I like The Smiths - I would love to do a song with The Smiths, because they are so sonically different.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The Smiths was an incredibly personal thing to me. It was like launching your own diary to music.
The Smiths hasn't been equaled. That goes for the composition of the songs, the lyrics, and the performance.
I kinda learned to sing singing to Echo and the Bunnymen songs and Smiths songs: Morrissey would be a big favorite.
I grew up with 'best-of' cassettes. My first Smiths record was 'Hatful Of Hollow,' and I had hits albums by Elton John and The Cars.
The girl that introduced The Smiths' song 'Asleep' to me was an important musical influence that I met in college. From there it's been an ongoing journey of different bands at different times, introducing bands and songs to me.
Will Smith is young, he's cool and my kids have his CDs.
'Hatful of Hollow' and 'The Smiths' were lent to me, and they made me want to create music that might make another person feel like they made me feel - to have an effect on someone.
When I'm DJing for two hours, I might play two or three Smiths songs.
I've almost never played the 'Smiths' records, once they've gone out. I was always like that and probably always will be.
The Smiths are never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever going to reunite - ever.
