  • The Smiths Biography And Top 10 Songs  By : Andy Jackson - Wisdom_Mcr
    The Smiths are another of my favourite Manchester bands and as I have said before, you have to support your own.

Some people think that The Smiths were a depressing band with very boring lyrics but I think I connected with them because of that. I like to be unique and different which I think is reflected by some of the music I listen to. I do think some of the songs contain very emotional lyrics but I wouldn't say they were too depressing or boring and actually quite funny.

    I have liked Texas ever since they released their first single (I Don't Want A Lover) while I was still at school. At the time I was still listening to "pop" music and the charts on the radio regularly (which I don't do much anymore) and I thought Sharleen had one of the best female singing voices I have ever heard. Usually when out at a party or at the pub and a DJ is on you are restricted by the music they carry but you can bet on the fact they will have at least one Texas song on a cd somewhere, so I generally ask them to play it because mostly they dont have some of my other favourite music (The doors, Jimi Hendrix, Wu-Tang, etc...) which I would probably request otherwise.
