favourite smiths track

[William of Walworth]

I had no idea that was actually you! Respect.

I've had songs written about me, but never quite so high profile.

 

[MarkMark]

Charming Man

 

[sheothebudworths]

What She Said and Stop Me if You Think You've Heard This One Before, neither of which get played round here, unlike This Charming Man, which I am fair sick of hearing every time I go out.

Where do you go when you go out?

 

[articul8]

Smiths:

I know its over
Jeanne
Last night I dreamt
Rusholme Ruffians

Mozzer:

I've changed my plea to guilty
Used to be a sweet boy
Michael's Bones
Angel, angel, down we go together
Disappointed
Irish Blood, English Heart

(could go on for ages like this!)

 

[cathal marcs]

The Version of Shoplifters of the world on Mozza live at Earls Court s very good love the drums on it

 

[Hollis]

I dunno Handsome Devil plus the obvious What Difference Does It Make

Then there's What She Said, London, Big Mouth..

.. ho hum.

 

[nino_savatte]

love that one.

It's great isn't it? Especially because of the line "I was bored before I even began".

 

[dirtysanta]

So what difference does it make?

Just for Jonny Marrs guitar riff , if anything

 

[_angel_]

I ... don't know every single Smiths track but 'I know it's over' stands out. And rubber ring. And, oh there's more.

 

[rennie]

Frankly mr shankly always makes me laugh. gotta love it!

 

[cornflakegirl]

I love most em...very few Smiths songs I dislike.

Probably have to say:

What difference does it make? ('I got confused I killed a horse...')
Ask
Shoplifters of the world unite
Sweet and tender hooligan x

 

[poului]

ytjvtyui6i6

at the moment it's "william it was really nothing".

 

[R.I.C.O.]

The Smiths:

Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now
This Charming Man
The Boy With The Thorn In His Side
Panic
William, It Was Really Nothing
Ask
Meat Is Murder

Morrissey:

Suedehead
I Have Forgiven Jesus (just for that title - how stereotypical can you get )
Every Day Is Like Sunday

 

[Major Tom]

Some Girls are Bigger than Others
You Just Haven't Earned it Yet Baby
Hand In Glove
Last Night I Dreamt that somebody loved me
paint a vulgar picture


that's today - I'll undoubtedly have a completely different list tomorrow.

 

[mangakitten]

There's so many excellent tracks on this thread, half of which I'd almost forgotten about!! I think I might have to have a Smiths listening frenzy when I get home tonight in honour of it.

 

[Batley]

As Anthony said to Cleopatra, as he opened a crate of ale, 'Oh i sayyy'

 

[articul8]

What difference does it make? ('I got confused I killed a horse...')

sorry for being such a trainspotter on this one but that line was from "Is it really so strange?"

Also, for extra anorak points, I forgot to add one of my all time fave Mozzer songs "The Edges are No Longer Parallel" (Roy's Keane B-side) for the line "There's no law of averages here/ when you feel down then you're going to stay down/ My only mistake is i'm hoping"

 

[Dubversion]

Rubber Ring is a killer, but i'd end up having to opt for I Know It's Over as being the purest distillation of what they were about

 

[Major Tom]

but i'd end up having to opt for I Know It's Over as being the purest distillation of what they were about

yeah but which one is your favourite?

 

[Dubversion]

yeah but which one is your favourite?

that one, for the reasons i gave..

 

[starfish]

Oscillate Wildly.
Just to be different.

 

[Major Tom]

Oscillate Wildly.
Just to be different.

not the smiths - not really - its just the other three

 

[starfish]

I did say it was just to be different.

 

[mk12]

There Is A Light...

best
song
ever

 

[WasGeri]

Reel Around The Fountain
The Hand That Rocks The Cradle
This Night Has Opened My Eyes
I Want The One I Can't Have
That Joke Isn't Funny Anymor
I Know It's Over
There Is A Light That Never Goes Out
Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me
Paint A Vulgar Picture
Jeane
Everyday Is Like Sunday
November Spawned A Monster

This night has opened my eyes

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

Is there anyone else out there who hates the Smiths?

I might have to start one of those godforsaken "Crap/Not Crap" polls..

This is one band which people who usually have similar tastes to me, love and I hate...

 

[Chester Copperpot]

The smiths rock and no mistake!

Some one start a poll!



A few of my favs are

'Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now'
'How Soon Is Now'
'Bigmouth Strikes Again'
'Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before'
'There is a light'
'Panic'
