The Smiths - Bigmouth Live Nottingham 21 Oct 86

[MelancholyApples]

The smithss !!!!!

[soulbrother08]

WOW,great viewing angle too,i was at this one ,yes security were a bunch of tossers there back in the day.still good gig if i remember,well they always were ..

[wisesatyr72]

Man that one guy in the red was getting a feel on Moz..Perv

[BeadsUnlimited]

Wow, can't believe I found this. The blonde girl, desperate to get her hands on Morrissey is me! I was 19. The security was really, really strict and they only let the 4 of us up for a 'stage invasion'. The girl looking really peed off in the front row was with us and really annoyed that she didn't get up there.

[SWF90]

why was i born in 1990?

[DavePerry2012]

Is Marr wearing a suit??

[rabbitisrich]

Is it just me or is there something weird about the crowd. I've never been to a gig where people at the front give each other room to dance! Were you there - can you explain?

[aleiperdiocontrol]

i wish i was born before 1991 to have been there! such an amazing perfomance from a charming man♥

[retrohippie]

Crazy to think that I was 4 days old when this was going on. ;]

[tenno]

I was 1 day old :O

i love this song

[00roastedlampost00]

I wonder who has that shirt now......

[EmmyNeander]

I love the way everyone screamed when he took his short off and threw it into the crowd. And the guys on stage are fucking lucky!

[lucido666]

puta mare que locazo hubiese querido estar ahi alucinante

[soulbrother08]

i was at this gig ,it was brill ached for days after,mozza is god, and johnny marr is a legend

[chachacha311]

lucky bastards on stage.

[RxWxTxF1992]

i know seriously what an opportunity

[fuckscum]

I wasn't around in the 80's, so when I see a big croud of people screaming at the sight of Morrieissy taking off his top........

[muaddib96]

I was 20 years old when I saw them live in Brixton. I was hammered, and had never heard of the Smiths, even though I had already been living in England for almost 2 years. I listened to this song on a walkman cassette on the tube, and liked it. I have to admit that between the alcohol and the hash, I don't remember much. What I do remember was a great sound, and that they really interacted with the crowd well. Bought a couple of Smiths albums afterward, and now I realize what I missed. Damn hash

[bozack7]

damn I was a teenager during this era and I did not see them live...WHAT A MISTAKE

[righteousanarchy]

gnarly

[tgroovin]

Thank you for sharing this amazing video. Long live the Smiths.

[LennonMorrissey]

The guy in the red is so thick in the head - he doesn't even show any emotion to the fact the he is on the stage with Morrissey! I would have given anything to be helped onto the stage by Morrissey! Infact, I would have went crazy!

[assassander]

wtf is wrong with the red guy???

i love the smiths ...

[bonnercourt]

This is why I loved The Smiths! What an incredible peformance. The singing, the playing, the crowd. It is what pop music can and should be! I'm happy Moz is still making music, but I'll always miss The Smiths.

[tallpaddy]

wow that was amazing- mozzer is in great form- l've been to few smiths gigs and this reminds me how lucky l was to witness one of the truly best bands to ever walk the planet..

[emmanuelakritikaki71]

you are so lucky, yes! I was unfortunately not born at the right decade and can only enjoy them on youtube! Amazing performance! it makes me love moz even more !

[tallpaddy]

Ah well you're blessed with good taste and youth! It's exciting when you see all those youthful people screaming their heads off- growing up can be painful at times- Morrissey connected all that angst through the music of the Smiths- his poetry struck a chord with many- he still sings today- I still follow...

[PowderedTowers]

watching with a smile on my face....the Smiths really were something very special....good to see such intimacy with the crowd too. Thanks for uploading.

[Coldacre]

awesome in every way imaginable.

[bedsitter1982]

Marr is the greatest player ever, no question. And how decent he is, he thanked the crowd at the end of this vid, just before jumping in the air. I like when Craig Gannon played the second guitar, so they sounded more powerful. What a GREAT GREAT gig.

[FunKDoc831]

This is going to sound off subject (I do love this song and the band)

But I wish I could see which pedals Marr used I love his sound

:(

[surfdo]

Thanks for posting this classic, bro...

To all the homophobic haters, DIE!!!!!!

[offkiltr]

When he still had chicks swarming the stage, not a bunch of flower throwing pansyboys.What's up w/that?

[fredblair88]

This is a really great vid, so much energy in the performance and the fans getting involved on stage is really cool. thanks for hte upload!

[vargasremy]

no me canso de volver a ver este concierto, el mejor de todos!!!!!

[morrissey1959]

i love the little dimple on the bottom of his back, i love it wen men keep those think its well cute , he still has them to this day . beautiful

[waluyoh7]

i was kinda bummbed because it was the backview but i ended up watching the whole thing anyways and now i realize that this has been the best version ive seen! those girls on stage probably had the best days of their lives..

[paul4003]

that was some of the best live footage i've seen of any band ever - big up for the poster

[GrlLeastLikelyTo]

What I wouldn't give to be one of those two girls who danced onstage. Love how it's the guys who are all about trying to hug Moz. hehe

[elmlodgerecords]

this is great footage. To think they split a year later, looking at this it doesnt make sense. At their peak they were!! Mind you marr's suits were a but dodge, maybe that was the reason. Fantastic stuff, really captures, The Smiths and Crowd reaction.

[josesotedeperu]

putasumadre...asi deberian ser todos los conciertos carajo !!!

[Toddy8t3]

Thats class man

[tenno]

i was 1 day old then...

my fav smiths song ever!

<3333

[kicksex]

wow what a great performance, were you in the back balcony or something?

great view..

too bad i was 5 years old then..hehe

[ellycat]

Absolutely amazing!!!

[Renzonator]

white gay guys cannot dance!

[shiveringtree]

hahahaaaa you're soo right.

[Stevebanany]

Thats why he's so cool :D

[cesarmozzz]

why can i say ...morrissey i love him he is GODDDDD

[verbusen]

This started out kind of slow but just BLEW ME AWAY from the middle to the end! Has to be one of my favorite concert clips I've seen yet! AWESOME!!!!!!

[blobboflava]

Did they break up in 86? I wish I could have seen them live, I saw Morrisey live though

[Gasurn]

87 around the time of the release of Strangeways Here We Come. That is why there are no live performances of songs from that album

[zerohearts]

amazing just bloody amazing.

[gooberparr]

Nice video, you have a great channell. Morrissey is amazing! Seen him nottingham, off to see him in Camden in early 2008! My girlfriend will love me when I show here this video. Where was it shot? Rock City?

[475734567]

[bungie091]

WHAT A LEGEND!

[MartinGianola]

one of my favorite songs of all time. greetings from argentina

[Mylittlephoney]

This footage gave me shivers. Don't know why but this is some of the best Footage of the Smiths I've ever seen. Thanks!

[aeneas7652]

There's something almost religious about this footage, but it's really playful and fun at the same time.

[rich31408]

...if only I had a time machine...

fantastic

[littlebayrox]

same here. i am stupid for missing The Smiths. Late to the party, it hurts. :'' ~ [

[slimjimuk10]

Loved this. Cheers.

[deadberties]

I was there that night, it was amazing. I had kissed Morrissey that very day outside his hotel.....

[barril]

I HATE YOU

hahahaha

no i don't.

[moosey62]

That was just amazing. Thank you so much for the upload!

xx

[rherrick123]

does anybody know what venue this was? It doesn't look much like Rock City.

[boyleastlikelyto]

Royal Concert Hall

[bollockowithalob]

Great upload - thanks - sounds like a top gig.

More, please.

[phil63333]

what an amazing song and concert. How many times to you bands invite people on stage. (without violence). Marr was in rare form. Those who attended that concert are fortunate. we will never see the likes of a band close to the smiths perform like that again.

[Matbro]

dont know why buy marr reminds me of mj fox in back to the future lol

[marrzipan]

Haha, I totally agree with you. It must be the suit.

[LottieMorrisseyFan]

Another fave of mine incl. the obligatory Moz shirt swing !

Sooooo jealous of the crowd memebers on the stage - how lucky were they.

How I wish there were concerts in Notts like this now.

[loversbend]

I want to jump on stage and dance with them too! :)

[mauvecrayon]

Dont ever knock the 80's when you hear a backing band like that and the kids on the stage with no trouble enjoying the music.

[allenmark]

I'm from Nottm, I cant believe I missed this show :(

[insanedb]

Morrisey strikes again

[TierraOz]

lol funny jump of Johnny in the end :D

[hackum1]

someting that can never happen in this day and age. boy you gotta miss the 80s.

[imhereformoz]

This is SO. AMAZING. I love them so much it hurts. Thanks for this!!

[Stillillgal]

GOD

[MissBunbury]

This is amazing, thankyou so much for uploading.

[Plancton2006]

HOT! where did you get this? got any more material from that show??? I WANT THE WHOLE THING!!!!!!

[vivaissy]

arrrrrrrrrrr delish

[amyjohnson11]

hehe, excellent!! Love how he pulls fans on stage :-)

[withsprinkles]
