What is capitalism and socialism btw?

[@АлександрМалахов-ш1л]

@@ryunzen074 basically, capitalism is a socio-economic system, in which the majority of the means of production is privately owned. In socialism, the property is socially owned, for example through working cooperatives, where every worker of a company owns a part of it and participates in its management democratically like many countries do with the management of the state

Andy Rourke was a genius! His basslines are masterpieces. Marr compose most of the music, he is a guitar god but Andy also created his parts, he was a guitarist before joining the Smiths, so thats the reason he aproached the bass with melodic and funky lines. Mike Joyce was a machine, i think he created some of his rythms. I love the Smiths. Even i have admiration for Craig Gannon the 5th Smith.

His father kept telling him to find a job but he kept answering nothing was suitable for him. He eventually got a job in an office and the hospital where his father was working but he hated it. He hated normal jobs then when he started a band he understood what he wanted to do. Watch the movie "England is mine" (you can find it in streaming if you search 123movies and the the title), it's the movie about him right before he started with the Smiths, when he didn't know what to do with his life. It's a nice movie.

[@MrScubajsb]

@Blacklipstikkz lol. I feel ya. Obviously every generation has its good and bad but the things that may seem like a negative to some people are actually a good thing. People were not walking around staring at their phone all day long. You actually interacted with people more when you went out to dinner. You talk to people. You didn't take pictures and stay on your phone the whole time and not even talk to the people around you. It just seemed like there was more to experience. When you went into a movie theater they didn't have to say turn your phone off. People were not going to be on their phone in there. You going to sit there and watch the movie? You're going to experience it without taking selfies in the movie theater. And it just seemed like everything was just new and exciting. It's hard to describe.

[@Libellulaire]

@@Blacklipstikkz It's always been like that tbf. I'm older than you (by like 10ish years I'm guessing), there were still those things back then. It feels like you're around people with such a different POV of life or even hobbies that you're kind of "out of touch" with them. A lot of people have always seem weird to me, and the same have been said to me too. Like heck, as a kid/young teen I was called weird for being "always cheerful and happy like you have no problems", and I remember thinking "I'm fucking 11, what kinda problem would I have ??" Keep in mind though that back in the days, when you felt like that, you were pretty much stuck with those people, stuck feeling as if you belonged nowhere. Nowadays you have access to internet to find "your people." What I miss though is how safer everything felt and how many more opportunities there were. And it seems like those are just gonna get worse... The people on top of countries are too preoccupied by their own wealth and advantages to care about lambda citizens. Good luck to you. Not all countries and cities feel the same, a lot still feel like they're in the 90s, so maybe you'll get the opportunity to travel and find your place.

This bassline really is something else. It conveys a feeling so deep, it is hard to put words on it. Blissful despair, maybe ? It honestly might be my favourite bassline, ever. What a sound.

[@garyr1934]

Precisely why I’m sitting down with bass in hand learning it note for note it’s a subtle and crafted to perfection bass line it’s profound while not being one note more complex than needed it’s quite an examPle of bass heaven

The contrast between Johnny Marr’s sunny guitar and Morrisey’s glum and ironic lyrics is part of what makes the Smiths so amazing.

[@Maarttiin]

I love how cheerful the riff sound and the beginning and then a sudden scream of melancholy and desperation that contrast the general rythm of the song. Almost like when we pretend to be happy or content while we struggle inside.

[@spooderguy4083]

How can you not love The Smiths?

[@Farre88]

The Smiths is good, Morrissey is an idiot. I don't think The Smiths would have been that big without Johnny Marr's fantastic musicianship.

[@Noriuxiuke]

Stellar_Fungk Ofcourse they wouldn't have been. It's like Aerosmith without Joe Perry, The Beatles without Paul Mcartney. The lead singer can't make everything on his own. I don't know why Morrissey is an idiot though? (although I don't really like him).

[@Noriuxiuke]

***** umm wow, thanks for enlightening me haha, he sounds like such a douche!

[@kyuuk3tsuki]

Nora Bataityte great band overall for their time. Wildly influential. If Moz wouldn't have been such a prick about everything, they could have extended to the 90's but even so, their legacy for such a short period was great

[@Noriuxiuke]

Completely agreed, I kinda wish they could've extended into 90's and kinda not - this way their songs don't repeat themselves and are original. But if they were playing even now, I wouldn't miss a chance to see them, that would be amazing

[@Haider_414]

This song is a masterpiece

[@360XboxAddiction]

You ever get the dilemma of being really into an older band or artist but can't be arsed trawling through all of their albums to find their better songs, but at the same time feel guilty that you only know their most popular songs?

[@fazera123]

Not with the Smiths but I do get that with The Kinks

[@DirtBlockHouse]

+heroeofthepeople Listen to the albums The Wall, Wish You Were Here, Dark Side of The Moon and Animals. Listen to them start to finish.

[@Kunoichify]

Yes. I didn't get that though with the smiths bc they don't have a lot of albums. I usually just listen to the albums of the 80s and if I like em enough I just expand from there

[@marrm.1509]

+Jordan Wilson Yes, but The Smiths are worth going beyond their most popular songs. And they only have four albums (five if you include Louder Than Bombs because most of the songs on it aren't on the studio albums).
