First listen to The Smiths How Soon Is Now.
That Marr guy is a bit good isn't he?
The Smiths were an English rock band formed in Manchester in 1982, composed of singer Morrissey, guitarist Johnny Marr, bassist Andy Rourke, and drummer Mike Joyce. Morrissey and Marr formed the band's songwriting partnership. The Smiths are regarded as one of the most important acts to emerge from 1980s British independent music.
The Smiths signed to the independent label Rough Trade Records in 1983 and released their first album, The Smiths, in 1984. Their focus on a guitar, bass and drum sound, fusing 1960s rock and post-punk, was a rejection of the synth-pop sound predominant at the time. Several Smiths singles reached the top 20 of the UK Singles Chart, and all their studio albums reached the top five of the UK Albums Chart, including the number-one album Meat Is Murder (1985). From that time, they bolstered their sound with the use of keyboards while still keeping guitar as the main instrument. They achieved mainstream success in Europe with The Queen Is Dead (1986) and Strangeways, Here We Come (1987), which both entered the top 20 of the European Albums Chart.[6] In 1986, the band briefly became a five-piece with the addition of guitarist Craig Gannon.
Internal tensions led to the Smiths' breakup in 1987, followed by public lawsuits over royalties. The members each said that the band would never reunite and refused all offers to do so.

I've always loved this song.
Class .. just pure class. Marr's guitar work is ace coupled with Morrissey's lyrics is pure paradise. His lyrics are the soundtrack to my life. Personally 'Frankly Mr Shankly' and Cemetary Gates' just edge this for being my Smiths favourite. Cheers for this Squire !!!!
Thanks for your great reaction, please do more Smiths and Morrissey love from Australia!
Try - Barbarism begins at home by the Smiths…
Yes - Morrisey is quite poetic… sometimes using archaic language, as this charming man
“Punctured bicycle on a hillside desolate..”
Depeche Mode is in the same vein.
How about exploring some Billy Joel and Meat Loaf? Sting? The Animals? Nina Simone? Fleetwood Mac? Just a few suggestions.😻. Really enjoying your reactions!
Think the rift was used on a tune called (I think) hippy shake, or something like that
