Hey, you! Have a good day. I mean it.
Ditto. 😎
You too! Happy New Year!
You too Lauren!
"Last night I dreamt somebody loved me" is one of the best introductions to any song. The longer version is needed for it.
The notion of breaking into the palace with a sponge and a rusty spanner is a reference to the incident in 1982, when a guy called Michael Fagan managed to sneak into the Queen's bedroom in Buckingham Palace, and sat with her for a while before being apprehended by security... by all accounts he didn't mean her any harm, but it was a big story at the time...
I don't really think people watch reaction videos for insight and analysis. I think people who love reaction videos are looking more for the right person with the right vibe. Often it is a song you are already familiar with and you just want to relive that "first-time" experience vicariously though someone you like. That's why I love watching your reactions. I just want to listen to cool music with someone who is cool.
Agree, I think this is a good summary of why most people check out reaction videos.
Hi Lauren, I have been a Smiths fan since '84 or '85- The clip at the beginning of the song is taken from the 1962 film The L-Shaped Room, a “kitchen sink” drama, based on a novel by Lynne Reid Banks about a young French girl (Leslie Caron) who discovers she’s pregnant and moves into the rented accommodation of the title alongside the other residents of the West London house: the landlady, a failed writer, a jazz musician, an actress and others.
Headmasters ritual is an amazing tune, im so glad i got to see The Smiths live over 30 times, my favourite band ever.
Love your Smiths reactions! Pay no mind to the snobby/rude comments .
“It's so easy to laugh
It's so easy to hate
It takes strength to be gentle and kind
Over, over, over, over”
Enough said! lol
Always here for you and the Smiths. Their attitude. Your attitude.
Ignore the idiots. Enjoy your non-loneliness, excellent.
Smithsonian here. Glad you like the song and the band so much! Congrats on the new love interest. 😉
One of my fave Smiths tunes - off the wall, lots of deadpan British humour. Great guitar, lyrics, percussion and bass - what more does one need?
No you are right, Andy was an amazing bass player; he definitely stands out. When I was a young teen and discovered music outside of top 40 radio hits, this was one of the first songs I heard that changed my musical tastes; the structure of this song was nothing like what I was used to with a catchy chords repeated throughout the song. College radio in the 80’s was amazing
My favorite Smiths opening track. Don't understand why this song is so overlooked. IMO, not only one of the Smiths' best songs, but one of the best rock songs of the 80s. So unique sounding for the time as well, especially Marr's flanger sounding guitar lol
5:34 You're just on the other side of the pond, and you can't quite hear what we're saying over here on our little island... A sponge and a spanner is what burglars often use to break into houses. They put the sponge against the glass of the window and then whack it one with the spanner (silently breaking the window). All the best, love William. London.
:0)
True.. a good example being Michael Fagan who hit the news a few years before this song was recorded by breaking into the palace and finding h.r.h (rip) settled down for a natter about love and loss and what have you until her bouncers showed up
I don't differentiate. Every Smiths song is a classic.
Please just keep reacting how you want to react and ignore the naysayers, there are plenty of us watching who really enjoy your reactions and I am sure that outnumbers a vocal minority complaining one way or another. Thanks for the videos!
Nice reaction! As always. My favorite Smiths songs are The Queen Is Dead, I Know It’s Over and the amazing b-side London (highly recommend). Peace out.
Don’t worry about the comments , your reviews are fun. Try Girl Afraid next. You will Love it.
Love The Smiths reactions, my favorite band since the '80s. I listen to their entire catalog but probably play their up-tempo tracks most often; this track, Bigmouth Strikes Again, Headmaster Ritual, Stop Me If You Think You’ve Heard This One Before, etc.
Some Girls are Bigger than Others might be the most beautiful "silly" song of all time.
That bit about being lonely - and the fact you're not anymore : ) Excellent.
In a live version of 'How Soon Is Now' he sang the verse
'There's a club if you'd like to go
You could meet somebody who really loves you
So you go and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own...'
- and as an aside added an update, '...But not anymore'.
A spanner is a particular wrench for plumbing. The Sponge and Rusty Spanner are how he 'broke in' ie, posed as a plumber ;)
All said and done, they only made 4 studio albums, every song a gem, 10 compilation albums, 3 EP's and 24 singles...for a short career they made a huge impact.
All Smiths songs are pretty much great and I've always been drawn to Andy. My personal favourites for his playing that you have not yet reacted to are Girl Afraid, This Night has Opened My Eyes, That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore and Suffer Little Children, the last coming with about the most depressing lyrics you can imagine and about a true story notorious in Britain.
Cemetary Gates is an underrated one in my book of Smithin'
The line with the sponge and the rusty spanner is made even more humorous and absurd by the queen quipping a Groucho Marx-esque line. Appreciate you watching and reviewing the songs. But take a few minutes to watch the "actual" video for the song by Derek Jarman. This extended series was incredibly beautiful, avant-garde, and influential. Still some of the most beautiful music videos every shot.
Epic!
Hi Lauren, I've been a Smiths fan since they began, and I just think it's great that they still get new fans, and also appreciate Andy Rourke's bass (rest in peace Andy). Such a rich variety of music from such a short period they were together. Perhaps you can try Last Night I Dreamt that Somebody Loved Me? Johnny Marr's favourite I think.
Well I wonder , these things take time are both great smiths songs! Would love to see you react
Please listen to Well I Wonder!
Here are few more Smiths suggestions:
Ask
I like both kinds of Smiths songs.
"Watching him play bass on the song The Queen is Dead was so impressive that I said to myself 'I'll never forget this moment." Johnny Marr
This has made me Happy
Smiths fan since 1987 with Louder Than Bombs. You just keep doing your thing. And once you realize you can't please everybody, you've just freed yourself. 🎉
I will most definitely buy your a t-shirt.
What a tuuuune
Next Smith's song , Sweet And Tender Hooligan 👌
Hi Lauren, it is the Queen here, aNd I AM SOOOOOOO NOT DEAD... As a matter of fact, I AM just starting to LIVE!!! Thank you ABSOLUTELY FABULOUSLY for this platform to shout out The Way of THE TRUTH to your fabulous mind aNd to All'ahv the other Who's who want to be I the knowing 🙀😘🤪😁🙏🏻💍☕️🌻😉🫡🤣☺️😀🐲🙈🙊🙉☝️👑😚...
This night has opened my eyes - definitely should be on your list!
More Smiths, please....
Good for you...hugs
So happy you checked out a great one again. Continue doing you
Lovely video :D I'd like to recommend the smiths songs 'Nowhere fast' to you, my personal favourite, and maybe something different like 'Only a fool would say that' from Steely Dan:)
they were so good!
Peppy or long , both are equally good. In the UK , 'spanner' is also an insulting term for an idiot , maybe related to the term 'putting a spanner in the works' meaning : to cause problems and chaos. Anyway .... keep up the Smiths reactions .You have reacted to some of their best for sure , but That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore , Stop Me If You Think , and A Rush and a Push , are three great songs to react to and all offer something a little different.
Actually, putting a wrench in the works is a real saying. No interpreting necessary.
Check out Andy Rourke and Mike Joyce backing Sinead O'Connor live at pinkpop 1988 singing Mandinka. Sinead goes onto sing her song Troy. You should definitely check it out as well as the official video for Troy!👌😭
Hi Lauren - carry on with your own analysis in your own unique way… I for one like it!
Should ‘analyse’ still ill or girl afraid or nowhere fast or this night has opened my eyes or many others.
I think life is very long when you’re lonely is a reflection on how the queen maybe felt…or for any royal to that extent
Morrissey at his most cryptic, I believe.
Well I wonder, please.
No preference to pep! It's all good. I love your reactions to The Smiths. I've been a lifetime fan, I was a teenager when The Smiths were a thing. So many good ones to choose from. Frankly Mr Shankly if you want a laugh. Or Asleep if you want depressing. Or Reel Around The Fountain if you want Classic The Smiths genius! And for an Andy fix try Stretch Out And Wait. It's right up there one of his best!
I do think it is worth noting a new personal record for you though...... over 11 minutes before you mention Andy! 😛😆
Staying with Manchester, try the Stone Roses!
Thanks for a great reaction! I hope you will consider doing a reaction to "what she said" live version. Cheers from Australia!
Great track on a patchy album. There's an artsy video for it.
Patchy album? Its a classic
Love your reactions so pay not attention to the negative comments. I do think that this is on the peppier end of Smiths songs
One of my favorite Smiths songs. I don't think Charles is a big fan...😂 Hurray for not feeling lonely! I'm happy for you.😉👍
Long or peppy songs ? It's great to have the choice depending upon your mood. I remember being surprised when I heard this song for the first time because I'd never heard The Smiths really rocking out before.
You are fabulously smart, Mine Own Celestially Earthern American friend, for releasing your enquiring mind to All'ah aNd the other FABULOUS Americans out there 😊😊😊!!!
I think I prefer songs like heaven knows I'm miserable now and I know it's over from The Smiths those ones just resonate with me more, I'm glad you've been diggin the band! Also I love your cat background haha it's cool! Great video I hope you're havin a good day!
Both
10:37 I will always relate to this because for ever MORR, Yah, until I re~meet up with Him(ashiac) life is life is very long because I All'ahways feel lonely...
Opening mumbles are "I don't bless them" not by land by sea" :)
if you like bass try some joy division /new order
Great choice love that song but problem with smiths is us fans all have different favourites and then type lauren play this, from my view it depends on how you feel to which song is the best at this time I really like strangeways here we come and my favourite track is death of a disco dancer but that's what mood I'm in now, tomorrow it could change 😂😂
Ask me I won't say no. How could i ?
Play that guitar Johnny Marr! Fire!
Oh, the bass player from Supergrass is also an incredible player and has a similar melodic style to Andy. There's no depressing lyrics though i'm afraid!
There's already a band called the Smithereens so Smithonians it is.
Good to know. Thank you! 😊
Next correction "All their lies about make-up and long hair, are still there" as opposed to "All their life..."
To answer your question, I tend to like the Smiths no matter what type of song of theirs is playing. 🙂
TRY THIS ! Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want
Yes, in the UK we call wrenches spanners. We do call some tools wrenches, but those are a bit more specialised than your basic spanner 😃
This song is the opening track of their album of the same name, which was their penultimate album. It was never a favourite of mine, partly because of the lyrics, which are weird even by Morrissey's standards, and also I'm not keen on some of his vocalisations on this one.
There are some differences between early and later Smiths records, although not huge differences. I would class this as a later recording, which has more overdubs than they would have used in early days. They still gave good live performances of the later songs. In fact, I remember hearing a live version of this song that I preferred to the studio version.
Anyway, glad you liked it.
As far as binary classification of Smith's songs is concerned, I would go for up-tempo, more energetic vs slower, languid songs, although I guess there will always be some that fall in the middle. If pushed, I'd say I prefer the slower: Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now, I know it's Over, This Night has Opened My Eyes, Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want, etc
All songs on The Smiths' live album "Rank" recorded in their hey day match or outshine the studio recordings in my opinion. I also think that the radio show versions on "Hatful of Hollow"' of the tracks from the debut album are way better than the originals.
Yes, I really like Hatful of Hollow. I haven't heard Rank. I used to have a cassette tape (remember those!) from a radio broadcast of a concert they did, and that was excellent.
If you get a chance listen to “that joke isn’t funny anymore “
Love the reaction! Don't try to please the masses! Your reactions are honest as genuine reactions should be!
I prefer Smithsonians! It's a bit intellectual and funny like some of Morressey's lyrics and The Smithereens are another band.
Mike Joyce at his best
Try Ask or Is It Really So Strange
Life is very long when you're lonely...
Johnny Marr. Thanks, anyway.
Just the way you talk, you are someone I should have married out of college.
Lauren, I want to take you off the beaten trail of reactors and ask you to look into the Japanese Punk-Pop band Shonen Knife! They started in 1981 and 2 of the 3 original members are still with the band! Shonen Knife leaves me with an indescribable giddiness, and I am a grown man!
Please review Well I Wonder, Half A Person, Rubber Ring, Unhappy Birthday, William It Was Really Nothing, This Night Has Opened My Eyes, Suffer Little Children, Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before, Panic, Sweet And Tender Hooligan, Sheila Take A Bow and... oh just do the whole lot please. 😊
One song at a time. Stop Me....is done. I just need to post it. ☺️
@@MusicCatsandCoffeenice one ❤
I'm from brazil , please reaction the music WELL I WONDER ! Very Good music

Lauren are going to still do maggot Mondays?
This tune is definitely for English people and even English people don’t listen to it.
Nobody likes to hear the truth
I totally have a Crush on you you're cool
