Johnny Marr & David Cross - One - Bank of America Cover

[Colbystrns]

JOHNNY MARR FTW!!!! :D fuck Bono >:(

[douglassmcann]

Marr plays with Zimmer inception

[tautogg]

I liked him in Electronic best personally.

[opprime1]

lol

[jflash214]

can we put a stop to the johnny marr suckoff fest. he's a great guitarist but dear lord pump the brakes he's not immortal you emo douches

[natmanprime]

yes i agree

[bradforever]

one of the greatest guitarists ever, love him

[blamb1]

Johnny Marr can do whatever he wants with anything. He is far cooler than Bono. FACT

[eurospec19]

You, sire, a fucked in the head.

[Colbystrns]

@blamb1 that is the right on the dot! exactly what i was thinking when i first saw the video. :D

[amigodasophia]

I've heard Johnny was invited by Axl Rose to join Guns and Roses world tour 2009. Is it true?

[CHErevolucion1]

fuck no

[michaellohrweb]

Johnny would carry that tour...

[Pananarchist]

I'm not usually one to support the philosophy of Ayn Rand, but if that were the case, I would tell Johnny Marr to shrug and walk the fuck away. I don't think anyone could carry Axl Rose's bloated corpse through a whole tour.

[ravenmad22]

This was funny for the first two verses but once you get the joke it gets real old real fast.

[loungepunkisto]

oh who gives a toss?

marr is having fun with david cross... hardly a 'nobody' The man has given us great music. If he wants to play around with crappy U2 songs, then let it be.

[manconoo]

@loungepunkisto One a crappy U2 song!? don't think so. If you read ' The Severed Alliance' biography of Marr and Morrisey you will learn that U2's Boy album was a huge influence on Johnny Marr. U2 are awesome and I say that as A major Smiths fan having seen them play 11 times.

[walleyrange]

Im a huge Johnny Marr fan but i dont wear blinkers and think everything he does is godly. I dont want to hear Johnny playing U2 songs because he never would have done it as a member of The Smiths and if he's going to do it, do it with U2 and not this nobody

[RussianAssassin21]

David Cross is a great mind and a great comedian, and this video is a joke.

[walleyrange]

Why Johnny Why???

[TMMATT]

Johnny Marr is a great guitarist and David Cross is hilarious. Plus this is an awesome song. Great video!!

[grass1963]

please dont tell me thats johnny marr!!! god how low haS HE STOOPED!!!

[oldramon1]

if you are familiar with the original bank of america cover of u2 then you would realize this is a jab at bank of america, and that is awesome

[rightbrigade92]

Johnny Marr and David Cross...Jesus Christ...now we just need Peter Hook and Patton Oswalt

[paulbuss]

that would be great I LOVE ALT COMEDY ie Mr. Show and I love the Smiths

[robbo729]

Isaac Brock, Johnny Marr, and David Cross would be the best D:

[19ufo47]

Johnny Marr,

You ought to be playing with the Smiths!!!

[Wetto360]

Johnny marr, David cross and modest mouse.

Its a schmorgasboard of fucking awesome!

[SonicFungus]

LMAO.

"Johnny Marr. David Cross. Together. Get Morrisey and Bernard Sumner on stage and you'd have entertainment heaven."

AMEN to that! HAHHAHA!! That'd be one of hell of a crazy show. :D

[ashtraygirl420420]

could we add robert smith and eddie izzard to the mix? hehe

[Raedan23]

ha! that would be fantastic. we've already had bill bailey and billy bragg play togeather so why not?

[eat0the0earth]

Aaahahahahaha, brilliant.

[xeal1387]

It's cool seeing Marr cover a U2 song.

[ACRTGATB]

Johnny Marr. David Cross. Together. Get Morrisey and Bernard Sumner on stage and you'd have entertainment heaven.

[nikkeljoe]

the edge looks nervous playing this , the maRR pisses all over it cos he's a MANC and supports MAN CITY!

[MrDrakee]

You are my favourite person.

[poopsoupsayno]

The best ever.

[Emily2531]

What I think is hilarious about this is that the original U2 version sucked just as badly as the stupid Bank of America cover. The original music and lyrics are already commercial, sappy and boring. To hear the song turned into an advertisement for a credit card brings that point home even more.

[steampunk18]

thanks so much for your devalued opinion!

[falconer6439]

Hes making a joke....he is a comedian

[auaauaaua]

best Cover of a Cover ever.

[Vitaminb]

He is making fun of someone who did a cover of a U2 song for a company the person worked for which was Bank Of America. Everyone stop being critical of Davids singing and if he is funny or not. Its pretty obvious he wanted to do something slightly humorous and make a guest appearance to open up a show. He is a extremely smart and hilarious guy and to argue otherwise is crazy.

[Arcanaimperii]

David Cross is hilarious

Fucking Terrible!!

"When you can point out the absurdity of something by repeating it verbatim, that's a stronger statement than wacky parody lyrics. I'd say."

QFT.

[mantastik]

shirt...

[robertdholb]

this is a great commentary on u2 selling out. bono is doing good out there and is setting a great example making philanthropy fashionable. the selling out is forgivable fiftyfold.

[captaingoatboy]

actually this is a straight up cover of a cover -- a BOA employee sang this exactly at some company meeting

[chemicalswings]

I love David Cross but this is most intelligible & also not funny enough to be part of his canon of humour. David Cross is a Golden God. This Clip is Not. Not funny enough, but proves that he can carry at tune worth a damn... Still, should not appear when you search for the comedy genius David Cross.

[thebigjankowski]

dude this is a parody of something else

[davidjones0079]

what the fuck

[Shakermaker1995]

gayness

[unwrinkledear]

thank you morgancancer for being the only voice of commenting reason here. accuracy suddenly seems philosophical.

[chachaboots]

This video is a mock of the Bank of America version of "One"

[theavemaria]

No one seems to get it. How sad for them.

[tedshu]

wow.. must be low on ideas maybe...he really breaks the brain bank on this one!

[chiguy1551]

can't understand a f-cking word of it

[kfb76]

yep me 2

[forcefieldpictures]

david cross is great

johnny too

[talktal]

i don't get it, why was johnny marr there??? why is he not with morrissey???

[terin317]

isnt that the question we've all been asking for the past twenty years?

[CircleKageDweller]

they broke up :-(

morrissey still hasn't recovered

[CowboyDann]

johnny marr is now with modest mouse. this was before a modest mouse show

[LuluDBelle]

Dude, David Cross is the new singer for the Smiths!

[klamhammer]

Not vicious enough. It's practically an endorsement. They should've rewritten the lyrics and roasted them.

[morgancancer]

[marokokisetter]

gooo johnny marr

[rgelling]

it's better than that version by that Bono guy

[obsessong]

Great idea. That video called for a parody.

[electrojones]

Wow! Like lightning! Love this.

[newhotrod]

Hilarious there's a Capital One ad banner at the top of this page as I'm watching :D

[ShawnWolfe]

That's how fast it happens.

This rules.

[velcrotrainer]

perfection.

[MajinTrunkz]

When I heard about this, I was hoping someone got a video.  Thanks!

[ktmotz]

I didn't think I could love you any more David Cross...

[garbini]

ah jesus this is so funny

[TacoJack]

Friggin' awesome. Those Bank of America guys should be so 'proud.'

[dbl1]

Brilliant!
