So Young (The Stone Roses song)
"So Young/Tell Me" is the debut double A-side single by English rock band The Stone Roses, produced by Martin Hannett and released in 1985 on Thin Line. The single went without much notice outside of Manchester, and demonstrates a very different aggressive punk style than the band's later material with Reni in particular showcasing a more exuberant drumming style. "So Young" was originally titled "Misery Dictionary", but the band changed the song's title to make it sound less negative and because they did not want people to think that they  were influenced by The Smiths who had similarly titled songs, such as "Miserable Lie" and "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now". The front cover artwork was produced by John Squire, who smashed an old transistor radio and then glued the parts together. Ian Brown has since distanced himself from the songs, saying he "wouldn't pay 10p for it now" and that it sounded like "four lads trying to get out of Manchester". The single later appeared as part of the "Compact Disc Singles Collection", an 8-CD collection of the band's singles released by Silvertone in 1992. Both  songs also featured on the compilation albums "The Complete Stone Roses" and "Garage Flower" Track listing. 1985 release. "with So Young/Tell Me on the cover" 1992 issue.
