'Everybody knows, what's going wrong, with the world... I don't even know what's going on, in myself' might well be the greatest lyric ever, in my humble opinion, backed by truly incredible instrumentals.
The year was 1991. I was serving in the airborne troops of Brazil and I would connect my TV on MTV at 03:30 am while wearing my uniform and listening to this song! To this day it does not leave my playlist.
The genius of Matt Johnson partnered with the stellar guitarist and harmonica player Johnny Marr. It doesn't get much better than this. Too bad most people never even heard this song in the States when it came out (well ... at least I didn't!). Can't describe how satisfying it is listening to Marr's rhythm guitar, overlaid with the lead guitar; So clean and sweet, I want it to go on forever!
@@hurpaderpp I saw Matt at the Vic in Chicago ca 2008, Marr wasn't with him, but it was a phenomenal show. I've loved the Smiths from the late 80s but didn't know much about the scene (like Cure, New Order, Joy Division), but just always loved the great melodies paired with dark British humor. I could go on for pages but probably don't have an actual point other than I love these blokes along with many unmentioned (Americans too). Long live rock n roll, whatever form it may take.
@@wordup897 Love the other bands you listed. Mustve been tough to find music back then, I was lucky to be born in the 90s and discover the smiths and new wave and such
Not at all...I was listening (and playing bass guitar to TheThe all through my teenage years in the 90's. Perfect sort of music for teen angst :P I'm almost 4-0 now.
There are similar comments on every The The TH-cam video. A hugely underrated band and Matt Johnson was hugely underrated. This was one of their best tracks from one of their best albums and after nine years it only has 360k views.
Thrlere Is not underrated atlrtis. The ones who suck up to the system are the one that are highly rated. This won't fly in america. Can you show miserable middle class people in NYC who live on the streets. No, absolutely. In America everyone dance and looks beautiful. This is what tv wants to show. These videos and music will make people to use their brains
Matt Johnson, in an interview by Johnny Marr, recounted that they returned to that bar a few months later only to learn that the elderly gentlemen had passed away :(
@@bigworldddd9566 that part makes it even more beautiful. One of the better music videos because of that spirited monologue intro. I remember it from vwoegûh.. and that's quite something something!
Saw The The open for DM in New Orleans on the SOFAD tour… the ill-famed show where Dave Gahan had a heart attack and they cut the set short. Anyway, both bands were magnificent and Dave pulled through in the end.
Saw The The Dusk tour in Chicago at the Riv (The The alone), then again a coupe years ago same place. Matt's voice was and remains one of the best I've ever heard live.
Johnny Marr was superb on this album Matt is ahead of the curve with his lyrics on this song, masterful stuff, even more relevant today, the gent at the start always makes me cry, the sadness in his eyes
I just can't understand why this song never became more popular. I was a mild The The fan back in the 80's and then lost touch--and only just now discovered this gem. This may become my anthem in an era of social media where I've never been less sure of the all the people out there who now seem to be more sure of themselves than ever--on war, religion, god, love, sex and death (to name a few).
I hear you. Same here. Yep. Everyone else knows what's going wrong out there & are busily tearing each other apart over all of it. Meanwhile, learning to know yourself becomes an obscure art (because it's almost unthinkable to question oneself ~ and terrifying).
Let's give Boston based Harmonica player Jim Fitting much respect for his work in this album . Great songwriting aside , Johnny Marr and Jim really helped perk ears up on this album. A classic. A harmonica driven classic, rock album.
That melody has endured in my mind, since I first heard this song in the early(?) ‘90’s, on WXPN based on Philadelphia. I’ve long since moved on, into many other genres, but this sticks with me.
I loved hearing this song come on in 1993, a very poignant and observation for people to gather even in this day and time. I understood this song as a kid, even though it had a very awkward tune that we often made fun of is even more adored now for today. I'm a 33 year old black man today and this song still moves me quicker than any dumb song of today. I truely thank the entertainers of my generation for these wonderful songs that stay in my heart all these years.😪
"Into this earth we fall....on hands and knees we crawl...." matt johnsons lyrics make me cry.....they are so profound and simple at the same time.....he blows me away everytime
Literally, out of hundreds of seen shows, seeing The The in 90-91 was unbelievable. Johnny Marr and Matt Johnson put on an awesome show, tight, long and loud.
MATT, your records were one of the best I ever listened too. And I'll never forget neither, that it was you, who told the world that your friend MARK HOLLIS, another real great artist & musician, died. A part of MARC BOLAN & DAVID BOWIE, I guess no other Musician was so important for me. Not even Edwyn Collins, Kevin Rowland or Billy McKenzie. Not even Strummer or Lydon. Not even Cale or Reed. Not even Fripp or Eno. Not even Lennon, Richards and Davies. CHEERS, MATE, may you feel very well ! C.
The riffs are basically The smiths 'Some girls are bigger than others'....legend has it JM hated Moz' lyrics to that one, so reused the music on a better track....
Que espetáculo de músicas, trocava muito na rádio cidade do Rio, a radio voltou essa semana e acabou de tocar essa música estou lembrando o tempo de moleque que eu viajava nesse som e ainda viajo, votou todas as memórias. Great.

Hate, violence, sickness, poverty, corruption, war, cruelty, prejudice, sadness but more than anything that feeling that you're missing something vital, that if you could reach it, would make your life and everyone else's better.
The pain I feel every fucking day.... Prison exists outside of its own walls....and i am determined to survive untill my body gives out. They walked out on me but I won't forsake myself. God is with me every .....fucking day.....
Everybody knows what's going on with the world, I don't even know what's going on with myself. Lord I've been here for so long, I can feel it coming down on me. I'm just a slow emotion replay of somebody I used to be.
I heard this song on the radio in November 2019 and only found it today, even though it never left my head, I didn't give up looking for it, despite having heard it during childhood I never knew its name. I am very happy.
I think Matt Johnson has to at least be in the discussion when they make lists like "25 Greatest Rock Singers." I can't imagine any other singer doing a cover of this song that would surpass Johnson. Since he's only 60 (I was surprised he wasn't older!) he should have quite a number of good years ahead of him.
I would suggest because he knew that the alcoholic, (just look at his nose), had something to say but had spent most of his life being ignored. His story was amazing and would not have come out had he not been pushed. It wasn't like he was being set up to be laughed at but rather he his life story was being respected.
"What would you do to solve the problems in the world today?" "I would just love my brother.. and my sister." "...what are the problems in the world today?" "Well, we have sickness, and we have..unemployment..."
1 Timothy 1:9 We realize that law is not enacted for the righteous, but for the lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinful, for the unholy and profane, for killers of father or mother, for murderers, 2Timothy 2:9 for which I suffer to the extent of being chained like a criminal. But the word of God cannot be chained! 10For this reason I endure all things for the sake of the elect, so that they too may obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory. 11This is a trustworthy saying: If we died with Him, we will also live with Him;…
Will never forget the The The live in Lycabettus Theatre in the early '90s. Those bright guitar riffs of Johnny Marr had filled the night sky and we were all so very very happy.
One of the formative bands, of my youth. Still love 'em..always original. This track video is particularly powerful Matt has included some brilliant artists over the years. Hope there's many more years, for more The The. ❤
I was a teen by the 90s. Have no idea about who sings and the songs name. Almost 30 trying to discover… finally I got today. Listened to this and cried like a baby. Remembered how happy I was at that time. Thank you so much for this gift
I never knew this video existed wth the short film at the beginning. I was going to post this song because it rang true in my heart, and seeing this blew my mind.
They released a video of 4 songs, with random interviews in-between each track. The songs were Slow Emotion Replay, Love Is Stronger Than Death, Dogs Of Lust and... maybe it was 3 songs? I'm working from a faulty memory here. I actually have the video (VCR) but have no idea where it is. lol Anyway, interviews were to discuss the upcoming song's theme. It's really good. The director's surname was Pope. That's all I can remember.
I'm going to look for my copy and turn it into digital version one day, then I'll upload it (if it's allowed). It'll be a while... things to do, things to do. One day though I'll come back here and post a link. ;)
I've been a rabid fan of The The since the days of "uncertain smile" and "waiting for tomorrow all of my life", and this song is like the ultimate climax of Matt's grand collaboration.
That is a deep intro.....Im weeping for mother nature in 2021 late august. hold on world, and togheter we will not only disclose em all.. we will win. I love you all "777"
the only problems are the ones we make ourselves, period. matt johnson is a frikkin' genius. more pertinent today than 20-30 years ago. matt you were visionary, we need you! now more than ever!

Same.

Saw The The open for DM in New Orleans on the SOFAD tour… the ill-famed show where Dave Gahan had a heart attack and they cut the set short. Anyway, both bands were magnificent and Dave pulled through in the end.

Gave me goosebumps 25 yrs ago and still does. And I still don't know what's going on with myself.

Been a fan of this band since 1983...seen him live in Hollywood.( I'm a Texan)..This band has been my inner muse...forever it seems..

Because the US could not market a supposedly "socialist band". Very sad, plus the whole "not firmly Christian" doesn't help.
Great comment - yes
This song was very popular
This song was often played at studio brussels. It still stands so for me timeless song

the first 4 minutes of the video ... he doesn't have to answer, it's in his eyes. I love you, The The!
When that man in the beginning of the video started to cry, I cried. So raw. So good.

50% dessa música produzido pelo ex guitarrista do The Smith, alias Johnny Marr e um gênio.

A MÚSICA É MUITO LEGAL MAS SEM ESSA INTRODUÇÃO LONGA DO CLIPE!
É uma obra de arte !
Another masterpiece of a song, ´the more I see the less I know`.

This song is utterly beautiful. I've cried to it. The old guy at the start of the vid is fucking awesome. He has soul, feelings, a big heart!!

Used to listen to this w/ my wife my in a pub in Blood Alley, watch the rain.. I miss her and this song brings up a ton of emotions
Everybody knows what's going on with the world,
I don't even know what's going on with myself.
Lord I've been here for so long, I can feel it coming down on me.
I'm just a slow emotion replay of somebody I used to be.
This is one of those insanely underplayed and underrated songs.
The beginning is it’s own theatrical masterpiece. The The gives art and gets it too.
If I could meet any musical celebrity in person, it would Matt Johnson.

Live your life how you want and look out for each other, life is short and it’s too short for regret......try be good to each other.
As astounding now, as it ever has been. The The have been my mainstay for decades and saved me, more than once. Heartfelt thanks.
Found it!...I've always loved this video and song...when music had a soul...

Matt Johnston is the most underrated song Smith of my generation.
"What would you do to solve the problems in the world today?"
"I would just love my brother.. and my sister."
"...what are the problems in the world today?"
"Well, we have sickness, and we have..unemployment..."

Slow emotion. 😁
Day after day, that song make's more and more sense to me...

Beautiful, just so beautiful. Brings back so many memories ❣
