It was released on 13 May 2014 as the first single from his tenth studio album of the same name (2014), through Harvest and Capitol Records.[1][2][3] The single was accompanied by a music video, directed by Natalie Johns.[4] The song was recorded in France with Morrissey's touring band which features guitarists Boz Boorer and Jesse Tobias, bassist Solomon Walker, drummer Matthew Walker and keyboardist Gustavo Manzur and was produced by Joe Chiccarelli, who is known for his production work for Beck and The Strokes.[5][6]
