The Smiths - Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others (Live) [Official Audio]

[@shnoogums1]

I’ve spent decades trying to interpret this song and I’ve come to the conclusion that some girls are bigger than others

[@2isceez]

I was at this show, tenth row from the stage and 9 months pregnant. I still remember so much from that night and I also remember a very nervous security guy who told me to not to have the kid tonight, lol. I had her the next day and all three of my kids were raised on the Smiths music

I cant explain how much I love this version. Johnny’s riff, Andy’s bass, Mike’s drum, and of course Morrissey’s smooth, rich, voice. All of these make me feel so truly alive. It gives me the most wonderful nostalgia. The song is so simple, it’s like they just found a fact and stated it. I’m considered a chubby girl, and when people make fun of me for that, I always find myself coming back to this song. Just hearing morrissey, my favorite singer, say “some girls are bigger than others” is enough to stop my crying. It’s currently 5:41 pm, Tuesday, July 5th, 2022. I’m happy. To The Smiths, thank you.

Johnny Marr's guitar sounds like a choir of angels, heavenly

[@glorf3558]

He hated the lyrics.

[@Yukiguni1985]

Agree with you. Anyway, don't forget that beautiful bass! Sorry, I'm fond of bass 😅

[@user-vz3hq6hd5h]

this is too beautiful I'm crying. I wanna live this intro forever. perfect guitar, perfect bass, perfect drum, and beautiful voice

[@nikolaspasenovic7798]

Outro as well

[@jmodyrts25]

The little slides and dynamics in the guitar riff is so much more audible in this performance than the album version, which to me makes it so much more emotional and beautiful.

[@TheInfamousLegend27]

that's cos there's just one guitar line since you can't really layer guitars live lol. but yeah, it's so good :D

[@trewhizz]

This is by far the best version. Simply because there's an extra verse which makes the song longer

[@datdude3327]

Fun fact: they added the extra verse just so this 1 and only live version could showcase Johnny’s fabulous guitar riff for longer!

[@elvissystemski5767]

Some versions are longer then other.

[@richardgordon4673]

An astonishingly haunting version. Top shelf!

[@ryanodonnell533]

One of the most beautiful riffs ever written, coupled with some of the most poetic lyrics. I know some consider the lyrics a little bit too jokey against the wonderful instrumental but it works. The Smiths still remain one of the best of all time

[@unleafed5038]

people forget that in poetry there is a lot of line repitition

[@linsayspence7070]

Just like Anthony said to Cleopatra.❤

[@nathanathome]

This version includes the extra verse at 3 minute mark: On the shop floor, there's a calendar, as obvious as snow, as if we didn't know. Some girls are bigger than others, some girls are bigger than others...

[@kevinatkinson636]

Some girls mothers are bigger than other girls.... Mothers..... 😂❤️IT....

Used to think this was one of their more "silly" tracks. Now it's fighting with a couple others for that #1 spot Ah, smiths. I love you.

[@robfalgiano]

It’s very mysterious. And intended as such. The music is interesting and melodic and then the morrissey lyric gets to the heart of the human / animal intellect, but with great ambiguity.

[@ryandunson5387]

My God ,I have loved The Smith's from the first time I heard them. I'm 55 now and the music is just as magical as ever. Why oh why did you guys break up. If it wasn't for The Smith's I would have died a long time a ago. I had no one that loved me ever they were the only thing that kept me going from day to day and even to this day my cry is Please ,Please Please let me get what I want this time.
