Despite the music press initially declaring this compilation of singles and B-Sides "inessential", fans soon grew to love The World Won't Listen as it offered a new selection of mixes including the singles "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out" and "You Just Haven't Earned It Yet, Baby". Indeed, the title picked by Morrissey represented the band's frustrations with the music industry of the time. As The Smiths, they reacted inthe only way they knew how: directly through their music and now iconic artwork.
