Inspired by Spinner's list of the 25 Best Opening Lyrics, I noticed they overlooked an obvious candidate, The Smiths!
Here's a modest sampler:
"OH HELLO/ I am the ghost of Troubled Joe"
"Sweetness, sweetness I was only joking"
"A dreaded sunny day/ So I meet you at the cemetery gates"
"I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour"
"From the ice-age to the dole-age"
"Belligerent ghouls/ run Manchester schools"
"Mine eyes have seen the glory of the sacred wunderkind"
"All men have secrets and here is mine"
"The rain falls hard on a humdrum town"
How many of those songs can you name?
