I left the North
I travelled South
I found a tiny house
And I can't help the way I feel
Oh yes, you can kick me
And you can punch me
And you can break my face
But you won't change the way I feel
'Cause I love you
Oh ...
And is it really so strange ?
Oh, is it really so strange ?
Oh, is it really so, really so strange ?
I say NO, you say YES
(and you will change your mind)
I left the South
I travelled North
I got confused - I killed a horse
I can't help the way I feel
Oh yes, you can punch me
And you can butt me
And you can break my spine
But you won't change the way I feel
'Cause I love you
Oh ...
And is it really so strange ?
Oh, is it really so strange ?
Oh, is it really so, really so strange ?
I say NO, you say YES
(But you will change your mind)
I left the North again
I travelled South again
And I got confused - I killed a nun
I CAN'T HELP THE WAY I FEEL
I CAN'T HELP THE WAY I FEEL
I CAN'T HELP THE WAY I FEEL
(I lost my bag in Newport Pagnell)
Why is the last mile the hardest mile ?
My throat was dry, with the sun in my eyes
And I realised, I realised
I could never
I could never, never, never, go back home again
The lyrics IS IT REALLY SO STRANGE of THE SMITHS is also present in the album Louder than bombs (1987)
The Smiths sono stati una band indie rock britannica formatasi a Manchester nel 1982. Il gruppo era composto da Morrissey (voce), Johnny Marr (chitarra), Andy Rourke (basso) e Mike Joyce (batteria). Considerati uno dei gruppi più influenti della musica indipendente degli anni '80, The Smiths hanno combinato melodie orecchiabili con testi introspettivi e spesso melancolici di Morrissey, che affrontavano temi come l'alienazione, la solitudine e l'amore non corrisposto. La loro musica ha avuto un impatto significativo sulla scena musicale britannica e internazionale, influenzando generi come il post-punk, lo shoegaze e il britpop. Tra i brani più rappresentativi di The Smiths figurano "How Soon Is Now?", "There Is a Light That Never Goes Out" e "This Charming Man". L'album di debutto "The Smiths" (1984) è considerato un classico del genere indie rock, mentre "Meat Is Murder" (1985) ha affrontato temi politici e animalisti. Dopo una serie di successi, The Smiths si sono sciolti nel 1987 a causa di contrasti interni. Morrissey ha intrapreso una carriera solista di successo, mentre Johnny Marr è diventato un rinomato produttore e musicista collaborando con artisti come Modest Mouse e The Cribs.
