Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before was released in 1987 and features on the group's 1987 album Strangeways, Here We Come.
Lyrics
Stop me, oh, stop me
Stop me if you think that you've heard this one before
Stop me, oh, stop me
Stop me if you think that you've heard this one before
Nothing's changed
I still love you, oh, I still love you
Only slightly, only slightly less than I used to, my love
I was delayed, I was way-laid
An emergency stop
I smelt the last ten seconds of life
I crashed down on the crossbar
And the pain was enough to make a shy, bald, Buddhist reflect
And plan a mass murder
Who said I'd lied to her?
Oh, who said I'd lied because I never? I never
Who said I'd lied because I never?
I was detained, I was restrained
And broke my spleen and broke my knee
And then he really laced into me
Friday night in-out patients
Who said I'd lied to her?
Oh, who said I'd lied? Because I never, I never
Who said I'd lied? Because I never
And so I drank one
It became four
And when I fell on the floor
I drank more
Stop me, oh, stop me
Stop me if you think that you've heard this one before
Stop me, oh, stop me
Stop me if you think that you've heard this one before
Nothing's changed
I still love you, oh, I still love you
Only slightly, only slightly less than I used to, my love

RIP Andy Rourke. Your bass makes this song bounce with life and shine with light that will never go out.
Andy made every smiths song bounce with life, and his light will never go out.
Amen
I'm a bass player and what he's doing is pretty intense. He basically learned the vocal melody and decided to bounce around inside of it, while at the same holding down the groove with the drums, but his harmonic choices are top shelf. Also, anyone who calls Joyce a simple drummer is an idiot.
Sad news, he was very relevant along with Mike Joyce, great rhythmic base.
Andy Rourke se fue de gira Músical a otra dimensión convertido en energía.
Johnny Marr is a musical genius.
His guitar comes in and out in a subtle way and it suddenly hits you with melodic mastery.
at 3mins his genius aligns with those final rifts..
Marr was the man!!
He was why I first got into the Smiths and why I’m still a massive fan now. His guitar playing is genius.
Can Johnny Marr ride his bike around town with a dozen lookalikes? I didn't think so
@@ltfringr I don’t think he ever tried. I bet he could though………
That bass line is the stuff of dreams.
Like 'This Charming Man'. When I first heard that I was all, 'Wait, what?'
That, my friend, is the melodic playing of the amazing Andy Rourke.
Marr really knew how to write them
@@kaydgaming Im sure Andy Rourke wrote it
Andy Rourke is one of music's most underrated bassists. I happen to think he's a genius.
imagine walking down the street and morrisey comes zooming along on a bike with 50 morrisey look-alikes in tow and they're all just zooming about
I think I’d pass out
I can think of worse things
I'd think what has some cunt put in me roll up...basterds
Think I'd be frightened, only slightly less..
In laugh ing so hard
my father was so in love with the smiths he named his first born son after the lead singer, yep I have a brother named Morrissey
(Its 2020 and I just saw how big this comment got! Also all the replies! Wow)
pretty sweeeeeet that like
That's actually a good name.
now that's just straight out awesome
+Super_Sid and you're named after sid vicious, right?
+Super_Sid is he by any chance a "charming man"?
"And the pain was enough to make a shy bald Buddhist reflect and plan a mass murder." Only Morrissey could fit those lyrics seamlessly into a song and make them work so well. Absolutely beautiful. That line of lyric not only communicates vividly what Morrissey was communicating, it also is in and of itself a vignette of a compelling story.
Didn't they have to do a radio edit after The Hungerford massacre?
@@bobbird4106 It was going to be the third single from Strangeways hence the video but Hungerford massacre stopped that - (The Severed Alliance - Johnny Rogan)
And it's very funny.
Not the massacre, of course, the lyrics. Yikes.
One of my favourite lyrics of any pop song right there.
The fact we are still talking about this proves how important the smiths are.
The Smiths are biblical, Morrissey was heaven sent
I see girls dressed like this now in 2022 crazy
correct
When it comes to songs,
Nothing's changed, still love this song
Only slightly, only slightly less than I used to.
you do know that there’s gonna be what they call a polar shift in the suns magnetic poles…where the sun literally flips 180 degrees on its axis…well according to top physicists when this event happens,apparently the world calendar will be set at 1st jan 1980 and the world will act accordingly!!! can’t fuckin wait 😊
Morrissey states in his autobiography that he didn’t like this video but I think it is very well done and iconic.
The more I think about it, Morrissey must know this video is outstanding and just being a contrarian. He said he liked the suedehead video much more, but that is nowhere near as good, much as I like Jim Dean.
He also states he at first he didn’t like “there is a light that never goes out” and I think we can all agree that song is a masterpiece
It’s a masterpiece!
Fuck Morrissey,Johnny Marr wrote this amazing song,Morrissey just made up a few lyrics to go along with it.
He is a gem. 💓
The world's least threatening biker gang!
+RovingRoy LMAO!
physically yes, mentally no.
+Nic F But he's a big pussy.
Haha 😂
yesss they'd go around just emotionally tearing people down. their victims thing they're alright until they go home that night and try to go to sleep only to find themselves huddled under the covers crying
RIP Andy Rourke!!! 😢 He will be missed
Andy Rourke se fue de gira Músical a otra dimensión convertido en energía, Respeto al Artista y su Música.
I love this slightly more than I used to!
Now, THAT is the comment
😅
Bravo, girl!
Nooooo! Ok, 🙌
Their sound, lyrics, humour, vibe and sentiment - all completely original and irreplaceable.
Morrissey switches the speaker from verse to verse like chapters in a Faulkner book w/ different narrators.
Those glasses aren't 'hipster' they are 'national health' glasses...like standard issue prescription from the socialized healthcare system in the UK
Thank you!
I never knew that, thank you for adding context.
This comment needs more thumbs, informative!
Hipsterism could be defined as a lifestyle that is rooted in taking something generic and uncool, and associating yourself with it (so the glasses are defo hipster glasses).
Problem is that then other people copy, making the NHS glasses "trendy" and "fashionable", to the complete bewilderment of the hipster. The hipster is then thrust into a sea of anguish because his "uncool" accessory (that made him cool) is now considered "cool" to the mainstream. And that is not cool. Not cool at all.
***** in this video? The glasses are stock glasses from their local healthcare service at the time, thats why they are all wearing them.
i love this music and i'm only 8 months old, infact i am writing this straight from my mother's womb. Today's music is garbage.

I wear my Smiths T shirt around town in CA. To this day, I get more comments than any other shirt. I don't think it's possible to forget this band.
Keep rocking the T Shirt,you're a Legend!!
I have a 7 days supply of Smith shirts, I wear them everyday. Shop lifters unite is the shirt I get most comments on.... I enjoy The Smiths lifestyle

Where is CA?
@@jfluffydog2110 CA is where Justin Bieber resides.
Seriously, has anyone ever heard anything like this ever? This music is genius!
words to live by !
I've heard it for nearly 37 years, and I still can't get over how good it is, but then, it's a straight shot to my youth, so of course it's POWERFUL. I just learned the lyrics today also, but I'm not learning them in depth, because they're not important. I know the ones that are obvious. Morrisey's use of rhyme and onomatopeia is one of his major geniuses.
The first time I heard this my brain did a triple axle.
Apparently, they have very bad eyesight in Manchester.
I love the Smith's totally and I'm black there's brilliance for you!!!!!!
It’s Salford

Not sure there are too many better Moz lyrics than: "The pain was enough to make a shy, bald buddhist reflect and plan a mass-murder."

'i think about life and i think about death..and neither one particularly appeals to me'
+Henning Diesel more like both
Isn't it the other way around, though?
Henning Diesel you dont get it do you
Only in the wonderful 80's could you be an adult with a Pompadour, old man glasses, ride a bike with a basket & still look cool!!!!
Pompadours were fashionable in the 2010s
Or … if you’re cool like the smiths you could that in any decade 😍
I live in Portland, that's literally a description of most of the hipsters.
Johnny was such a rocker, and Morrissey the King of Mope. It was a match made in heaven, and they both knew it from the start.
"King of Mope" = love that!
@@pigknickers2975 pope of mope :)
@@jizanthapus3099 Like that too!
Rourke and Joyce a great rhythm section.
The Smiths were one of those bands, one of the ONLY bands, that NEVER became a parody of themselves or even slightly banal. Oh, how I do cherish their music.
They broke up before that could happen
Probably could have picked a better video to make this comment.
Um... This whole video is parodying Morrissey. So, uh... You might want to rethink your opinion. It's been 5 years, so maybe you have.
Apart from the bikes and awful dress sense!
Golden Lights is not just slightly banal, it's bloody awful. The rest of their discography is solid gold though.
I knew about the smiths when I was young but didn’t get ‘it’.
I’m 42 now and have completely fallen in love with the music....Morrisey’s words touch me in a way no others have...there a beautiful, poetic longing to be loved sung with to a backdrop of rain, sadness and loneliness - I just love them now...I get it.
I'm a wee bit younger than you and am trying to understand. One day
Loved them as a teen and still live them at 44. Timeless
I was 14 when they first hit the scene in 1983. I was immediately hooked and saw them live in 1984.
I got them immediately and they have been my favourite band since the day I first heard them 40 years ago.
@craiglewis6145 please read morriseys biography, thank me later...
@@TheBoneo I read it when it first came out, but thanks anyway. I've also read Johnny Marr's which I preferred because I could relate to it more.
[Chorus]
Stop me, oh, stop me
Stop me if you think that you've heard this one before
Stop me, oh, stop me
Stop me if you think that you've heard this one before
Nothing's changed
I still love you, oh, I still love you
...Only
Slightly, only slightly less
Than I used to, my love
[Verse 1]
I was delayed, I was way-laid
An emergency stop
I smelt the last ten seconds of life
I crashed down on the crossbar
And the pain was enough to make
A shy, bald, Buddhist reflect
And plan a mass murder
Who said I'd lied to her?
Oh, who said I'd lied because I never? I never!
Who said I'd lied because I never?
[Verse 2]
I was detained, I was restrained
And broke my spleen
And broke my knee
(and then he really laced into me)
Friday night in Out-patients
Who said I'd lied to her?
Oh, who said I'd lied? - Because I never, I never
Who said I'd lied? - Because I never
Oh, so I drank one
It became four
And when I fell on the floor...
... I drank more

Bravo
I wonder if he is saying “I was delayed, I was wailing”
@@Henderson182
The lyrics are correct, and taking into account the meaning of the song, it relates an infidelity that goes even further with that nonsense xd
No one likes a know it all
Morrissey’s vocal melody on the verses is like crack. I don’t know why it’s so addictive. I think his lack of being overly “schooled” in music allowed him to create such a unique melody, no one else would think to choose those specific notes and sing them that way. And his rhythms and even his use of space are all perfect. Flowing and organic but also wistful, playful, self-aware, intelligent. Coupled with one of the best 80s bass lines out there and Marr in peak form on the guitar: this to me is arguably the most catchiest song in their catalogue and should have been a huge hit. I believe it didn’t get played on radio because of the mass murder line, which Morrissey refused to change (lol)
It was banned in the UK. There had actually been a mass shooting in the UK ( unusual for UK) prior to this song being released. I don't think it was banned in other countries but I'm not sure.
My favourite part is 0:00 to 3:32
I liked the sensitive young lad who bicycled.
Mine is just 03:32 !
My favourite bit is Morrissey's big cheesy grin around 1:05
My is 2:52 after the little girl turn her head and it shows Moz with his perfectly coiffed pompadour dry hair in the residential yard area
Look round poshchester these days all change make way for the yuppies of the first half off the new century 😛 in the year 2525 Rickdardo?
"my name's Moz and this is my biker gang, stay off our turf before we mousse your hair"
Morrisey and Johnny Marr could not have been more different as people yet mashed together so beautifully musically
The Smiths jean jacket. Classic 80s awesome style
The Smiths transcend time. I thought they were amazingly talented when I was in my 20's and their music holds up today.
One of the most underrated guitarist... Johnny Marr.
He is one of the greatest, along with Andy Summers. Easy to play the guitar, but to play like these two, art!
He is in the rock and roll Hall of fame. Thats not underrated
Say It Again...
You Weren’t Heard.
The most underrated band too
I wouldn't say he was underrated
I've loved the Smith's since secondary school, being black coming from Manchester and being part of the football 80s with CITY this was our narrative.
The smiths, The Jam, and New order what can I say. 😄🙏🏾👍🏾
You're very welcome.
Only us blues get it ..c.mon citeh
good taste
Doesn't come more British than that. Love from Italy.
This didn’t age well
@@arnk7060 😂 I was wondering whether the comments would have been different, if the Italian bit wasn't there!
That's Entertainment by The Jam slightly more British

Morrissey is justly praised, but don't miss Johnny Marr's HUGE contribution..
I actually think it's the opposite Morrissey doesn't get enough Praise for his incredible singing but Marr is absolutely incredible and deserves all the praise he gets but Morrissey is underrated
Or Rourke's bass.
Always and forever, thank you to Great Britain and the British people whose creativity, since the 1960s, has given the rest of the World hundreds of unique artists such as the Smiths and music of unparalleled beauty, quirkiness and atmosphere. What would our lives have been without British bands? Thank you from Sicily.
Well said. Thank you for writing what I have thinking.
You are welcome....

If you ever learn to play guitar, The Smiths is so pleasurable to play and sing at the same time.
Even if you've heard this one before?
Same here. What a song mfg
Neither do I 🤩🤩
Every time my neighbour hears me playing this, she bangs along on the wall. She must love it too, so I play it louder for her. Xx

Hah that's funny and original
its ccalled "stop me if youve heard this one before.
This song begs to be played loud

"She bangs along"

thats so sweet what :(((
I think it's safe to say The Smiths got A LOT of us through the perils of adolesce. These guys are my Beatles. I'm now 57 years old and STILL love 'em.
Just hearing the first 10 seconds of this catapults me to a better place
Exactly
"And the pain was enough to make
A shy, bald, Buddhist reflect
And plan a mass murder"
bloody great lyrics!
its alright
This caused the song to be scrapped as a single in the UK as there was in fact a real-life mass murder around the same time. So they used this same video to release "I've Started Something I Couldn't Finish".
Just phenomenal
Whenever I watch these videos, I cannot get over just how beautiful Morrissey was when he was young
and still is
Everyone’s beautiful when they’re young though. Looks fade with age. He’s still pretty beautiful though lol

One of the greatest songs ever written. Definitely one of the top ten greatest Smith's song, if not the best song lyrically and musically.

Hipsters!!! This was 1986, we hadn’t heard of the word then (thank god), middle class wankers with check shirts, beards and trust funds helping them run a juice bar in Hoxton. Fuck off.
The Smiths were from the rougher parts of Manchester creating music which made people think. They were not, at the time, massively popular but to those of us who bought in they were very important. One of those by whom you judged your friends. Like ‘em, I’m with you. Dislike and I’m against you. Can’t say that of music now and to use the word hipster in relation to The Smiths is an gross insult.
This song reminds of sneaking into the living room on a Sunday night in high school to watch 120 minutes on MTV. The nostalgia is thick like a warm blanket 😊
120Minutes was the best!
Absolutely!
A smiths’ fan who also supports a neo fascist puppet regime masquerading as a civilised country. Funny the company you have to keep to like music!
yes, 12 midnight on Sunday in mid 1980s.i remember.
Addicted to the bassline, smooth and clean.
First time I am hearing this song, and I cannot stop listening to it.
I'm in the same tip as you I've heard it over 100 Times in the past week
Morrissey is such an original. I still enjoy his songs today like I did yesterday.
That's the definition of insanity - doing the same thing and expecting different results.
GET HELP.
Rest In Peace Andy Rourke 🙏❤🎸
Quite simply the greatest band in the history of music!
If you've heard no other bands, sure.
Spot on totally agree absolute bliss
Oh, to ride bicycles around Manchester with Morrissey. Even if I got a puncture on a desolate hillside or a sore itch, the pleasure and the privilege would be mine. Well, I wonder, if we rode without ease on those streets where he was raised, would we be safe? Shyness is nice, but shyness could stop us from asserting ourselves on those streets with double decker busses, ten ton trucks, and charming cars. Being 22, clumsy, shy, and one of the most inept that ever stepped, there is a high chance I would become a cyclist in a coma, which is quite serious. That being said, feeling the soil fall over my head, or meeting at the cemetry gates one last time would not bother me much because I am the son and heir of nothing in particular. Stop me if I am painting a vulgar picture or if you think you've heard some of this before.

“And the pain was enough to make a shy bald Buddhist reflect and plan a mass murder” hard to think of a better line ever written than that ❤️
“We hate it when our friends become successful and if they’re Northern that makes it even worse”.

You may recall that the song was withdrawn from sale in the UK as there was in fact a real-life mass murder around the same time. So they used this same video to release "I've Started Something I Couldn't Finish".
@@80ssynthfan48Damn. I thought only we Americans were that idiotic. Oh well. At least it was released in a larger way, on a national level there. As a teen in the USA, you had to struggle, search, and do your serious research to find great (or any, really) British punk and post-punk music.
One of their best, very melodic.
Almost as good as 'Take Me Back to Dear Old Blighty'.
This song just plain kicks ass!
When Strangeways, Here We Come, came out I listened to it every day for years and still do.
Johnny Marr's guitar arrangement tho...
so underated mann
He was able to create texture always different to every song but still unmistakably recognisable.
All the band members were incredible musicians....
I'd rather say, Mike Joyce and Andy Rourke were the most underrated members of the band, particularly from Morrissey and Marr. These two never granted their Joyce and Rourke any royalty penny even though nothing would have been ever possible without them.
They sued them and won, apparently.
> These two never granted their Joyce and Rourke any royalty penny
Quite far wide of the mark.
Though the both of them would later dispute it in court, Joyce and Rourke were both on a contract awarding them 10% of royalties and performances.
Joyce won 25% of all future royalties plus a 1 million pounds in back royalties.
Rourke settled out of court for £83,000 and 10 per cent of royalties, renouncing all further claims as he was broke.
Gorgeous man with an angelic voice and beautiful hair cut and glasess . The smiths music is so beautiful and so nice listen to...I can listen over and over..cant find that kind of music these days..
Got to be one of the most perfect popular music tunes ever.
Lyrical genius of Morissey and the musical and guitar genius of Johnny Marr, perfection.
I'm deeply in love with this song.
I bloody love the Smiths! I didn't appreciate them properly when I was a teenager. I was into house music. Nothing wrong with that. But this is soooo good - amazing, tongue in cheek lyrics AND incredible musicians. Nobody nowadays is as good xx
I dont believe you
Your dam right
I loved both house and post punk. I still live by both in my 50s.
i still can feel in this song that andy rourke is alive, even if he's dead today. we will never forget you 💔
One of the best smiths and just songs in general
One of the greatest songs ever! It just never stops, it surprises, its memorable, the guitar is magical, the words like nothing you've ever heard before!!
I'm 14 and I love this song.
Good taste
As you should, good music is beyond time
me too,
Makes me nostalgic for the 80's though I was only a kid born in 1981
There will never be a band like the smiths
Reading Morrisey's Biography. He says this and Girlfriend in a Coma were both "frustratingly unwatchable" so I came to see for myself. Maybe it's nostalgia, but I like em.
I swear the smiths are such an acquired taste. First time I heard this I was like okay. It's decent. Now I'm like, 'STOP ME OOHOOOOOOHHHH STOP ME'
yep, Im addicted now, but in my 20s I thought "whats the big deal with morrissey?", Now I get whats the big deal with him, hes a genius
man, the song, the lyrics, the video, Morrissey was hitting the mark every single time, its all so memorable, yet so real. One of the greatest urban poets we've had
"I still love you - only slighty, only slightly -- less than I used to." That lyric has echoed so true for me in many relationships (or sometimes imagined relationships). In fact I'll probably quote it tomorrow when I speak with someone I've just realized has been lying to me.
The greatest musical pairing that England has bestowed upon the world since Lennon and McCarthy.
I agree
Melissa or Joseph?
"nothings changed I still love you...only slightly less than I used to..."
The man is a poet and described the pain and anguish of a break up perfectly.
Great lyrics, great musicians
That's how I feel about the one from Germany who I haven't seen in 20 years.
Rest in Peace, Andy Rourke . God bless you 🕊🙏🏽 ❤
The best Irish band never to come out of Ireland....

If I'm not mistaken, this video was filmed after the Smiths had broken up.
It was also used for "I Started Something ..." and "There Is A Light ...".
makes sense. great song.
Still a banger! 2023 baby!
the production is beyond sublime
So many teenage blissful memories tied up in one Smiths song. Sigh. God how I loved, love and will forever love the Smiths. I was one of these Morrissey clones in the video.
Those boys are so lucky to be hanging with moz shooting a film, wearing his merch, cruising with him etc.. wowzer jealous
and girls!
Top ten songs of my favorite songs
Probably my favorite Smith's song. Johnny Marr's guitar is just so amazing on this song. Morrissey's voice is the icing on the cake.
One of the most underrated guitarists. And in the whole Smith's catalog he plays only one guitar solo.
The 80's Alternative/New Wave was the best.
True heirs of The Beatles in 1966-1967.
63arizona1 the Smiths were not new wave. They were the epitome of indie rock.
Without question. After punk even pop songs had messages. 80's were amazing and led to Raves!
At this time there was no internet and take a bike ride with friends was very fun !!
"Very fun"? That's appalling grammar.
@@thejeff5825 man's just expressing his nostalgia nobody cares how perfect the grammar is it still makes sense
Paying more attention to the bassline than ever... RIP
First Smiths video I ever saw on MTV. I was a kid and this was an infectious song I sang around the house. RIP Andy Rourke
Love the bass tone in this song. The smiths are simply talented!
Do you play the bass?
"I still love you -- only slightly less than I used to " - I loved that line when I first heard it back in the 80's since it is true in a lot of situations ! Morrissey had 'cut to the bone' lyrics !!
After hearing the instrumental break at 1:32-1:47, I can die happily. So simple, yet so heavenly. Marr, Joyce, and Rourke just know how to make you feel things without uttering a single word.
Where are they now...Their youth forever immortalised
In the 1980's I never thought I'd miss the 1980's as much as I miss the 1980's in 2020.
Strangeways truly was their best album. It’s got the most complex (in a good way) melodies and is just as good as music gets.
Nah. Queen is Dead was their best album. This was them gravitating toward the mainstream. I'm glad they "stopped themselves" before they turned into U2.
@@coolnamebro I think Strangeways is superior to the Queen is dead. The songwriting was elevated to another level. I love the Queen is dead (it’s my second favorite), but yeah I’m glad that they went out on top and didn’t go all U2 on everyone’s ass.
Whoever the bass player was , his part connected the whole song together. And the drums

I heard this song at the store few times, and I was enchanted! This is my kind of music.
