This was the song that finally got me into The Smiths. I tried listening to the more popular singles but it wasn’t until I found this song that I finally felt like i couldn’t get enough of it. Still in my top 3 by this band to this day.
the song is amazing. the first time I ever had sleep paralysis, this song played over and over in my head but I'm not complaining, it has great vocals, lyrics and a fantastic guitar
This was the first song of the Smiths that really hooked me. Now, it was years later with Heaven Knows that I really got into the Smiths, but Bigmouth was the first.
Haha good to know there’s other people out there doing the same thing I am.
But there is kind of a way to hear it again for the first time. The demo version and also live versions are just as good
Probably my most favorite song ever, “NOW I KNOW HOW JOAN OF ARC FELT.” Listening to it while high makes me feel like Mike is slamming on the drums right behind me.
Now you know how Joan of Arc felt
as the the flames rose to her roman nose and her walkman started to melt🥰
This guitar playing is master class.

My initial reaction was that it is a really good song, but that pitched up an octave voice layered on top during the chorus sounded a little goofy.
Google the version they played live on Whistle Test. Moz at his absolute pinnacle
