@sd lm I don't see anything arrogant in what I said. The only reason I mentioned that I'm from the US is that most Americans have shitty taste in music and don't appreciate good bands like The Smiths. I was just really happy to find this video by someone so young sharing their appreciation of a great band from so long ago. Certainly didn't mean to offend by complimenting this talented musician.
I decree today that life is simply taking and not giving England is mine, it owes me a living But ask me why and I'll spit in your eye Oh, ask me why and I'll spit in your eye But we cannot cling to the old dreams anymore No, we cannot cling to those dreams Does the body rule the mind or does the mind rule the body? I don't know Under the iron bridge we kissed And although I ended up with sore lips It just wasn't like the old days anymore No, it wasn't like those days Am I still ill? Ooh-ooh Oh, am I still ill? Ooh-ooh Does the body rule the mind or does the mind rule the body? I don't know Ask me why and I'll die Oh, ask me why and I'll die And if you must go to work tomorrow Well, if I were you I wouldn't bother For there are brighter sides to life And I should know because I've seen them But not very often Under the iron bridge we kissed And although I ended up with sore lips It just wasn't like the old days anymore No, it wasn't like those days Am I still ill? Oh, oh Oh, am I still ill? Oh, oh
I was originally searching for any acoustic covers of this song roughly a week ago, but I ended up finding your Charming Man cover, and started following you - and now you upload the very thing I was looking for!
This is an amazing cover! Honestly found you on here a year or so ago and your covers introduced me to The Smiths which has become my favorite band. Thanks man.
Dude this is one of me and my brothers favorite songs. He moved to my dads house and he’s moving to college soon so I haven’t gotten to see him as much as I’d want to lately, but I know he would love this cover
Another stunner! Thanks. It’s sadly the perfect song for today in NZ. Having eradicated Covid 19 for 102 days, in Auckland we’re back in lockdown. Our PM will inform us today about how long. Meanwhile, I’m really feeling for the UK’s economy having heard it’s really bad. I’m American and I just can’t help but feel some burden of responsibility for this. A taint. Oh America, you are such an embarrassing let down. And it’s gonna get so much worse I fear. Yeah, I’m “Still Ill” as well, but thankful my family is okay here and back home. I hope anybody reading this is okay too.
Hope everyone's okay too. Sorry to hear that you're back in lockdown. Hopefully it's just a precautionary measure and it's not all starting again. Stay safe my friend
Thanks Anthony! Yeah it definitely has. I had a look the other day as somebody commented on an old one and I was like "ooh...". Just goes to show - talent is nice but constant practice and confidence can take you further!
You just inspired me to do my own cover version. Great Singing btw. Discovered your channel and subscibed right away. For there are brighter channels on youtube and i should know because i've seen them but not very often...
I’m early, I was looking at your channel to watch the other Smiths covers to find this pleasant new upload! You’re so talented, I especially love the Smiths covers!
I've been watching some of your covers and they're really really good. I love them!! I think covering The Smiths is not that easy but you're doing an awesome job 🤩
I dont just want you to continue, but please keep playing whatever makes you happy! Seeing you play is such a bliss, I hope to someday play the acoustic like you
This is an absolutely beautiful cover. Your voice is amazing bro and you’re mint on the guitar. Keep up the good stuff. Maybe try covering William it was really nothing
Thanks Nathaniel! I REALLY REALLY want to. I need to figure out how to play and sing it together though 😂 it's probably my favourite Smiths song in terms of the instrumentation and melody
Mate! Loved that. Once your channel has achieved the inevitable global recognition it deserves, can you go back and do tutorials for these songs?? I love how you interpret them for an acoustic guitar.
Haha cheers Justin! I do pin the chords at the top of all the videos, but I know that's not always helpful. Maybe I'll have to do a DVD 😂 I'll try to do it one day but I just have so many plans of songs to do at the moment that I want to crack on!
Dude, this guy is crazy good, I’m blown away by his talent, no joke
I am a forty-five year old American whose favorite band is The Smiths. And this is my favorite song by them, which you did perfectly. Keep going!
I am a .... year old Australian whose favourite band is the Smiths. This is my favourite song by them. Great job.

Sus edades no lo hacen especial
I am a thirty-five year old Brazilian whose favorite band is The Smiths. And this is my favorite song by them, which you did perfectly. Keep going!
It just wasn't like the old days anymore
man...your voice is like...I can't believe someone has that voice
Ah man, that's so decent of you to say, thank you!
Always til today thought he sang:
under the iron bridge we kissed,
and although i ended up with *solace*
It just wasn't like those old days anymore
I have a good feeling when I hear it
Mate you are one hell of of singer
I'm from Brazil. Great! I love Smiths.
Todo doomer curte Smiths já percebeste?
Sir, you are a Diamond.
Thank you for being so pure. 🙏
The best cover the Smiths
Can't remember the last time I binged someone's covers like this hahaha
Great renditions! You have such a nice time feel/groove!
Great cover of the original
I decree today that life is simply taking and not giving
England is mine, it owes me a living
But ask me why and I'll spit in your eye
Oh, ask me why and I'll spit in your eye
But we cannot cling to the old dreams anymore
No, we cannot cling to those dreams
Does the body rule the mind or does the mind rule the body?
I don't know
Under the iron bridge we kissed
And although I ended up with sore lips
It just wasn't like the old days anymore
No, it wasn't like those days
Am I still ill?
Ooh-ooh
Oh, am I still ill?
Ooh-ooh
Does the body rule the mind or does the mind rule the body?
I don't know
Ask me why and I'll die
Oh, ask me why and I'll die
And if you must go to work tomorrow
Well, if I were you I wouldn't bother
For there are brighter sides to life
And I should know because I've seen them
But not very often
Under the iron bridge we kissed
And although I ended up with sore lips
It just wasn't like the old days anymore
No, it wasn't like those days
Am I still ill?
Oh, oh
Oh, am I still ill?
Oh, oh
Grandioso...
