yr favorite smiths song
 

???

Eat Yourself Fitter

My fave smiths song is a Tie between

The Queen Is Dead

and

Sweet and Tender Hooligan

Probably one of the ones where he's upset about something.

tie between Rusholme Ruffians and Suffer Little Children

Actually, I'm taking it back. "You Give Love a Bad Name" is better.

"Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now"

cemetary gates

can't just pick one (or even three, for that matter:

headmaster's ritual

that joke isn't funny anymore

oscillate wildly

The Queen Is Dead or Asleep

I never got into them that much. They're one of those bands that I got the singles collection and though I like a lot of it, I never felt I needed anything more.

Nearly the same for me

I would go

The Headmaster's Ritual
That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore
There Is A Light That Never Goes Out

still ill

either Rubber Ring/What She Said off of Rank or Paint a Vulgar Picture from Strageways. I was pretty obsessed back in '85.

I don't think I have any Smiths converted to mp3 (they're all on old cassette tapes), and it's been almost 20 years since I've listened to them. a Morrissey show in Dallas ruined me on them for awhile. these days, if I want to feel depressed, I just have to play something by The Flaming Lips.

I miss The Smiths. :(

either Suffer Little Children or I Know It's Over

rubber ring's a great song too. and name me a sadder song than 'this night has opened my eyes'.

say what you want about morrissey, but he's written some brilliant lyrics.

I forgot about

Stop Me If You've Heard This One Before


LOVE that fucking song.

mother, I can feel...the soil falling over my head......

stop me if you think you've heard this one before or what she said or this charming man (self-titled version)... hard to choose.

Girlfriend In A Coma.

Suffer Little Children or Back to the Old House (Hatful of Hollow version) atm.

Not cliche'. conventional wisdom!

I like that song a lot

This Night Has Opened My Eyes

Pretty Girls Make Graves

This Charming Man
There is a Light That Never Goes Out
Sweet and Tender Hooligan
Oscillate Wildly
How Soon is Now
The Queen is Dead

They're one of those bands who don't have one song which stands out as my favourite.

When I saw Morrissey, his version of "Panic" really really blew me away.

As played out as "How Soon Is Now?" might be, that really is an incredible guitar sound.

"Shoplifters of the World Unite", "Girlfriend in a Coma", and "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now" are all incredibly infectious pop too.

I absolutely hated the Smiths in the '80s but by the end of the '90s I was making a living playing them and the fucking Cure too, and I ended up noticing many of the songs were really good after all.

the headmaster ritual or
the queen is dead

Tie between Stop me... and Heaven...

supposedly they might be getting back together for coachella.... being offered a ridiculous amount of money...

edit: and here my favs. big mouth strikes again, frankly mr. shankly (fuck you in advance), rush and the push, there is a light

Miserable Lie
How Soon is Now
The Queen id Dead
Half a Person

This Charming Man
Asleep
Handsome Devil
How soon is now
Big Mouth strikes again

Mmm moz. :love:
heaven knows i'm miserable now
please please etc..
back to the old house
There is a light that never goes out

i think girl afraid is the only song i ever skip through when i listen to some smiths... Oh.. i skip over queen is dead even more than that.

I know its over..
.. I want to list lots of moz songs too. :s

Reel Around The Fountain & Still Ill

Now, there are some Smiths songs in the past that really got to me.
Some songs, especially played by ex boyfriends and the like, really had me clutching my hands up in longing.

Its been years since then but not that long really. Tonight for the first time Morrissey's voice sounds so overdone and overbearing that I cant enjoy the same songs at all!

Perhaps a real fan hears the over-ness of Morrissey and loves the smiths anyways, but for me..Maybe just tonight, anyway.....I couldnt get through a single song.

Panic. I can't help but like this song. Not sure why.

I forgot Bigmouth Strikes Again.
