@@simonfolgar4208 When somebody says 'don't let them have a say in it' it means you shouldn't let them have any control over it. So it basically just means that you shouldn't let Morrissey have control over your life. I know this is a bit late but I hope I helped 👍🏽
I think he's sad like that because last night he dreamt that somebody loved him, and he believes he's a charming man, but he wonders how soon is now. He is feeling like half a person and heaven knows he's miserable now. But he can't forget that there is a light that never goes out.
The cure can die in a dumpster fire, but I feel personally called out by my love for the smiths and joy division. Am I That Dude™?? Did i just never see it??

Started for me in 1984. Hatful of Hollow. I thought the Smiths were the third band Robert Smith of the Cure and Siouxsie and the Banshees was in. I can laugh about it now, but at the time it was terrible. The third band he was in was the Glove. Side project with Steve Severin of the Banshees whilst Siouxise and Budgie were off being the Creatures.
Honestly it’s joy division that does this to me, like everytime I listen to them i have a breakdown and need a few months to recuperate but the smiths make me so happy
Same thing happened to me in the late 80s. Grew a quiff , wore a hearing aid and stole all my grandad’s cardigans. My parents constantly nagged me for an explanation 🙄 On the one night a year that I left the house, my friend at the vegetarian anti-vivisection society gala dinner encouraged me to tell them the truth. He was right. I hastily made my way back entered the living room and through blinding tears looked them straight in the feet and blubbered, “I am human and I need to be loved…just like everybody else does” “How soon is now?”, asked Mummy.
i wanted to not relate but then i looked at the multiple oscar wilde books ive bought since i started listening to them and i just had to shut my damn mouth
Same for me, but it wasn’t just the copy of the complete works of Oscar Wilde that jolted me into reality, it was that, the Keats and Yeats anthologies, and the four books about the smiths I have We really all do need help
i’m sort of the opposite; i’m REALLY into 19th century poetry and when i heard cemetry gates for the first time like a month ago i freaked out at the mention of some of my favourite poets and fell down a bit of a smiths rabbit hole. i doubt i’ll escape said rabbit hole
"Oh, you've been in the house too long" she says.. If you ask me(ask me(ask me)), I think this charming man just want to go out tonight, where there's music and there's people and they're young and alive. But mainstream music, that they constantly play, It says nothing to him about his life. Don't spit in his eyes, see, the life he had can make a good man bad. Well, if I were you I wouldn't bother.
thank you for raising awareness about this important issue. i feel much more confident in this generation now. the smiths has been rotting teenage minds for years now, and it’s about time it comes to an end. i will be sure to share this with my quilting group that meets every friday. they too will appreciate this montage.
On the contrary, I’m alive when I listen to the Smiths. It makes me feel and that’s when I know I’m alive. It might hurt but, I know I’m not the only one.
My mother bought Meat is Murder for me as my 18th birthday present in 1985, admittedly at my request . She did her research first though. "Did you know Morrisey was vegetarian?" Yes. "Did you know Morrisey calls himself a feminist?" Yes. "So are you going to be a vegetarian and a feminist?" No. Today I am proud to say I am both.
😂🤣😅😃😄😆 I hear you, Momma. Discovering The Smiths (apart from 2 well-known hits in the 80s) in my 50s. Thankfully (hopefully) wise enough to scoff at 'downer' lyrics while 💃🏾 buttocks right off. 7:32 a.m.; impatiently waiting for neighbours to rise that I may begin blasting it loud. All over again. Your video rocks with hilarity! Awesome job 👍🏿
Very funny, and kind of true. That exact thing happened to me and a lot of other people I know. But then again, when you have the Smiths you really don't need anything or anyone else. Except a bedroom. P.S. Louder than bombs, greatest album ever.
I introduced both my kids to The Smiths when they were teens and now they are awesome well-rounded adults. The Smiths are my favorite band of all time! I saw them in Houston in the 80s at the Cullen Auditorium on the UofH campus and I will never forget it.
I saw The Smiths in 1986 and, I swear, it was every bit as violent as the Slayer show I saw the next year. It was General Admission and you had all these crazy, obsessive Smiths fanatics ready to kill each other for spots closer to the stage. One girl got cut so badly you could see the tendons in her arm. I remember this sad, sexually ambiguous guy in a priest's get up with a collar. And a whole row of crying girls during That Joke isn't Funny Anymore. It was one of my favorite nights of the whole 80s; Morrissey said to the crowd, "I hope you know you're missing Benson for this", and I'm so glad I did!
I must admit-my outlook on life has changed since The Smiths. I don't leave the house as often as I used to. I dress cooler. I smoke a few cigs here and there yet am in a more mindful place now...but hey, that music sounds pretty Good!
Judging by the way he was playing soccer, this wasn't the friend's fault. He was always a Smiths fan waiting to happen.
Ilznidiotic b a n t e r
Morrissey was a great athlete.
Think marr was really good at football
Ilznidiotic ...my thoughts exactly...
That could also have given us a gay Justin Bieber fan or an emo kid. Smith´s fans are more intelectual although also depressed
"don't let morrissey have a morrisSAY in your life" is just beautiful poetry
yeah yeah, whatever nerd, you obviously haven’t had any morussy
Someone can explain me that joke, please? English is not my first language, that's why I don't get it. Thank you.

You're brilliant!!!
Damn
Could his life ever be sane again?
I hear he’s got everything now after the Queen is dead.
Did the night open his eyes too?
Maybe he wants to leave his room and go out, but he hasn't got a stitch to wear!
that was clever
Love this lmao

Ingenious! Loved it!
I love this comment so much lol
At least be careful about the cure and joy division

Because your child is human and need to be loved just like everybody else does
clever
you know, it's so easy to laugh- it's so easy to hate. It takes strength to be gentle and kind.
Guts. It takes guts to be gentle and kind. Guts.

Not in this video.
Okay, so, I thought the kid in the beginning with the yellow shirt was the result of listening to The Smiths.
oStillAliveo hajajajajaj
Thought he’d be gay after listening to the smiths
Not necessarily gay, but then I remembered how depressing all of their music is.
Lol me too ! 😅
I started listening to the smiths because I'm depressed.
Now he's spending warm summer days indoor.

his friend is kool he gave him the best album of the smiths
Green Alien Girl there is no best they are all equally equivalent you fucking bandwagon hipster
Green Alien Girl I was scrolling down to find this exact comment!
The best Smiths album is The Queen is Dead. Compilations like Louder Than Bombs and The World Won't Listen don't count.
louder than bombs is not even an album!! it's a compilation! stop bullshitting
Meat Is Murder. Nothing else will do.
"I can laugh about it now but at the time it was terrible" 😩

I know a good counselor he could talk to. He knows so much about these things.
that's me.
Hei S.T.E.V.E.N...push off
His friends don't wanna go out with him cause he says "if a double decker bus hits the both of us" while driving
Jesus, if that's how he reacts to louder than bombs... don't let him get his hands on the queen is dead

I've seen this happen in other people's lives, and now it's happening in his.
"If Morrissey says not to eat meat, then I'll eat meat. That's how much I hate Morrissey."
-Robert Smith of The Cure
It's so easy to laugh it's so easy to hate; it takes guts and strength to be gentle and kind. Only the gentle are ever really strong
This is a example of a charming man
How can moms be against Morrissey. That's dreadfully absurd.

The Smiths were awesome. The lyrics are hilarious. The music sublime. Andy Rourke on bass is totally under-rated.
Totally agree!!! Bass is always underrated
You realize this video is meant as humour.
I love The Smith's!
*takes headphones off* Sorry?
The Smiths music is a life story of many off us...think about it...happiness, sadness, regrets, inspiriation, doubts, certains...etc...etc...
Lol it's the other way around for me. I actually used to be more depressed before stumbling upon the band. Their music is like therapy to me.
He would go out tonight, but he hasn't got a stitch to wear.
how is this video not more popular??? this is only the most accurate video that represents me on youtube
I love the smiths, I love Morrissey, but This is funny
The Smiths are as humorous as they are depressing.
I feel like it’s 2009 and I just stumbled on this video. Its the era of RUclips I miss😭😭♥️
The smiths changed me
Yea its wierd I've seen this happen in other people's lives and now its happening in mine..
Thank god he’s playing the records on a Crosley Cruiser where they’ll be destroyed and rendered unplayable
Judging by his yellow shirt and his love of animals he had it coming
