Goodbye Andy, we love you. Rest in peace ❤️

[@gabrielabarros2036]

they are all so handsome

[@59revilo13]

Amazing to think that this is in 1983 when Morrissey and Marr had only met the year before. 4 years on from this the band no longer existed, incredible to think how much they achieved in such a short space of time. Has there ever been another band become so successful and iconic in such a short space of time?

[@sorryimsosad]

I’m 20 and even I have yet to find one. I love the 1975 and see them similarly, but The Smiths were really something else. I could only hope to find a band of this caliber in my generation

[@59revilo13]

Imyouthcollective 1975 have already been around 7/8 years haven’t they, these guys were done and dusted with 4 studio albums and 3 compilation records in a little under 5 years, I’d love to say otherwise but I doubt we’ll ever see anything like them again, one of a kind

[@HumansFreshlyBorn]

The Beatles were only around about 10 years and they left the biggest impact on music ever, but the Schmitts aren’t too far behind.

9:50 The expression of lonliness and sadness in the face of Morrissey is so clear and contagious, cause we identify ourselves with it in some moment of life, or many moments perhaps

[@jamesevans5992]

You also need to understand the grief that any fan was given when they said they loved the smiths...’what..you like a bloke with flowers out his arse’ it was hard in 83 to you were a smiths fan believe me!
