Frankly Mr. Shankly

Anyone know the tabs for the arpeggio part in Frankly Mr. Shankly, specifically the demo version. I can’t find tabs for it anywhere.

What’s a song you think is underrated?

Obviously catalogue wise The Smiths have released a whole lot of music. What’s a song or demo etc that you think doesn’t get the love it deserves? I really enjoy What Difference Does It Make?

Especially the line “the devil will find work for idle hands” while obviously not written for the song I think the inclusion of it in the song is wonderful.

What instrumental or vocal element “makes” a song for you?

What I mean is, something that isn’t found within all Smiths songs but rather was a creative add on/artistic choice

Ex: I don’t think Hand in Glove would be the same without Johnny Marr’s harmonica - it just makes it for me

How come Morrissey added an entire new line in the live version of "some girls are bigger than others" and what did he say?

Wonderful Woman Cover Art

I was trying to find the sources and people on all the cover arts of the smiths singles and noticed there was no information about this particular one. So who is this?

Song recs

I'm looking for songs similar to William it was really nothing, and I Want the One I Can't Have, I enjoy the upbeat flow and complex lyrics like " a double bed and a stalwart lover for sure these are the riches of the poor." Does anyone have any recommendations?

It was mutual

Everybody always says that Morrissey was obsessed with Johnny but Johnny didn't receive etc., but wasn't this mutual? Just look at the answer to "What do you eat?" I was surprised when I saw this
