The smiths are a lot of things- but overrated isn’t one of them.

'Break up the family' by Morressey is a great track to react to or 'Piccadilly Palare'. Glad you can appreciate the uniqueness of Morressey/The Smiths!
@Logan7R6 ай бұрын
Great choices! 👍"Break Up The Family" is a nice little gem! This is on Morrissey's first solo album "Viva Hate" for those who might not know.

I think the abrupt entrance of the guitars after the slow piano at the opening of Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me, is supposed to represent suddenly waking in an emotional state from a vivid dream. Possibly a wet dream. Only Morrissey could sing about such a thing.

@eng60511 ай бұрын
My favorites are: Well I wonder, Rubber ring, Back to the old house (Hatful of hollow version), Bigmouth strikes again, The boy with the thorn in his side, Ask, There is a light that never goes out, What she said, That joke isn't funny anymore, Shoplifters of the world unite, Unloveable, Asleep, You just haven't earned yet, baby, I don't owe you anything. There are many wonderful songs by them.

Growing up in the north of England in the 80's you have an affinity to the smiths that is hard for outsiders to understand yet their message still gets out there, it was a grim but exciting time, it can only be understood by those who lived it and the smiths explained it better than anyone.

You sucked my in with your Worrying title, but you of course came to the correct conclusion! The Smiths were amazing, influential, and left a long legacy and fabulous catalogue. Listen to Paint a Vulgar Picture, Unhappy Birthday, Reel Around the Fountain, There is a Light That Never Goes Out!! To be fair they are all good.

Great reaction! I think most of us have heard these songs many, many times. It is just nice to hear the reaction and perspective from someone hearing these classics for the first time. I would add "Well I Wonder" to consider for a reaction one of these days.

I remember well in the UK when The Queen Is Dead album was originally released, so many people returned the record to the shop in which they purchased it. Simply due to the song Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others. As the song fades in and then immediately drops out again only to be faded back in again only longer this time, the fans thought there was a mastering issue on the vinyl pressing or cassette tape. They had no idea it was intentional and assumed this to be an error and thus requested a replacement copy. 😊

Wow king of the mix, nailed it again, and 3 Smiths as well! Loved it. You seem to be really open to new experiences musically and the Smiths don’t disappoint! I’d like to put an spotlight on the lyrics, Mozzer has always raged against artists who never used their privilege as an artist to raise other peoples consciousness ( think booty/ gangsta rap to i wanna hold your hand bullshit) together with the riffs and base it maker for the most interesting music i’ve even come across. Favs? All! Best? Nowhere fast/ rubber ring/ still ill/ i know its over/…/…/… greets from Amsterdam! HT

I dare throw my hat in the ring, please react to Wonderful Woman by The Smiths. It defeats the monotony of reacting to the same smiths songs on YT, and one could argue, top 5 song of theirs, while being a b side track, a B SIDE!

"Why did they name the album - The Queen is Dead?" - well lots of people consider Morrissey to be quite depressing, but in reality he's always been a raging optimist and quite singularly ahead of his time.

Marr and Morrissey were big fans of girl group Pop in America. Hence most of the titles of their songs at some point where a twist on their favourite songs . Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Now . Heaven knows I’m missing him now. All music is prism. Borrow and Steel wisely

The Smiths were hated by music industry because they refused to give in to the industry. That's why Morrissey is so vilified to this date
