Fun fact: It was JOHNNY MARR who played guitar on ‘Golden Lights’ - not Morrisey.

[@peacebone420]

Morrisey isn't responsible for the dribble on Johnny Marr's grandmother's chin either.

I didn’t like this very much at first, but after listening to it over and overs it’s really nice. I’ve had it on repeat for the last month now.

[@giacomogiovannini1003]

Why people hate this?

[@veronicafever3]

because it sounds nothing like the smiths and also ir's garbage

[@FredFuchs77]

I expect they only hate it so much because it’s in comparison to the rest of the Smiths’ songs. And let’s face it, it’s not really the best song ever is it?

Golden lights displaying your name Golden lights it's a terrible shame But oh my darling WHY DID YOU CHANGE? Boy in a million, idol, a big star I didn't tell you how great you were I didn't grovel and scream And rip your brand new jacket at the seams You made a record, they liked your singing All of a sudden the phone stops ringing Ah... I never thought that you would let The glory make you forget Golden lights displaying your name Golden lights it's a terrible shame But oh my darling WHY DID YOU CHANGE? Top ten idol, king of your age Who do you turn to when you're backstage? Don't you remember you once knew a girl You loved her more than the world Is life always like this, brother? Good for one side but bad for another I must put you behind me tonight 'Cause you belong to the lights Those golden lights displaying your name Golden lights it's a terrible shame But oh my darling WHY DID YOU CHANGE? Oh, oh my darling WHY? WHY DID YOU CHANGE? Oh...

nah this song is pretty shit- like its not horrible but its no where near the best

[@TheFluffestMango]

There’s something very humble feeling about a bigger band making a cover to a song that doesn’t seem that previlant in the public consious- maybe it was more popular back then but I never heard the original song before i went to find the original after listening to this Perhaps this is not the best song the Smiths has released, but it’s still very very very charming

[@sinnerboy6009]

Great guitar ,alright vocals

[@mini_mozzer]

incredible vocals with a wonky filter for fun. never say morrissey has 'alright' vocals again. you hear me?

[@andrewmurray5542]

nothing wrong with the song as such; just a not very good cover. Listen to the original by Twinkle, it's a great track. I Just don't think it's the Smiths' greatest moment by far. It's one i skip so I can get to the good stuff.
