As a huge Smiths fan, this is 100% accurate. "I Know It's Over" has to be one of the most depressing songs I've ever heard. That's not to say I don't like it.
Its a generic love song, just like a infinite number of others, without any literary density. Doesent hold a candle compared to anything in the trully dark debut. This album is sellfish garbage, no wonder why they dissolved.
In my opinion, meat is murder is really good and it's the second best. Louder than bombs it's a very complete compilation, but I prefer Hatful of hollow
The songs: 0:02 The Queen is Dead 0:09 Frankly, Mr. Shankly 0:18 I Know it’s Over 0:23 Never Had No one Ever 0:31 Cemetery Gates 0:36 Big Mouth Strikes Again 0:43 The Boy with the Thorn in His Side 0:48 Vincar in a Tutu 0:55 There is a Light That Never Goes Out 1:04 Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others
Never had no one ever, I know it’s over, William it was really nothing, and half a person are my favorite smiths songs. The first smiths song I heard was I know it’s over and I immediately fell it love with it.
@@rocklee6306 the most superficial and bland. Marr give up his characteristic arpeggios melodies that counterpoint Morrisey angusty vocal and started playing ordinary basic strumming, Andy Rourke doesent assume the lead like in Pretty Girls Make Graves or Barbarism Begins at Home and Mike Joyce no longer performs the extraordinary turns that occasionally occurred on his debut album. Not to mention the lyrics, which gave up the dense literary content that ran through the debut album, with the enigmatic, melancholic and abstract lyrics of Morrisey, the anguished celibate, to instead write romantic junk and flood the album with other humorous lyrics. The experimental passages present in tracks like the falsetto of Miserable Lie, the ending of Pretty Girls Make Graves, the cries drowned in the mix of Suffer Little Children, and so on, are longer gone now. The Queen Is Dead is a safe and diluted album to attract brainless people like you.
