Girlfriend In A Coma was released in August 1987 and is taken from the album "Strangeways, Here We Come".
Lyrics
Girlfriend in a coma, I know
I know, it's serious
Girlfriend in a coma, I know
I know, it's really serious
There were times when I could
Have murdered her
But you know, I would hate
Anything to happen to her
No, I don't want to see her
Do you really think
She'll pull through
Do you really think
She'll pull through
Do
Girlfriend in a coma, I know
I know, it's serious
My, my, my, my, my, my baby, goodbye
There were times when I could
Have strangled her
But you know, I would hate
Anything to happen to her
Would you please
Let me see her
Do you really think
She'll pull through
Do you really think
She'll pull through
Do
Let me whisper my last goodbyes
I know, it's serious
#TheSmiths #GirlfriendInAComa #StrangewaysHereWeCome
The writing in this is genius. It's impossible to know if he's being sincere or is secretly glad this girl is in a coma.
I always interpreted it as a failed homicide attempt... in the end he wants to "whisper his last goodbyes" (kill her for good) because the doctors feel like she could pull through and get him in trouble.
Yeah, he's worked up this heart aching scenario and then - WHAT? She's gonna get better....Noooo.
I agree it is a double entendre song like a lot of old calypso or George Formby era songs. Old Smiths and Morrissey songs have a lot of humour.
Huh... Interesting... I always found this song hilarious because I think he does a shit job of hiding his intent 😂🥰
This song is a hitter. Discovered it thanks to the Bumblebee movie
My own sister, huge Morrissey fan, passed away last fall. In her hospice room I had so many Smiths songs playing. You never know how it will be until t's yours
Sorry to hear that. My condolences to you. May she rest in peace.
🙏🏼🌺🕊️🕯️🌺🙏🏼
Im so sorry for your loss😓😓bless her soul
❤
I'm so sorry about your sis. It's only words I know but you'll see her again.
The Smiths are my favorite band of all time. I love the combination of Morrissey’s sad lyrics with the upbeat sound of the band behind him. Just fucking amazing all around.
I dont think his lyrics were deliberately sad,they were just life observations which are often sad.Genius.
There indeed this sadness to his work though.@@neilgutteridge6405
The lyrics are absolutely fucking ass!!! Just an undeniably catchy song
@@jonathanharte6959 If you think a hilarious and sarcastic song like this sucks then I bet your version of good looks like Adam and the Ants.
@@ClemboI never once said I didn’t like the song. In fact, I really like the song. However, the lyrics are terrible. That’s all 😂
Johnnie's guitar on this is the glue that holds the song together......beautiful
the rhythm section is every bit as important. so mike joyce and andy rourke could only have made the Smiths sound the way they did every bit as much as Johnny Marr
@@LdevArtThe guitar is the hook in all The Smiths songs, no Johnny Marr no Smiths
@@garyjameswilson you have no idea what you are talking about. barbarism begins at home is all about the bass
This is the happiest, darkest song in history, but it's absolutely brilliant. To write a song with these lyrics in G major is funny as heck. Love the Smiths.
There's a light that never goes out is equally iconic. Honestly it's hard for me to choose which one is best 🙂🙂🙂
A masterpiece. I wasn't a Smiths fan when this came out. Only heard it decades later and immediately loved it. Such an interesting and lovely song.
Mojo Nixon's version is better.
Same with me
definitely one of my favorite smiths songs
If you're from England and of a certain age you will appreciate how The Smiths used cultural British icons in loads of their videos and record sleeves 100% Brits - love em for it
Even if you’re not
Imagine if your life was like a black-and-white British film from the 60s and Morrissey's full-colour head and shoulders occasionally floated in with some melancholic song-narration.
You mean to say that your life *Isn't* like that..?
Like a beautiful nightmare! But then again No!!!
I would love that.
leave the weed alone.
I recognize thus blonde actress and am desperately trying to recall that Sixties' movie she starred in. Anyone?
😃I am a Dutch native speaker, my English teachers sucked. Glad The Smiths, and especially Morissey, delivered such meaningful and well pronounced lyrics. In the eighties they meant the world to me and they are still relevant.
The british pronnunciation is very cool. I really like and enjoy when I listen british bands hehe
This song kills me everytime I listen to it.
I had a best friend, her name was Claudia. We grew up together and did a lot of things together.
Part of her childhood, she lived sick and almost die, but she got out of all that illness shit and we lived our teenage wildly and had a lot of fun. This year however she passed away and it cuts me real deep now that I'm writing this. "The Smith" in particular, were one of our favorite bands, we used to lay down on her bed and listen to the smiths and other bands on a rainy day, those moments together, were priceless for me! I used to see her sleeping and thought "I love her and we'll be together for so long".
This song in particular reminds me, when she was on her 19th birthday and in coma, I was not allowed to go see her, cause' she was really going away, eleven days later, she left this world and I never told her happy birthday or even saw her! With tears in my eyes! I want to share this comment with all of you ! And say that I miss her and will forever love her and never forget her.
Yossy Rada Damn...Im so sorry for you...
Yossy Rada Sorry for the loss of a good friend. such lovely memories of the Smiths.
Yossy Rada i lost the best friend I ever had immediately after my 13th birthday. I feel you homeslice. ❤ nobody will ever compare but thats okay cause everyones cool shit in their own way. I wish you many happy years to come ❤ and many more fond memories to make.
I am so sorry for your loss. You speak so lovingly of her...a beautiful tribute to someone taken too soon. She knew how much you loved her. It comes through in your loving words💙Loss is a subject I am far too familiar with😢I hope your wonderful memories will bring you peace one day. She sounds like a remarkable person. Sending you healing hugs🤗
hmm real convincing. how do you expect me to believe that
" ... but you know, I would hate anything to happen her..." So much true tenderness, love, care, in his voice when he sings this, brings a tear in my eye.
I love the sarcasm of this song. He'd just "hate" anything to happen to her. LOL! No one can sing a song about wanting someone to die sound so upbeat and pleasant like Morrissey can. A true original.
@Hipster Fortress Morrissey is a master of sarcasm in many of his songs.
He loved her, but she got on his nerves. That's pretty commonplace for most of us with the ones we love..
supposedly this song talks about AIDS
@@TheClaumigue That was the opinion of one journalist.
By the comments I read before I thought I was the only crazy humano laughing at the sarcasm. 😂🤣
This is the first song of The Smiths that my coworker recommended to me, ever since I'm always grateful to her for introducing me to such Legends.
This is for you, if luck let you see this one.
To tell you the truth, talking with you about random topics and making fun of our unfortunate lives and work makes me appreciate you more. Thank you, Madam! 🤗❤️
Just sent this to my ex-wife....despite the animosity and somewhat despicable things she did, I still adore her...I joke about dark things happening to her, but I know I'd be crushed. This guy is genius.
My ex wife ended up on unsolved mysteries...don't ask me why😂
Exactly what I'm going through right now. I'm dying inside. I never had a girl like this. She is unique. She healed my broken heart. One of my angels. God stop letting the things I love get taken away. She is all I need
What happened to her in the end??
Hey are u ok now ? What happened ?
I hope she pulled through.
The Smiths. One of the best songs in their lineup of remarkable hits. New wave never dies.
Smiths are not new wave
@@fromouterspace21 indeed, they are post punk
New wave? 😂😂😂😂
The Smiths are the only thing that actually keeps me going, I just resonate with the lyrics so much. I'm clinically depressed but I fear I'd be so much worse if it wasn't for Morrissey and Marr.
MackAttack 27 Be strong. You're never alone my friend. I know it's not easy to be happy, but one day you will be. I really think YOU'LL pull through.
MackAttack 27 Have you considered that it might be Morrissey making you miserable in the first place?
Try with Placebo dear and never give up
Jonathan Denny hahaha
+MackAttack 27 Chaos reigns over us all.
Girlfriend in a coma, I know

She'll pull through
Do you really think
She'll pull through
Do ooh ooh ooh
Girlfriend in a coma, I know

My, my, my, my, my, my baby, goodbye
There were times when I could
Have strangled her
But you know, I would hate
Anything to happen to her
Would you please
Let me see her
Do you really think
She'll pull through
Do you really think
She'll pull through
Do ooh ooh ooh
Let me whisper my last goodbyes
I know, it's serious
It's bye, bye, baby goodbye.
I didn't know Andy Rourke was ill but so saddened to hear he passed. He will be sorely missed.
I also didn't know he had cancer, and I was in shock
finding out about his passing.
RIP Andy. Thank you for the tunes and those unforgettable bass lines!

Heard this for the first time right when it was released and was hooked on The Smith’s immediately. I was about 19 and now I’m 51 and still hooked. How about you?
Nope. His voice still sounds like breaking glass scratched across a chalkboard sung by a deaf man trying to express disgust verbally. But - to each his own.
I must know every smiths song off by heart 👍👍
I’m 35 and ever since the movie, perks of being a wallflower, love them. I can’t stand today’s music of mumble rap and auto-tune “pop” songs.
45
@@NaeroK87 you're not looking deep enough into music. Ignore any charts or media coverage and look for some underground artists theirs some real gems especially in rock at the moment
i never looked at this song as comedic . No one at the time . nor now , sings about things like this yet all of us who first heard it then or now relate .
I song this song in the USMC barrack..they looked at me like I lost my mind..until I played the cassette...next thing you know Sarge is humming the song..lol
When I think about The Smiths, this is the song I always go back to. It’s just perfect.
Just returned from holiday with my elderly mother. How lucky am I this man lost his Irish man in the last two years. And all the joy he gave us trough his wonderful music, thank you.
Great song. Beautiful melody combined with Morrisey's handsome face - a killer!
The cellos gives me chills❤✊️
What a talented and attractive man. Most honest performer alive. So much respect for him.
The Smiths changed my life. Their music and especially the words were out of this world. 👍🏾💪🏾😁
My favorite The Smiths song ................... greetings of Peru 🇵🇪 ...
THAT uplifting music & THOSE lyrics, brilliantly catchy - literally a perfect song - short, sweet & to the point...
The sheer amount of sass in the face and voice at 1:39
Hats off to Johnny Marr for this diddy , and wonderful guitar piece.... made me take notice of Mr.Marr and his finesse on the acoustic.
Awesome song for then an now...I sure miss having good tunes like this...Ty youtube for existing
Most of Morrissey's songs come with phrases from movies back in the sixties and seventies. It's not depressing, it's inspired.
Hadir selepas baca komen di TikTok, lagu The Times - Gadisku dalam koma. Rancak pulak lagu dalam English ni. 🙊😆
Pura melancolia. The Smiths foi uma banda genial.
This song has always cracked me up. I took it to be a spoof on those old 1960’s teen trauma songs, like “Teen Angel” etc. Totally unexpected and refreshing from a band like The Smiths, and just one more reason to love them.
I understand this comment is three years old, but thank you for posting your interpretation. While I LOVE the Smiths, I have never understood what this song is about. But your take on it makes sense to me and I will be adopting it now :)
It’s unexpected on the surface but Marr and morrissey were both super inspired by 60s girl groups like that. You can hear it in a lot of their songs if you’re familiar w the genre
Greatest alternative rock band of the 1980s decade
Gorgeously happy and traitorously resolute. How anyone can think The Smiths are about something as simple as sadness is beyond me.
Rob Bird amen. It's always refreshing to encounter someone who gets it.
The dichotomy of this song is brilliant. The 2 minutes of this song engages Morrisey's full spectrum of love vs. hate, but many times love and hate are close.
The darkest lyrics mixed with such Beautiful music
They Might Be Giants have this equilibrium too
morrissey's face is a work of art man.
+Peitzsucks 30 years ago.
+grimilde112 He still is. But yes, 30 years ago...
he really was a beautiful man. still is.
Michelle Torres Yeah, he looks like Daniel Warren from Art Attack
Um.. have you seen him lately? He has not aged well at all. I will give you the fact that in this video he is definitely a pretty boy..
happiest song by the smiths
hahaha :D
FacultyBob Actually its a serious song you know
Not really
FacultyBob 😭😭😭
It's up there with Ask, for sure...
Anybody wanna walk with me on a rainy day in a small European town, with this softly playing in the background? Such an amazing song!!
우리나라 에선 검열로 수입 금지되서 90년대 초반에 해적판테잎으로 들어봣는데 듣자마자 반함..테잎이 닳도록 들었는데...

90년대에 스미스 팬이 존재하셨군요 ㅋㅋ
The smiths are so underrated,what an amazing band.
Underrated ??? Lol
@@eduardomota2429 They’re also so underground, no one’s even really heard of them. Not even you.
yeah "underground" in other words the most influential indie pop band of all time. yes they're amazing but they are NOT underacted in the slightest. some of their songs are though
His face,his voice.Love him.
Love playing this one on Valentine's Day! 😂
Unique sound , voice , lyrics! Love the Smiths!
One of the Best Smiths song for arrangement
I had this on vinyl 😊
This Man's Voice is still Heaven in 2020...
2023 until this world dies
And Dec 23
Why is it some of the best songs are also the shortest? BRILLIANT band, Morrissey's voice and Johnny's guitar........!!!!!!!!!!!
Giuseppe Ferrazza this a short version. Go and find the extended version it will give you three extra minutes
I was in 8th grade when I first heard this song. I was over at my new friends house, Allison Barrow, she had just moved into a house down the street from mine, and her older sister,Rachel, put this on and that was it. I was instantly hooked. It was true love. I fell for Morrissey HARD. Never stopped listening. I thought Rachel was the coolest. She introduced me to so much music. GOOD music. At that point I completely stopped listening to the radio (pop) and from there on out it was "alternative" (that's what they called it back then) music and punk.
The cheeriest, upbeat, tragedy of a song you will ever hear! And yes! she dies in the end! Oxymoron of a song! True Smiths masterpiece!
his honesty is refreshing.
This song is one of the reasons why the 80's was the best decade for the coolest songs.
The best decade is whatever one you're living in because you get all the music. I feel bad for the poor fucks who died in the 50s. They never knew how great music could be.
@@edwardclark7705 thats stupid. Plenty of good music in the 40s actually. I was nowhere close to born yet but to say that right now is the best decade is ludacris. If existence ended on 01/01/1990 id be ok with it. 90s music was good but id be willing to sacrifice it to never have to hear the garbage that began in 2000 and on...thats for damn sure....& why are ppl "fucks" for passing away in the 50s? Your comment is just braindead from start to finish. I guess i should expect nothing less from a millennial lost cause though
@@edwardclark7705 they had big band music, jazz, swing,, not to mention romantic, classical, baroque. Check out Louis Prima’s Sing, sing, sing. What about blues and rock and roll? You should expose yourself to other genres. The dancing looked phenomenal too.
What a tender treasure from my adolescence. I could never get tired of this masterpiece.
I'm very glad that i start to listen to The Smiths at a very young age
It's always the last notes that get me, after the last words. Marr's guitar speaks a thousand words to me in just that few seconds.
The Smiths are incredible. I’ve listened to them for years, but for some reason always skipped this one. After actually listening to it, I can’t stop repeating it.
The smiths are addictive
they really are
The Smiths have to be the most underated group in the world. I love his singing voice.
the voice of Morrissey is amazing!
This song is such a trip. The narrator is either a genuinely concerned loving boyfriend or an abusive one who put her in the coma and is getting arrested.
another smiths song that you wish was longer, but it will never be...
...just another testament to their genius
Dark sarcasm in this song: I do love it.
From a time when pop videos were bad but the songs were instant classics.
His voice is amazing
One of my all time favs. Brings to mind those songs from the old 'torch' singers, like "is that all there is..." While this is satirical those were just depressing.
The bouncy intro (presumably Johnnie Marr?), is one of the most recognisable tracks ever then it is followed by almost sickly guitar playing afterwards... incredible talent the two had together.
It's very clearly a bass riff. Try Andy Rourke instead. Brilliant player and criminally underrated.
Take this song with a pinch of salt i love this song johnny marr is genius on guitar and morrisey is funny yet spot on with lyrics. Love it x
Guitar melodies on this are beautiful
exactly!!
thats johnny marr for ya
The greatest love song ever written xx
Mi entrada a una de mis bandas favoritas de todos los tiempos. Pasó en 2012 a la edad de 12 años, cuando yo escuchaba la buena música por RUclips o una lista en MP3 en la tablet con mi familia. Mi vieja es fana de los Smiths. Saludos desde Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The immortal Ms. Tushington. RIP Andy . ❤️
the smiths still sound amazing,brings back so many memory's.
Only Morrissey could make the lyric “There were times when I could have murdered her...” sound so pretty. 😂
#Facts❤
...and that's the humor.
Death is pretty
Don't forget about the strangling part!! 🤣
@Hunter Vonnegut Obvious spammer is obvious.
I just can't stop listening The Smiths. My mom used to love it and I did give anything for them but NOW... They're genuine and I can't stop to listen them, it's annoying sometimes the way I can't get rid of it lol.

Most beautiful song ever man I challenge you to find a song as beautiful and cohesive

my gf was 6 months pregnant and had major organ failure, she was put in an induced coma, I was 18. if you lived it you would truly know what he's singing about.
una canción muy corta y redonda. por dios qué bien lo hacían mozzer y johnny juntos. el núcleo perfecto del jangle pop. ♥♥♥
Mick Joyce y Andy Rourke tambien eran grandes músicos que aceptaron su rol secundario en la banda.
What a sad beautiful song. Bravo Smiths.
For me, the real star of this is Marr's simple little recurring guitar figure (0:25, 1:07, etc.) So pretty.
Loves me my mozz.Its just so special.a million memories
Guys the song is all about a relationship in the rocks.. Mos is a Genius lyrist. He wants to tell he still loves her girlfriend.. Eventhough the girl is a pain in the a**s. That it😁. Just enjoy song.. Good day😁🇵🇭
Hello future person, yes we are still listening to this song in *[insert date here]* . You have great taste in music too. Have a lovely day!
I was a huge fan of the Smiths before I watched black mirror, heard it in San Junipero, decided to come look for the music video
Morisey is a fantastic Singer in the world
yes, he is definitely in the world.
The key to this song is that the Girlfriend in question is The Smiths. The whole lyric is about the break up of the band.
"Do you really think she'll (we''ll?) pull through?"
"Let me whisper my last goodbyes...."
This one started the whole ride for me.
So short , yet lots to unpack...
1:09 "My, my, bye, bye, bah, ba baby, goodbye..." or something like that ;)
Serenely sung Morrissey
My my my my my my baby goodbye
I think the meaning behind this song was that she’s in a coma because of him and he wants her dead. Let me pitch it to you.
He says “I know, I know, it’s serious” as if somebody is telling him to take it more seriously and he’s downplaying it (his smug face in the clip doesn’t show concern either). He then admits he wanted to murder her in the past, even strangle her, but he now wishes her well. However, as we established, he’s not acting concerned at the moment and he declines the offer to see her.
He then dreamily sings “bye bye baby goodbye”, completely at ease with her not making it. Then he hears from someone she can pull through, he asks them multiple times if they were sure, and then suddenly decides to go see her (“to whisper his last goodbyes” despite the fact he was just told she’d pull through). I think he’s going in to finish her off. His narcissistic facial expressions in the video only confirm that he has no care or love for her.
Nice :D
Love how up-beat the music is- in stark contrast to the lyrics.
Fran M. K. Agreed, and when people call The Smiths miserable they mustn't listen to a lot of the lyrics, Like The Queen is Dead- "Charles don't you ever pray to appear on the front of the Daily Mail dressed in your mother's bridal veil" And, Vicar in a Tutu. Irony's just lost on some people. ;)
One of the finest Bands of all times...really!
My wife Judith Krantz argued to this song. She didn't realize that we each care about a very special young man named Mr. Daniel C. Scott very deeply and in doing so cared about he and our future - - it's also very disturbing to find out that he killed a Retired San Fernando off-duty detective named Dave . . .
Possibly the best song of all time. It's serious...
I don't know why this song always makes me smile.
