The opening track and lead single off Morrissey’s forthcoming album World Peace is None of Your Business has just gone on sale via iTunes and other digital retailers, and accompanying the track in the iTunes Music Store is a video of Moz performing a solemn, spoken-word rendition of the song — with a brief cameo from Nancy Sinatra.
The track is available now, and you have to head over to the Morrissey section on iTunes to see the video. Below, you can watch a recent live rendition of the song. The full album is due out July 15.
