The Smiths -Miserable Lie - Live

[pythonbyte]

1:45 Marr cool moment No.254.

[4thfloorlabs]

The audience must be in shock.....or just waiting to hear the hits!...but still this is in my opinion their best song....

[love4gwen202]

@4thfloorlabs best song absolutely

[WarGoatForestWolf666]

Johnny B. Damned, Andy Rourke carries this song.

[freakdog3000]

What an amazing band and an amazing song...that crowd is completely listless, ignoring the genius blasting all around them.

[UnderTheAffluence]

Morrissey hits those high notes effortlessly.

[johnnyd713]

lol pogo-ing.. my guess is that the crowd didnt really know how to act just yet as this show was from 83' and they were such a new band maybe the crowd didnt know the lyrics just yet. just a guess. either that or no alcohol being served?  lol

[artysmokes]

It's amazing how the crowd stands still even during the double-tempo part. I bet they tell their grandkids that that were pogo-ing down the front.

[sniperkitty72]

thank you very much for posting these clips for those of us who desperately wish we could have been there... long live the smiths

[NinetiesYouth]

How the fuck is Johnny Marr playing that?

[boppinkid1991]

@NinetiesYouth its only the first 3 strings in the intro n then he gets crazy lol.. i can play the intro its not that hard

[NinetiesYouth]

@boppinkid1991 Yeah, I can play the intro too but the fast blues-rock is impossible to transcribe.

[lekonoleken]

Fuck Ya

[skateparkslayer]

He's got the most distinctive voice like holy shit

[karziflora]

LOVE U ROURKEY!!!!

[damienmetalwind]

Man, remember, when Mozzer ruins his voice at 4:35 , he did that to entertain you.

[Morrisseyisdead]

No, he does his music for himself, he doesn't try to please anyone including his fans. If you knew fuck all about Morrissey you would know that.

[Tasuja]

Why minus six?

[Morrisseyisdead]

Because all these so called Morrissey fans who thumbed my comment down would rather think of Moz as a performing seal than a true artist.

[joga2323]

Thanks for posting. I never got to see them live. This makes up for it just a little bit. LOVE IT!!!

[karziflora]

damn u Rourke, what a bass player, to die 4. JM's guitar & Andy's bass r perfectly tuned, like hand in glove.

Love u AR....

[smithsfan92]

morrissey is god!!! :)

[pittleduck]

GOODBYE!

[lidow123]

haha aw morrissey looks terribly shy in this video

[RGenu]

OH! THE OLD HAÇIENDA!

[nicolaslabat]

everybody should look at it twice...

[jiedde]

Wow, what an awesome performance!

[mamamcqueen]

OH MY GOD!!! Look at this young beautiful Morrissey. He's beautiful now...but wow, what a knock out!!!!

[KarenBerninger]

i love you steven! :_

[Watertraveller]

He's just a country mile behind the whole world, so he says.....!

[MOD725]

In my top 5 smiths songs , along with reel around the fountain,sweet and tender hooligan, there is a light....and that joke isn't funny anymore

[Michael5678]

This song always drags on a little too long, to the point where the falsetto is just hugely overdone. I wish it was shorter :(

[loverpool7]

why don't you just stop listening to it sooner,problem solved.

[Michael5678]

now why didnt i think of that? or i could just delete it and pretend it doesnt exist.

[loverpool7]

i think you've hit the nail on the head there, a much better idea than mine.

[loverpool7]

But then you'd have nothing to moan about

[morrissey1959]

sado, i love it

[Sugarade]

Oh how I love this song. My exboyfriend left me, and 2days after I saw him with another girl...

I love the Way Morrissey writes, he just expresses everything i'm feeling anytime with any of the smiths/his songs

[aliensatemybrain]

fucking great tune!

[xMadelienex]

I love the way he says "goodbye!" at the end.Pure class

[lascivit]

perfection!

[walleyrange]

I need advice, I need advice

[ALFWEDARF]

Fuck Yes ! This is a good'un definately.

[patsfanatic]

My Favorite.........Thanks a million!!

[littlevolcano]

I love this so much. THanks a million for posting it!!

[3xXBrodyXx3]

I dunno if he lived there with Johnny & Angie, but I know he lived there briefly before he was in The Smiths, then he moved back to his mum's house.

He once described it as "bedsit land", full of failed poets and wannabe writers, living an incredably depressing lifestyle on the dole.... It's sounds marvellous to me!

[RaquelSF]

I believe he lived there with Johnny Marr and his wife Angie.

[PDP10]

Listen to the Moz. After all who would want to live in Whalley Range?

[sianhill89]

whalley range is a high school lol

[PDP10]

Whalley range is a small district of manchester about two miles from the centre of town. It was a dump up until the early 90's when extensive renovation took place. Hence "what do we get for our trouble and pain..."

[sianhill89]

its also a school
