The artwork of the single features a photo taken by Geri Caulfield at a Smiths gig at the London Palladium. The video clip for this Morrissey single features the own singer walking in the streets of Fairmount, Indiana, the boyhood city of James Dean. In the video are also featured the school where James Dean studied and the Park Cemetery were the famed actor is currently buried. Suedeheads were a subculture that grew out from the original 1960s skinhead movement. The lyrics of the Morrissey song are unrelated to that topic.
