Monday Song of the Day

Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now by the Smiths (click to listen)
Although I'm not currently depressed, I've selected one of the greatest mope songs of all time as song of the day. The Smiths were a great band. I love Johnny Marr's atmospheric guitars in their songs. Their 1985 concert at Warner Theater in Washington, DC with Billy Bragg opening is in my all time top 10. I'm getting miserable just thinking of this song. Its that powerful.
By the way, if you're ever interested in any of the bands I select, you can go to allmusic.com to find out more and order cd's if you wish.

I wasn't into the Smiths in the 80s but since my friend and I started our 80s blog, I totally love them. The title of this song cracks me up...although I know that wasn't what they were going for!
