Marr has some of the most wicked riffs and its impressive to see you handle them AND Moz' vox at the same time...BRAVO - regardless of the maj/minor debate going on here. Happy New Years airy1...Flo/52
A very noble attempt for several reasons - you play it on an acoustic, and sing it too. You are far braver than me! Good job tho, thumbs up from me, and also from my Mrs, who is possibly the biggest Smiths fan in the world. Ignore the armchair critics who probably can't play a note and carry on doing what you do :)
Seriously mate, this brilliant. It's extremely hard to play guitar parts like this instead of simple chord shapes, and sing at the same time, as I'm sure you know. You should be proud of this one. Well done.
@juttkeys I know its taken me 6 months to reply but there is no way this is the tempo on any Smiths version. Don't get me wrong you are AWESOME. Great job.
How about a cover of "Half a Person" or "Well i Wonder".
You'll have to put "Shoplifters..." and "How soon is now" (respectively) on display behind you lol
Don't humour the hating trolls. lukeryder hasn't got a clue!
This is, without doubt, the best cover on youtube. Your multitasking skills are 2nd to none. Extremely difficult to play and sing at the same time. I've favourited it.
Man I've been trying to do an acoustic version of this for a while now! It's not easy to play and sing at the same time. Great job! This is the song that made me get into The Smiths!
Great job....its definitely a great song to learn....you should be proud.

why did you play this on an acoustic and that joke isnt funny anymore on an electric rather than the other way round?

1st. it does sound great. (i didnt say that on my initial comment)

in the main riff, (in a, C, then D) ...when in D, you resonate the A string instead of the D string... this is wrong.
