      @Melkor This remind me the first time I say their videos, bought a DVD in late 90's, and I was indeed laughing while seeing Morrissey singing "The boy with a thorn on his side" with some tree branch plugged in his pants...
      I admit, I didn't knew he was gay, and discovered it at that moment, I was a bit "shocked" (young from a fundamentalist christian family) but hey hahaha that was funny and I loved it anyway.
      The smiths was one of the best band of the 80's, totally underrated, I discovered them by myself digging in the Virgin Megastore CD "bank", it was the time when we went to shop to buy music, and could come out with something you didn't know before, but had a crush with, listening to the "preview" in the shop.
      Now, there's less serendipity when you watch YT and all "online" offers, surprises are very rare.
      BTW, this song is one of my favorite from them.

I grew up in the same area at the same time. How about ' Why do I smile, at people who I'd much rather kick in the eye'. Or 'you're the one for me, fatty'. Morrissey was a cynic and an intellectual.

    Morrissey delivers gay teen angst in much of his work. He is riding around with his crush, and is on cloud nine, but when they are alone under the bridge his fear of rejection stops him from making a move. He's alone even when with his family. A teenager who's lost and unsure of himself. The Smiths are dark and brooding, but the music is brilliant.

    I think people (RUclips reactors anyway) usually get hung up on the hypothetical death in the chorus and interpret the song as suicidal or depressed -- I always thought this song was a relatively hopeful. Yeah Morrissey's character feels ostracized and unwanted even at home, but at least he has someone in his life who is his lifeline: a person he feels so close to that he would have no regrets spending his last moments with (likely another man, which would explain why he feels like he can't go home -- lots of The Smiths songs are full of allusions to homosexual experiences, some more overt than this song). It's a song about closeness to someone. It's as close as Moz gets to sweetness.
    Btw. Moz has a tendency to bring up death haphazardly (in part b/c a lot of The Smiths songs seem to be from a youthful/immature perspective, also he just seems to be a morbid, dramatic person IRL). I sometimes think people interpret their songs as being sadder than what was probably intended.

    It is such an uplifting song. No matter how dark, how awful your life may become, there is hope, there is light, there is a light always shining for you. There is always a better day, a better time ahead. Never give up. I am certain it came from Dylan Thomas's poem "Do not go gentle into that good night" where he talks about death and not to lie down and succumb to it but to "rage, rage against the dying of the light". It is an incredibly uplifting song, if you have the open mind to listen and the intelligence to understand.

    I think the character in the song is alienated from the world, and only feels connected to the one he's driving with. (And perhaps he's obsessed.). It's kind of an adolescent way to look at things; remember how significant every little thing was when we were teenagers? It's sort of like "life sucks, but hanging out with you is the best thing ever."

      @@gonzalogomez5677 Oh, yeah. The Smiths are gay. Well, technically. Morrissey's lyrics have a gay point-of-view, though he tends to avoid being specific about gender in songs about any romantic inclinations. But, duh. We all know he was singing about guys. (Except in the best case of him being gender-specific, "Girlfriend in a Coma."). "There is a Light that Never Goes Out" evokes a common theme, one familiar to any of us who has been a closeted gay boy--while you lust after your best friend, you're hoping that fate will please please please let you get what you want, and, failing that, maybe crashing a 10-ton truck into the two of you, allowing you to spend all of your final moments together and eternity intertwined in peoples' memories. Morrissey doesn't get gender-specific in this song, which leaves it open to be embraced by people beyond angst-filled gay teenagers. Do you know who this song was written about? Do you know how they ended up in that car? Do you know whether or not they found their double-decker bus? Does it matter?

      @@gonzalogomez5677 Sure enough, it's good to go for the concrete case. Having an understanding of where the song came from helps. But, with all great songs, the meaning reaches out beyond the concrete. In the last few days, I've asked many friends about this song, and my straight friends tend to find it as meaningful as my gay friends. And, by the way, your English is very good!

    The commentary about not being loved by your family on top of being lonely and depressed had me start crying, I’m not gonna unload my story here but the reason I started liking reaction channels is cause I don’t feel lonely watching them. Like when an author writes something incredibly relatable, it’s like someone heard you and understands you and is holding your hand. That’s what your commentary for this video felt like.

    My favorite song by the Smiths. I think we can all relate to being in love like that as a teenager. The lyrics are dark and depressing but the music is so lively and cheerful that it always puts me in a good mood whenever I listen to it. I listen to it at least 2-3 times a week. Great reaction India!

    your reaction to that song is beautiful and reflects how i feel when listening to a number of The Smiths tracks. on the verge of tears but with all this longing that the "main character" of the song is going to get through it and find love, and the light that never goes out...which i can only guess is "hope". Its a kind of joyful melancholia, wallowing just a bit (?!), but with that added serenity. "To die by your side-" seems as much about, "let all the pain be over cos i'm with you now in this perfect moment and if it all ended now, we at least have this". thank you for playing it and showing us your response.

    Your face reactions during the song are the best ! I listened to this song as soon as it was released back in 1986 and you did understand the feelings in this song very wisely. I strongly believe that when he mentions the darkened underpass is exactly the place where he would have had the chance to kiss the person he's with, in that car, but then again the fear always stops him from doing anything.

      Think Cemetary Gates perfectly highlights the juxtaposition of Marr’s joyous jingly jangly guitar alongside the dark lyrics Morrissey sings. The song has one of the most sad lyrics ever...
      “So we go inside and we gravely read the stones
      All those people, all those lives
      Where are they now?
      With loves, and hates
      And passions just like mine
      They were born
      And then they lived
      And then they died
      It seems so unfair
      I want to cry”
      Yet as sad as the lyrics are they are lifted up and carried along by the genius of Marr. 👍

    I always take this song as a young man trying to express himself to someone he loves or has a crush on. He's trying to connect to them, but maybe the awkwardness of youth makes it difficult. So he says "if a double-decker bus crashes into us, to die by your side is a heavenly way to die." In other words, even if he were killed, if she were with him it would the best moment for him because she was with him!
