When I hear Johnny Marr play a Smiths song with one instrument being his guitar I can actually hear every other instrument including Morrissey's vocals on some other plane. Like you can hear the rest of the song as a ghost while his guitar resurrects the other parts just for a brief moment and then he stops and the rest of the ensemble is laid back to rest. Just fucking beautiful.

Been a fan since the mid 80's, his songs and riffs stick with you for life. They become part of your soul, he's very melancholic due to being Irish Celt. But that works towards his creativity and inspiration, thank God. Very humble and very honestly true.

@davidhoban3281 6 жыл бұрын

Gladiator0719 Spot on. He has said before that he tries to turn daydreams into sound. As a guitar player I love the melancholic, dreamy type music that he comes up with. It moves my soul. It reminds me of that state I sometimes get when I'm in bed, sleeping but on the verge of being awake, when things become very clear, almost as if you understand what's important in life before it gets swamped by the rush and humdrum of the day!

Thats the thing of it for me. Celtic music. Irish folk music - plugged in. He has some sort of connection to it. He must
