Put it like this... great lyrics separate the great artists from the good ones.
A great song doesnt have to have great lyrics, but you pay attention to the lyrics of a great artist. |

They didnt a expect a gringo to be so radical did they?
I used to have Your Arsenal and have heard various other Smiths songs, and he's a great artist, but personally... this guy might as well be from Venus to me, most of our views are likely so so far apart lol. I've always viewed him as an ultra liberal vegan type and we probably couldnt agree on many things... nonetheless this is a beautiful song... |

I read that some in the English press dubbed him a racist and bigot because of the imagery the Smiths used, but anyone who reads his lyrics would know that is anything but the case. I DO believe he has an issue with women, particularly fat ones. lol. And, he has apparently has lost any love he may have had for the beat generation, or he is praising them in a most absurd and roundabout way:

Most songs done after about 1990 are not understandable....matters not the artist or kind of music. Singers do not enunciate and they run it through a ton of goofy electronics. Soundhound is a big help, you can read what the artist is trying to say.

I listen to the words all the time. A lot of them are, as others have said, rather vapid, but a lot of others are either beautiful, intriguing, or downright enlightening.

Dear, God. Every post I read from you makes me believe you're older and older. By my count, you must be about 97, you old fart. Do you enjoy life whatsoever? |

And I agree with him to an extent, you can hardly understand what people are saying anymore.... lol I'm getting old! 505 you're right, the guitar work on that song might be the best of the album. |
