[@Thesmithsfan82]

There is something so specifically lovely about this version... probably my favorite live version I've heard

[@catlvr_sk]

So real everything about it is perfect the way it sounds and everything is perfection

In a river the color of lead
Immerse the baby's head
Wrap her up in the news of the world
Dump her on a doorstep, girl
This night has opened my eyes
And I will never sleep again
You kicked and cried like a bullied child
A grown man of twenty five
Oh, he said he'd cure your ills
But he didn't and he never will
Oh, save your life
Because you've only got one
The dream has gone but the baby is real
Oh, you did a good thing
She could have been a poet or she could have been a fool
Oh, you did a bad thing
And I'm not happy and I'm not sad
A shoeless child on a swing
Reminds you of your own again
She took away your troubles
Oh, but then again
She left pain
Oh, please save your life
Because you've only got one
The dream has gone but the baby is real
Oh, you did a good thing
She could have been a poet or she could have been a fool
Oh, you did a bad thing
And I'm not happy and I'm not sad
Oh la la la, ooh la la
And I'm not happy and I'm not sad
Oh la la la, ooh la la
And I'm not happy and I'm not sad

[@mildredratched1122]

Я русская. Наверно я родилась не в том месте, не в то время. Люблю the Smithc, Talk Talk, Wolfgahg Press, Pink Floyd.

[@LDW68]

Nick Cave and the bad seeds made their live debut on this night supporting The Smiths. Fancy that.

[@HLTulner]

Unbelievable isn’t it… what a double gig, so stupid the network didn’t record Cave. Just so happy they recorded this bootleg though. Probably the best ever.

[@jeroengeronimo]

​@@HLTulnertriple gig to be specific. First playing was Peter Blegvad.

[@Itblover]

Anyone know if this is on spotify

[@Blackrockjazzclub]

I love the smiths but sometimes think they would have been a much cooler band without Morrissey, like a kind of mega-post-punk dream outfit with a singer like Gang of Four’s Jon King or even Lydon, cos the instrumental on this track is absolutely beautiful and Morrissey just kind of drifts through it.

[@sjp9ewid]

why do people not like morrissey?

[@Blackrockjazzclub]

@@sjp9ewid Is that a rhetorical question?

[@sjp9ewid]

@@Blackrockjazzclub No it's not, he's one of the main singers of the band.. without him the band wouldn't really be much. besides, he has an amazing voice and i have no idea why people hate him

[@nelsongandelini7966]

Cadê o vídeo?

[@tenti3266]

[@roselawg]
