Just thought I'd share this article in today's edition of The A.V. Club. It's an article on favorite "deep" album cuts (read: not well known/not singles).

I'm delighted to see Rubber Ring here. I couldn't agree more; it's without a doubt one of my favorite Smiths songs (read: favorite songs of all time) and it's good to see someone sharing the opinion.

Any thoughts? Any other favorite Smiths deep cuts?

  • Dear Friends and Fans,

    "Well I Wonder" is my favourite "deep" cut by The Smiths. This song is filled with complex emotion--brutal feelings. The song is compelling. Based on my adolescence and early adulthood, this song described exactly my entire "self" from ages 11 through 19. Morrissey is at his poetic best during this song--earnest and sincere. A message we don't want to necessarily acknowledge--a reflection that we must hear.

    Peace,
    Ken S.

  • I think Jeane is one of The Smiths' best songs. A great riff, archetypical Morrissey lyrics. And by the way, being a fan favorite does not disqualify a song from being a deep cut, so I think Well I Wonder counts.

    On an occasion of this kind it becomes more than a moral duty to speak one's mind. It becomes a pleasure. -O.W.
