This song is great it gives me ahappy go lucky kinda feel. The tempo of this track is very upbeat and exciting. The lyrics are simple and repetitive but catchy which is very good because it’s not too complex of a song. 7/10

I have been a big fan of the smiths for the majority of my life , as they're my aunts favorite band. my love for the band comes more from the lyrics and intentions than the music itself ; and i adore morissey as a person. but that's my personal opinion.

I rate this song a 8. The vocalist has a very unique voice and it has an accent to it. I really liked it. It matched the song very well.

I like the smiths a lot. I like the sound a lot and how this song is kind of soft.
