smithereens great 2nd album!!
they started in the early 1980,s their first official full length album was called- especially for you, and was released in 1986. the smithereens were and are a great band. green thoughts which is their second was released in 1988. some people think the first album is the best,however i think they made alot of good records and green thoughts is one of the better ones. the smithereens have never been afraid to show their influences such as the beatles,the who,the kinks and others. in my opinion the great cuts on this one are;only a memory,house we used to live in,the world we know,especially for you,drown in my own tears,spellbound and green thoughts!if you like the smithereens get this cd!!i hope they remaster all the smithereens 80,s and 90,s records!!.


Classic!
Along with Especially For You, makes up the truly important work of this truly important band. Second Smithereens album.


Great band!
If this music came out in 1968, this band would have been a headline act. Video killed the Radio Star. However in the MTV world, if your not pretty, you don't play. I recommend these guys to everyone. .


Variedad
Bueno tener este album debido a su sonido peculiar, algunas de sus canciones hasta fueron programadas aca en la radio en Guanatos. . es + el Kala (Rostros Ocultos) se encargó de hacer un cover el cual fue un exito en español - con los Smithreens nunca lo fue - ("Tiempo de Cambiar" o "Something New"). Saludos de neta. Mork.


Please someone stop me thinking that Green Thoughts is GREAT
Green Thoughts is one of those albums that are so amazingly catchy and beautiful to the ears you have to listen to it on repeat ten-thousand times over. I found this cd through some random thrift shop pillaging and have been praising the heavens ever since.

The tracks on Green Thoughts focus around heartache but despite their emo-esque titles (i. e. Drown In My Own Tears, Deep Black, If The Sun Dosen't Shine) its amazingly accessible 1987 vibe puts across more than just the loneliness of a relationship gone sour. Green Thoughts is The Car's with soul and and Elvis Costello with power chords.

If you happen to be looking for an album with some beautiful melody and heartfelt lyrics, Green Thoughts is where it's at. It really is incredible.
