    From Wikipedia:
    "Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before" is a song by the English rock band the Smiths, written by singer Morrissey and guitarist Johnny Marr. The song was first released on the group's 1987 album Strangeways, Here We Come. Marr's music features a larger sound, courtesy of a 12-string Gibson ES-335, and one of his few guitar solos with the Smiths. Morrissey's lyrics allude to alcohol and deception.
    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

    I just told my wife and my two girls aged 9 and 11 to "listen to this girls!"...My wife could hardly believe it..."Is that real" she asked..."It sounds so incredible!". Well done Sir! 😍

    Your singing is amazing we all know that but your also absolute KILLER guitar player, to be able to play all of Johnny's motifs and riffs while singing is just another level of talent.... Absolutely amazing man.

    0:51 - The vibrato you managed to introduce to “My Love” is so underrated in its difficulty to successfully sing - you have a phenomenal voice, my man.

    So glad I found this in my hunt for a way to cover this on acoustic. This is likely outside my current skill set but I'd love it if there's a tab or chord breakdown in existence somewhere. Practice makes perfect.

    There is a breathless, relentless, stream-of-consciousness vibe about this song resolving in the oddly plaintive but very northern English couplet - ‘Who said I lied because I never, I never/ Who said I lied because I never’. One of my many favourite Smiths songs: you sing it extremely well, Adam.

  • @HeadlessGuitarPlayer
    @HeadlessGuitarPlayer Před 2 lety +5

    Awesome version mate, really good. This is one of those where the melody is based around a few tension notes, with that constantly shifting Marr harmony. When he finally resolves the tension in the melody (e.g. 'my-y-y-love') it just sounds so good.
