Live or I Die . A very sad song, but fits any person in a depressive mood.
Steven Patrick Morrissey. It's been listed as Steven Patrick Morrissey and Stephen Patrick Morrissey in his bios.
"Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want". I think the song was poor Duckie's (Jon Cryer) theme song. He wanted Molly Ringwald's character (Andie) so bad. She ended up with Andrew McCarthy. What's up with that?
The Beatles. Wow, a lot of good bands came out of the UK and The Smiths ranked number one. Good stuff.
Morrissey's shirt. Morrissey is known for losing his shirt at concerts. Although he comes off as shy in his music, he's anything but.
"The Queen Is Dead". There have been numerous Smiths compilations released since their break up. "Rank" was the first compilation and the only live album (as of 2002) released after the 1987 break up. Record companies have to milk them for all they can, eh?
"Meat Is Murder". Since the words were not actually written on the helmet, they had to do a little doctoring to get it on there.
Louder Than Bombs. The compilation "Louder Than Bombs" also included tracks from earlier Smiths albums, like "Hatful Of Hollow".
James Dean. Morrissey always had a thing for James Dean and even wrote a book about him in his early days.
Yes. He graced the cover of "Shoplifters Of The World Unite".
The The. Marr went on to form Electronic with New Order's Bernard Sumner after his stint with The The.
No. Included on "Louder Than Bombs" and "The World Won't Listen".
| In "Stop me if you think you've heard this one before", Morrissey sings "...so I drank one, it became four", but what's written in the sleeve? | General THE SMITHS questions
|
...or was it four. The lyrics in the sleeve are all full of typing errors- I don't know the reason (lack of time, lack of interest...?)
