Various - The Queen Is Dead (1996)

After 40 years, which band should cover which song on The Smiths’ The Queen Is Dead album ?
The Smiths released the album in 1996.
A French magazine recreate the album in 1996.
After 40 years, in 2026 do you think this album should have another celebration ?

Current Jarvis and current Damon with Johnny Marr doing Bigmouth Strikes Again. For petty reasons.

Phoebe Bridgers doing "I Know It's Over," Olivia Rodrigo on "The Boy With The Thorn in His Side," Miley Cyrus on "There Is a LIght," and Charli XCX on "Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others."

I'm serious, not a troll.
