Me again... I knew once I started posting here I'd never be able to stop...

I don't know "Charmed", but according to IMDb, this was an Aaron Spelling
production starring Shannen Doherty, Holly Marie Combs and Alyssa Milano as
three sisters who discover that they have supernatural powers - I assume
this is the "Charmed" to which you are referring?

I can't find any reference to The Smiths music in relation to "Charmed", all
I can find for The Smiths on soundtracks is "I Started Something I Couldn't
Finish" on the "Fever Pitch" soundtrack, "Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get
What I Want" used in both "Never Been Kissed" and "Pretty in Pink" and  "How
Soon Is Now" in both "Out of Bounds" and "The Wedding Singer". Original
Music for "Charmed" is by Tim Truman. Of course, if you're referring to a
completely different "Charmed", all that is irrelevant!

However, now you've got me wondering what Smiths song could be used as the
Harry Potter theme...

Cheers

Yaz :-)
