The Smiths - Unhappy Birthday

Best song to play for a nasty ass ex on their b-day.

this is one of my favourite songs. "i might feel slightly sad, but i won't cry."

In my modest opinion, the songs "Unhappy Birthday" and "Death At One's Elbow" are the weakest ones in the album. They should have never been included in this last album. I read Morrissey saying, years later of the "Strangeways..." release, something like this. Even hough he did not refer to this two songs in particularly.

This two songs rank only as average B sides for a Smiths single, compared with the high quality of almost all of the other B sides. Although the lyrics are really nice, the songs are not that interesting, not for a Smiths album at least. This only reveals the top quality craft of The Smiths albums.

2nd best song on Strangeways just after "Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before"

My ex's birthday is tomorrow. I can't wait to send this to him!

hahaha i understend you :)
