  • good job ,different but still an epic tune,long live king Morrissey

  • i really liked this

  • very very good!

  • Totally rad.

  • this sucks

  • What film is that in the background?

  • This is so weird, but.. Great?

  • ill admit,,,i didnt have high expectations of this at first.......but WOW....fuckin blew me away!!!! this is a fuckin awesome video and killer performance...awesome guitar tone as well,,,FUCKIN RITE

  • This is amazingly good!

  • This is amazingly good.

  • Like it more each time I watch it......

  • Separately all the elements are questionable, the western movie, outfits, shoddy video, but together a-mazing. Never watch this video just once.

  • I like it!

  • soooooo clever...love it..

  • Welcome back crit. This video needs to be seen for whatever reason...

  • Amazing, what an incongruous pairing but works well. I thought ZZ Top had had a bath and become more thoughtful and sensitive?

  • I have watched this a few times and like it more each time, great guitarist obvious... but big ups for the drummer and bass.

  • quite odd but works really well actually :S great video

  • This is a beautiful cover. I really like that you took a fantastic song, made it your own, and really put your hearts into it. The western film clips were distracting to the real talent you have. Really great job! Probably the best cover of this song I have heard.

  • Most original and left field vision for a favorite of mine. This actually surprised the hell out of me... I dig it totally. Great job.

  • Disturbingly beautiful . . .

  • VERY very very nice wann be "mariachi" cover!

    great job dudes!

  • man oh man these guys are @#%*^% great!!! i've never heard such a soulful cover of a very private moment in everybody's life. written by THE MOZ!!

  • think its excellent.....lose the cowboy clips and be top rate

  • Great guitar Solo.

  • Man, these guys are brilliant x)

  • Good. But it would have been even better without the irrelevant poor quality cowboy/western films inserts which made it also difficult to hear the band. Regardless, thanks for sharing.

  • Very fine interpretation of this most resonant and powerful song,

    very nice guitar solo, we must appreciate how there are so few who would even dare to attempt this song let alone pull it off with considerable aplomb (sp?) searching for the right words

    bravo

    BRT

    and thank you

  • Great job! Very humorous.

  • Oh My God... this is Smiths like I never imagined! I like it...

  • dropped in to watch again

  • Awesome!

  • Huge Smith's fan. Great cover, nice guitar tones. Frontman looks like Willie Nelson with a fake mustache and the hair tucked up under the sombrero ;)

    no hope, no harm.. just another false alarm..

  • Viva los amigos! LOL

  • I never expected to like this,being a huge The Smiths fan,but I think it's brilliant.

  • Even though the band isn't so bad, the singer appears to live in different realities with the music.

  • objection your honour: this singer is not out of tune, he is using the mexican tuning system: quarter tones are quite acceptable. see: Diablo meantone tuning. A=440. A-minus=439.

  • theres no such thing as acceptable music, even dischords sound good if done well

  • thank you dear HorrisNorris. i agree with you surely. i was spoofing and was pretty high when i wrote this months ago. this singer is truly a quite accomplished musician. i think you would be pleasantly surprised to know who he is... hence his fearlessness of appearing like an asshole. too bad the recording was so Live. i was there and it was rapture. respectfully submitted with gratitude, koko

  • lol thats fucked up

  • I saw Morrissey last night at The Fillmore SF,

    He did not play this song, bummer, but it was a great show.

  • xD Love this cover

  • Muito loco!

  • lol, thats a cool cover, although singer goes a bit out of tune at certain parts

  • I like it.

  • Awesome - It sounds very dramatic. the guitar sounds great and the solo fits very well with the song.

    Well done.

    Another fake moustache ??? ;)

  • the guitar sounds great.

  • I think the sound is beautiful, and OK, the hats too.

  • Good going, nice stuff! If they didn't do their own version, why would they even have done it people!

  • Thanks for the kind words, I know the band, and while there is a comedic side to the cover, there is respect for the song and the Smith's.

  • give up the singing!! out of tune

  • Lose the costumes, the western clips, and the changed lyrics, and this would be much better.

  • Amazing cover, shame about all the cowboy clips on top of the music though

  • Thats a good cover.. you have a david gohan from depeche mode voice... I dig it.

  • Muy buen cover! muy buen solo de guitarra

  • Short story, 3 friends: guitarist lives in NY, bass sacramento, drums san jose. They show up for a new years party in san francisco, never rehearsed this song together, I edited it and this is the result. thanks for your comments.

  • I loooove the song. My favourite!

  • Bloody Rubbish

  • I agree. But they wouldve done better if they wouldntve changed the damn words.

  • Bueno!  Mui exotico! :)

  • AWESOME..... Who would have thought it.... Just another flase alram.. Last night I dreamt your gun in my side... Let's hope it was your gun...

  • cowboys AND the smiths?

    doesnt get much better. lol

  • where are the Smiths ? !!

  • I love that song.
