was good, it is just taking me a minute 2 get used 2 his voice
i kinda had this problem with the cure as well
Under the iron bridge we kissed
And although I ended up with sore lips
It just wasn't like the old days anymore
No, it wasn't like those days
Am I still ill?

it's top 3 on their debut imo, so hypnotic and soothing
Under the iron bridge we kissed
And although I ended up with sore lips
It just wasn't like the old days anymore
No, it wasn't like those days
Am I still ill?
The devil will find work for idle hands to do
I stole and I lied, and why?
Because you asked me to!
But now you make me feel so ashamed
Because I've only got two hands
But I'm still fond of you
songwriting is fantastic, i think i like them
The song is about dismissal from a friend after they find out a secret about you. Although not confirmed, fans like to speculate that the song is based on a true story about Morrissey confessing his feelings to another man, only to be subsequently rejected.
no wonder he hates every1
As stated in the book Mozipedia – The Encyclopedia of Morrissey and The Smiths, in 2005, Morrissey said that this was one of the few songs he’d written which now made him ‘shudder’ and, to date, is the only Smiths song he’s officially disowned.
unbelievable
the f*** is wrong with this guy seriously

save me’s review of the smiths

i am in a love/hate relationship with morrissey’s voice but by the end of the album i found myself being more fond of it than not. he is very expressive even if he doesn’t have the best singing voice, there’s a lot of emotion behind what he’s singing about. the music is a bit insipid but i can look over that 4 the most part considering it’s their debut. it’s not bad i guess i’m just spoiled coming off of listening 2 the cure 4 a week straight, there’s not a lot of variation, they have a particular sound on this album & they stuck 2 it, i can’t fault them 4 that. now, the songwriting is actually excellent. very poetic, a lot of imagery.. i am a bit unclear about what some of these lyrics actually mean but they are great. very esoteric & obscure in meaning.. that’s my favorite kind of poetry. in terms of songwriting i will give them a 8/10.. now let’s move on
top 3 songs
i don’t owe u anything - i can’t 4 the life of me understand why he disowned this song, it’s f***ing beautiful. but whatever, this is my clear cut favorite & easily the best song on the album, at least 2 me anyway. 9/10
reel around the fountain - beautiful. 8/10
the hand that rocks the cradle - it doesn’t make sense how amazing the lyrics are on this song, this must have been cathartic 2 write as much as it was 2 record, very beautiful song. 8/10
least favorite song
miserable lie - i have absolutely no idea what they were going 4 with this 1, it sounds so harsh.. & that continuous falsetto over those drums is something i will have nightmares about, something i will warn little children about, this is what they play on repeat in hell. i hate everything about it, will never listen again.
overall score - 7/10
