The Smiths - How Soon Is Now (Manchester Mix)

[@christinekearney2652]

How soon is now. Top 10 song of all time for me. If you read you rock

[@bogeythedog163]

You may be right.

[@ZipLineFine]

The guitar literally sends the good kind of chills throughout my body- from head to toe.. I was fortunate to see the Smiths in concert in the 1980's in Houston Tx.. One of the BEST concerts I've ever seen and I''ve seen a LOT... There come those awesome chills again & again... Fricking YEAH....

[@SenkaBandit]

Hell yeah, Houston!

[@bogeythedog163]

Yeah. I feel that frisson down my spine too

[@pedrogappalli4489]

Johnny is a genius.

[@jennapherhague5728]

One of the true classics over the last 50?years…kids listen to the Sniths like they’re a new band!!😢

[@carlospucarinho]

The Best Version!

[@Crimsonzs]

I can’t even listen to the original. To me this is the best version. I love the build up to the track because the instrumental is the best part of the song.

[@chuyhighman6927]

Yeah, Me Too!! Love It, Love It, Love It!!! d((~___~))b

[@salinacarter1342]

Ditto

[@Mavarla]

@Crimsonzs You hit the nail on the head: ditto, this fabulous, brilliant mix has ruined me for the original and that "build-up" is just PERFECT. This DJ is a musician, a brilliant one.

[@eurandicorvelloantunesdeol5392]

The best version ever!

[@davidthomas9190]

Wow, I am a HUGE Smiths fan and can't believe I've never heard this mix. I've always looked for good extended mixes of this song and this one is the best. Nice work, thank you!

Love this but it's totally criminal where that ad is placed

[@arthurphillips6315]

I am the son; I am the heir,,, to a shyness that is criminally vulgar - says it all really!

[@patriciahalliday8920]

That lyric Said a lot to me in my teens. Very insecure at the time. I am married now with 2 children and 5 grand children but boy did this song speak to me.

[@billymuellerTikTok]

@@patriciahalliday8920 me too, but in my twenties

[@billymuellerTikTok]

I had the lyrics wrong all this time - I always thought this was a religious song was about Jesus Christ during his 40 days in the desert being tempted by the devil with Satan singing "I am the sun, and the air of a shyness that is criminally focused, I am son and heir of nothing in particular" (meaning there is nothing on Earth worth anything, especially the cold hearted humans, and after the God dies the Heavens will be empty just as Hell is) and then Satan adds "When you say it's gonna happen now When exactly do you mean? See I've already waited too long And all my hope is gone" (meaning that Satan has been cast out of Heaven/Eden since the beginning, forever is taking forever, when will forever end and His final judgment come and we (the angels and fallen angels) can get rid of these humans once and for all? and he is questioning God's way). Christ replies "You shut your mouth. How can you say I go about things the wrong way? I am human and I need to be loved just like everybody else does" Later on, Christ is dying on the cross and says the same words Satan said to him to God the Father "When you say it's gonna happen now When exactly do you mean? See I've already waited too long And all my hope is gone" (meaning My God My God why have you abandoned me?). ....at the bridge the line "There's a club if you'd like to go, You could meet somebody who really loves you." is Satan tempting Jesus to go with him to a nightclub (Earth) to pick up women (humans) and offering to be his wingman. Then Satan says "So you go and you stand on your own And you leave on your own And you go home and you cry And you want to die" because Jesus is too shy to approach the women and talk to them, buy them drinks and dance and instead and he just stands on the sideline like a wallflower watching. Then Jesus goes back to Heaven without anyone (not saving anyone) and cries all night while Satan is bringing lots of women (humans) back to his pad (Hell) and having a great time.

[@arthurphillips6315]

@@billymuellerTikTok i think we're probably both right billy. I can see the criminally vulgar aspect from my own upper middle class angst, and i think there might be some of that in there. but according to aldous huxley in the devils of loudun, witches would be subjected to "the question" both ordinary and extraordinary...basically, ordinary meant "are you a witch?" and extraordinary meant "are you a witch?" with thumbscrews. If you "passed" this test you would be required to accept that jesus christ was "now"..presumably meaning that any physical torture that would be visited upon you hereafter was entirely justified...we'd have to ask the m man to find out but i'm guessing he'd say we're both rigbt!

[@ThatFilmisGnarly]

can i get a history lesson on this mix (and any other mixes)? Who made this "Manchester Mix"? is it "new"? Was it ever released on an album? is this a technically "house mix" or something for DJs at the time to use? im a nerd and i crave information, help a brotha out.

[@djmmppm]

Me

[@yoyoyoyo1826]

As a dj you can use whatever you want, even if you play “ house”. Moodymann for one played come together by the beatles, followed by redbone, followed by some crazy trax. Do whatever your heart tells you (and your audience). About the mix... i don’t know. Except that i like. Great mix keep em coming
