There Is A Light That Never Goes Out - The Smiths (cover)
I’m sure everyone here has seen the version I posted 3/4 years ago but the simple fact is that I’m a better singer and player than I was back then and I have better equipment to record with so I thought why not get a new one up :)
From Wikipedia:
“"There Is a Light That Never Goes Out" is a song by the English rock band the Smiths, written by guitarist Johnny Marr and lead vocalist Morrissey. Featured on the band's third studio album The Queen Is Dead (1986), it was not released as a single in the United Kingdom until 1992, five years after their split, to promote the compilation album ...Best II.
It peaked at No. 25 on the UK Singles Chart and No. 22 on the Irish Singles Chart. The song has received considerable critical acclaim; in 2014, NME listed it as the 12th-greatest song of all time. In 2021, it was ranked at No. 226 on Rolling Stone's "Top 500 Greatest Songs of All Time"”
Lyrics:
Take me out tonight
Where there's music and there's people
And they're young and alive
Driving in your car
I never, never want to go home
Because I haven't got one
Anymore
Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people
And I want to see life
Driving in your car
Oh, please don't drop me home
Because it's not my home, it's their home
And I'm welcome no more
And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine
Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
And in the darkened underpass
I thought, "Oh God, my chance has come at last"
But then a strange fear gripped me
And I just couldn't ask
Take me out tonight
Oh, take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
Driving in your car
I never, never want to go home
Because I haven't got one, la-di-dum
Oh, I haven't got one
Oh, oh
And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine
Oh, there is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out

Street Spirit (Fade Out) - Radiohead (cover)
zhlédnutí 33KPřed 7 měsíci
Possibly the most haunting song I’ve ever heard. Definitely one of Radiohead’s finest. I had a version of this up before but I’ve been meaning to replace it as I wasn’t happy with it. From Wikipedia: “"Street Spirit (Fade Out)" is a song by the English rock band Radiohead, released on their second studio album, The Bends (1995). It was released as a single on 22 January 1996 and reached number ...

The video was glitching on the previous version, not sure why! As mentioned previously - there’s a couple of versions of the lyrics and I’m singing the “The World Won’t Listen” version ones, incase anyone is confused 😊

I’m proud to say that I had the chance to work with 2 fantastic musician friends in recording this tribute to Burt Bacharach (RIP), who passed away in February (1928-2023). The level of talent and professionalism on display by Peter and Matt is quite amazing. I have to give the credit to them as my voice just sits on top of the incredible instrumental that they painstakingly produced piece by p...

While My Guitar Gently Weeps - The Beatles (cover)

I love this song so much. George Harrison was an incredible songwriter and the fact that he pulled out songs like this whilst living in the high pressured shadow of John Lennon and Paul McCartney for years is incredible. Ironically, when you look back at the Beatles discography, a good percentage of the most streamed/loved songs are Georges! From Wikipedia: “"While My Guitar Gently Weeps" is a ...

This is another song which evokes a lot of emotion in me. I recorded this the other day at the same time as Asleep and wasn’t sure which to put up after Andy’s passing. I thought I may as well make use of this so throwing this one up as well.

Working through this beast and have to say big props to you. Great job.
Wow! That was touching! Great voice, man!
Love this 🥰
You are in the state that I dream of mate. God bless you
Morrissey always saved the best for his B sides. Love this and not heard the original foe years. Matching Vini Reilly I suspect is quite a challenge!
Note to self. Thinking of the guitar on I know very well how I got my note wrong. Heard that outtake? Fabulous guitar with one duff note around which they collapsed with laughter.
Ok you are amazing. Love this. One of my favourite Smiths songs. Although I prefer the B side lyrics 🥸 😅
Amazing cover. Great folky tone to your voice (not listened to any of your other songs.... yet!) And the falsetto is just great.
This gent is talent .
Best cover I’ve heard of this song 👍👍👏👏🍄👽❤️
someone give this dude a record contract! awesome stuff!
Awesome voice bro. What was the tuning for this?
Stumbled on this...very nice!

beautiful brother, greetings from Philippines...
MIGHT be thom yorke
This is absolutely incredible brother!
simply amazing!!!! love it so much!
Proper 🫡!!
I just stumbled upon your video. I wish I could play this song like you did. Let me het this straight; I try to sing this song in my car driving to work so no one can hear me, I don't even know all the lyrics. I once bought a guitar thinking I could learn it on my own. If I had the talent you have, I'd flex it to my wife untill she got sick of it. Please keep playing and realize you have a real talent ❤
Dude, it's not 'cause you're bad now that you can't still get good, if you try and practice, training your throat as hard as you can, you can become realy good. I was really bad at singing, but i loved to sing, still do; but i tried hard, always singing harder and garder songs, until i get good, and now i am.
Wow, so close to Macca! Like a Paul demo. You're incredibly talented. God bless! Cheers from New York, Jim
Incredible performance, brother. So much like the original. Blew me away. Bravo! 👏
Lovely tune! Bravo 👏👏👏
Muito bom!!!!! Gosto muito do seu canal. Assistindo do Brasil.
Amazing cover as always! Would you be so kind to tell me the tuning / tab?
