What is your favorite Smiths song?
>>127574343there is a light that never goes out
>>127574343I grew out of my Smiths phase and I find it corny now. But my fav song at the time was Bigmouth strikes again.
>>127574343impossible question to answer, its not a compeitition
I'VE SEEN THIS HAPPEN IN OTHER PEOPLE'S LIVESAND NOW IT'S HAPPENING IN MINE
>>127574343some girls are bigger than others (demo version)
>>127574343All of them except Vicar in a Tutu and London
>>127574343im more of an album guy
>>127574465This one is good. my favorite was Never Had No One Ever. I like I Have Forgiven Jesus from Morissey's solo work. The Headmaster Ritual is also pretty great. It gets me off a little to imagine Morrissey miserable.
>>127574473>some girls are bigger than others
Last Night I dreamt That Somebody Loved MeI Know It's OverNever Had No One Ever
>>127574343My most favorite is Well I Wonder (because I associate my favorite memory with my mother before I moved away). My other favorites are Panic, girl afraid, this night have opened my eyes, shoplifters of the world, how soon is now, heaven knows I'm miserable now, hand in glove, asleep, barbarism begins at home, death of a disco dancer, girlfriend in a coma, please please let me get what I want, last night I dreamt that somebody loved me and I know it's over. I love the smiths.
>>127574738Pierce's fav song by morrissey is this.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFDzQD-LR80
>>127574343Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now
>>127574391you were never a true fan for having that slop as your favorite
here's my honest takesdidn't think much making this, just went in by feelings
>>127575162NTA but you're downright retarded if you think that Bigmouth Strikes Again is slop
>>127574343Cemetery Gates
>>127575316Nta but it's not even top 20 for the Smiths. It's great but a retarded all time favorite
>>127575275Spotted the biological white women.
>>127575399Lol. Imagine thinking there's some objective top 20 Smiths songs. It's all subjective. You're acting like a retarded teenager who just discovered them. Touch grass.
>>127575656It's a say of saying that it's nowhere close to being their greatest and that is an objective fact. You know nothing about their music and should quit trying to speak on. Also, eat my ass.
>>127575488im a troon actually
>>127575719You sound very mentally ill if you're getting this pressed over nothing. Remember to take your meds. I hope you're just baiting because it's pathetic otherwise.
>>127574343“I Know It’s Over,” which is somewhat well-known (perhaps because it was covered by Jeff Buckley). Their most underrated song is “Nowhere Fast,” and their most underrated line is “Has the Perrier gone straight to my head/Or is life sick and cruel instead?” “Death of a Disco Dancer” is underrated as well.
>>127576927Half a person is also very underrated. I never seen anyone talk about it and it's so great.
>>127574343suffer little children
Suedehead:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0AvuweztG4Q
>>127577170The entire Bona Drag compilation album is an honorary Smiths album because Andy Rourke and Mike Joyce contributed a lot to it. And it even sounds almost exactly like a Smiths album.
>>127575327CEMETEY Gates...Keats and Yates are on your side
>>127577236AhhhCemetry**
>>127574351fpbpThe song that no woman can ever understand.
>>127576948Agree.
>>127577299Every female understands it because mostly women listen to The Smiths.
>>127577855My mom was the one who introduced to the Smiths. And she kissed Morrissey on the cheek when she was young. I honestly think Morrissey has more female fans than male fans irl. R.E.M. on the other hand has mostly only male fans.
>>127576948DO YOU HAVE A VACANCY FOR A BACK SCRUBBER?>>127577855The Smiths are for everyone. Settle down.>>127577887Your mom is lucky to have been so close to Moz. He's a god amongst men. Can confirm that I have never met a female who enjoys REM as someone who adores REM.
>>127574343It's Half a Person these days
>>127574343Still Ill and Last Night I Dreamt that Somebody Loved Me
This Charming Man, because it's about me.
>>127574450>someones personal preference>is impossible to answer
I don't get the London hate. I think the guitar is sick in that song.
>>127574343I HATE morrisey
>>127579572It's one of the two or three songs I dislike by them which is an amazing feat. It just doesn't sound like what I love from the Smiths. Pretty forgettable track musically, in my opinion, and not Moz's best showing lyrically. It just does nothing for me. Always a skip.>>127579591Thanks for sharing. Maybe you'll come around because he's based as fuck
>>127574343Apparently Panic is my most replayed song by them on Spotify for many years now so Panic. You can seriously listen to that song at any time no matter whatever mood you’re in.
Wonderful Woman, Well I Wonder, and Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now. And Accept Yourself.
>>127574343For me it's>I KNOW I'M UNLOVABLLLLLLLLE>YOU DON'T HAVE TO TELL ME>FULL MESSAGE RECEIVED LOUD AND CLEAR, LOUD AND CLEAR>>>127579572I think you need to be bong to "get it". The guitars might not be typical Marr but they fit perfectly to the subject.
>>127579591Yet here you are, posting in this thread. You must have a hectic schedule. How's life shaping up, champ?

>>127574343Some girls are bigger than others. the smiths can be a serious band and it is a breath of fresh air to listen to a song about boobs >>127575275>meat is murder is b tier>i want the one i can't have is c tierShocking. Meat is murder is easily f tier, it drones on and has this cheap piano the whole song. It is preachy, it is easily one of their worst songs out of their whole catalog. But it is your opinion
>>127574343Still ill from john peel sessions
>>127574343some girls are bigger than others
>>127581860it's not about boobs.
>>127581891>some girls are bigger than others>some girls' mothers are bigger than other girls' mothers it was a song about nothing and about boobs. Some girls have bigger boobs and butts than others.
>>127581898"i have *just* discovered"
There is a Light is one of the greatest songs ever written
generally prefer their more upbeat song. marr is a guitar god.
>>127574343Fuck them lot
>>127574343unloveable or i don't owe you anything
>>127574343The Headmaster RitualReel Around the Fountain
>>127575327that song is based
cemetery gates and pretty girls make graves are slept on
>>127581891Yeah it is
>>127574465Good choice. The guitar swell before the chorus is heavenly.It's also marr's favourite smiths song
>>127574343I know it's over, such an emotionally heavy song
>>127574343Hand In Glove (Sandie Shaw version)
Accept Yourself
>>127577225and Vini Reilly is as close of a Marr replacement as you’ll realistically get
>>127583518Morrissey purposefully made Vini Reilly play Marr's "How Soon Is Now" riffs in Disappointed as a diss track to him lol. Say what you will about Morrissey but he knows how to pick his band members.
>>127574343This band's too gay for me. This is as close as I will allow myself to get, and I haven't listened to it in a decade.
>>127583678Yeah, I've moved onto the Replacements and prefer them to The Smiths. I don't know why but nowadays I don't like Morrissey's voice.
>>127575275London is not D tier. The drums on it are so good.
Ask, basically a perfect pop song.
>>127583678I never saw the smiths as too gay because my dad was a fan
>>127584342I have bad news for you about your dad.
What was his best bassline?
>>127584344Yeah he's mexican
>>127584392Can you give an example on why Hispanics love Morrissey so much? They're very homophobic but they seem to not care about that with Morrissey.
>>127584369Barbarism begins at home is his best one
>>127574351Literally me
>>127584534there are a lot of similarities to mexican bolero/mariachi/folk music in terms of lyrical style and vocal delivery.
>>127581860I like how it is preachy and how it annoys people bc what it is preaching is just plain reality, the song is catchy and memorable too>>127584191london is half a songthey made it good in the last performances by playing it together with miserable lie, similiar to what they did with what she said and rubber ring, if the tierlist included those live versions they would be peak
>>127583678Fuck off
>>127581891Definitely about boobs
>>127585000Wasted trips. You love eating meat but only cock.
>>127582229>my feet hurt>this music is really loud
>>127585416astounding reply and argument, exactly what I expected from a disingenuous subhuman that gets triggered by meat is murder
>>127576948I was going to post this one
Girl Afraidhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVy-zkB3ESg
>>127585000It being true or not is not the issue, I don't mind preachy if it is done right. The problem with meat is murder as a song is that it wasn't done right, it has a cheap piano and it has this droning sound, it is one of their weakest and worst tracks ever recorded imo. Just my opinion. You can like it all you want, it is just my opinion on the track. I personally don't like it, but those are just my two cents
>>127587881End of the Family Line is the exact same song done much better.
>>127587929I would agree. It has that down tempo ballad like swing feel, the same that meat is murder was going for. Except it was actually good. Meat is murder has this tinny cheap piano the whole song, the way it does preachiness is not good, this is all personal opinion so what it doesn't do for me it does for someone else. The smiths can do slow songs, they can do serious songs, they can do dreary songs, meat is murder stands as one of the worst songs off their legendary 3 album run of genius back to back. Still ill has some of that preachiness but the song and lyrics are actually good, the way it is pulled off is good. Meat is murder is not
>>127574351this, or Ask
Still Ill. That song holds a place close to my heart. On second place either Asleep or Theres is a Light that never goes out closely followed by Heaven knows im misreable now.
>>127587881>>127587929>>127588009there's nothing wrong with the music, you don't like it because the lyrics make you uncomfortable, but you are the kind of ''person'' that doesn't like being called out on anything so you deflect from the real issue like that, in this life I've seen too many golems like you, and even IF the music was not good it wouldn't even be just to call it one of their worst, the lyrics are moz at his sharpest and the song services the important message well, tl;dr stfu
>>127574343https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rRZ-IxZ46ng
>>127588799I like earth crisis, and you're baiting. So i'll entertain your bait. Earth crisis is militantly vegan, straight edge, and preachy as fuck. It can be grating if you aren't already into it. Most of their songs are preachy and lecturing you about veganism, the animals, to not eat meat and to abstain from doing drugs. I am not a vegan but you don't need to be to listen to music that is militantly vegan that preaches the virtue of veganism and how ethical it is. I enjoy the music because it is good, the execution isn't bad so the music stands on its own and the delivery of the lyrics and message only make it better. I don't like meat is murder because it is not a good song, lyrical topic aside, the music suffers from the preachiness, from the poor lyrics, and the tinny piano and dreary compositionMorrissey channeled his best bono impression for that song, it is truly awful and not a good song
I Know It's Over is their masterpiece imo
>>127586303>triggeredI'm not exactly sure what that means, apart from being something that trannies say. I like you though, so I'm going to eat a big steak in your honour today. I'll cook it rare to enjoy a little bit of blood.
>>127588799>golems like you
The LTB version of These Things Take Time.
>>127576927>nowhere fastfuck yeah, that's my favorite one
>>127576927That country twang Johnny does is underrated. Like when george harrison does it on run for your life or i'll cry instead. Vicar in a tutu also has a country ish sound.
>>127574343Wonderful woman. Reminds me of this bpd chick i knew that drove me insane.
>>127584369You've Got Everything Now
