My word, he's not headless anymore!

[@pippipster6767]

The sheer extent of Johnny M’s exquisite guitar genius has no bounds

[@vesuviabatman]

This channel is a gem

[@HeadlessGuitarPlayer]

Thanks 👍

[@rexcooper3365]

Best mime I've ever seen!
Joking! Some serious skill there bro. Sure puts Morrissey in his place!
Edit: RIP the utterly irreplaceable and sadly missed Andy Rourke.

I'm a Japanese. About 10 years ago, I was moved when I watched you coverd One Love by Stone Roses because almost no one can play like you at that time. And tabs wasn't as spread as now. So, I was suprised at your accurate playing.
I also love The Smiths. Keep on rockin'!! Sorry for my poor English. With gratitude from Japan.

[@HeadlessGuitarPlayer]

Thanks! I’ll be doing a lesson for One Love too in the near future

[@fkmf4513]

Thank you, too!

[@georgelorence1089]

Absolutely awesome. Great job. Being waiting to see as a player for 30 years or more how Johnny did what he did. Still amazed

[@southwalesoutdoors]

Brilliant. Bang on. Thanks I've tried for years to play this unsuccessfully until now 😊

[@IrishBog]

Thanks again. Each of these is priceless

[@HeadlessGuitarPlayer]

Thanks mate

[@Renav21]

You're awesome

[@dahliafiend]

Thank you. Your older video and the 20 second Marr clip are how I finally learned this song. The Smiths are one of those bands where only a select few players and teachers on here I find trustworthy. For some reason although not as hard as most Marr a lot of Coxon's work with Blur also gets butchered. Two guys on here who get it are the other I also trust for Smiths lessons. Alll Brits of course! @AnyoneCanPlayGuitar (Adrian Woodward) being one, i f you don't already know him is also an incredible teacher.

[@HeadlessGuitarPlayer]

Thanks - yeah I subscribe to the ACPG channel. Its great. think the difference though is that I’m doing this in my spare time when I get the opportunity so the production quality is lower and uploads less frequent. But glad it helps 👍

[@bluesatmosphere4659]

i was so shocked when all of your videos got deleted, luckly everything is back

[@frecciaceleste1969]

Excellent thanks 😊 👍

[@josemariaramirezzalama8238]

Fantastic!!!!! Thanks for this tutorial!!!!

[@davidonion4150]

OMFG please do more lessons in the format! Fantastic!

[@igantiusfaraday5149]

Excellently played. 👍

[@josephcastro7629]

Johnny Marr is an actual God!

[@jordantaylor4992]

Thank you for another great lesson, next one please do "You’ve got everything now” or "Cemetery gates”

[@HeadlessGuitarPlayer]

Thanks. They are on the list. If I can get enough support via the site I could probably do most of the songs played live as a four piece :)

Thanks for the upload. You are a fantastic guitar player.

[@AmazinglyGayPhil]

We're spoilt on RUclips these days, Amateur Audio and Video quality is phenomenal now, the early 2005 days were like 1940s movies in comparison.

[@camwhitman5425]

Thank you for this tutorial. Also any chance you can do one for Draize Train?

[@russer98]

Great stuff headless thanks for doing such a great video

Thank you for this Video 🙏 love this Song
You are awesome

Please post moree

[@littleleaf8541]

I think you need to show fingering positions for the musically inept. I know how to play guitar, and I understand basic music theory.. but when you shout chords, I don’t know where to place my fingers.. oh well. Love Johnny Marr’s guitar! Easier to write your own music, I guess.
