@@hugomar1997 There are lots of classic albums, but as a delectable taster, I recommend popping on the 2008 compilation album, “The Sound of The Smiths”.
@@bobbysworldofficial It definitely sounds like The Smiths in more than just that part. Johnny Marr has said that he was influenced by Murmur so, and a song can sound like it has more than one influence.

Love that the bass line only has one note for the first minute... and then when it finally drops to a B at the end of the first chorus I'm like oh man here we go
This album is so full of little moments I'm wowed by, in this one it's the syncopated drums on "DIDN'T I" around 0:21, they really punctuate that lyric
Very clever Mr. O'Hanley or Molly? I want the one l can't have, The Smiths at 1:10-1:15...these are the riches of the poor. Not exactly the same, but a very nice rendition. Really shows your range and ability. So awesome. Cheers!

If Molly Rankin was in the Smiths this is how they’d sound! The Smith’s would have been so much better with Rankin and Marr instead of Morrissey - as I’ve got older I’ve realised he gives off strong pretentious, entitled, incel vibes! My point: love Alvvays!
this Smiths cover band is actually pretty good, but sometimes less is more: dear god this album is noisy and crowded jokes aside, I love listening to Alvvays' whole discography, bye!

this song bangs. It sounds custom made for fans of The Smiths. And that voice!
Hi there! I absolutely love this song but I am unfamiliar with The Smith's discography, where should I begin?

@@MahatMagandi93 This or Hatful of Hollow.
omg this is literally what i thought after listening to it.
“I won’t apologise for something I’m not sorry for” - love this bit. The whole Smiths and Morrissey influence perfected
Smiths like perfection! I love Alec’s guitar work - very Johnny Marr. They were holding back all the very best songs until album release clearly.
"Oh well I lost that shine. Didnt i?"
The lyrics for this song is everything!!!
I've had this on repeat for 5 days straight.
The Smiths but with a female vocalist? Yes.
check out the songs the smiths recorded with Sandie Shaw
you should check out The Sundays! you won’t regret it
Yes! The Sundays are awesome. Definitely recommend them to any Smiths fans
Easily my favorite track off the new album. So good.
1:14 is the riff from “this charming man”, they went all in with the smiths influence and it sounds so good
I caught that too on the first listen.
this is the only part of the song that sounds lilke the smiths. otherwise it's REM imo, very southern gothic.
@@bobbysworldofficial It definitely sounds like The Smiths in more than just that part. Johnny Marr has said that he was influenced by Murmur so, and a song can sound like it has more than one influence.
well murmur and the smiths discograohy were both jangle rock masterpieces. So maybe both ? but i def feel more smiths than rem personally
@@bobbysworldofficial idk, i thought the guitars through out the whole song is very Marr-like.
I feel like I’m in “The Dead Poets Society” when I hear this. Perfect autumnal daydreaming.

Benevolent collegiate rolled his eyes and walked away
And if you could believe it
His stride is lengthened by his sense of wonder
Oh well, I lost that shine - didn't I?
Not long ago, you held me
On the banks of rolling isles
Not long ago, you read to me
Pedantic poetry and I would smile
And if I could retrace it
I'd match the steps we took
To merely recreate it, lie to myself
Evеryone else don't forgеt
Not long ago, you held me
On the banks of rolling isles
Not long ago, our middlebrow
Status quo rituals sufficed
In a whirlwind spin around
In a whirlwind spin around
I waver in the night, toss, turn eleven times
And I won't apologize for something I'm not sorry for
Mind racing overtime, turns out all my friends were right
And I won't apologize for something I'm not sorry for
This cocktail is overpriced, I do my best to keep things light
But I won't apologize for something I'm not sorry for
Lay barren, eulogize, holy water, lemon rind
And I won't apologize for something I'm not sorry for
even the lyrics is very morrissey
Rankin's a gifted lyricist, and Alvvays has a knack for sweet-sounding, dream-pop ear-candy; probably best rock album of '22.
😍😍 Her voice is magic.
Love that the bass line only has one note for the first minute... and then when it finally drops to a B at the end of the first chorus I'm like oh man here we go
Yeeesss man these details are always great. They are awesome songwriters
The bass in the 2nd chorus :0
So so good!
Reminds me a lot of The Smiths.
Yeah I get What Difference Does It Make vibes, but lighter. I like it
Alvvays fans 🤝 The Smiths fans
Not being able to talk to women
Sounds like REM to my ears
Same here. Sounds like a track straight from “The Queen is Dead”
Sounds like Johnny Buck on Guitar. Or maybe Peter Marr. 😉
Huuuge Sundays vibes...never in a million years did I think anyone could come close but this album is amazing
my favourite from this masterpiece of blue rev. can't stop listening to it !!!! so addictive song.
Sublimely somber and yet beautiful. Alvvays in a nutshell.
Johnny Marr would be proud
I imagine this in a movie
So so so good. They have the best influences ever, which in this case is Johnny Marr.
That bridge to the end melts me
This Charming Man + I Want The One I Can't Have = Pressed 🎸 Pure Johnny Marr inspired magic!
yayyy comments are open so we can all talk about how much we love this
I just listened to this 31 times in a row on Loop
Those are rookie numbers gotta bump it up hahaha🤟
this is so jangle jangle.. i love it!
This might be the best song on the album...although I've said the same thing about others on it :)
Literally never was a fan of Alvvays before this album drop. This song is a freakin banger! 🎉
I love how Abbey just hangs out on F# until the second verse, then she goes exploring.
Para mi es un re homenaje a los Smiths! amo Alvvays
This album is so full of little moments I'm wowed by, in this one it's the syncopated drums on "DIDN'T I" around 0:21, they really punctuate that lyric
this charming man..?
Im finally happy with Alvvays new music
It be the day I've been waiting for! Cheers!
Better than anything Morrissey's made in decades
without Morrissey, this would've NEVER existed. Stop hating him because it's trendy
@@bredbasket but they're just saying the truth lmao
Solid Banger
Smith's as fuck, amazing
Anyone have any idea how the video was made? Love whatever that blue vhs background is
A letra lembra muito o filme "Sociedade dos poetas mortos".
People just saying the smiths but there is a large dose of R.E.M. in this also
Yeah I like this one like omg does molly have such an incredble and mesmerizing voice😄🥰❤️💙
essa música é incrível alvvays lançou uma masterpiece 💗
Very clever Mr. O'Hanley or Molly? I want the one l can't have, The Smiths at 1:10-1:15...these are the riches of the poor. Not exactly the same, but a very nice rendition. Really shows your range and ability. So awesome. Cheers!
This is such a "Smiths kinda" song... everything on it reminds me of that, and I fucking love it
❤
lets goooooo
The guitar sounds so much like Johnny Marr !

Very smithy
There's a little Cindy Wilson in this one
Waiting for the AI version with Morrissey vocals.

я тоже )
It's like Kate Bush meets the smiths and Heavenly ❤❤❤
AOTY contender!
Everyone is saying how similar this is to the Smiths … but I think this exactly sounds like Lush.

Woah
. Slow down
Julia Holter vibes on this one
Yes, the last 50 seconds has reminded of Holter for months now!
Noooo
the smiths, the organ but is alvvays.
I wont apologize for something im not sorry for. Its simple.
I don't want this compared to The Smiths. My doctor told me don't listen to The Smiths.
