I can't blame him he's a smart guy aspiring to the middle class. People often say they what i do for love but i dont buy that. People avoid shovelling poop because Its dirty, hard, unglamorous but pays nothing ultimately. Now If i had rare poop worth its weight in gold and could pay £1000 a week for poop shovelling id be fighting off all sort of applicants. Imaging £5000 a week you'd have professional musis begging. Any artist that claims theyd starve for their art is a liar.

    I've watched this video so many times, Johnny Marr is my hero I look up to him so much, and he's so cool. He always keeps up with the modern times with his music. I remember seeing him the first time at a Killers concert, at first, I thought "Who the hell is this guy? let's start the show already" but the moment he strummed the chords to "Getting Away with it" I fell in love, Then soon after he filled the venue with "How soon is now" my ears have never been the same, since then I got into T-rex, bowie, oasis, Led Zepplin, The Church, The police, Springsteen, Benard Summer's work. TFF, Keith Richards, the Pretenders and so many more just can't thank him enough

    "Accept Yourself" is such a cool tune. Has so much punch live. Morrissey's lyrics are perfect for it.

    Never lose that hunger, Johnny! You're one of a rare breed of artists who've always stayed true to themselves and forthrightly so, to their art. Keep on keeping on, brother! Much love from Switzerland!

    Kevin Shields of My Bloody Valentine and Johnny Marr are my two biggest inspirations. Complete opposite ends of the spectrum, one driven by distortion and unconventional playing, where the other is more focused on clean tones with a hair of modulation. Both are such humble, admirable, down to earth people that truly love what they do and inspired me to pick up an instrument and figure this stuff out.

    This era of music and how it formed with very little producer influence made this the best music in my opinion.

    Love the String Theory series. The cinematography for Johnny Marr's seems particularly good; that hall shot was great!

    Johnny Marr is the Arpeggio King.
    He is the "sound" behind the Smiths.
    Can anyone suggest guitarists
    who both play rhythm & lead? For research purposes. Many thanks.
