absolutely, was the first song off of No Code that i fell in love with (and No Code is my #1 all time record). more over... i was Smile! (in that 'what pj song are you?') so yea, i love it!
I absolutely love this song. It always makes me smile. I love Ed's harmonica!! I love watching Smile on the bonus features of the Touring Band 2000 DVD. Its so much fun seeing all the PJ guys having fun!
Smile is my favorite song right now. I listen to it from my Ipod while I jog in the park. I makes me smile and really enjoy my suroundings. The sky... The trees... Etc
Would love to hear it played live, but i think since it was written its been played all of 12 times if i recall. think the last time it was played was during 2003 tour of japan.
Eddie has been quoted on sayin they generally play it in encores when they are missing someone close to him or the band.
Somtimes i know, sometimes i rise,sometimes i fall,sometimes i dont,sometimes i cringe,somtimes i live sometimes i walk,sometimes i kneel,somtimes i speek of nothing at all,sometimes i reach to myself dear god
awesome song. really reminds me of neil and crazy horse
"I remember one night at Muzdalifa with nothing but the sky overhead, I lay awake amid sleeping Muslim brothers and I learned that pilgrims from every land — every colour, and class, and rank; high officials and the beggar alike — all snored in the same language"
I could never quite get it....I thought it was some sort of surfing reference. "Three crooked hard swells all around"....which makes as little sense as "Three crooked hearts, swirls all around" I suppose.
That is one song that always gets me!! I love it. Always thought it was "three crooked hearts all around" with Ed giving that long drag on the end of hearts, I guess I was only missing one word.
Definately in my top 5.
Later.
CARPE DIEM!!
