There Is A Light That Never Goes Out  performed by The Smiths
Recommended by akiraware [profile]





  28 Oct 02 ·FlyingDutchman1971: Great song!! I have this version and a quite excellent cover version by the Pennsylvania band 'the ocean blue'...
  02 Feb 04 ·jeanette: Another interesting version by Schneider TM vs Kpt. Michi.Gan (retitled The Light 3000). Can be found on Rough Trade Shops: Electronic 01 CD.
How Soon is Now?  performed by The Smiths
Recommended by bleakest harvest [profile]

Possibly The Smiths' most famous moment, contains the wonderful lyric 'and you go and stand on your own, and you leave on your own, and you go home, and you cry and you want to die'. Excellent and unusual guitar work from Johnny Marr, stands out amongst The Smiths catalogue.

from Meat is Murder
available on CD - Hatful of Hollow



  25 Sep 06 ·leonthedog: I can't believe it took so long for someone to post this song! (So why didn't I, right?) Is it too trite to call this an anthem? Anyone self-(dis)respecting teen who heard it in the mid 80's played it over and over and over. Yet you can grow older and not be embarrassed to have cherished it.

Frankly, Mr. Shankly  performed by The Smiths
Recommended by daniela_por [profile]

I consider it a mix between britpop and country. However, it sounds great.

from The Queen Is Dead


Heaven Knows I’m miserable now  performed by The Smiths  1985
Recommended by delicado [profile]

I love this much-derided song. People quote it as proof that the Smiths made morose music for morose people, but if you actually listen, it’s an amazingly uplifting song. Johnny Marr’s guitar is heavenly sounding; it all reminds me that no one else really made pop like the Smiths. What I've just said really completely fails to do the song justice. Ah well...





from Hatful of Hollow, available on CD (WEA)




  19 Apr 01 ·schlemmsy: I quite agree. And this is not due to my love of uplifting house.
  01 Sep 02 ·john_l: Yup, this is the one that made me sit up and take notice ...
  09 Aug 04 ·raumfahrer1rolf: I love this song too. How is a person "miserable" when singing or hearing this song? It shows quite a bit of Morrissey here - he's "miserable" but it all sounds sublime, with a wistful tongue-in-cheekness to it. It's really pretty actually. If this is "misery" then please give me more of it, I'll get along quite nicely!
  11 Jan 11 ·daniela_por: This song will never be forgotten. It's simply great :)
