The world is a better place with Johnny Marr in it.

Johnny's 2 minute guitar solo at around 3m15secs sends shivers up my spine... If that's not channelling something spiritual from another DIMENSION, I dont know what is...

God gave us Johnny Marr and Beer so we would be happy.

johnny stripped the 80s off it and gave it a contemporary identity. brilliant!

Clarifications: 1. Johnny Marr wrote this song, "Getting Away with It" with Bernard Sumner when the two formed Electronic. 2. Johnny Marr was the chief songwriter of the Smiths. He wasn't Morrissey's guitarist. They're bandmates in an equal collaboration. If anything, I would say that Johnny did most of the heavy lifting as the songwriter. 3. I've seen Johnny Marr in concert, and he is a genius rock guitarist.

Johnny Marr is a genius.

It's a shame Electronic didn't do more stuff, cracking band, combined some quality British talent

Wow!! 😎I prefer this to the original by a HUGE margin. 🖒🖒 The original is wonderful, but here, Johnny Marr's guitar tones, chord voicings, vocals, and the overall arrangement & groove are absolutely perfect!!! 👏

all four musicians playing at the very highest level of performance...a classic

Seven years on and I can never get bored of watching this.

The British always seem to make the best music!

Wow, that drummer is simply stupendous.. A human metronome ❤

Middle section is fucking hypnotic!

I work construction and when I get home covered in shit I put my music on and Iam free...thanks johnny

This is a brilliant version of a classic song

He's always supporting the song, no stupid soloing and it sounds so attractive.

Electronics version was excellent. This is even better. Johnny Marr is a true God of Rock!!!

Waves of nostalgia.... the song of my summer of '91

2023 as good as it’s ever sounded. Bravo Johnny!

Solo starting at 3:20 is my favorite Marr style. Love his extended repetition of those chord patterns. Gorgeous bell-like Fender tone. Reminds me of his part in Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others.

That Solo is epic, The guy is a legend and one of the nicest blokes you'll ever meet.

Beautiful version. Everything I've heard of his in recent years surpasses the originals. He's at the top of my bucket list for shows.

Man, never heard Johnny sing before, he’s not perfect but he’s certainly capable when he needs to be, props to the guy he’s got a good voice.

This man is a guitaring wizard.

Johnny is tapping into some divine power when he plays. His face says it all.

I could listen to this all day long. What an outstanding piece of music.

This is the best live performance I've ever seen, not just the quality of playing and choice of FX, but the whole mood and tone. Its perfection perfected. Their stage presence, the colour of Johnny's Jag, the lights, the shadows, the silver nail varnish and not to mention that drum roll on the outtro. There's no thorn in this bands side, they're exactly where they want and need to be. Hats off.

The melodic arpeggios are sooooo dang good!!! He's a legend

Never get tired of this. He's such a great guitarist. Lovely feeling for the instrument.

Just saw Johnny Marr in concert. It was awesome, he is genius. The solo to this song was even more mesmerizing than it is here.

the drummer looks to be having a whale of a time - fair play to him, an amazing version of a fantastic song

Iwan Gronow is a bloody brilliant Bassist too

Man, there's just a delectable Haunting Quality about this song.

I was there that day, somewhere down the front, not gonna lie it was so weird watching live music in a film environment at midday instead of in a gig venue at 9pm, normally I'm a proper dancer at gigs so standing still (bar the odd bop) was strange. But you know what, I was standing a few feet away from Johnny Fuckin Marr so it was one of the best things ever!

Johnny Marr's guitar playing is the one and only! His work with Matt Johnson in The The is EPIC! Hope to see them live again!

What a legend, what a talent! How can someone do vocals to songs where he wasn’t the original singer and not just from one band? Amazing!

That first Electronic album is absolutely amazing. Certainly one my "desert island" albums. Would have loved to hear this at Coachella in 2013.

He is music Personified. One of the greatest. The emotion he conveys through his music permeates within the soul.

I could listen to Johnny's guitar-solos all day long. What a lovely sound! 💛

This is a living legend at work. Genius.

He NEVER ceases to relevant, no matter what the next trend drags in....

Totally love this version on guitars brilliance all the way through from start to finish and the guitar interlude in the middle is simple but beautiful. King Johnny is the man!!! 🎸🎵👏🏻💯

This is the best solo of all time Full of emotion not just TAB and The guitar speaks !!!!!

Its fair to say he can play...

Love this performance and live version of this great Electronic song, brilliant how Johnny has put his own stamp on it to make it different from the original version, it just works so well as a guitar track with the beautiful guitar interludes and guitar solos that entwine with those brilliant sounding syncopated guitar riffs, a quality version!!!!

So impressed with his vocals

Took his original to a whole new level with this rendition

I've been walking in the rain just to get wet on purpose I've been forcing myself not to forget just to feel worse I've been getting away with it all my life I hate that mirror, it makes me feel so worthless I'm an original sinner but when I'm with you I couldn't care less I've been getting away with it all my life I've been getting away with it all my life However I look it's clear to see I love you more than you love me However I look it's clear to see I love you more than you love me I love you more than you love me However I look it's clear to see I thought I gave up falling in love a long long time ago I guess I like it but I can't tell you, you shouldn't really know And it's been true ... all my life Yes, it's been true ... all my life However I look it's clear to see I love you more than you love me However I look it's clear to see I love you more than you love I love you more than you love me However I look it's clear to see Source: Musixmatch Songwriters: JOHNNY MARR/ / NEIL FRANCIS TENNANT / Bernard Sumner (gb 2)

Electronic - getting away with it, in my top 5 songs of all time, and this version is now in my top 10

Beautiful guitar solo

❤Enter a different universe when he plays that guitar ❤

Ladies and Gentleman: JOOOONNYYY MAAARR with the best cover of this song EVER!

The Music is so powerful that crosses boundaries. Brazil here enjoying Johnny F. Marr

Johnny 4 decades of phenomenal Alt Power Pop songwriting, I am with you from the daffodils days to today.... Keep it up Johnny Oh and I love that Jag

by far my best discovery - Johnny Marr - this year - love his guitar play, tones, setup, songwriting very much !

Why so much surprise? Johnny Marr was the one who made music in The Smiths. It is among the 5 best guitarists in the UK. He also has a good voice. He is one of the musical geniuses

Johnny Marr's guitar work combined with Barney's vocals and Neil Tennant backing vocals made for a total banger of the 80's. Wish Electronic could have done some more tracks. They were great. This is exquisite guitar playing.

Great track written by Jonny Marr , Bernard Sumner and Neil Tennant . Awesome (I like the way Jonny does it the best )

The best version ….its perfect

Amazing Johnny Fuckin Marr is awesome . Been a huge fan of him for long time !!!

Johnny is the best! His work with The The is timeless!

What a great live version. Brilliant backing band.

Johnny ‘s guitar in this song is eargastic

if I could have a fraction of johnny marr's talent....I'm not sure if I would share it with you all......I'd just smoke weed all day & play concerts for myself....an untouchable guitar player in my opinion

What a fantastic version ❤

That middle 8 / breakdown section was really awesome and dare I say pretty timeless. Reminds me why I took up the guitar in the first place. Best guitar solo I've heard for years. To my ears it sounds like the best bits of The The (Soul mining era) and The Stone Roses put through a breakdown / crescendo culled from Sasha's glory days. Roll on Brixton next week!!

How can you NOT like Johnny Marr. Hes the man

Love this version!!!

Absolutely brilliant. Essential music.

Johnny Marr e' stato ed e' il miglior chitarrista della sua generazione..non c'è dubbio!

wow wow wow That guitar sound.

This is magnificent.

never realised he was a such a good singer,great version

Class is class, it never dies

WOW!!!! I always loved this song in Barney's and Neil's voice, but Johnny did a great job here! KUDOS!

Better than any of the posers who think that it's all about distortion and fast scales. Marrs the man

"However I look it's clear to seeee!" Hit it Johnny....absolutely astounding musician!!

The new(?) melody line from 4.05 is sublime, really adds to this classic track.

This is simply fantastic. I love James and Johnny Marr. Its easy to love them both.

Johnny wrote this.....amazing all round musician!!! Ty Johnny Mar

Impecable, que buen bajo. El riff de Johnny Marr impresionante, el Baterista de otro planeta. Que buen tema.

Johnny is massively underrated as a singer, an absolutely blinding guitarist. Makes this song his own, also discovered it purely accidentally

I can't get enough of this ...

Always a fave at his concerts....saw him perform this in Melbourne a few nights ago. Total brilliance!

Yeah he's definitely getting away with it! Gorgeous version!

Absolutely wonderful version of a great song ☺️

Sending me a message to my 20 years old self, don't ignore him because you read something he said that you disliked. He is awesome.

Johnny F****N Marr. Genius guitarist. Nice Dude as well .

pure melodic genius!

This is one of the greatest band's for a long time to come around I'd love to catch a live show before I die which isn't too far off unfortunately. Oh well maybe the choir of angels will be this great. I know they will be.

Fab, I just love this.

Brilliant. Great version of Johnny Marr.

my favourite ever musician and hopefully an inspiration to my son ryan - enjoy

he looks pretty transported when he plays it. it must be awesome to love the things you write that much. still wish he could hit the high notes in the chorus, though.

I'm almost 70 years old and would rather see Johnny than bands revisiting music 50-55 years ago when i was a kid

In my top10 live performances of all time. Bangin' - In the front row! What a band, put together with great understanding. A bit of Brian Jones T Shirt in the mix - Changed over for later video's. Tight, strong and a bitter sweet symphony. Rock and Roll will never die - and I like it.

師匠のリフは至高

What a fabulous version...the guitar break is just outstanding...

excellent musicians all round (other than Mr Marr himself obviously) ...but particular kudos to the fantastic Jack Mitchell on drums on this song.

Saludos desde Chile !! Nice version, very good !!
