When I hear Johnny Marr play a Smiths song with one instrument being his guitar I can actually hear every other instrument including Morrissey's vocals on some other plane. Like you can hear the rest of the song as a ghost while his guitar resurrects the other parts just for a brief moment and then he stops and the rest of the ensemble is laid back to rest. Just fucking beautiful.
I love Johnny not just because of his music but because he's so humble and amazing at the same time he doesn't show off at all and he admits to making mistakes it's just great to have a musician like that
But why so greedy with his fellow Smith members. Very unfortunate, has lowered my view of him and the other $$ grubbing Smith. Great music, but the patina and brilliance negatively affected by their poor characters
That's what i was thinking....am i seeing a 16 year old play in a garage or an elderly man teaching his sons...whay a great observation ans how deep!!! Thanks
Answered every question in depth and succinctly. The perfect interview. The guy putting the questions was excellent too. A text book affair for guitar freaks.
Talented and Genius are words that dont even come close to describing this man. Every time he starts playing, my hair stands on end and I just do not want him to stop. Superb.
What a guy, an inspiration. People understandably say he is modest, but actually he just seems a really decent person who has time for everyone despite all the success and achievement.
And yet, he can mention "that pentatonic thing", rip out a run that Clapton or Page would be proud of - and then casually mention that he knew that wasn't right for the band he was in.
For those who are wondering: from a fan who ran into Johnny two days ago at the airport for his US tour, has confirmed that LPB will be a release sometime soon. If you've been following him the last 6 years or so at least, the new colors coincide with the new record.
His music is an extension of his soul and his way of expressing himself more than any other way like an artist painting a picture he does it through his guitar
Been a fan since the mid 80's, his songs and riffs stick with you for life. They become part of your soul, he's very melancholic due to being Irish Celt. But that works towards his creativity and inspiration, thank God. Very humble and very honestly true.
Gladiator0719 Spot on. He has said before that he tries to turn daydreams into sound. As a guitar player I love the melancholic, dreamy type music that he comes up with. It moves my soul. It reminds me of that state I sometimes get when I'm in bed, sleeping but on the verge of being awake, when things become very clear, almost as if you understand what's important in life before it gets swamped by the rush and humdrum of the day!
Some girls are bigger than others riff came about while Johnny was watching Clint Eastwood. So my favourite guitar player wrote my favourite piece of music whilst watching my favourite actor😀........Thanks for this.. the best interview I think I've seen with JM
never been a Smiths fan, but as a music and guitar nut Johnny is a modern elder-statesman of guitar. Read his book recently, such a great story and he must have been somehow blessed to do what he has done. an amazing life and long may he continue
Imagine being Johnny Marr and having this great party trick that's basically Playing this charming Man perfectly. Man i love how this guy is so nonchalent.
So refreshing to see a guitarist being a musician not a musical athlete playing a million notes a second that no one cares about. Creating actual brilliant music rather than showing off. Awesome dude.
I just discovered Marrs music a few days ago. It was after listening to a live version of getting away with it and it really wowed me. Everybody everywhere has called him a genius but I could never get past the Smiths phenomenon. I can't believe what I've been missing. His guitar sometimes sounds like really complex celtic music. Thats the thing of it for me. Celtic music. Irish folk music - plugged in. He has some sort of connection to it. He must

my jag tremolo bar broke and they replaced the assembly for free, just wanted to mention it cause I think it's one of the reasons Fender is still a great guitar brand, if not nowadays 'the brand', they take care of their customers and musicians. Johnny Marr, no words, he's the real deal!
Think I‘ve watched this outstanding video a hundred times now... I LOVE IT! Johnny is such a good and interesting guy, could listen all day to what he has to say...! And that lovely lake placid blue Jaguar 😳😊😍 Should get one....😎
Outstanding video listening to this great man and not just his music , all guitarists should watch this and listen to what he has to say, what a master, craftsman and gentlemen..
Fantastic interview! wow this guy is so inspirational and super humble. Man, also how great is this hair cut? Johnny Marr and Paul Weller: haircut legends.
Make it affordable enough and I will buy. Blue is my favorite color. I only buy guitars based on what they look like. I don't care what they sound like. lol j/k
I always wondered if Johnny Marr could play bluesy. At 14.44 he proves he most certainly can, very well. I admire his resistance to convention when so many other players settle for it.
played before smiths in 84 j. marr and the rest of band gentlemen, they helped us carry gear in,couldn't be nicer and they played...out of this world. first time i ever heard how soon is now...blew me away.
What a legend! Interesting, though, that in another video he says that he wrote 'Girl Afraid' on a red ES-355 right after he wrote 'Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now', not on a green Telecaster..
In an older video, he said he wrote Girl Afraid on the Gibson guitar Stein bought him in New York, the same guitar he wrote Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now on
Johnny Marr is an absolute guitar genius for bell like melodies, I love learning his stuff it opens up your playing it’s a must imo. I play blues it’s what I like but I do force myself to learn other styles as you can use it to boost your own playing.

yay ty
god's work
Thanks!
Thank you!
This Charming Man guitar part is one of the most beautiful guitar parts ever conceived, hands down.
plenty to pick from The Smiths catalog... that band, I swear, I'll never grow out of...
Definitely
along with God Save The Queen/No Future
are you honestly being serious? really?
Its the Some Girls riff for me.... Always has been. Not the biggest fan of the song actually, but the guitar melody is fucking beautiful
When I hear Johnny Marr play a Smiths song with one instrument being his guitar I can actually hear every other instrument including Morrissey's vocals on some other plane. Like you can hear the rest of the song as a ghost while his guitar resurrects the other parts just for a brief moment and then he stops and the rest of the ensemble is laid back to rest.
Just fucking beautiful.
great way to put it, so true
So was yoir comment....youre awesome
Really good point
Just perfectly Said
@@sergiootaegui que horas eu 5:-rpi
The melody for Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others is one of, if not, the best guitar riffs ever written
Nope we are the pigs wasp solo by Bernard Butler
I love Johnny not just because of his music but because he's so humble and amazing at the same time he doesn't show off at all and he admits to making mistakes it's just great to have a musician like that
But why so greedy with his fellow Smith members. Very unfortunate, has lowered my view of him and the other $$ grubbing Smith. Great music, but the patina and brilliance negatively affected by their poor characters
It's like he is 16 and 60 at the same time
That's what i was thinking....am i seeing a 16 year old play in a garage or an elderly man teaching his sons...whay a great observation ans how deep!!! Thanks
Perfectly right
Alejandro García-Puente Nah you're kidding. He can't be 60. In fact, he looks so much younger than Morrisey.
LOL!!!
You're close but the point is: He's immortal. That's a credible classical guitar piece right there.
Marr and Morrissey, one of the greatest collaborations in music.
a par with John and Yoko
sexobscura that’s insulting
@@alien9422 yh more like Lennon and McCartney which is obvs not a good equivalence but deffo not john and yoko
The greatest*
Greedy collaborators
17:12 - Sweet Jesus
NTV14 my word aswell !!!
Just brings tears to the eyes. The man has such beauty in his fingers.
Like to be reborn with Johnny's fingertips.
Answered every question in depth and succinctly. The perfect interview. The guy putting the questions was excellent too. A text book affair for guitar freaks.
When Johnny plays it goes straight into my soul. It has since 1984. He’s the musician of my lifetime.
Talented and Genius are words that dont even come close to describing this man. Every time he starts playing, my hair stands on end and I just do not want him to stop. Superb.
You can tell feelings were brought back when playing this charming man
Oh shit he answered my question! Nice! ❤
Laura, nice one!
It was a great question!
good question... I know what you meant on it... Marr is so friggin cool...
Rock on Laura! So rad. Good question and he elaborated on it for a while.
thanks guys! yeah I loved how he ended up rambling about it a bit
:-D
What a guy, an inspiration. People understandably say he is modest, but actually he just seems a really decent person who has time for everyone despite all the success and achievement.
Fender, release that lake placid blue Jag now please.
THEMOONWOLF it comes out later this year
"Able to play the sound of my feelings". Lovely way to put it.
Watching Johnny Marr play guitar is like watching Picasso paint. A non blues pentatonic genius!
And yet, he can mention "that pentatonic thing", rip out a run that Clapton or Page would be proud of - and then casually mention that he knew that wasn't right for the band he was in.
please no, not Picasso. Marr is a true genius, like Bouguereau
For those who are wondering: from a fan who ran into Johnny two days ago at the airport for his US tour, has confirmed that LPB will be a release sometime soon. If you've been following him the last 6 years or so at least, the new colors coincide with the new record.

Im sorry.
All serious musicians should watch this. Hi Hello is a fantastic melody. Simple and beautiful.
Imagine being Johnny Marr and having this great party trick that's basically Playing this charming Man perfectly. Man i love how this guy is so nonchalent.
So refreshing to see a guitarist being a musician not a musical athlete playing a million notes a second that no one cares about. Creating actual brilliant music rather than showing off. Awesome dude.
Johnny is a genius. There is no other word to describe this guy...
I've played guitar for a few decades and Johnny Marr has probably forgotten more awesome riffs than I'll ever know. Dude is nothing short of epic.
It's impressive how someone can create certain things so simple, yet, so magnificent.
I can watch Johnny play guitar all day.

Johnny seems like a real genuine, down to earth guy. He just kind of talks like a normal person, not some out of touch rock star. I really like him.
A master of artful guitar playing, songwriting, being cool and generally being a nice gent.
Great stuff. I could listen to him play all day. "Last Night I Dreamt" and "That Joke" are melancholy masterpieces.
hearing Johnny Marr do a fret stub and buzz should give us all hope.
I didn't know Johnny is such a great lead guitarist. Those Bluesy licks were great! He has great FEEL .
He is a Rory Gallagher fan
What a legend. Love his guitar tones.
I love his enthusiasm for the guitar, every time i watch him in an interview i instantly play my guitar and miss what he says haha.
my jag tremolo bar broke and they replaced the assembly for free, just wanted to mention it cause I think it's one of the reasons Fender is still a great guitar brand, if not nowadays 'the brand', they take care of their customers and musicians. Johnny Marr, no words, he's the real deal!
Johnny Marr is a great player. No wasted notes.
Genius. Love Mr. Marr. Wish his jag was available in a left handed version. Come on fender, sort it out! Mr. Marr, God on guitar. ❤x
I second this!! C’mon Fender!!!!
THIS. Come on Fender!
INDEED FENDER.....KURT COBAIN IS NOT THE ONLY JAG ENTHUSIAST!
THIS!!!!
Yes!
Marr playing a Fender Jaguar = Sublime.
Johnny Marr hands down one of my favorite geniuses🙏 one of the best to bless a guitar🤙
Johnny talking about why he likes the guitar and then going straight into Some Girls is pure magic
Living Breathing Rock N Roll Legend - the greatest guitarist of all time hands down ....
Every time his strap falls I get anxious
Righttt, I wanted him to just be like "oh forget it" and take it off lol
Hopefully he'll design a strap as amazing as his Jag to stay on.
oh thank god someone else was thinking it
I was also waiting for Johnny to take the strap off and say “sod this”
he's really uncomfortable out there and it irks me
Oh Johnny you magnificent musical Beautiful Genius. Thank you Johnny and fender.
Think I‘ve watched this outstanding video a hundred times now... I LOVE IT! Johnny is such a good and interesting guy, could listen all day to what he has to say...! And that lovely lake placid blue Jaguar 😳😊😍 Should get one....😎
he s gorgeous fun and so full of passion i love him
Outstanding video listening to this great man and not just his music , all guitarists should watch this and listen to what he has to say, what a master, craftsman and gentlemen..
I like how he is involved in his creativity....
17:11-17:38 actually made me have an outer body experience, best 27 seconds of my life
*out of body. Not "outer body" 🤣
That That joke isnt funny anymore riff is so dreamy and beautiful....I could listen to it all damn day.
Absolute perfection
That's crazy Laat night.. it's his favorite to play now it's always been my favorite song.. what a melody..
The ultimate indie guitar. Wish it was a custom, the indie community needs this!
Love his sound. Marr rules!!😎😎😎😎
Girl Afraid...my favorite Smith's song.
Thanks, well done, truly a living legend!
Great interviewer and great interview too, Johnny's always quite candid and welcome to discuss his methodology of creating music and excellent tunes.
Like daydreams in music. Thank you Johnny
Great to hear a guitarist with such insight.
What a player, his tone sounds so good here
This is pure gold
Fantastic interview! wow this guy is so inspirational and super humble. Man, also how great is this hair cut? Johnny Marr and Paul Weller: haircut legends.
Johnny Marr Jaguar in blue please Fender :)
Make it affordable enough and I will buy. Blue is my favorite color. I only buy guitars based on what they look like. I don't care what they sound like. lol j/k
just want that sherwood green to be rereleased
+Fender Please!!!! Please!!!! Please let us get what we want!
YES!!!!! That Sherwood!!!!
that already was released a few years ago.
Congratulations from Perú to Marr. My Guitar Hero
FENDER. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, RELEASE MORE JAGUARS. THIS ONE IS BEAUTIFUL. But maybe more reissues too? Much obliged!
Congrats from Brasil to Johnny!!!
This is quite interesting. Saw him a couple of days ago and his live show is just massively entertaining. Legend.
I love how he calls Morrissey a "little Dickins"
I always wondered if Johnny Marr could play bluesy. At 14.44 he proves he most certainly can, very well. I admire his resistance to convention when so many other players settle for it.
When he played This Charming Man, my head exploded...I don't know how I was able to type this
Youre hysterical t
played before smiths in 84 j. marr and the rest of band gentlemen, they helped us carry gear in,couldn't be nicer and they played...out of this world. first time i ever heard how soon is now...blew me away.
That’s awesome. What kind of band were you in?
Love this video. Hes a legend and inspires you to want to make different music.
Johnny is a sweet person and a great player
What an amazing musician!
Entwhistle and crew were like a band of fellows each doing a separate song simultaneously . . . and it worked!
What a legend! Interesting, though, that in another video he says that he wrote 'Girl Afraid' on a red ES-355 right after he wrote 'Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now', not on a green Telecaster..
What a brilliant eloquent man. always considered him just a musical genius.
To end with “That joke isn’t funny anymore” .... my favorite Smiths song, sheer brilliance. Glad it’s one of Johnny’s favorites too.
Me too, I never get tired of it
Master guitar architect!
In an older video, he said he wrote Girl Afraid on the Gibson guitar Stein bought him in New York, the same guitar he wrote Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now on
Mark Hunter he came up with the riff on the gibson 335 but actually created it on this
Fantastic musician. And a very classy Jag !
3:57-4:24 Legendary Smith riff!!
This Charming Man
So much fun listening to this. So entertaining and informative.
I have this guitar in Lake Placid Blue. I love the color, love the guitar. Wish I could play better but that's what Fender Play is for.
That little bit from some girls...... Is 1 off the prettiest pieces music I have heard, so simple but sublime.
Johnny Marr is an absolute guitar genius for bell like melodies, I love learning his stuff it opens up your playing it’s a must imo. I play blues it’s what I like but I do force myself to learn other styles as you can use it to boost your own playing.
I can’t say how many times I’ve watched this at this point. I get sucked in by the pic of that gorgeous lake placid blue Jag.
Watched this and I totally change my views towards you...Top chap.
I wanna put a peace of Velcro on his guitar strap, it keeps falling of every time he pulls it back up. too funny..
Marr is the man
some girls are bigger than others is hands down johnny mars most beautiful riff
THE Man! The Greatest!
Damn some girls riff is so beatiful !!!!!
best riff ever written
Not even a Smiths or MM fan, but this was awesome.
Whats wrong with you???
LEGEND
