on the cover of the NME, I died a thousand deaths of sorrow and lay down in the woods to die." ==Track listings== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「We Hate It When Our Friends Become Successful」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
