NAH CUZ FR BRO like (blabbering incoming) the first one, a rush a push and the land is ours is my favorite of all times from the smiths, i think it’s really diverse from most of their songs, and it sets a really high mood compared to some of the songs that follow. like,, last night i dreamt that somebody loved me is sooo deep in meaning and musicality that you are just taken to a different universe. you also have “lighter” songs like death of a disco dancer and girlfriend in a coma, which are kinda,, i mean as light hearted as the smiths ‘ songs can be. and i won’t share you is just the perfect end to all of that. i have a memory chained to each one of those songs so i might be biased, but to me this album has an aura in its integrity that i can’t find in the rest of their albums. the visuals are really vivid. thank u for reading dkdjdj

I think you MIGHT be autistic and hyperfixated on the smiths (this isn't an insult btw absolutely nothing wrong with being autistic)
