Among the many who shared a message or a memory in honor of Marianne Faithfull, who passed away yesterday January 30 at the age of 78, there is also Morrissey.

In a post published on his official website, Morrissey Central, the former Smiths frontman opened his memory with the phrase “This is the events of the day”, towards the opening of the song “AS Tears Go By”, one of the Faithfull’s most famous songs, written by Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Andrew Loog Oldham.

“Years later, sitting on his bed in Brussels, listening to his version of ‘Dear God, please help me’, said: ‘Lou Reed told me to make it a cover’. His music approached us all … the girl who happened to everything. “

“Dear God, please Help Me” is a song written by Morrissey with Alain Whyte and Ennio Morricone, published in his 2006 solo album “Ringleader of the Torntors”. Faithfull has recorded its own version of the song for its 2008 cover album, “Easy as, Easy Go”.
