    I was looking for a cover of Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now and then I found a cover of Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now, and Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now.

    Johnny wrote this in 1984. Their record label manager took them out for dinner and they were getting stories out of him, including one where the manager bought someone a guitar. Johnny Marr asked their manager if he’d buy him a guitar and in a moment of weakness he said yes. Marr waited all day and thought he might miss his chance, but saw a red ES-355 in a window lit up in NYC and bought it. Took it back to the hotel and this is the first thing he came up with that very evening in the guitar. Whole video about it here on YT. Brilliant cover btw!

      They're pretty difficult. Juan Valdivia, guitarist of Heroes del Silencio, was influenced by Marr. You should check out some of their songs from their first 2 albums.

    That Carl Perkins-style pull-off riff thing Johnny does during the "in my life..." part always gets me. It's so simple and so genius. Simple things are often really hard to do right.

    I’m very new to The Smiths, and i am still trying to get into them, but i gotta say this is one of my favorite songs by them because Morrissey’s voice sounds amazing on it definitely when his voice gets high since he’s usually pretty deep, but none only that it just has a good beat, and tone it to, and it’s very catchy. But i am glad to have used my valuable time listening to this cover lovely cover dude the guitar tone you used for this song was amazing~, also you should definitely do Tears For Fears, The Cure, and Depeche Mode, sometime to.
