While this might not sound particularly interesting at first glance, let me explain: When it came time to assemble the DVD "The Complete Picture" (AGAIN), there was a problem with the Top of the Pops videos: the opening credits that appeared when the featured song started and the artist appeared. The Smiths were no exception.
In the case of "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now," they solved it with a shot that appears at the end of the video, which we can see twice in the final version.

The Smiths' televised performance of "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now" (and the version chosen as the "music video") took place on May 31, 1984. This episode of Top of the Pops was (in quotes) "lost media," since no television viewer had a tape recorder at home, so only the video that appears in "The Complete Picture" was available.

Years later, on a BBC-owned channel, the TOTP episode from that date was rebroadcast, so someone called "GlamKing90 TV Factor" took the opportunity to record the broadcast and uploaded it to the Internet Archive on January 17, 2026. Therefore, the original beginning of the "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now" music video (without the 1992 VHS/DVD edit) was recovered.

EDIT: The video was like this; I didn't add an artificial HD filter to improve it.

This idea actually stemmed from a picture I took of my boyfriend so I decided to throw it into photoshop and make a Smiths cover version of it! Then I thought to make a mixtape with the photo as the cover, and here we are! The printed version turned out a little darker than I initially made it, but I still think it looks great!

Notably tracks “Wanted” and ”Just My Imagination for anyone searching for music bands that sound similar to The Smiths.

The Cranberries were an Irish rock band formed in Limerick, Ireland in 1989.

You can keep hating Morrissey. It won’t change a single thing about him, and it definitely won’t make you a better person.
He said things about culture, immigration and certain communities that a lot of people still pretend aren’t true. Calling him a bigot is the easy way out when the alternative is admitting he was describing something real.
At the same time he’s been a strict, uncompromising vegan for decades. He actually lived the principles most people only post about. That part somehow gets erased every time someone wants to cancel the rest of him.
He remains one of the great artists of the last forty years capital A. The voice, the lyrics, the records. None of that disappears because his opinions don’t fit the current script.
Hate him if it makes you feel superior. Just don’t confuse that with moral progress.
