Morrissey is set to release new single “That’s How People Grow Up” on 4th February, 2008, one week prior to a 15 track Greatest Hits which spans his unique 20-year solo career.

One of two new songs to be included on the Greatest Hits collection, “That’s How People Grow Up” was recorded in Houston, Texas with Jerry Finn, producer of 2004’s widely acclaimed No. 2 album ‘You Are The Quarry’. Morrissey is currently working with Finn on his new studio album, the follow-up to 2006’s No. 1 ‘Ringleader Of The Tormentors’. The new LP is scheduled for an Autumn 2008 release.

“That’s How People Grow Up” will be made available on CD and two 7″ vinyls, backed with live versions of “The Last Of The Famous International Playboys” (Morrissey’s 3rd single), “The Boy With The Thorn In His Side” (by The Smiths) and “Why Don’t You Find Out For Yourself” all recorded on the recent North American tour. A live version of “That’s How People Grow Up” will be available as a digital exclusive.
