Smile

Weird song.

It is very strange to listen to.

How? It's a pretty good one in my opinion.

...isnt this that song that goes "when you're smilin' the whole world smiles with you!" if so.. it is quite the version...

I love this song. It's very witty and Jane's voice is fabulous.

I love how if you read the lyrics to the song you think it would be upbeat or happier but the melancholy tone they sing it in makes it ironic.

Brian Molko : Don't stare at your face with your nose out of place At the wrinkles where zits used to be And remember that smiling uses less muscles And frowning just makes you look ugly

Smiling makes you happy and you look ncie, even thought youve chnaged Brian Molko & Jane Birkin : So smile, smile And the whole world will smile with you So smile, Baby, smile If the whole world just had a clue

The whole world would smile, if it could and knew others will to

Jane Birkin : Don't mess with your man when he's selling you grams He would kill you for less and then smile And don't curse at a whore as you open the door Cos' your service wont be with a smile

• This is saying how dont insult your man, even if he is your drug dealer, as hed kill yuo for less. Then it turns to someone elses view, seeing the girl pissing her dealer off, and he thinks shes a whore.*

So smile, smile And the whole world smiles with you And smile, Baby, smile If the whole world just had a clue

Brian Molko : Don't sneer at your doctor or Gamble and proctor Cos' they're just pawns in the game Dont look at them badly, there jsut small pieaces in the big picture, no matter what they do

Jane Birkin : The perfect prescription is one that you're given It's filled out in Jesus' name Its saying turn to religion, thats the best cure Brian Molko : Don't be scared of your preacher cos' hes just a leech He's too busy cruising your ass Dont be scared of what a preach said about god and how he punishes evil people, as the preacher is thinking thoughts that he should, so hes as bad, a hypircrite

Jane Birkin : There's a verse in the Bible That says we're all liable For everything that comes to pass *In the bible, theres a part saying "do to other whats you want done to yourself"(not identilcal to that) So if your an arse, people will treat you like one.

Brian Molko & Jane Birkin : So smile, smile And the whole world smiles with you So smile, Baby, smile If the whole world just had a clue So smile, smile Smile, smile Smile, smile

its basicly saying how dont judge people on first impressions

It's not really upbeat at all (it has a good message but it's not really upbeat),

The song is really about being fake

Just smile, so everyone will smile with you, so act pleased and everyone will be pleased.

Brian Molko : Don't stare at your face with your nose out of place At the wrinkles where zits used to be And remember that smiling uses less muscles And frowning just makes you look ugly

I loooove the sound of his voice in that part! Very very sexy. Wow.

sounds so bittersweet, gorgeous- and if you see the photos on youtube videos, gorgeous indeed!
