"The Smiths were THE great lost band of the nineties and are probably more successful now than when they were together. This 23 track compilation finally brings together all the best Smiths tracks on a single CD, instead of split between Best of 1 and Best of 2, and the Singles CD. From the genesis of all grunge tracks - "How Soon is Now" ('I am the sun and the air', used on that Toyota commercial) to the anger of "Panic" ('Hang the DJs, hang the DJ's'), to the cruel wit of "Bigmouth Strikes Again" ('Sweetness, I was only joking when I said by rights you should be strangled in your bed.').
Tracklisting: 1. Panic 2. Boy with the thorn in his side 3. Heaven knows I'm miserable now 4. Ask 5. Bigmouth strikes again 6. How soon is now 7. This charming man 8. What difference does it make 9. William it was really nothing 10. Some girls are bigger than others 11. Girlfriend in a coma 12. Hand in glove 13. There is a light that never goes out 14. Please please please let me get what I want 15. That joke isn't funny anymore 16. I know it's over 17. Sheila take a bow 18. I started something I couldn't finish 19. Still ill 20. Shakespeare's sister 21. Shoplifters of the world unite 22. Last night I dreamt that somebody loved me 23. Stop me if you think that you've heard this one before
The combined lyrical snideness of Morrissey with the innovative guitar work of Johnny Marr has only improved with age. If you were to pick a single album that defined the direction of music in the nineties, this it is.
If you miss this, you'll know how Joan of Arc felt as the flames rose to her Roman nose and her Walkman started to melt."
The great lost band of the nineties? Ok, I posted this only because I thought it was funny and you all would get a kick out of it. Let's be adults and not blast this poor woman with hateful email. Thanks.
