>tfw you realised How Soon is Now is the gretest rock song ever made
greatest maybe not
but as someone who mostly hates the smiths it is a fucking tune
lol i went through a smiths phase in my teens too
you'll soon be over it :)
>>64416954
>>64416954
>you'll soon be over it
but how soon is now?
>>64416929
i wonder what would happen if someone just walked up and called him steve, would he die of cancer on the spot?
>>64417176
how now is soon?
>>64417219
how noos is woon?
>>64416929
he's right tho
>not even Headmasters Ritual
shit taste in Smiths songs
>>64416929
Damn, rekt. I kinda disagree, but the writing is on point.
The Smiths are shit. Morrissey is a melt and what's his face isn't even a good guitarist.
>>64417451
objectively false. not sure what a melt is.
>>64416954
Well, it was obviously a "tumblr poser sing-me-to-sleep-x-d phase".
>>64416929
This is completely true though
Marr's layering is godlike on this track. I wouldn't say greatest but it's damn good. I would argue that This Charming Man is the better song.
I AM THE SUN
I AM THE AIR
>>64419021
It's heir
How Soon is Now is way too long and repetitive, if you've heard that guitar line once you don't need to hear it for another 4 minutes
There is a Light is the superior GOAT Smiths song
>>64419021
>And the heir
Holy shit, /mu/ has so many plebs who only listen to singles.
Best Smiths song is objectively Paint a Vulgar Picture.
Most artists become a mockery of themselves as they get famous (see bands like Modest Mouse) and turn into a complete bitch to their labels, losing sight of their sound and what they stand for.
What Morrissey did was use one of his last songs on his last albums to spit on the face of every shitty thing he saw happening again and again - that the Smiths' themselves couldn't escape from. He's a true artist and a true rebel. There is not an ounce of irony in this post either.
My favourite smyths is The Boy with the Thorn in His Side
true beauty, no memeboys
all about that What Difference Does it Make desu
WE HAVE BEEN THRU HELL AND HIGH TIDE

>What Difference
You mean You've Got Everything Now.
>No, I've never had a job
>Because I never wanted one
>I've seen you smile
>But I never really heard you laugh
>So who is rich and who is poor? I cannot say
>You are your mother's only son
>And you're a desperate one
Beautiful lyrics.
I Know It's Over is slightly better imo
Hatfull of Hollow is so fucking good mang I can't stop listening to it
Johnnys guitar and those bass lines hnnngg
>>64416901
Headmaster ritual is their best song though
>>64422610
This guy knows. If Headmaster Ritual would have been on Hatful of Hollow it might be the best album of all time.
>>64422741
>>64422610
this
that yodel chorus is pure genius
>>64418437
i used to have a bunch of these
>>64422610
>>64422741
My niggas.
>>64416901
Eh
>>64416954
I kind of agree with this guy. I used to love The Smiths. Now they don't really do anything for me.

Don't be a fucking retard on the internet just because it's easy. You not liking something anymore is not the same as it being for teenagers/younger people, which is a demeaning label to make fun of something.
Morrissey is an incredible songwriter who talks about the music industry, the royal family, being asexual, the moors murders, the education system, the meat industry, fucking a thousand different subjects and eventually depression. He has a thousand influences from poets and other musicians in every song, to the point people have written big, thick books just naming them.
Chances are you never really understood any of it, and that's alright, but refrain from commenting then.

this is true
AS THE RAIN FALLS HARD

>>64417399
This guy gets it
Everyone ITT is wrong' it's obviously Queen Is Dead
>tfw the intro still gives me chills
>not STILL III
spit in your eyes faggot
>>64416929
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
I prefer the cover version that served as the theme song for charmed.
>>64426506
Only if it's the version on Rank
>>64421678
Yep. But so are five or six other ones. How Soon Is Now isn't that great, it just got played in clubs the most
i wish i liked the smiths, i really like guitar music but i just cant enjoy it
>>64428035
have you listened to their best album(the Queen is Dead)?
>>implying their first album isn't the best with songs like reel around the fountain, this charming man, miserable lie, what difference does it make etc
>>64416929
He's right, Ramones were influencial, important even, but their music was always garbage.
>>64416901
Lol
>le tremolo distorted riff
>>64416929
le wrong generation meme
at least faggots got an education and wrote well written bullshit back then, rather than spamming the you tube comments with rambling streams of consciousness between masturbating and going to high school.
>>64416901
>There Is a Light That Never Goes Out
>>64428918
yeah, i mean it was fine, just nothing stood out to me as particularly catchy/good. i think i need to listen to it a few more times
>>64416954
I know it's over, still I cling.
