morrissey/smiths songs in films & tv shows

I actually have one to add to the list!

Never Been Kissed

It's always been one of my favorite movies, but I hadn't watched it in a few years until tonight. During the prom scene near the end, they play "Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want" in the background. I had never noticed it before because when the movie first came out, I didn't know about Morrissey or The Smiths yet, and so I never picked up on it! When I saw it tonight, I started screaming "IT'S MORRISSEY, IT'S MORRISSEY!" like a wildwoman at the TV and rewinding the scene. My mom thought I had gone bonkers!!! hahaha.

This Charming Man was used in one of the episodes of This Life.

someone told me that Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now was used in an episode of Cold Feel, but I didn't see that episode.

I once heard First Of The Gang To Die in a fu***ng MTV program like Dismissed, Next, Room Raiders and so on.

I was watching "The History Boys" over the weekend and there were two Smiths songs in the first half hour of the movie. However, they were instrumental versions as the lyrics were inexplicitly removed.

Clayhilll's cover version of Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want is featured at the end of Shane Meadows' This is England.

It's the best film of 2007 so far.
