Favourite Smiths Album.

[Wat_Tyler]

Just been listening to 'Strangeways...', so I thought I'd set up a poll.

[flamingyouth]

1. Obligatory kick for Neil.

:D

[CalebHayes]

2. Which one has Girl friend in a coma?

[Wat_Tyler]

4. That would be 'Strangeways....'

[4_Legs_Good]

3. I can't stands Morrissey

but I guess I gotta admit I like "Meat is Murder" okay. And that one "I'm the son and heir" song.

[Wat_Tyler]

5. I don't much like him either, but the band were extraordinary musicians.

[flamingyouth]

6. No one ever mentions Andy Rourke and Mike Joyce

A great rhythm section.

[Wat_Tyler]

8. Rourke is a wonderful bass player.

One of the very best of his generation.

[HeyManThatsCool]

7. We can go for a walk where it's quiet & dry

& talk about prescious things
like love & law and poverty
ohhh
these are the things that kill me

[redqueen]

9. I'll go with The Queen is Dead

I really liked Frankly Mr. Shankly. (sp?)

My favorite song by them I think was a b-side though... November Spawned a Monster.

[Wat_Tyler]

11. That was a solo Morrissey single, wasn't it?

[redqueen]

12. Not a clue.

:shrug:

[meganmonkey]

13. LOL - My best friend in HS said that song was about me

She used sing "November spawned a monster in the shape of a Megan"
(My b-day is in November)

Funny memory :D

on edit: pretty sure that was a Morrisey solo song

[sundog]

10. Strangeways

The bass line in Paint a Vulgar Picture intro gets me all happy & whatnot... just my fave all around

[bloodyjack]

14. I'll say my favorite is the unreleased "The hand that rocks the cradle"

(which is technically their first album) just so you know I'm with it

[Wat_Tyler]

15. Is that the Troy Tate sessions bootleg?

[bloodyjack]

16. Hellz yeah

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

17. Hmmmmmm

dork!

[Fenris]

18. The Original LP

I think. Okay, that's my opinion this week.

'Strangeways' holds a special place in my heart though. I think it is unfairly criticised.

[tigereye]

19. one good song per album

well, just about. Sorry.

[Magrittes Pipe]

20. "Death at One's Elbow" would make any album bad.

Sorry, buddy. ;)

[bloodyjack]

24. Hey! I happen to like that song!

[NashVegas]

21. I'm the Only "Hatful" Fan. Sad

*sigh*

"Under the Iron Bridge
we kissed
and though I ended up with
sore lips ..."

[CanuckAmok]

22. The one they were writing as their private plane crashed in a cornfield.

Oh, no, wait.... that's my fantasy.

I guess I'd have to say "Hatful".

[Joe Power]

23. Which one didn't feature Morrisey?

:P~
