#thesmiths #FullAlbum
Great track. Morrissey is hilarious. You’d enjoy his lyrics. Marr is fantastic. All time great band.
The Smiths geniously mixed melancholy with euphoria.
Morrissey and Marr
Johnny Marr justifiably gets plenty of praise but this track (and the entire TQID album) really showcases all four band members at the very top of their game.
imo, their best track but they do have so many more that are close. This band was huge during my time in college - along with REM.
In the US, the term alternative started to come to prominence towards the end of the 80s, though it was used as early as '85 (so, before this Smiths album). Before then it was called New Music & Postmodern. HOWEVER, in the UK we just used the term Indie Rock, as in those produced by small independent labels. Indie Charts started to be published around 1980 here. So, the Smiths was classed as an Indie band over here.
same in NZ… “indie” rather than “alternative”
Morrissey forever!
The Smiths are their own genre.
No.
Johnny Marr!!
Bigmouth strikes again
Yes, no one out there like Morrissey. His phrasing and sentiment are one of a kind. Great stuff from the master of sulk.
Try re-phrasing that, my friend.
Those of us who were in college in the 80s and were sick of mainstream pop and hair metal and all that… We listened to a lot of The Smiths, REM, The Cure, The Fall, Cocteau Twins, The Jesus and Mary Chain, etc. We called it alternative back then. College radio was a big part of our lives, not corporate radio and not MTV.
'Some girls are bigger than others'
The common term used back in the 80's was "indie" as in independent, referring to the record label.
This is my favourite song by "The Smiths" - and the first 45 I bought of them.
I don't recall the term "alternative" being used colloquially back then. I kinda recall in Rolling Stone there were "college radio" charts, where you find bands like the Smiths. But if you ever asked someone back in the mid 80s what they listened to, I don't think ANYONE would say "I listen to alternative." Instead, you might list bands which communicated the idea: "The Smiths, Echo & the Bunnymen, The Cure..." etc.
they were still considered new wave. i'm 70, things were pretty simple back then.
@@deborahpaley21 I don’t recall them being described as New Wave. Here’s one description I found. The Smiths' "non-rhythm-and-blues, whiter-than-white fusion of 1960s rock and post-punk was a repudiation of contemporary dance pop.”
We used to say "college radio", because that was the only place you were going to hear any of this in almost the entire US outside of 120 Minutes on MTV. Sometimes referred to as 2nd Brit invasion. I don't remember 'alternative' being a term getting thrown around back then. "New Wave" didn't really apply to the Smiths because they were actually a throwback to a pure guitar band without all the synths and electronic drums that were prevalent in New Wave. Bands like the Thompson Twins, Heaven 17, too many to list. People forget that most of what's now considered "80's" music was never played on mainstream radio. It was all Madonna and lots of other garbage on the pop stations and 60's and 70's dinosaur rock on the AOR stations… Led Zepplin 24/7. If not for MTV bands like U2, REM, INXS, etc. never would have broken through.
It was always Indie. It served as a catch all for anything that didn’t fit other categories (Rock, Pop, Metal, Dance, Reggae etc).
@@edwardlosty549 Where were you located in 86? You recall using the term "indie" back then?
I like this song. Nice Guitar playing.
Great tune. One of their best imo.
Bigmouth Strikes Again is classic Smiths.
Unless I’m very much mistaken, Johnny Marr would write and record the music then give it to Morrissey, who would then write lyrics and come up with the vocals on his own. I don’t think He knows much of anything about the theory. He just has this unique way of phrasing. To me this explains perfectly his style of singing, it’s like he discovered his own style.
I really like the B52's but none of their songs were about love: requited, unrequited, or never even expressed. The Smiths were a beam of sunshine .
Hero Worship from their first album is a bit about that subject, as a bonus it's a banger.
@@jameshannagan4256 good point. Although Krakatoa East of Java is a tongue in cheek reference to a movie with that title, Krakatoa is actually slightly west of Java. Why circle the world? I am referring to the B-52s song Lava, of course.
@@colinwilson4609 I know the song well I still love their first album. If you're having a get together and want to get people off their asses all you have to do is put that record on and it's like magic, Dance This Mess Around is such a great rock song you can dance to.
@@jameshannagan4256 Do the Shy Tuna. Do the Aqua Velva.
@@colinwilson4609 Some of them are real dances (I think) and some of them are just silly ones (I think).
Marr is the absolute best. If you want to hear he most amazing guitar please listen to “Girl afraid”!!!
Girl Afraid was the song that made me delve into the Smiths. I had bought the 12" single of How Soon Is Now, and at first I didn't pay attention to Girl Afraid on the B-side. Such a different sound if your intro to the Smiths is How Soon Is Now. But I guess I gave it another listen without prejudice one time, and thought wow, this is a cool tune. If their B-side is this good, I should start buying their albums.
Listen to the live version of Bigmouth Strikes Again on the album Rank. Listen to it at ear-bleeding volume--it's fantastic!
The word "alternative" rock started to be used around 1991. I was there. I was lucid. Hey Lucid, I'm hhoooome! 😏😏😏
finally react to the best
I'm from the Southeastern US and from the mid-eighties.We always refered to this type of music as alternative. Depeche Mode, the cure. New order, etc.
Hi guys, loving you're reaction to the smiths. You should watch the the video of Johnny Marr doing this track on jools Holland show. It's a great version. You'll like it !😀.
It's been a long time since you listened to YES. Check out "In the Presence of". Good live version here: ruclips.net/video/0h6aJMsE32Y/видео.html
" by rights you should be bludgeoned in your bed "
Taken out of context outside of the realms of a Smiths song this sounds so so wrong... but it makes me laugh so much every time I hear this and so many other Morrissey lyrics. The album is incredible , and The Smiths are incredible both musically and most crucially lyrically. Just Genius. 😍🎵🎵🤘
Martha and The Muffins, The Motels...... alternative.
Thanks for the morning tune.
Now listen to Suede 'Coming up.'
btavissimi gli smiths , sono contento che ne siate entusiasti
suggerisco una canzone dei the the dall'album, soul mining
siete bellissimi
Phenomenal ❤
Try solo Morrissey - “Suedehead” is a good start
We did! Amazing stuff! We will upload that one tomorrow
@@NicknLex Wow - the universe is unusually agreeable today! Thanks guys 👍🏻
Aguante The Smiths aguante Morrisey
Most underrated rhythm section ever.
Great chemistry
loved the patreon reaction!
Johnny Marr wow!
Not my favorite Smiths track by a mile. I can't get past those chipmunk backing vocals. A terrible aesthetic choice. And the lyrics a little bit of Morissey doing a parody of himself. Almost cartoonishly clever with the walkman bit. So many better Smiths singles and songs. Take any track off of Hatful of Hollow. What Difference Does It Make. Or for a deep track, This Night Has Opened My Eyes.
The headmaster ritual, barbarism begins at home.
@@BR81-iv6lt Right on. Or Rusholme Ruffians. Every track on Meat Is Murder is a great. If I had to rank them, it'd be Hatful of Hollow (I prefer that as a sub for their debut), a tie between Meat Is Murder and Strangeways, the two 'greatest hits + new singles' albums Louder than Bombs and World Won't Listen, and Queen Is Dead dead last. Queen Is Dead is a very uneven album IMO. Frankly Mr. Shankly and Vicar in a Tutu exhibit Morissey's 'too cute by half' tendencies even more than Bigmouth.
