Worst ever Smiths/Morrissey song

[Thrupenny Bits]

I cannot take this thread seriously - someone voted for Never Had No-one Ever. Not only are subjective opinions worthless, that one is just plan ice-and-grit.

Very well said. Oh no vere had no one ever is superb and so beautiful.

I love all his songs because it's him and his lyrics.

But I would have to say least listened to would be

Morrissey: America is not the world

The Smiths: Paint a vulgar picture

Re: Worst ever Smiths/Morrissey song.

Maurice e you are f***ing nuts.
IMO most of those are classics. Tony the Pony.. legendary song.
I would agree with moonriver.

I take it from your opening sentence you're under the impression that is Maurice's personal list. It's just a copy of paste from the poll results as voted by members of this forum

 

[Suedebread]

Oh, and a few of my least-listened to are

Moonriver
I'm Playing Easy To Get
Money Changes Everything
Noise Is The Best Revenge
I Am Two People
My Life Is A Succession Of People Saying Goodbye
There Speaks A True Friend
That's Entertainment
The Draize Train

Morrissey-Journalists Who Lie

I like all Smiths songs!

 

[MuteWitness616]

Nobody mentioned Mexico for least enjoyable song!

Remember? That song is about Mexican candy and the Moz Krew.

 

[EPbabe]

Morrissey - He Knows (I'd Love to See Him)
The Smiths - This Night Has Opened My Eyes

 

[Kelley]

The Smiths: Golden Lights
Morrissey: Sorrow will come in the end

Morrissey-Journalists Who Lie

I like all Smiths songs!

I share your opinion on both counts.

I suspect the only reason why more people aren't nominating Journalists Who Lie is because, with it being a non-compiled b-side, they may not have heard it.

Yeah, whatever.

Never Had No-One Ever sounds like the entire band can't be arsed.

The lyrics are genius but they only last for half the song, then it's just our Mozza moaning over a background of nothing.

What are great lyrics without the music to match? They're a poem.

But maybe because it's a cool song

It's disturbing me how some of the songs people are listing as terrible are songs I absolutely love.

 

[MyDoppelganger]

The Smiths: Golden Lights, Miserable Lie
Moz: Bengali in Platforms, American is Not the World, I Have Forgiven Jesus, I Like You

The Smiths - This Night Has Opened My Eyes

WHAT?!

Just goes to show how completely subjective musical opinion is.

NOOOOO Sorrow will come in the end has got to be one of the songs where Moz sounds the sexiest.
