The Smiths I


Todo mundo sabe que os Smiths, assim como o Radiohead podem ser uma banda com letras cortantes e densas. No caso dos Smiths, letras mais relacionadas a uma 'pena-de-si-mesmo', por vezes até melodramáticas. Hoje conversando com meu primo, selecionei as 5 letras mais tristes dos Smiths:

1. I know it's over ("Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head")
2. Please please please let me get what I want this time ("Good times for a change. See, the luck I've had can make a good man turn bad")
3.Half a person ("And if you have five seconds to spare then I'll tell you the story of my life")
4.Last night I dreamt that somebody loved me ("Last night I dreamt that somebody loved me. No hope, no harm, just another false alarm")
5. That joke isn't funny anymore ("When you laugh about people who feel so very lonely, their only desire is to die").

  2. Morrisey é um baita melancolico que com a ajuda da levada de Johonny Marr criou musicas tristes mas geniais ! Essa lista pode ser facilmente aumentada com:
    1.Reel Around The Fountain ("It's time the tale were told, Of how you took a child And you made him old")
    2.How Soon Is Now? ("You could meet somebody who really loves yo.So you go, and you stand on your own, And you leave on your own
    And you go home, and you cry and you want to die")
    3.Unloveable ("I know I'm unloveable,You don't have to tell me. Message received,Loud and clear").
    E por aí vai....
