Thanks again to Boss for sponsoring today's lesson! Download the Boss Katana patch I used here: bosstoneexchange.com/liveset/6b1b4153-3fca-47e2-9deb-d670dc9ec632/?

[@albertfernandez9934]

Never tutored any of my suggestions. How BOUT Santana, YOU JUST DON'T CARE from his 1st album.?!? Cmon Marty !!!! Tonks !!

[@oxidegaming2718]

Hey Marty, can you do a tutorial on The death of you and me by Noel gallaghers high flying birds? I can’t find any good tutorials ❤

[@gwennyboy6000]

Could you do Octopus’s Garden by The Beatles? Also, love your content 👍

[@HELLOTHERE-pn4jz]

I would go out tonight but I got this to learn

[@matttarpley1071]

Marty saving barstools everywhere, one video at a time.😂

[@ibeswimmin]

Don't you want to see people and life

[@ssophiazz]

i would go out tonight, but i haven't got a stitch to wear.

[@Magicalfluidprocess]

Are the smiths big in the states ?

[@peterparker642]

​@@Magicalfluidprocessyes, much bigger in the 80s

[@RC32Smiths01]

Johnny Marr is such a great melodic guitar writer. His parts absolutely fit the tones that The Smiths always go for. The band as a whole are definitive part of the 80s.

[@mlann2333]

Absolutely true, and he was so young as well to come up with such great melodies and riffs. Just raw talent.

[@tonybraines7172]

What difference does it make blew me away. Johnny Marr was a natural

[@ericbell812]

I first heard this song when it came out nearly 40 years ago and I’ve never been able to work it out - looks like Marty found this tough as well so that gives me some comfort! Johnny Marr clearly met the devil at a crossroads somewhere near Manchester - how the heck did he come up with this at the age of 18 or 19? One of the great mysteries of the universe.

[@thetruepinhead156]

Holy shit it’s amazing to see you’re around still Marty I haven’t logged into this account in forever. I remember watching your nothing else matters tutorial when I was like 16!! Thanks for inspiring me and teaching me when I was young man. You’re the GOAT!!!!!

[@Ramon_Ramone]

Thanks so much for uploading. Marr and Morrissey are geniuses. More Smiths lessons please.

[@ewwtv7553]

This charming man taught me how to play charming man

[@MisterBrain]

Y'know Marty, I spent hours trying to play this in the mid-80s (with no help from the internet) and it's clear from your video that I got it wrong. I'm now, in my early 50s, going to have to atone for this and finish your tutorial.

[@ZK_SHREDR]

Finally,so happy this dropped. Been waiting ages. Johnny Marr is a goated player and criminally underrated

[@smoothbeak]

Really great guitar piece, honestly a lot of guitar stuff can be a bit boring and repetitive, but this is very innovative with a good level of complexity. The guitar tone is really good for this one too

[@TurfShifter]

Such a great song. Johnny Marr is one of the worlds few true guitar legends.

[@vasilis3013]

Such a legendary song!! Thank you marty🤘

[@kadeatkinson1308]

Yesss I've been waiting for this since the short you posted 🎉🎉

[@Drjackdempsey9644]

Damn Marty finally doing The Smiths. Hell yeah!!!

[@cameronpilling6675]

[@jaxsonm4986]

Never thought I’d see the day Marty posts the smiths

[@MattH1874]

From this charming man, I'd just like to thank you for all you've taught me and that I appreciate all you do, Marty ✌️ ☮️ ❤X

[@cassyvorster466]

Nice one Marty! This song was in my head yesterday😮 i didnt think the smiths were big in the states. Great 80s guitar FYC she drives me crazy and roxette look sharp all took the style and used it

[@ardenthira2687]

Marty Schwartz: Mindreader and angel 🙏

[@alleypez8555]

Funny timing been on my head to learn this for months and the day I check for videos you just happen so to have uploaded the day before

[@notimportant8643]

Remember learning the first 15 seconds of the song awhile ago, out of everything I’ve ever attempted to play this is by far the hardest

[@Kata_rocks]

One of my fave the smiths songs!❤ Def gonna learn this!!!

[@wassbot]

if you don't feel like tuning up strings - i suggest tuning to standard in A432hz and using a capo on 2!

[@StuartHammill-n2n]

Get in Marty perfect

[@randomchannel3795]

marty u da goat fr🗣️🗣️

[@Stomzytroop]

Great work man

[@splitzerx570]

Hey Marty, awesome guitar lesson. Another Smiths tune that would be awesome to see is This Night Has Opened My Eyes, it’s such a great tune!

[@jcburger733]

Hey Marty, thank you for the This Charming Man guitar lesson. Appreciated!!

[@cuellar23]

Great lesson! Johnny Marr is so great!

[@Il_Signor_Rivara]

Hi Marty, thank you and greetings from italy👋👋👋🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹

[@joshnorko5586]

Good stuff Marty! Thanks man

[@dmac3316]

Awesome. Thanks Marty!!

[@johnjohnny2905]

Made my day !

[@markarbanasin4]

Marty is hitting the gems!

[@Ellz66]

I love Marrs playing. Can you please do Barbarism begins at home? Tbh, the Bass in that song is so good too...

[@trontosaurusrex9532]

Thanks for this Charming Marty!

[@charlietrinnaman6722]

Been waiting a month since you announced this

[@BernalAutoStyle]

Marty did an in depth Social D now the Smiths? Yes!!!!

[@HalftimeHorror]

Scary how every time I think of a song I wanna learn to play, Marty uploads it the next day

[@Elodie830]

I ❤ Marty for many moons. You r a great teacher. Im killing my fingers trying to learn blackbird. Should I get extra light strings? I have a Martin d1r

[@edwardpoe7323]

The SMITHS YEAH!!!! do London too

[@j.hammer573]

I appreciate this video. Johnny Mar is challenging guitarist to learn. Keep them coming. FYI I saw him explain the inspiration for Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Now. Years ago he purchased a red 335 very similar to your signature model. Just saying…

[@Kai-rm2nz]

By the way if you want it to sound right tune to A = 432Hz plus a Capo on the 2nd fret.

[@Evs78101]

Dang. 22 minutes almost. This is gonna be good

[@thebluesengineer6493]

Well done greetings from germany🖤❤💛

[@AmanMahmood-o8e]

This man reads minds

[@FancymanVR1]

Hey Marty was wondering if you could try to learn hoobastank running away

[@jordantaylor4992]

Please make another smiths tutorial!

[@StokesMusicStudiosOnline]

Sweet!

[@jd0808jd]

Brilliant!

[@Calls1gnMustang]

FINALLLYYYYYYYY WOOO

[@adventureswithmarco2225]

I would play this song tonight

[@emiruzun705]

Fck yeah finally some Smiths!!!

[@dannylgriffin]

I'm impressed that you are doing Johnny Marr over some horrible song from Angus Young.

[@bend1499]

The Smith's music is one of the greatest things ever created by humanity...like if Aliens were to look back at our civliation in 5,000 years, I hope this is the first song they hear.

[@timothyprothero7314]

Hey Marty, I was hoping you could do a tutorial on Jimmy Buffett’s new song bubbles up?

[@greekalex570]

Could you do a lesson for ‘last night I dreamt that somebody loved me’ please sir, legendary bit of guitar work by Marr

[@felixpeltier6164]

Awesome! Now how about Charmless Man by Blur? 😉

[@jackroberts2704]

PUNCTURED BICYCLEEEEE

[@elineim6382]

Great video🤘! Could you possibly make a tutorial for the solo from "Hotel California"?

[@Ripred0219]

God dayum the beginning was quite rough Marty ahahaha

[@sahlabdullah9107]

Tq sifu❤

[@paulerxx]

Capo on 2nd, no? Unless you tune up to F#, which Johny does.

[@MartyMusic]

all you have to do is watch past the intro of this video and I will explain it. But yes, I tuned up. on the recording, it's not quite a whole step up so you actually have to tune by ear to make it sound exactly like the recording.

[@paulerxx]

@@MartyMusic Gotcha, thank you for the reply. I only listened to the intro and could tell it sounded "off" from the studio version.

[@chairmankaga101]

Ooh! Now that we have this lesson… This Is a Low by Blur. Seriously. Check it out.

[@thomassmiththekingbee]

The opening riff sounds similar to Surfin' USA- The Beach Boys for me

[@EMatthewCady]

My dream is to one day play this song.

[@dqena]

Heyy marty i was wondering if you can do a lesson on the song “Move with the season by Temples”

[@matthewmaki]

My telecaster wants me to learn this song

[@lt.reubenrozeyt5716]

🎶I learn would learn this song, but I haven't got any strings to break.🎶

[@v2kb754]

“Even Johnny Marr can’t play as well as Johnny Marr”

[@timjoseph887]

What happened to your black star amp?

[@albertfernandez9934]

You Just Dont Care Santana I !!!! CMON MARTY

[@NoahOlive]

Are the Ernie Ball 7 gauge strings light enough?

[@MartyMusic]

ya

[@NoahOlive]

@@MartyMusic thanks!

[@paulgordon6949]

They don't come much lighter than that, so I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that yeah, they should be light enough. Good luck, it's a tricky song to learn but it will be worth it!

[@NoahOlive]

@@paulgordon6949 thanks! I've definitely had fun so far

[@andtheywillknowusbyourname5511]

Tune it up a half step?

[@paulcartwright2810]

Damm I'm too lazy to restring a guitar with light strings and tune it up.....he'll I can barely be arsed to change my strings unless they snap or are like 2 years old and sound out of tune...guess I'll have to stick to my half baked capo at 2nd fret method.....that said you really nail this....didn't noel gallagher say once that " Johnny's that good that not even johnny can play like johnny marr"...lol

[@finleyweeks]

Wish I could get a guitar to start learning hopefully with some Christmas money I can get one I found a good second hand strat copy for £45 and a good amp for £25 if I have enough I might pick up the £120 kit on this other KZbinrs website but I don’t think I’ll get close to that

[@paullawson8610]

You need a rickenbacker for the authentic tone

[@MartyMusic]

oh ya?

[@paullawson8610]

@MartyMusic johnny Marr was playing a ricky in this charming man video don't know what he used on the record

[@johnarmitage1213]

Johnny used a telecaster for the recording. Video was just something they knocked out quickly for The Tube.

[@paulgordon6949]

Sounds pretty damn good on the telecaster to me

[@alexmaga9655]

"Tune it higher", sorry my floyd rose guitar said no

[@RITCHIESADDENS]

I’ll just learn boys don’t cry

[@jajo7770]

tried tuning up a half step and my string snapped...

[@MattBargain]

Smiths is so hard to play. The lesson sounds quite off IMO and Marty struggles with it too. It’s just a very odd way of playing guitar with all these high notes. Makes me appreciate Johnny Marr even more.

[@BbaattJjuuaann]

My strings broke while tuning it

[@rockitrockit8517]

Hey MARR tea ... see wot I did there ... ???

[@kevinguitar22]

Que afinacion es?

[@Cacatron]

Oh oh…. Marty is struggling a lil bit…😅🫣🥸

[@lt.reubenrozeyt5716]

I thought indie guitar was supposed to be easy

[@BernalAutoStyle]

I don’t even think Johnny Marr plays this the same way twice 😂😂. Yikes.

[@jcrALLday]

Too hard
