I may be the forums designated Smiths and Morrissey freak, so here's a question I must ask...

What is your favorite Smiths or Morissey song?


Sorry I can't name one, love them all.

The Smiths: "Boy With A Thorn In His Side", "How Soon Is Now", "Panic", "Ask", "Work Is A Four Letter Word", and "Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want"


Morrissey:  "Everyday Is Like Sunday" and "Suedehead".

No I am. ;) I love them a lot!! Morrissey's been an absolute saviour to me. :)

Anyway, here are my favourite Smiths and Morrissey songs.

The Smiths: Everything except for Death Of A Disco Dancer, Death At One's Elbow, and Golden Lights (but the latter wasn't written by Morrissey so he's forgiven)

Morrissey: November Spawned A Monster, Every Day Is Like Sunday, Suedehead, Now My Heart Is Full, Glamourous Glue

Absolutely Vile

No way! It's me, It's me hehe  ;)

If Criz returns she may have something to say about that !  :o ;D

Uh Oh!...it's the battle of the Smiths fans  :o

;D



SmithsGirl

Oh right, I forgot about Criz!! Well, Criz and I were here first, so nyah!! :P (Hehehe...just kidding.) ;D

Absolutely Vile

No way! I am the biggest Smith's fan lol.  ;D

My favourite tracks are Panic and Frankly Mr Shankly.

My favourite Morrissey solo efforts are Suedehead and Everyday is like Sunday.

Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want

and the smiths fans take over the forum!  :D

SmithsGirl

no way... I'm the bigger fan... I have all their albums on CD and their first US album on vinyl...

though I'm still a bigger Duranie than a Moz fan...

"Stoip Me If You've Heard This One Before" and "Miserable Lie"

I always liked the lines:

I look at yours, you laugh at mine
And "love" is just a miserable lie

no way... I'm the bigger fan... I have all their albums on CD and their first US album on vinyl...


I have:

- All their albums on vinyl, including BOTH the US and UK releases of their debut album (the UK release being without "This Charming Man"), and also The Peel Sessions on vinyl
- A misprinted interview picture disc (on vinyl) of The Smiths (it says it's from 1981, but in fact I believe it was from 1983)
- "Shoplifters Of The World Unite" 7 inch single on blue vinyl
- 12" singles: "The Boy With The Thorn In His Side" (US release) and "The Headmaster Ritual" (Dutch release)
- For Morrissey, I have the 12" of "The Last Of The Famous International Playboys," and Viva Hate, Bona Drag, Your Arsenal, Vauxhall And I, and My Early Burglary Years on CD waiting to be replaced by vinyl, plus the CD Singles '88 - '91 box set

I am looking for a copy of Meat Is Murder WITHOUT "How Soon Is Now." My copy has it unlisted on the cover, but on the record label itself, it's listed as the first song on Side 2.

Nyah!! :P ;) ;D

Absolutely Vile

Bigmouth Strikes Again
There is a Light That Never Goes Out
Panic

Actually I haven't heard a Smiths song that I don't like!  ;D

I think for me it'd have to be a toss-up between Sweet and Tender Hooligan and Is It Really So Strange. But I really like them all!  :) (except Golden Lights, of course)

'Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now'...(no comments please...!) - delightful guitar riff on that...

'Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now'...(no comments please...!) - delightful guitar riff on that...


Ooh, that song has one of my favourite lines in it:

"In my life, why do I give valuable time to people who don't care if I live or I die?" :D

Favorite Smiths songs impossible to choose you say?  So it seems to me.  Well, I ran the data anyway, and the answer turned out to be:
RUBBER RING
There's about a 20-way tie here, but what clinched it for "Rubber Ring" are the lyrics:
The passing of time, and all of its sickening crimes, is making me sad again.
But don't forget the songs that made you cry, and the songs that saved your life.
Yes, you're older now, and you're a clever swine, but they were the only ones who ever stood by you...
For me, the "songs" are Smiths songs, so it's a Smiths song about why I should forever love the Smiths, so that's a winner!

There Is A Light That Never Goes Out

From the Smiths, I guess my favorite song would be Bigmouth Strikes Again.
From Morrisey solo, I guess my favorite song would be Last of the Famous International Playboys..

There Is A Light That Never Goes Out

and  Bigmouth Strikes Again

and

Suedehead

"Bigmouth Strikes Again" and "Panic"

Favorite Smiths Song: "This Charming Man" is great, but then there is "Ask".   :P

i think with the smiths in particular, depending on the day and what mood one is in, what your favorite song could easily change.

Favorite Morissey Song: "Our Frank", but then "Certain people i Know" is great too. :P

There Is A Light That Never Goes Out

"How Soon Is Now"

Well I have returned and am trying to login but it wont let me?

If anyone knows what's happened and why it wont let me back in then please let me know!

Anyway, as some of you may remeber I am a very VERY big fan of the Smiths! My favourites constantly change but for now I'd have to say 'I Know It's Over' 'The Hand That Rocks The Cradle' 'Back To The Old House' for the slowy ones, then, 'Girl Afraid' 'Half A Person' 'What Difference Does It Make'!

Sorry I can't name one, love them all.

Same here.  8)

umm... " the boy with the thorn in his side", " bigmouth strikes again", " how soon is now", " last night i dreamt that somebody loved me"  ;)

I kind of like This Charming Man the best :)

Asleep.  Not the most cheerful lyrics (in fact, I'd put this song at the top of the "songs to kill yourself to" list), but I've always liked the music.  If you cut the vocals out, it would actually be a great song for helping young children to fall asleep.

William it was really nothing.

Oh right, I forgot about Criz!! Well, Criz and I were here first, so nyah!! :P (Hehehe...just kidding.) ;D

Absolutely Vile


Hehe, we were here first! I may have been gone for a lttle while, but I have returned!!

I posted earlier some of my favourites. I do love 99% of their stuff- probably only dislike 'Golden Light's !! :)

wow and i thought me and my friend at school fought about moz too much. lol  :)
