[@Camme69]

Morrissey's solo stuff is booring. Johnny Marr's guitar is what makes The Smiths great first and foremost

“Bigmouth Strikes Again” is a must. So great musically and lyrically.

[@vmaxgr]

The guitar is played so fine by one of his generation greatest, Mr. Johnny Marr.

[@kittenklub1964]

The Smiths had already split by the time I got into them.....but I was converted FOR LIFE! The lead singer Morrissey is a LYRICAL GENIUS - he tackles all those dark things a lot of singers won't, but he normally puts a humorous edge on it. He was the voice for the shy, the misfits, the awkward, the 'I don't belong' people in the world’ - he made them feel less alone in the world through his lyrics. He went solo shortly after the split and is still an icon, releasing new music & playing sold out gigs due to his legendary status. I have seen him over 20 times in concert and it's like a religious experience - his fans are intense! He is known for being unapologetic and refuses to play the fame game for record companies, which normally leads to him being dropped by the label - as if they think he cares! You should react to this video of him playing the Hollywood Bowl to see the amount of fans that NEED to touch him by invading the stage: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIHMm2lporh7aZI They don't call him the 'MOZZIAH'' for nothing! He's a staunch animal rights activist and The Smiths album, 'Meat Is Murder' is often cited for the biggest shift to vegetarianism. He refused to play his sold out gigs at Madison Square unless McDonalds agreed to close whilst he was there - and they DID! 😆 Another great track you should react to about police corruption is 'Ganglord': kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnjSqK1qi5aWY5I At his concerts, he plays a collage of footage showing police brutality at it's worst. one of the most unique, talented and REAL artists out there today. THANK YOU FOR YOUR REACTION!!!

[@1011moz]

I saw them in 1985 and they were incredible. Morrissey cried on stage as he sang, "I Know It's Over."

This is a man who said about reggae: “The most racist music in the entire world… an absolute total glorification of black supremacy.” and he thinks Adolf Hitler was left-wing.

[@GhostlyEcheveria]

A friend of mine always said his favorite thing about Morrissey is that he never stops singing. He fills every empty space in a song with singing.

[@lynnejamieson2063]

Whenever my older brother was grounded (back in the mid 80’s) my oldest brother used to sing at him “I would go out tonight but I haven’t got a stitch to wear”...it always makes me smile when this memory comes to me, every time I hear this song.

[@robertreichle1]

I used to go around at work singing "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now" in my head. So very perfect for how I felt every day there. I don't have to think about that song when I'm at work now though. A much better place.

[@thomasdonnelly3263]

Yes! I just got sacked from a job in a call centre last week. Worked there for the best part of five months and I listened to Heaven Knows I'm Misearable Now like it was daily prescription. The lyrics perfectly expressed my experience in that workplace haha

[@alipanroosendaal9503]

"There is a light..." is a classic, but this showcases the Morrissey/Marr songwriting partnership perfectly. Great riff, quirky ironic lyrics, and solid beat. That's how you do a pop song.

[@CreativeCreatorCreates]

You need intense accolades! Not just for this but how you are open to LISTENING music :)

[@umdesch4]

Right? Not to mention being able to compare and contrast different songs and bands, and know some things about the bands, and their members too. I keep saying it...JV is turning into a real "musicologist" as we watch.

[@gness4782]

Yeah man trying to get my nephew to listen to good old music is like pulling teeth. It's like good music didn't exist before 🙄

[@TheVikingquest]

Yeah right. Nice analysis. This is about a shalliw man who just wants to go out in fine clothes. Lol. The song starts with the narrator having a ”punctured bicycle on a hillside desolate” he gets a ride in a fine car by a (really not so) charming man. This song is about classtruggle, but also the void between young - emotional and philosophical vs what appears as the meaningless of ”this charming man” way of life - thinking that ”someone so handsome should care”. As if the young and beatiful cant be miserable… The narrator seems against his will beeing envious of the charming man and the ironic nature of the song - the mocking of him emphasis this. They cant understand each other, and he definetely cant go out with him - different class; ” i havent got the sticks to wear” Btw morrisey was probably gay - but noone really cares. He spoke for a whole generation of young people often feeling depressed and out of touch with the older generation. The smiths influence is still immense for me and for many musicians. Ur analysis is so bad. U just dont get it. I liked calboys album, kendrick lamar and most grime artist from the uk. Im a middle aged white guy - but i wouldnt analyze shit i cant intellectually understand - or even the musicality of it. I like the drums u said. Omg. Johnny marr is one the greatest guitarists ever. He wrote the music first on guitar, morrisey made the lyrics to that guitar part. At least u understood how great of a singer he is - u just dont get his message…

[@bogdanbackup]

freshman year high school, same thing, like "wtf is that". But they went south after the 4rd album

[@FightingTorque411]

YES! This was a properly groundbreaking track, especially in its lyrics - nothing in the pop charts before had lines like "Punctured bicycle on a hillside desolate". On the back of this, I recommend the Scottish band Aztec Camera, whose song "Walk Out to Winter" inspired The Smiths' guitarist Johnny Marr to produce a more upbeat tune in "This Charming Man" than they usually played.

[@lesleywarnock228]

Love Aztec Camera!

[@mikecaetano]

When you're ready for more from The Smiths, check out "This Night Has Opened My Eyes" for another supersmooth bass line, "Bigmouth Strikes Again", "What Difference Does It Make", or "Still Ill" for slick driving guitar jingle-jangles, and "Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want" for making two minutes feel like five in a good way.

[@eduardgunin3685]

[@saintsataniko2116]

Now this is a group where you can really pay attention to the lyrics. Most lyrics are just nonsense in service of the melodies, but Morrissey is far too clever for that. Next up "Stop Me If you think that you've heard this one before."

@Síofra Loughlin-Bestawros They we’re all born in England. They formed in Manchester. However, the Irish have also greatly contributed music and musical culture here in America.We love the Irish in the U.S.A and “ Siofra” is a lovely name.It does not surprise me that the Smiths are of Irish decent, all of their names sound like Irish names. But , here in the U.S., The Smiths are listed as “ English/ pop/ punk”…Happy New Year to you Siofra😉🇺🇸🇮🇪

[@raymo6795]

@Síofra Loughlin-Bestawros That is all very interesting Siofra.We here in the States have only vague understanding of the conflicts and prejudices between the Irish the Scottish and the British. The Irish took their share of abuse here in the U.S. as well, but have thrived.But I suppose that all ethnicities have endured some sort of discrimination. It is ugly. Always has been, always will be.However, from now on, I shall refer to “The Smiths” as an Irish band and ask that you pardon my ignorance. I believe that today is “ Boxing Day”? We do not have that in America. Maybe you could offer a brief explanation?…I also have another curiosity: I assume “ Siofra” is Irish. So too is “Laughlin”( Loff-Lin?). “ Bestawros” is what I am curious about…is that also Irish? I assume that is your married name?

[@ronpotts6385]

Smiths fan since 1990 here. A lot of the Smiths' big songs are deep album cuts that weren't released as singles and don't have music videos. Two incredible songs that were singles and have music videos are "Ask" and "The Boy With The Thorn In His Side". A note about this video, "This Charming Man": Since the band's beginnings playing small clubs, Morrissey had a penchant for dancing around with flowers, usually gladioli, in his back pocket or in his hand. The fans caught on to this right away and started bringing him flowers, until there were just flowers everywhere. This has continued for more than 30 years into his solo career as well. Morrissey writes songs for the lonely and broken-hearted, so his fans bring him flowers and other gifts as a way of saying "thank you" for putting relatable feelings to music.

Another band around this time you should check out is The Psychedelic Furs, tforgottenbecauseRichard Butler has a unique voice that can be smooth and haunting (My Time, The Ghost In You) to raspy and mysterious, yet bright (Heartbreak Beat, Heartbeat). Heaven is also a great song by them. Heartbreak Beat has always been a favorite, but it is hard not to get lost in the voice and lyrics of such songs as My Time and Heaven.

This bass line! And Morrissey’s one-of-a-kind voice. And Johnny Marr’s guitar. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ And ohhh, these lyrics are about something else entirely, but you didn’t hear it from me. 😉

His voice takes me right back to the 80's 🥰🤗 gives me the warm and fuzzies!

[@loreleimorphee5162]

You Must focus on the guitar player "Johny Marr," a legend, he composed most of the Smiths songs. He went from the smiths to form a band called Electronic with bernard Sumner from New Order

[@DawnSuttonfabfour]

Morrissey plus Johnny Marr's guitar = sublime. The Killers do a fab cover live at Glastonbury with guest guitarist JOHNNY MARR! And it is spot on. Great cover. Best line "I would go out tonight but I haven't got a stitch to wear".

@Luna Raven Hey babes how are ya? Got your ems thank you. Will reply later. xxxxx

This came out in the U.K. in 1983, I was 17 and rushed to the shop to buy the 12" version. It changed my music forever. Try another English band from the same era called The Chameleons, maybe Tears (not the acoustic version) or Perfume Garden. Love your honest enthusiastic reactions by the way.

Boy, The Chameleons are simply amazing, my first alternative concert, back in '83. Fantastic!

[@rogelioaguirre6052]

Great video man

[@glynisroberts5029]

What a voice!!❤😍

From Manchester myself - loved the song when I 1st heard it in '83 whilst a Art College - got tickets to see them on their 1st tour of Universities - I was a an instant convert and dedicated fan - LOVE YOUR REACTION - and yeah certainly one of the more upbeat tracks - but do give "Girlfriend in a Coma" a listen - gotta be up there with the strangest song titles of all time (and a great tune), Peace!

My dad used to burn his own cds and I remember this being on a lot of them, he passed when I was young but I just found this song again recently and that guitar really brings me back

[@paulentwistle1204]

Johnny Marr is just a guitar genius. Watch the video of him with the Killers at Glastonbury playing this.

Try This Night has Opened my Eyes x

Check out Morrissey’s solo career is good too. Viva Hate album is fantastic..”Hair Dresser on fire” song “Bangali” every day is like Sunday. And then later stuff like “interesting drug” I mean just incredible career and sound

[@jadecawdellsmith4009]

Interesting Drug is a fave
