This Charming Man is #1 in my book. #2 Panic, #3 Ask, #4 YGETN, #5 Some Girls, # 6 Jeane, #7 Barbarism, #8 Last Night I Dreamt, #9 Girl Afraid, #10 Miserable Lie. NGL, I love all their songs, Hatful is the best album.
Good list. Remember that Hatful is not really an "album", though... it's a compilation of radio studio recordings of previously released songs and two singles... an important distinction I think.
@Chris Fenton I can see that. But still my fave release overall. Curious, based on that criteria, how would you classify World Won't Listen & Louder Than Bombs?
@@theScienceLabLive The same - The World Won't Listen was the 2nd UK compilation album; Louder Than Bombs was the US compilation release - combining Hatful and WWL with a few differences. The 4 "proper" albums are the debut, Meat is Murder, TQID and Strangeways. We also got Rank (live) during the same timeframe - they hated it though. Later during the 90s and the 00s, there were more compilations and best of releases - a whole different era, of course. I hear you - I often listen to the compilation albums, too.
@@ObscureSZN Actually it's almost live, and captures the whole essence of the song, the tempos go faster, the drums are something else, and the guitar goes more wild and rock'n'roll

I think I'd have "Suffer Little Children" on mine for sure. That song is harrowingly sad because of the subject matter, but also evokes tenderness for children just in the music alone, not just the lyrics. It's a song that makes the children more powerful than their murderers.
@@mleone77 you said it well. I can feel the darkness and the wind on the moors, the loneliness and desperation of these poor kids and the terrible grief of their families in this song... 😢

Where's Pretty Girls Make Graves, Ask, Heaven Knows; list ain't even close, sorry, not sorry. This night has opened my eyes is criminally underrated, as well.

it is almost impossible for me to rank them because I love all the songs so much but here's my attempt: 1. There Is a Light That Never Goes Out 2. Ask 3. Barbarism Begins at Home 4. I Know It's Over 5. Unlovable 6. Bigmouth Strikes Again 7. Rubber Ring 8. A Rush and a Push and the Land Is Ours 9. Paint a Vulgar Picture 10. You Just Haven't Earned It Yet, Baby
There was a light that never goes out, it ends every tribute made to The Smiths... It should be number one, it is their most played and celebrated song. Ps: I'm from Brazi l, The Smiths have a legion of fans here !
My own top: 1. How Soon Is Now 2. There's A Light That Never Goes Out 3. The Headmaster Ritual 4. Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others 5. Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me 6. The Boy With A Thorn In His Side 7. Hand In Glove 8. Well I Wonder 9. I Want The One I Can't Have 10. I Know It's Over

It’s almost like everyone has a different opinion from one another, and have different preferences on their favourite things. Mind blowing, but a fact of life. Get over it.
personally would not even have stop me if you think that you’ve heard this one before in my top 10 list, let alone at first place. they have so many better songs, each to their own though
Was literally about to post this exact comment 😂. I've got about 5-6 tracks in my head competing for that #1 spot but SMIYTTYHTOB is not even in the conversation for me, personally

100%. Instantly goes in my top 5 and one of my favourite lyrics; "And as I'm lying in my bed, I think about life and I think about death... And neither one particularly appeals to me"
'How soon is Now' was way ahead of its time , its one epic fkn song, number 1 for me every time. Thanks for reminding me to add them to my current play list 👍
1. This Charming Man 2. Pretty Girls Make Graves 3. There is a Light that Never Goes Out 4. I Won’t Share You 5. I Know It’s Over 6. This Night Has Opened My Eyes 7. Back to The Old House 8. Please, Please, Please Let me Get What I Want 9. Bigmouth Strikes Again 10. The Hand that Rocks the Cradle
“Heaven knows I’m miserable now” and “Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want” should be 1&2 respectfully. The Smiths wrote and recorded and total of only 70 songs. But their influence on music stands the test of time. RIP Andy 🙏🏼🕊️

There's a light..." deserves first place, because it is the Best music of The Smiths and the best music of the eighties...
this night has opened my eyes...
There was a light that never goes out, it ends every tribute made to The Smiths... It should be number one, it is their most played and celebrated song.
Ps: I'm from Brazi l, The Smiths have a legion of fans here !

Bigmouth strikes again has always been my personal favorite of theirs 🥰
👍👍👍👍👍
Honestly.. I know it’s short but Please Please is my absolute personal favorite. Idk why it just is. 😅😅😅
True true true, I'm obsessed with this song
Did you know the music playing in the ‘Museum’ scene of “Ferris Buller’s Day Off” is Please, please…but remade by Dream Academy? Love that song
WHERE IS *PRETTY GIRLS MAKE GRAVES* ❤
FR DAWG ITS SO GOOD
"I need to be loved just like anybody else does" 😢❤

That’s the not the most well know songs! That’s a proper fan opinion :)
True
@@johnlionmusic But it is a great one.
Ugh…same.
For me…It epitomizes the moments of vast loneliness felt as we go completely and utterly unnoticed by someone of romantic interest. Who could actually NOT feel this song???
Doing one of this is so difficult xD, they have so many great songs

Hi :)
STOP ME AT FIRST PLACE?! WHAT?!
It’s almost like everyone has a different opinion from one another, and have different preferences on their favourite things. Mind blowing, but a fact of life. Get over it.
Barbarism Begins At Home should also be there. So underrated
Been listening to The Boy With the Thorn in his Side and Handsome Devil on loop for about 4 hours
1. Charming man
2. There's a light
3. How soon is now
4. Some girls
The rest are all 5th and change depending on mood.
Boy With a Thorn in His Side is my fave
For me too
Well I wonder, I won't share you, heaven knows I'm miserable now🤔
Don't care what order there in there all bangers
There is a light that never goes out, how soon is now, hevean knows I’m miserable now, and back to the old house are my top favs
personally would not even have stop me if you think that you’ve heard this one before in my top 10 list, let alone at first place. they have so many better songs, each to their own though
Was literally about to post this exact comment 😂.
I've got about 5-6 tracks in my head competing for that #1 spot but SMIYTTYHTOB is not even in the conversation for me, personally
Guess who just got my tickets to see Morrissey in Milwaukee next month. I’m the luckiest guy in the world 🏳️🌈❤️
Stop boasting ;) that’s awesome bro !! Enjoy :) I’d like to see him and Marr as well one day
I love this charming man
Top Ten Smiths Songs:
1. How Soon Is Now?
2. This Charming Man
3. Handsome Devil
4. Please Please Please
5. Oscillating Wildly
6. William, It Was Really Nothing
7. Girl Afraid
8. Heaven Knows…
9. Reel Around The Found
10. Some Girls Are Bigger…
Nobody really mentions "Please, please, let me get what I want" despite being painfully short it slaps.
i thought "ask" would be on the list and "pretty girls make graves" they are my personal favorites
Why no one is talking about Nowhere Fast? personally I think it's one of their best songs xD
100%. Instantly goes in my top 5 and one of my favourite lyrics;
"And as I'm lying in my bed, I think about life and I think about death... And neither one particularly appeals to me"
Top 20
I wouldn’t consider stop me as a top 10 smiths song let alone the number 1 spot.
It’s so good! The intro is 🔥
That’s the fun part about opinions int it
I love “Wonderful Woman” & “This Night has Opened my Eyes”.💕
'How soon is Now' was way ahead of its time , its one epic fkn song, number 1 for me every time. Thanks for reminding me to add them to my current play list 👍
Superr buenísima banda
So many great songs !
1. This Charming Man
2. Pretty Girls Make Graves
3. There is a Light that Never Goes Out
4. I Won’t Share You

6. This Night Has Opened My Eyes
7. Back to The Old House
8. Please, Please, Please Let me Get What I Want
9. Bigmouth Strikes Again
10. The Hand that Rocks the Cradle
“Heaven knows I’m miserable now” and “Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want” should be 1&2 respectfully. The Smiths wrote and recorded and total of only 70 songs. But their influence on music stands the test of time. RIP Andy 🙏🏼🕊️
One of the greatest British bands for sure
Great band ) love it ❤ ) hello from Russia 🇷🇺
