They only wrote 70 songs in their short career. Nearly all of which are absolute gems. Such a talented, unique, and influential band. Thanks for the reaction mate!

[@JAOB1968]

“Only” 70? What more do we want? This one song would have been sufficient to make them unique (a word never more appropriately used). The other 69 are an added bonus. People lament they separated early. I am grateful they “happened” at all, which they could very well not have. And certainly never will

@@DoctorMeatDic You seriously consider Morrissey to be an "average, everyday normal working class person"? "Deliberately avoiding rock machismo, he cultivated the image of a sexually ambiguous social outsider who embraced celibacy.

The smiths were amazing. A drummer who was from a punk band A bassist from a funk band Their guitarist was virtuoso immersed in everything from soul to punk from working in a record store And Morrissey, a crazy lyricist who plundered kitchen sink dramas and poetry for inspiration. They had a strange partnership, Marr would write the music and send it to Morrissey, the band would then record their parts and Morrissey would then sing over the track, often they heard the lyrics for the first time in the studio Check " I know it's over" as an example of this and imagine hearing those words over your music for the first time.

I believe the story of the flowers goes as follows: The Smiths were playing on a big British show called Top Of The Pops. The thing about that show was, the network would book whoever was at the top of the music charts and have them perform, but the artist/band was not allowed to play/sing live; they had to lip synch to their record. So since Morissey didn't need the microphone he decided to take the piss and sing into some flowers. There's a clip of the time Iron Maiden played Wasted Years on Top Of The Pops, and kept switching positions (having the drummer play guitar, having the bassist lip synch, having the singer drum, and keep switching positions like musical chairs. Also, with Morissey, his rabid fan base would come to Smiths' shows and bring him flowers and copies of Oscar Wilde books and different things he mentioned in songs.

Morrissey is so funny - I can’t explain the bush he’s wearing in his jeans but the hearing aid he is wearing is because a fan with hearing disabilities wrote to him saying they felt very self-conscious about wearing a hearing-aid and so of course Morrissey appears on the most popular TV show at the time (watched by practically all of England, Ireland and Scotland) wearing a hearing-aid so his fan would not feel self conscious.

@@1011moz It's true. Dylan? BB King? Hendrix? Zeppelin? The Rolling Stones? All of them will be remembered forever. You can't help but hear their music everywhere, even people who don't necessarily like them know their songs. When's the last time you heard a Smiths song being played in public?

Check out handsome Devil - kickin track bro!..The plant in his back pocket has to do with a certain popular music show of the time called Top of the Pops. Singers appearing on the show were told they had to mime their lyrics to a vocal track rather than sing live. Morrissey thought this was stupid and wrong so when he appeared on the show, instead of holding the mic he sang into a big bunch of flowers instead! presumably to show the ludicrousness of it all. It kind of took on a life of it's own after that with fans bringing flowers to smiths concerts and throwing them at him. The plant in this vid is a reference to all that stuff. LOL

Morrissey is known for performing on stage accompanied by flowers, usually gladioli, swinging in hand or shoved in the back of his trousers. The history behind flowers and his flowering caring fans can be linked to a music video by the British pop group The Smiths in which Morrissey was the lead vocalist. The video was for the single "This Charming Man" it was the group's second single released in October 1983. Two music videos were made for "This Charming Man". The first was filmed by the British television show The Tube, and features the band playing the song in a room filled wall to wall with flowers. Morrissey and fellow Smiths band mates can be seen in the video tossing flowers about while flower petals fall from the ceiling. After the "This Charming Man" video release The Smiths fans would adorn the band with flowers whenever the band performed live.
