  • What can you say about this song except…gorgeous.
    From Wikipedia:
    "That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore" is a song by the English rock band the Smiths. The full length version of the song appears on the album Meat Is Murder, and was the sole track from the album to be released, in edited form, as a UK single. The song was composed by guitarist Johnny Marr and singer Morrissey. Marr has cited it as one of his favourite Smiths songs.”
    Lyrics:
    “Park the car at the side of the road
    You should know
    Time's tide will smother you
    And I will too
    When you laugh about people who feel so
    Very lonely
    Their only desire is to die
    Well, I'm afraid
    It doesn't make me smile
    I wish I could laugh
    But that joke isn't funny anymore
    It's too close to home
    And it's too near the bone
    It's too close to home
    And it's too near the bone
    More than you'll ever know ...
    Kick them when they fall down
    Kick them when they fall down
    You kick them when they fall down
    Kick them when they fall down
    You kick them when they fall down
    Kick them when they fall down
    You kick them when they fall down
    Kick them when they fall down
    It was dark as I drove the point home
    And on cold leather seats
    Well, it suddenly struck me
    I just might die with a smile on my
    Face after all
    I've seen this happen in other people's
    Lives
    And now it's happening in mine
    I've seen this happen in other people's
    Lives
    And now it's happening in mine
    I've seen this happen in other people's
    Lives
    And now it's happening in mine
    I've seen this happen in other people's
    Lives
    And now it's happening in mine
    Oh ...
    I've seen this happen in other people's
    Lives
    Oh ...
    And now it's happening in mine
    Happening in mine
    Happening in mine
    Happening in mine
    Happening in mine
    I've seen this happen in other people's
    Lives
    Oh...
    And now, now, now it's happening in mine
    (I've seen this happen)
    Happening in mine
    Oh...now, now
    I've seen this happen in other people's
    Lives
    Oh...
    And now it's happening in mine
    (Happen)
    Happening in mine
    Oh...
    Happening in mine
    Happening in mine
    Happening in mine
    I've seen this happen in other people's
    Lives
    Oh...
    And now, now, now it's happening in mine
    Happening in mine
    Mine, mine
    Happening in mine”

    I got into your channel through your ''the cure'' covers. I especially like your guitar playing, and your voice is really solid i think. I have a feeling you would do a good cover of ''drunk drivers/killer whales'' by car seat headrest. I don't know if you do requests but there you go haha. Also more Alice in Chains could be cool, you did great with nutshell. Anyway i hope you keep going and you have fun with what you do.

    I understand you get many song requests Adam, but I would love to see you do a cover of the great(est) Liverpool band; The Coral. I feel that their vibes are just up your alley and the stuff you usually cover. And if I could be even more cheeky, I would suggest one following songs; "Jacqueline", "put the sun back", "she's comin' around" or "being somebody else".

    I mean this in the most respectful way possible but you are far too talented both with your playing and singing to not be taking it to the next level and releasing music of your own. Every one of your covers blow me away and are so unlike others that feel like imitation while yours genuinely capture the mood and feeling of the original.
