The Smiths - What Difference Does It Make? [Single]

Released in 1984, "What Difference Does It Make?" is the lead single from The Smiths' eponymous debut album.


The artwork is a photograph taken on the set of the film The Collector (but isn't depicted in the actual film), based on the novel by John Fowles. Soon after it's release, The Smiths were denied permission for the still to be used, and some pressings featured an alternate cover with lead singer Morrissey in a re-enacted scene. In the re-enactment Morrissey is holding a glass of milk, as opposed to a chloroform pad in the original. Eventually, they were given rights to the photo, and the covers featuring Morrissey are now very rare and collectible.
