Help with Mz lyric please?

[blink853]

I have a feeling that the line "remember the songs that saved your life" is a morrissey/smiths lyric. Am I right? If so, what is the song?

I tried googling it, but couldn't find it, thought you lot would know though...?

"don't forget the songs, that made you cry
and the songs that saved your life"

I hope I've got that perfectly right. It's from Rubber Ring, a Smiths song.

Thankyou! I wasn't sure if I'd even made the lyric up, but I was sure it was the smiths/Morrissey.
You've stopped me being bugged by it now!

I just Googled the exact phrase "remember the songs that saved your life," and all 3 results that came up were about Morrissey.

I just tried it, and it didn't come up with the answer! Maybe I'm just not google-competent...

Its a great lyric from a truly amazing Smiths song called Rubber Ring:

am sure you know it but if not check it out live here, its a nice performance from the meltdown festival in 2004: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SCaZ6bta1Qw

its also the name of a very good book about the Smiths songs:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Smiths-Song...bs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1205513274&sr=8-1

well worth a read this one.

Help with Moz lyric!

Ok, I am genuinely scared...I used to relate to this lyric so well and recently i just thought "Erm, what does actually mean". Last week I knew and now I just keep forgetting, can someone help? It seems so bloody simple too:

"people think all we do is lie around and think about how rich we’d be if we didn’t think life could improve"

Love PTxx.

Re: Help with Moz lyric!

i think it's in regards to critics who think artists like moz bank off of their morbidity, as if it's an act, and a commodity....I could be wrong though

It's thread-merging madness all over again!

I think that is pretty much what I use to think.

Thanks, other opinions welcome.

Love PTxx.
