What the f***? Shakespeare's Sister is one of the greatest Smiths songs of all time. The Boy With The Thorn In His Side also is.
Stretch Out and Wait???

...You probably think, why am I a Morrissey fan? At least Bona Drag and Your Arsenal aren't there though! That's a start, at least! I know I like at least 14 "Sword songs" and I know many B-sides and demos I like!
Plus there is no Smiths song I hate...

Blimey! Viva Hate, indeed. You really do hate Morrissey, don't you?
Not really, just the untalented musicians that don't come up with any good guitar riffs, "Maladjusted" sounded mostly the same with me and I dislike all the music to "Ringleader of the Tormentors", as there's nothing to remember throughout the album except for 2 songs.
Not really, just the untalented musicians that don't come up with any good guitar riffs......
Johnny Marr is a good guitarist with good riffs in his head, that's why I like The Smiths I suppose...
Er, Vini Reilly wasn't a talented musician?
cheers

On the other hand, he didn't compose any of the songs on Viva Hate. Or did he?
Okay, if we're excepting the Smiths' cover versions, then I'm going for the instrumentals. All three of them. Not that they're awful or anything, they're just fairly irrelevant. I cannot think of any Smiths song with vocals and written by Marr/Morrissey that I would call less than great in any other than a relative (to other Smiths songs) sense.
cheers
Totally agree. i wasn't really counting the instrumentals either. A Smiths song with no Morrissey isn't a Smiths song atall.
Of cause he is...purely with The Durutti Column.
He was early Morrissey and that was the best time for Morrissey solo-wise anyway, Suedehead for example

It's Johnny Marr's band anyway
How can you not like "The Draize Train"?
Define a Smiths song then
It's Johnny Marr's band anyway, so it's actually equal to any other Smiths song.
