The Smiths

[YorkshireBengal]

(10-06-2015, 05:17 PM)WhoDeyWho Wrote: I was sort of late to "The Smiths", but after really listening to them a few years back, they are one of my favorite rock bands of all time.

Marr's riffs were a perfect fit for the uniquely sarcastic and longing voice of Morrissey.

My only wish is that they didn't absolutely hate each other so that a reunion tour could be scheduled.  I'd gladly pay a few hundred dollars to see them perform live.  

My favorite tracks are:

"There is a light that never goes out"  
"This Charming Man"
"The Boy with a Thorn in his side"
"How soon is now"
"Some Girls are Bigger than Others"
"Panic"
"Barbarism Begins at Home"
"Bigmouth Strikes Again"

So happy to have someone else as appreciative of their work as me. Personally Paint a Vulgar Picture is my favourite track. Some brilliant songs in your list though mate. I'd also add Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now
