I REALLY love The Smiths

The ripple that the smiths have formed in the ocean that is my life is like nothing else. Their songs have an eerie resemblance to the emotions that I used to find so hard to explain, if that makes sense. 

The Smiths are THE band for me, each album, each cover, every live version of their songs has made me feel such an extreme mix of emotions to the point the smiths are one of the few things I feel are truly irreplaceable. 

Life has been hitting hard lately, and has been reminding me that time is humanity's worst enemy. With time, every friendship goes sour, we all die, another species goes extinct, etc. This is a fact that cannot be denied, however, The Smiths have helped me find comfort in that fact. 

The lyrics of I Want The One I Can't Have have been something that I've found comfort in since I discovered them. The lyrics made me feel heard in a way I had never felt before discovering the song, and multiple other songs by The Smiths have made me feel a similar way. 

One of my favorites is Still Ill (the 1986 London live, to be specific), the rawness in the voice put my thoughts into sound and made me feel understood, the whole song feels like having a breakdown while realizing that your deepest fears about yourself are real. Which is a feeling that I've felt many times before.

Apart from the 1986 London live version, Still Ill has to be one of my all time favorite songs, the lyrics are one of the best things I've ever experienced and the instrumentals are the cherry on top. The original has a sort of defeated tone to it which is something I've taken a huge liking to.

I really want to finish this entry cuz it's almost 2am and I have a test tmrw so I'll just end it by saying that The Smiths have somehow managed to save my life and also completely destroy it. P.S. sorry if this entry is incomprehensible, I wrote this after midnight and I forget how to be normal after midnight!!

Farewell Everyone!!
