The Smiths- The Queen Is Dead
Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

Good album. "Bigmouth Strikes Again" is my favorite. "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

Yeah, my favorite Smiths song is either "Bigmouth Strikes Again" or "Shoplifters of the World," although "This Charming Man" and "Panic" are up there, too. "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

Well, this album is certainly great. Although Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others is a somewhat disappointing finale...
Being such a great album, it isn't my favourite of The Smiths. I prefer the first one and also Vauxhall And I, this one a Morrissey solo album. | |

I'll say this categorically, without nuances: Morrissey is the best lyricist EVER. And, looking at the current state of the pop music world, he will remain so. | |

I love their debut and Vauxhall and I as well. The Queen Is Dead seems to get the lions share of the praise but I think Strangeways is every bit as good. An awesome band, brilliant songwriting by Morrissey and Marr. | |

I Know Its Over is insane, the soul in his voice is magic [Edited 8/14/11 1:56am] | |

I understand why he has obsessive fans because the way he sings is just like nobody else. I Know Its Over slays me, I used to have to skip it, it was just too much. | |

You can also see the inspiraton for Radiohead on a lot of this album to... Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

A classic album, probably their best. I love Hatful of Hallow more, but technically that's really a compilation of thier radio sessions. I used to play the LP for hours and stare at the LP. Any Rourke in his tight jeans was a bit of a distraction for me [Edited 8/15/11 12:27pm] | |

Had a old co-worker hip me to them years ago and I was forever grateful Loved the songwriting.
It was a fair exchange; he gave me The Smiths while I introduced him to Terence Trent D'Arby. We both parted ways with mutual musical respect

Of course, Radiohead's Ed O'Brien and Phil Selway covered "There Is a Light That Never Goes Out" with Johnny Marr in the Neil Finn-led supergroup 7 Worlds Collide. "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |
