Easily their least offensive song. How anyone listens to those vocals on the others is beyond me.

Prince... I despise him and everything he did from about 1980 going forward.

However, I always liked the song "When You Were Mine".

I enjoy the Smiths music well enough, not a huge fan or anything, but How Soon Is Now? is one of my favorite songs of all time. I wish they would have have made more music like that.

Paranoid Android. If their average song was within 50% of the same quality, they'd be one of the greatest of all time. Instead, it's essentially the only high point (with Creep and maybe Karmapolice being decent) in the entire catalogue. They are awful.




that is certainly a hot take.

I can't stand Dawes, but I will always like this song because of some memories associated with it and a girlfriend at the time.

Foo Fighters and Everlong is it for me. What a great song, then every single other song they ever released could've been titled "Please Make Us Popular!"

Just listen to Johnny Marr stuff. It's only reason to listen to The Smiths. And with that...

I heard a Dawes song once and immediately loved it. I didn't take the time then to figure out what it was. I've listened to many more trying to find it and not only cannot, but haven't liked anything I heard during the search.

Never liked Jimmy Eat World, but this song is beautifully sad. The story behind it is very sad.


That's a great song off a stellar album. JEW is weird where they straddle that shoegaze/grunge/pop punk/post punk thing. I don't love them but clarity and bleed American are really fantastic albums.

Don't care for Red Hot Chili Peppers too much. Will listen to Other Side.

I think most Limp Bizkit songs are way far on the cheesy side. Maybe it's Fred, but I just never could get into them. Love Re-arranged though. And Behind Blue Eyes, of course that's a cover though.
