How Soon is Now - The Smiths

Love that song.....think Morrisey's vocal style made all Smiths songs very distinctive but it's style is very different to some of their stuff

"London" by The Smiths is almost Punk like with its in your face fast paced style

So different from their normal style.

E.g.

First time I’ve ever heard that, I like it, would make a good Hogmanay song.

Elton John - Passengers - apparently he doesn't like it because it doesn't sound like an Elton John song which is exactly the reason I like it.

It sounds like something from an '80s New Wave band.
