"'Pregnant for the Last Time'" is a song by Morrissey, released as a non-album single in July 1991. This was the first time Morrissey worked with guitarist Boz Boorer, who has consistently worked with him to this day. The single reached number 25 on the UK Singles Chart. B-side "Skin Storm" was originally written and performed by Bradford, while another B-side, "Cosmic Dancer", is a cover of a T. Rex song.

Critical reception



The single was described in 'NME' as a "lovely little music hall ditty" and "far more sprightly and accessible than most of 'Kill Uncle'" in a very positive review.[http://motorcycleaupairboy.com/mozdisc1/pregnant.htm NME Pregnant for the Last Time Review] In a retrospective review, Ned Raggett of AllMusic wrote "The title track itself is very rockabilly-glam, from the tribal drums to the heavy guitar twangs, though the curious lyric keeps it from being a Morrissey classic."

Live performances



The song was performed live by Morrissey on his 1991 'Kill Uncle' tour. He has not performed the song live since then.
