Genesis Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 Yeah, lovely band in all respects really. Queen Is Dead is a flawless album. Best British band of the 80s. Really gave music a good kick up the arse when surrounded by nu-romantics and second rate hair metallers that wished they were on the Strip when they still live in their 3-bed semi with their parents.

motownjunkie Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Possibly the greatest band ever, intelligent lyrics with such creative melodies by marr, check out Meat is Murder and the 1984 BBC live sessions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Niveen Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 (edited) Alright, i've had enough of seeing you guys moaning about this band and me having heard absolutely none of their stuff.Recommend me a song!This Charming ManIt's Genesis' favorite I think, and a good place to start.Yes, this is a very good one. From the same album (the first one), "What Difference Does It Make ?" is good too.But their second album, "Meat Is Murder", sounds better imo, almost like a rockabilly record !

Genesis Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I overdid Meat Is Murder when I got it, so I'm aprehensive to put it on again.I guess This Charming Man is probably my favourite. It's a pefect pop song. ODS now knows me inside out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gash Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Ah but we must remember that "This Charming Man" off the Smiths self titled album is superior to the one of the Hatful of Horrow album. Song I'm really digging at the moment is "Girl Afraid" ooh and check out "Pretty Girls Make Graves." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest katie Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 a song people always look over is a rush and a push off of strangeways here we comeand a tragic some far superior to any other smiths one, morrisseys vocals truly soar in this, last night i dreamt that somebody loved me.

Alan Niveen Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 (edited) French magazine Les Inrockuptibles (which has been supporting The Smiths from day one) has released a special issue and a DVD about the band. You'll find also a clip of a Morrissey's interview.http://www.lesinrocks.com/ListeNews.cfm?iditem=186072You can discuss about GNR (or The Smiths) on the forum. Even in English.
