Matt Johnson was born in London's East End in 1961. He's been in bands since he was 11 years old. At age 17, fueled by a musical collection that included John Lennon, Syd Barrett, Tim Buckley, T-Rex and the great post-punk industrialists Cabaret Voltaire, Throbbing Gristle, The Residents and Thomas Leer, he formed The The by placing a "musicians wanted" ad in England's New Musical Express.

It may be a simple pop song to hear and sing along with, but it almost becomes a chant, or a mantra, if you let it. Most people avoid the subject of death, out of fear, but, in my opinion, love IS stronger than death and we would do well to focus on that and love like there is no tomorrow. Also, the imagery of seasonal change and rebirth is stunning, especially sung with passion as it is. Is my review over the top? That is because, in the year 2008, I've grown tired of so many pop songs focusing on being angry in the material world. I yearn for more like "Love is Stronger than Death." No one writes lyrics like | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Uncertain Smile performed by The The Matt Johnson. In one sentence he can describe a whole landscape - feelings included. This song comes from one of his best albums. In my opinion, he is one of the most underestimated singer / songwriters of the nineties. different views | Reviewer: anon ------ About the song This Is The Day performed by The The It is fascinating you are so quick to judge. As in life and art what the artist is saying is clear. Yet we should be free to see what we want. I agree that he is singing about his abuses. But what I see is someone trying to escape from the confines of the cocoon he has created. You may see gloom in and doom and yet, I see there is still a glimmer of hope. That you can press forward to a new and better tomorrow. your other reviews sucks ! | Reviewer: frederick smith sedi ------ About the song This Is The Day performed by The The this song is about telling its audience us, that all those nights of drinking and cocaine binging cannot be taken back , and that even though you may be making plenty money, no amount of money will pay or compensate in any way for those wasted days. It is his own life experecince of being rock musicison & loaded on drugs that has then led him into a life of solitude and all he has left are his photos of old friends and glory days photos,which so like there gone to him. but what he does have is this song hehas created from this sorrow for us and all the world to share and compare, with our own experiences ! How it fits into the m&m song is beyond me... come on people learn rock n roll try the transplants for some rawness I love the song and the M&Ms commercials | Reviewer: rainlily ------ About the song This Is The Day performed by The The Great song!

This is the Day - en eternal tune | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song This Is The Day performed by The The I heard the lyrics of this "THE THE" song on the radio this morning, and even though it made me late for my train, I had to sit in my parked car until the end. A simple and memorable melody, with a joyous brass accompaniment, and somewhat moving nostalgic lyrics that brought a small tear to my 45-year old eyes.
