@troilocastillo3474 I certainly can't argue with that. When I first heard it, I played it on repeat for over an hour.

The only song on the LP they never played live. Because, Johnny Marr said, playing it in the context of a raucous concert environment would've "been like kicking a puppy to death"!

"Well I Wonder" and the non-album single "Asleep" are my two favourite Smiths ballads. Musically, "Well I Wonder" is gentle, dreamy and soulful, with its beautiful guitar arpeggios and silky bass line. Lyrically, the mood is disillusioned and disenchanted. Morrissey's high-pitched vocals are almost like a desperate plea to the object of his desire.

One of Andy Roukes most melodic Basslines in their catalogue. You’re gonna enjoy the next one Barbarism Begins At Home. You should definitely hit the first album next or Strangeways Here We Come.

Loving all the love for this song. It's such a beautiful track and it's one of my faves. It's hard to choose! I have a lovely memory (well, lovely to me anyway 😅) of listening to this song on my way home one day. As you know, Florida is weird and can be raining in your front yard and not in the back lol. So I'm driving one day, listening to this song, and it wasn't raining. The exact moment the rain started in the song was the exact moment I turned onto the road that led me home and into a pocket of rain. The coolest coincidence ever!

One of the most lugubrious voices in his county and/or high school...whichever comes first. Obviously. Have you done their big ass hits "How Soon Is Now" and "Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Le Me Git What I Want"? It was in "16 Candles" I think. The first one was on heavy repeat at dance clubs at the time, and would never fail to get people on their feet. Then you would dance lugubriously like Ally Sheedy might dance if she danced.
