Okay I lied, ‘Girlfriend in a Coma’ is definitely The Smiths’ best track. Sublime.

TQiD > This > Hatful > Smiths > MiM

But you’re right, they are all quality.

I'd also add Rank to the list, Queen's t/t rocks so hard in there

‘Love, peace and harmony?

Oh, very nice, very nice, very nice, very nice

But maybe in the next world’



One of the high-points in a discog that is right up there with the best in recorded history.

Exactly! These lines were stuck in my head for hours yesterday. Such a beautiful & subtle way to say that everything sucks.

Band has been with me since I was 15.



No other band came close to expressing how I felt during those years.



Nearly 30yrs have passed and while the emotions have changed the lyrics are still yet to be bettered.



The fact remains that the band have never shifted from me top 5 of all time.

‘Recorded Sounds of the Miners Strike



Piano



Crash



Last Night I dreamt that somebody loved me

No hope, no harm just another false alarm’





Best band of all time for stroppy sods

Girlfriend in a Coma is legit among the greatest pop (?) songs ever written
