That crowd was lame.I would have been doing back flips if I was there. Thought it was a good performance despite the lack of enthusiasm from the crowd.
The song is by the Smiths, it is played by the Smith's vocalist as well as a bunch of hired musicians, therefore it is a cover. The rights to this song belong to both Morrissey and Johnny Marr. Without one, this is a cover.
Had the honour of seeing the boys 4 times ,meeting Morriss twice..superblt intelligent and funny fellow...Now I can die..oh and Bowie twice in beautiful Toronto,Canada.
hehehe your comment made me laugh! they like totally do not like really suck, this is like the frontman of one of the most like infleuntual bands singing one of their greatest songs.
I love Morrissey & The Smiths and this is one of my fav. Smiths songs. But Morrissey really seems to be struggling with his vocals in this performance. Way below what i've come to expect of him performance-wise. I'm thinking he may have had a cold. He clenched his throat at one part and his facial expressions also seemed to suggest that he himself was unsatisfied with how the performance was going. Particularly at the beginning.
You only have to see his performance at Reading or V Festival in the UK to see how a crowd should react. He performed HSIN a lot at gigs in 2006, and considering The Smiths never played this live too often back in the day, then these gigs should be cherished
To everyone who's saying that the crowd look uninterested... It might be a cultural difference. I don't really know what Germans are like at concerts, but I'm Belgian and apparently Belgians take a long time to really warm up to a concert, although we might really like it. But once we get going, we're crazy :p! So maybe it's just one of the first songs and they're still warming up... If not, then they're stupid... Morrissey rocks :D! Sorry for the essay.
If I was there I'd have been punching people in the face...how the hell could they just stand there like zombies?! One of the seminal 80's tunes by a living legend and they act like 'who is this guy?'. Truely sad.
Timeless classic. This song will still resonate with people twenty years from now just as it did with me when I first heard it in 1985. Morrissey and Marr are arguably one of the best songwriting teams of all time. Great version.
Muy Buen Video me Gustaria saber de donde Obtuvistes Yo tengo Tambien del Rock Am Ring 2006 Y Tambien tengo en Buena Calidad Video del Concierto que Hizo en Monterrey
Based off the crowds reaction, they probably think that theyre at a Justin Bieber concert

Perhaps he should have put on a small square shaped moustache, that would have ignited their enthousiasm.
