    Default Happy Lovers At Last United

    Always thought this song was quite good since it was leaked, but I'm listening to it more and more recently and I'm really starting to think it's one of the very best songs of his career. Anyone in agreement?
    And the Fulham Road lights stretch and invite into the night...

    yeah, its a fun and catchy song, once you play it and listen a few times the tune and lyrics stay in your head for days, until you find yourself listening to it on repeat far too often

    Aye it's a very good song..but of course the more you listen to it...then the less you feel it's special...just like everything else you overdose on.

    Oh No ! Oscillate Wildly is fantastic in my ears..just really Golden Lights is that one flaw in the Smiths cannon.

    Yeah, I love it. It has that simplicity and economy in the lyric and feels as natural as a conversation. Excellent.
    By being alive he is blocking his own way. From this obstruction, he derives the proof that he is alive.

    Erm, yeah, I always skip those two.
    I had to give up on waking up to LTB because it was always on one of the two as I stepped out of the shower...

    I do really like Happy Lovers, top 20 at least.
