This band was just creative all the way, and what lyrics on "This Night Has Opened My Eyes" How the hell am I suppose to feel about this, great storytelling. I don’t follow what Morrissey says now, I don’t really care about how he carries himself nowadays. But what he said in his songs is just so incredibly strong, so relatable, so timeless. And his queer persona presented in his early works never fails to put a smile on my face. Because it makes fun of us, mere mortals captivated by superficial things like love, money, and fame. I have great respect for how ahead of the curve, and how unusual he was.

More harmonica begins the song, which utilizes a fast tempo full of energetic instrumentation, and yet Marr's guitar lines are soothing and calming. The song ends with another short harmonica solo.Vote up content that is on-topic, within the rules/guidelines, and will likely stay relevant long-term. We can get hold of a copy for you from one of our suppliers, but we cannot guarantee a delivery time. I could write “gorgeous melodies” as a description for every song on this album quite honestly. Marr employed a jangle style on the guitar lines, which is characterized by an undistorted and heavy treble sound. Morrissey's lyrics focus on sexual ambiguity and he uses a first person narrative technique which show off his storytelling abilities.

Propelled by Andy Rourke's beautiful bass-line, Morrissey sings about a couple with different views on their relationship and how they are perceived by society. There's also a bit of harmonica in the song that works well.I don't want a lover, I just want to be seen. These damn songs, this collection will never fade away. It has been a constant in my life ever since I heard it. It's been about 4 years of and Jangle Twang. Is it possible to make an album flow as well as this one?(it's not). Underneath the music, I could hear the faint whispers of the stranger, in his distinctly Leeds accent, like a musical Banquo haunting me with cries of ‘Hatful of Hollow’ and ‘Only Smiths record…’ as I entered adulthood, I started to realise what the stranger meant. Beginning with a jangle style guitar break by Marr, the narrative of the song moves between the two perspectives of a boy and a girl each dealing with their insecurities. Absolutely brilliant music. My second favorite song on the album. The epitome of depressive lyrical content mixed with happy, jangle pop melodies. It's an infectious blend that soars through your eardrums and ensures a permanent place in your head canon. There are also some darkly funny lines sung by Morrissey in this classic song.
