The Smiths - Asleep (RIP Andy Rourke)

RIP Andy, I hope you sleep well ❤️

[@Roy-ck9mb]

As a bassist myself, Andy absolutely amazes me. His basslines were just so unique. He's been a great inspiration to me, and still is.

[@aldocort3418]

Heaven knows I'm miserable, the old house, barbarism begins at home. All amazing bass parts, any others? 😢

[@1thess523]

I still remember driving and listening to Louder Than Bombs and all of a sudden the bass just seemed to stick out over all the instruments and I was like 🤯🤯

Well. There must be...

[@ronpotts6385]

"There is another world. There is a better world. Oh, there must be." Cheers, Sir. And rest well, Andy Rourke 🕊️.

[@arunca190]

Beautiful. Also want to mention with respect to Andy Rorke, I can NOT imagine another bassist mixing so well with Marr or Morrissey and Joyce. He is truly a main ingredient and an irreplaceable force. The Smiths are no longer in this world physically. But they are here forever spiritually.

[@VillaAlegreKaty]

This brought tears to my eyes my good sir. This song gave me comfort when I lost my Mom last year. Thank you for giving me comfort today, once more. Deep in the cell of my heart 🎶🎶

[@HeliosRa]

Well picked and well played Adam. RIP Andy

[@thebadhumours]

Beautiful. Thank you.

Saw the young man with The Smiths in concert at the infamous Greek theater at UC Berkeley in 1986. I was so young too! Since that concert I've been theirs mostly, although I do like to sing Morrissey's songs also. Hard to find pictures of that particular event, so I usually view Andy, Mike, Johnny and Morrissey in their Euro gigs in that same time period. I've seen interviews where Andy and Mike refer to Canada North America when, in fact, they were here in the USA on tour briefly as well. I should know I was there. All forgiven. I love you, Andy. I'll miss you. ❤😢

[@baumesindtoll.9408]

Your voice is so calming and close to the original. Really beautiful, your Smiths covers are perfect!!

[@ryplay08]

First I wanna say that was a great cover. As a fellow bassist, Andy’s death was a real blow. He was such a great bass player and no one can replace him. R.I.P.

[@ashleyl.6692]

I LOVE the smiths, but this is better to me than the original song. Your voice is so wonderful it’s like honey to a sore throat… it’s wonderful and beautiful I love it!! Your so talented ❤

[@WS102]

Absolutely fantastic Adam. Great as always and possibly my favorite cover so far. A minimalist version that is dedicated to Andy. I play guitar too, but my favorite is playing bass, and being almost the same age as Andy has been tough to deal with. He'll be missed by many. RIP Andy.

[@Mortikaye]

Deep in the cell of my heart I will feel so glad to go,

Phenomenal job, Adam!! You’re singing and playing really take my breath away!! Awesome! Andy’s bass playing was so unorthodox, yet so magnificent that he carried every Smiths song ever recorded.
