There is a Light That Never Goes Out - The Smiths Cover

[Purojannu]

the singing could be better if you'd use a capo on the fourth fret, like on the original.

[dadinstlouis]

nice guitar work!

[sabaqat]

guitar is nice, even morrissey probably couldn't sing like he did if he had to play guitar at the same time :)

[stevenorway]

thats very well done

[SsEh0394]

As has beeen constantly said before, the guitar sounds amazing- what i'd give to be able to play like that! And I don't think the vocals are too bad, it's quite a nice cover.

[ADRIANkillz]

whaaaaah!! hella pro on guitar!!

[cheesemacg]

Very nice!

[happycamel52]

really good

[lulz666f]

Cool. What are the chord shapes you use for your finger picking, by the way?

[Jahnli]

It repeats the following progression most of the song- Am G Am G F, C G And the transition to the chorus is Em, F GAnd the chorus is C Am, F Dm7 G, C Am F G, do that progression twice.

[sfumato1002]

The guitar playing is amazing...voice is not bad...some reverb or echo on the voice will be nice. Overall...Awsome!!!

[kekemankek]

Nothing wrong with your voice, you just can't sing (properly). Perfect guitar playing though, I don't know how you play like that and sing at the same time, it's very difficult.

[reelhausmuzik]

wow, how the hell can you sing and finger pick like that? I can't even play and sing nirvana songs at the same time, very talented!!!

[blandstudios]

pretty cool it has this surf-style quality worked into it i like it a lot

[JoeStrummer0119]

good cover. awesome guitar playing and the vocals are just fine, no worries there.

[yollam]

Don't sweat the comments about your voice! Your playing is so beautiful!!!

[Washingpowder]

very good effort . I'm sure morrisey and marr would agree

[hashiepashi]

and I do liek!

[shancarballo]

very nice :)

[eliinnos]

Your voice is good too!

[lordelan]

There's nothing wrong with that voice!!! Liked a lot!

5 stars mate! Don't stop singing please! ;)

[farrygisher]

good guitar but baaaaaaad voice

[Jahnli]

Definitely a trend in the comments, and I agree.

[Jahnli]

My Hero!

[Ange8]

Haha

That's funny to see that we have the same ideas of cover :D

(well, didn't upload this one, and a lot of others)

Nice ^^

[cathridge]

great guitar playing. Hard to sing and play that tune at the same time.  Bravo.

[1ucks1ut]

nice guitar but is not possible to out do or equal mozzes voice! nice.

[Pungetal]

really enjoyed it, nice guitar playing!

[drum1666]

Very good, a difficult tune to carry off due to its brilliance but that was great, well done

[johnPhilos]

Very convincing.

[lctrout]

Damn!! Your guitar playing is impressive.

[agent4477]

you should be proud of yourself bro!

[Turnbeutelvergesser]

wow awesome guitar picking!!

[sejdaren]

realy realy nice guitar playing...a nice version

[MyNameIsTherese]

Very good job, dude ! :)

[JetJockey87]

lol sounds like my voice...and I thought I sounded like a retard.

[pumpsay]

jajajaja very funny XDD!!

[lancsno1]

amazing guitar playing

[BMXplease11]

uh veryvery good

[thegorn]

That fucking rocked. Thanks man. Really really good.

[funnyman1022]

very nice dude

[flexorder]

need a little more desperation and melodrama in your voice.

[jadeointermitente]

Really good man... is like Billy Corgan voice.

[sissleys]

The guitar is amazing!!

[RINTHAL]

i'm horribly impressed.

[dedlee2]

your voice is so fucking sad, it gives me chills

[TraverzG]

Top Notch!

[jimmy272007]

superb guitar sound! very good!

[wungabunga]

Really nice finger picking but the chorus was a bit off in comparison (chord wise). Nice singing too. Really worthwhile.

[Siickshoes]

really enjoyable, lovely guitar work, miles better than alot of the clones on youtube!

[19ufo47]

Bro, The Smiths are one of my all time favorite bands, and this song is probably my favorite. VERY good job on it! Your guitar picking is excellent and your soft sad voice is very soothing and befitting of this song. Keep it up!

[mikeygunfire1]

Holy shit mann, this is good. I don`t normally like covers, but damn, this sounds good. I love that custom les paul too. Beautiful guitar.

[lothbury0]

Your so great!

[sunjulie]

I love your version!!!

[mi1964amigo]

I'm a long standing Morrissey/Smiths fan. I enjoyed your tribute very much. Those that are making derogatory remarks obviously are NOT musicians - a real musician would never criticise harshly, only give advice. Therefore those people can't even hold a guitar, never mind play and sing at the same time and in tune. Well done and keep it up.

[echo03281970]

awesome!!

[cjmooney9]

hahahaha

[jiminy1000]

Change of key. No capo at 4th fret. Weird. Covers on you tube baffle me. I'm viewing outta masochistic curiousity. .....and this is my favourite song.

"There is a light that Never Goes Out."

[Jahnli]

If it was identical, I'd be a poor imitation of Moz/Marr. As it is, it might still be poor, but it's me doing a tribute, I'm fine with that.

[jiminy1000]

Wasn't trying to be offensive, I think anyone tackling both the guitar AND vocal performance of this song, has courage. Sounds okay to me. My girlfriend and I used to listen to this in bed and it would reduce us to tears.

[stevothecarpetfitter]

let us hear you smart ass

[jiminy1000]

stevothecarpetfitter, go to google. Type in Smiths tribute southern hemisphere. Our former tribute band circa 2003 will appear, (Salford Lads Club.) There are first take audio versions of Bigmouth Strikes Again, Stop Me...,etc. Sorry, no live recordings. We covered 50 Smiths songs live at 17 seperate gigs. It was fun. The Smiths ARE a tricky band to cover, so respect to ANYONE who does a good job. I think the version here is fine. It has soul to it. I wanna hear 'Back To The Old House' please...

[euroguy71]

Verry nice, nicely underplayed, really brings out the essencee of this great song..Post more man...

[baldyman123]

i am liking your take on this song a lot. keep them smiths songs coming....ive done my own version of this if u get time to look...

love and peace

[MrsTambourine]

thanks;)

[MrsTambourine]

Is there any chance to get the tabs?

[Jahnli]

It repeats the following progression most of the song- Am G Am G F, C G And the transition to the chorus is Em, F GAnd the chorus is C Am, F Dm7 G, C Am F G, do that progression twice.

[domngel]

Hey, nice one dude. I suggest you look at the camera, engages us more in what you're doing and can get into it more. I assume you're reading the lyrics off your computor, fair play, i know most Smiths lyrics off by heart now but would still need lyrics myself as would be so nervous doing what you did there,so i understand, but how about printing them off and stickin them higher? Just a suggestion, tis your world :-)

[Jahnli]

You bring up a good point - I don't look at the camera, do I? Come to think of it I don't in any of my vids I just noticed. Guess I'm just the "keep yer head down" kind of player!

[greenbelter123]

Awesome Guitar mate. I'd probably get miked up and sing that way or get someone else to sing it for you. But take nothing away from the guitar is beautiful.

[loobleasle]

it took me a while to like your covers just based on the vocals but i really like this one and the boy with the thorn in his side. you're very talented. keep posting.

[nataloe]

you suck <3

[stale182]

wow. mad skills

[73beetl]

Nice one - beautiful guitar work - best of luck to you.

[NuRaveMaarten]

Screw the negative comments .. you gave it your own impression . and as said previously : your picking style is brilliant ! .. I really loved it .. The pleasure - the privilege was mine . Cheers and keep it up !

[malkster07]

[Jahnli]

Seeing a trend in the comments, heh. Thanks anyhow!

[viniciuskiko]

[egosheep]

[monkeyballs0001]

u sent shivers down my spine. i liked the voice, seemed exasperated which fits the song beatifully. 5/5

[strigol]

nice cover men!!! your guitar looks so clean

[Jahnli]

Thanks, the Paul is going straight into the Twin, no effects, for a pure tone.

[CThade]

5 for the guitar 4 for the voice... U can sing man, but u should not fear singing louder with more enthusiasm!;) very great guitar though really

[recycleee]

This is definitely amazing. Great cover, man. Best 'There is a Light' one on YouTube.

[rprieto1971]

Just want to thank you for all the smiths covers! It's great to 'try' to learn songs that i love!

[JohnnyBama]

That was awesome...can you send me the tabs...just learning the guitar...awesome version.

[Jahnli]

It repeats the following progression most of the song- Am G Am G F, C G And the transition to the chorus is Em, F GAnd the chorus is C Am, F Dm7 G, C Am F G, do that progression twice.

[frankgallagher]

that's shit, i dont understand all those compliments. pure shit

[GoVegi]

But thats cos ur a retarded dick head Frankgallagher, now go lick yourself

[razorio007]

Nice picking!

[jlarnaut]

Great!!, i hope you can play more smiths songs like Still ill or girl afraid... you're pretty good...

[lucasake]

I agree! Those two are amongst my favourites.

[gymnarch]

Nice job man. Keep it up with more Smiths.

[Jahnli]

Thanks all, I'm really more of an acoustic strummer, but this one called out for the 'Paul treatment.

[JiMiBoldAsLove]

Fantastic job. I'm impressed.

[onemorejoe]

yet to hear a cover like this. very good.
