It would be amazing if you play the whole song through.

So confusing, because you played the ending refrain in the beginning of the video! Like you did part 1 and part 3 and left out part two. So I'm thinking, this doesn't sound right. Because the second part you played in the beginning actually is the refrain at the end! Other than that great lesson.

I didn't realize that riff in the verse was so easy! I love how Buzzcocks songs are so simple but not boring. Thanks for the lesson!

At 12,38 do you have to lift your second finger off the second string ? I leave it on and find it easier to go to the next chord.

Great collection of framed single artwork, mate.

it's a cape-o!😆

Hey there. Great stuff. Actually it is an E minor it’s not the first time you do the B7 or whatever it is and then you go to G on the first one but every time you go back to that B7 you go to the E minor than the 7 then the D- you can see them doing it in the official video and when she plays acoustic yeah so it’s in there it’s just not out every time thanks man sounds great

Where did you get those posters?!!!

Great song taught brilliantly again by yourself, Gary. I remember listening to this song many, many years ago, every morning, during the dark, winter months, through my Walkman, waiting for the bus to go to work.

Mate thanks for uploading this.Ive seen maybe 4 videos on this song & none are as in depth as this especially on the little slide manouvre.

Hey Gary, do you like suede by any chance? Looking for a tutorial on Metal Mickey. Absolute bangerrrr!

Thank you so much. Everyone else just shows their fingers but doesn't explain❤

Fantastic tutorial & excellent (& very appropriate) choice of guitar! ❤

Where did you get your posters from?

This is the best tutorial for one of the best Smiths songs. Much appreciated!

It doesn't get any better than this - Thank you! Cheers.

Brilliant, Mate. Thank you for this - Cheers!

Genius it's descending all the time .. The B really makes it .. Think Ill try it tomorrow ... Sure beats that 1 guys 15 part series how to play the stupid thing . ... Detroit

The Long Ryders Yeah! Andy Kershaw loved them and introduced them on Whistle Test BBC2 back in earlyish/mid 80s I guess. I loved them too from the first song. I have two copies of Native Sons bc I wore out the first one. That early evening Whistle Test with Kershaw, Mark Ellen and David Hepworth brought loads of great bands to the attention of this music starved fan in the Mild Mild (South)West. Long Ryders touring UK this year I believe, sadly without Tom Stevens (RIP)

Anyone doing The Smiths is a friend of mine…of course I subbed👍

Love this. Wonderful. Thanks

thank you for showing and explaining this underrated smiths song, been trying to learn it FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS BUT I couldnt get the rythm right. Thank you, greetings from chile.

Great stuff. Clear and easy to follow. Many thanks for taking the time to make it.

Nice. I wonder if Last Night I Dreamt that Somebody Loved Me was influenced by that Bm intro

Hi Gary, hope you’re well. Could you please make a tutorial on nowhere fast when u can. Thanks

Great

Awesome version of one of my favorite tunes. Thank you for sharing

I got to see the pretenders a few times way back when. What a great band. Chrissie Hynde - wow what talent and heart. Great lesson, fun tune

Going to Carolina is such a great and accessible tune (accessible on the JT scale). Would love more JT...you can close your eyes for example. Tyvm for the great content and easy teaching style.

Love long Riderd

Hello. I have only just discovered your channel yesterday, and I love what you do on here, giving songs like these a spotlight. Please keep up the amazing work!!

Love this song... great tutorial... I'm gonna learn this one for sure! Thanks!

I was really curious about the 11:07 part, nicely done! Thank you!

Thanks for your perfect tutorial for a perfect pop song I don’t know why I haven’t included it in my repertoire Gary thanks dude

love this video also what are those posters in the back and where can i get them!!!!!

Perfect lesson. Thank you. Your tele is sounding great. What pickups are in them please? Just an observation on the alternative chord fingerings you mention - on a studio session (more often at home these days) I'm asked to cut the bass strings on chord shapes because the bass guitar is already there. It lightens up the guitar sound and cuts through better on a mix. No great insights there I suppose. Also, I often find it's an easier shape to shift to depending on what's been before or coming next and if there any little fills between the chords.

Driver 8 is one of their best songs - iconic as an example of the unique REM sound - my favorite as it is kinda silly, but poignant

Great job Gary. One of my very favourites.

Well done. I learnt the song this way some time ago from a Michael Casswell DVD. So many miss the 2 droning E flat strings in the middle of the chord which are important to get the sound. Michael was such a great teacher sadly no longer with us.

So my 80s/90s indie cover band is increasing our set list. Echo Beach on the list. Straight to KZfaq. Ah GG has it, Search over!!! Thanks man. Spot on as ever!

amazing thank you! can you do Girl Afraid please 🙏

Was Keith playing a telecaster on the song?

Awesome tutorial! Glad I found your channel

Thanks

I know you’ve been doing a TON of Smiths material already, but I’d be absolutely gutted if you did Handsome Devil or Girl Afraid! Admittedly, Girl Afraid is a bit of a challenge of course 😅

Great lesson, thanks Gary

That Sheraton is gorgeous

Hey gary could you make a video of how to play girl afraid by the smiths?

Nice!

As Anthony said to Cleopatra as he opened a crate of ale..oooh I say. Bloody marvellous Gary, luvvin yer werk!
