I often experience feelings of anxiety before arriving at work. Pretty much every day for the last two years I've listened to this once before getting out of the car, and each time I hear these lyrics and the melody, my whole nervous system relaxes and I show up to my crew full of hope and positivity. Thank you Johnny.
@@HEATSEEKER00 I'm not weak, everyone experiences anxiety, Mike Tyson, Jon jones etc... they've openly admitted it. You've obviously lived an easy life up to now but it will get harder. p.s. I'd tell you to your face your a bell end.
Michael Adair - Seriously, I actually started crying involuntarily first time I heard this song, totally caught me off guard, I'm not a weepy guy, but Marr's playing is that rare blend of Heart and technical skill that really can't be faked or imitated, nobody I can think of even comes close these days, not even Dave Navarro.
Connor Hutcheon, as you may know all too well, Johnny Marr credits Jansch as his single most major influence. He is extremely talented as well. Long live Johnny Marr. He’ll save rock n’ roll.
yall should listen to his son Nile. Sounds just like Johnny (guitar wise). Man Made is his band. He also has stuff under Nile Marr. It's real good too!
The sound from this studio is amazing - so clear that you can pick out each instrument and vocal. Kudos to the sound crew! The instrumental section at 4:00 is sublime!
same Nathan. its become a go to feel good song. he is unfazed as the lights go out, laughs. the man is just cool. we know in retrospect just HOW cool he is. the man is a gtr Wizard. no one like him..
Absolutely love the song and the performance! Only Johnny Marr could pull off that awesome jangly rhythm and then bust out a solo with a behind the nut bend. What a tasteful player!!!
Flipper I think the comparison still stands, in that Marr made about as much of an impact on indie/alternative music in the 80s and Jimmy Page did on heavy rock music in the 70s. It's not so much a direct comparison to Page, more about how influential Marr is.
@@PantheonLincoln ?? Don't get it. Page hasn't play live since 2008 and doesn't seem to do anything, but remaster led zeppelin -maybe he's retired unofficially. Johnny is always busy moving forward with is solo career, creating new music, or as a guitar for hire etc.
Morrissey got the headlines, but we know who the force behind the window dressing, don't we? Some of Marr's best, thanks for posting. Amongst my all-time faves
This has to be the best version live of this song . The sound quality is amazing everything sounds alive you can here each instrument very clearly also this is the best vocally I’ve herd him sing this song . Outstanding ✊
I definitely recommend it. I'm taking forever to read it because I'm taking notes about all the things I want to look up eventually...I'm up to 20 pages and just reached this section today.
Marvellous!!!, one of the greatest of the Brit Pop...there are so many music magicians that It would unfair not mention them all. Morrisey ...Paul Weller ...Oasis...Stereophonics and so many others. Very grafetul for being aware of you art and all that It implies, and above all, the feeling if being alive listening to your songs.
Left home a mystery Leave school for poetry I say goodbye to them & me Mission velocity It made me just run faster now I'm gonna take it all Drive around Make up my mind With the windows down I'm in something alright I know I got to live it out uh-oh I can't resist Net force zero oh no It turned out like I said it would Can I get the world right here? Step out to symphonies They play on for you and me When we faced that July down In uniforms One and one, no wrong We chased that summer down I'm in something alright I know I got to live it out uh-oh I can't resist Net force zero oh no It turned out like I said it would Can I get the world right here? I can't resist Net force zero oh no It turned out like I said it would Can I get the world right here? Hello you mystery Mission velocity Here comes our poetry New town velocity THE SOLO IS GOOD !!!!
Saw him back in 2013 HOB Anaheim.....He was so good....I consider him a Legend.....He's played in The Smiths , New Order , The The , and Paul McCartney band , just to name a few.....Not to many like him.....
What a wonderful voice he has everytime i listen to his music, seems i discover something else i love about Johnny Marr. He keeps making music I'll keep buying them CD'S
I can listen to this song over and over and never get sick of it. What a genius Johnny is, this melody is up there with the best songs he's written. When he hits the guitar pedal at the 4 minute mark - absolute gold.
keyserdurden - My wife went out of town for the weekend, I was actually up all night listening to Marr in my headphones, realized that I would actually had probably chosen this over sex tonight even if she'd still been home (and that's no shot at my wife, I couldn't want a better woman, zero complaints after almost 25 years, she still steals my heart every time I see her face!), seriously on another level. I remember a few times playing, when I was younger and did little else, when the world seemed to dissolve away and my guitar seemed to sing on its own, almost as if it colluded with my Soul to take over my fingers, a feeling beyond merely physical bliss...listening to Marr brings that same feeling back, a beautiful melancholy that can't be put into words. I'm going to light a candle for him and give special thanks to God for giving the world Johnny Marr and his music the next time I pray!

Hello you mystery Mission velocity Here comes our poetry New town velocity Songwriters: James Doviak / Johnny Marr
that moment at 4:27, when Johnny starts singing that "hello you mystery, mission velocity" part is absolutely amazing, sounds like an hommage to Morrissey. :)
+Gleb Alexeev I wonder if Morrissey has heard this song and thought the same? If this is an "homage" to Moz, then he crafted a beautifully written one...Morrissey should be impressed.
Saw Johnny back in 2013 and just 5 weeks ago at the old and New HOB in Anaheim......Very amazing guitarist and songwriter....A frickin Wizard with an axe......
I think his vocals are very good....i was suprised.. .i love this band just the way it is.....and the solo music he has released has been dam good..!!!
GenevaRob72 - I still cherish my "Electronic" CD's, not as Smith-y as I really wanted, but still embedded into my psyche. This is as close to a New Smiths as we'll get, but it's so damn good I hardly miss Moz.
I heard this song early last year in Fazoli's Italian restaurant over their music system. Had to find it after that. Luckily, I could make out some lyrics...enough to Google it. This is an excellent version of it. It makes me think of the 80s.
i believe he will be on a northeast tour and playing boston in support of a new release and cant wait to see some of the great songs live- even if to just hear new town velocity- as performed here- the trip will be well worth it- k.b.

Nobody crafts rolling guitar melodies like Johnny Fucking Marr. This is so good it hurts..
Michael Adair - Seriously, I actually started crying involuntarily first time I heard this song, totally caught me off guard, I'm not a weepy guy, but Marr's playing is that rare blend of Heart and technical skill that really can't be faked or imitated, nobody I can think of even comes close these days, not even Dave Navarro.
I think the only person I've heard that has a similar rollin technique is bert jansch. You can hear the influence definitely
Agreed. Nobody, does it better than Johnny Marr.
Connor Hutcheon, as you may know all too well, Johnny Marr credits Jansch as his single most major influence. He is extremely talented as well. Long live Johnny Marr. He’ll save rock n’ roll.
fucking?
I much prefer this live. The guitar melodies are clearer and his vocals sound more raw and original. Beautiful.
Yess! This version is better than the studio track IMO.
Totally agree.
Agreed!
An absolute classic, can't understand why more people haven't viewed it
His guitar tone is futuristic and retro, at the same time. Incredible. So relaxed, and joyful, one of the coolest people on the planet.
wish I'd wrote that.
yall should listen to his son Nile. Sounds just like Johnny (guitar wise). Man Made is his band. He also has stuff under Nile Marr. It's real good too!
Got to meet and talk with him for 15 minutes and he is exactly as cool as you’d imagine. Truly a living legend who has influenced so many
Beautiful wonderful song. Give us more, Johnny Marr!
his most Smiths-like track. Simply genius.
Johnny's reaction once the lights go back on is about as sweet as it gets...
+GenevaRob72 great sense of humor
He doesn't skip a beat either...so smooth..
not much reaction there really.. lol
maybe if we turn off the lights he will make a mistake... never!
@@varosan And the beat goes on and on and on....love it.
The sound from this studio is amazing - so clear that you can pick out each instrument and vocal. Kudos to the sound crew! The instrumental section at 4:00 is sublime!
Jesus, what a guitarist. Creative uplifting rock at its best.
This is up there with the best stuff he wrote.
Whenever I hear this song, I feel like everything is gonna be ok. Thank you.
Feel the same
same Nathan. its become a go to feel good song. he is unfazed as the lights go out, laughs. the man is just cool. we know in retrospect just HOW cool he is. the man is a gtr Wizard. no one like him..
From now on i am gonna think that way
soothing brilliant song
My favorite song during lockdown. It flows so brilliantly.
How have I never heard this song before?! Big fan of Marr but only listen to the Smiths.. This song is just as good as their old hits imo.
Listen the "Call the Comet" album
This song makes me want to just get up and enjoy life.
Absolutely love the song and the performance! Only Johnny Marr could pull off that awesome jangly rhythm and then bust out a solo with a behind the nut bend. What a tasteful player!!!
Johnny Marr - the Jimmy Page of alternative music.
Flipper I think the comparison still stands, in that Marr made about as much of an impact on indie/alternative music in the 80s and Jimmy Page did on heavy rock music in the 70s. It's not so much a direct comparison to Page, more about how influential Marr is.
Damn straight he is...
Jimmy Page, the Johnny Marr of heavy rock music.
fuck you
@@PantheonLincoln ?? Don't get it. Page hasn't play live since 2008 and doesn't seem to do anything, but remaster led zeppelin -maybe he's retired unofficially. Johnny is always busy moving forward with is solo career, creating new music, or as a guitar for hire etc.
Gorgeous melody line in this song, as strong as anything he did before.
He has really hit form with his latest album. Embracing the old smiths and electronic sound as an influence and then creating something new.
Morrissey got the headlines, but we know who the force behind the window dressing, don't we? Some of Marr's best, thanks for posting. Amongst my all-time faves
This has to be the best version live of this song . The sound quality is amazing everything sounds alive you can here each instrument very clearly also this is the best vocally I’ve herd him sing this song . Outstanding ✊
"Leave school for poetry" has to be one of the most meaningful lyric lines in all of music.
mershark what does it mean?
Johnny explains it in his book Set the Boy Free - it was about leaving school to become a musician.
Ah okay, thanks :) definitely giving that a read!
I definitely recommend it. I'm taking forever to read it because I'm taking notes about all the things I want to look up eventually...I'm up to 20 pages and just reached this section today.
Nice one :) i'll definitely give it a go, interesting guy
Greatest Marr track since The Smiths and it equals his work there. Adore it.
I like this melody,johnny Matt is my favorite guitarist,my guitar hero
When you juggle simplicity and gusto you're in a sphere of your own. That's just where Johnny Marr is.
Marvellous!!!, one of the greatest of the Brit Pop...there are so many music magicians that It would unfair not mention them all. Morrisey ...Paul Weller ...Oasis...Stereophonics and so many others. Very grafetul for being aware of you art and all that It implies, and above all, the feeling if being alive listening to your songs.
Johnny Marr. What a song. WOW!
Left home a mystery
Leave school for poetry
I say goodbye to them & me
Mission velocity
It made me just run faster now
I'm gonna take it all
Drive around
Make up my mind
With the windows down
I'm in something alright I know
I got to live it out uh-oh
I can't resist
Net force zero oh no
It turned out like I said it would
Can I get the world right here?
Step out to symphonies
They play on for you and me
When we faced that July down
In uniforms
One and one, no wrong
We chased that summer down
I'm in something alright I know
I got to live it out uh-oh
I can't resist
Net force zero oh no
It turned out like I said it would
Can I get the world right here?
I can't resist
Net force zero oh no
It turned out like I said it would
Can I get the world right here?

Thankyou Johnny Marr and thankyou Nathan Newman! God bless you guys!
Such a positive ditty from the old country thank you Johhny
I'm just really thankful. Yes, yes ... how does music do this? I am somewhere else, someone else when listening to Johnny Marr.
Johnny boy always well dressed to kill. this man always had taste. pure class.
Hello mr. Can I have your number? To me you are very interesting and handsome! ❤️
+Jacinta Rodríguez you already have my life with that beautiful face ;)
Marco Torrecilla This man is Uber cool
My favorite song from "the messenger".
that intro is priceless.
Another great song from the God-like Genius that is Johnny Marr.....
Pure display of Intertwining rolling Melodies. Marr painting another masterpiece. Hang this up in the Louvre. Brilliant
#JohnnyMarr is a legend of the industry. Plain and simple.
Beautiful guitar tone and riff…It's like a The Smiths…I remembered…awesome Johnny♥Thanks!!
Thank You!! Johnny Mar!!
The emotion in his riffs/melodies is indescribable. Tears. Just saw him in a small venue and he had 1000 people hanging on every chord.
I've been listening to this for a few years now. I just play it most days. It's so brilliant. He's a master of his art. Johnny the guitar god.
The great follower; the great sideman: Johnny "f***in'" Marr! Legendary!
One of Johnny Marrs finest...sheer class !!!
One of the aspects I most admire about Johnny is he is down to earth. Solid bloke.
Omg❤❤❤❤❤❤
Coolest uncle on the planet 🙌😎😎
This song brings me hope. Thank you Johnny Marr.
What an epic tune, nice one Mr. Marr
Saw him back in 2013 HOB Anaheim.....He was so good....I consider him a Legend.....He's played in The Smiths , New Order , The The , and Paul McCartney band , just to name a few.....Not to many like him.....
+Mark Kendrick Electronic and his current solo-stuff has been my all-time favorite of his side-projects...
He makes the Jag sound alive, which is an art in itself; some players can, most can't.
What a wonderful voice he has everytime i listen to his music, seems i discover something else i love about Johnny Marr. He keeps making music I'll keep buying them CD'S
The inimitable sweet layers of Marr
Such a tight group. Top of my post-Covid gig list.
Next Friday Hammersmith. Can’t wait 👍
Last Friday Hammersmith. Brilliant
lovely song . respect to jonny and them musicians.
I love this❤ in fact everything he does, just brilliant !
Wonderfull vey nice, antologic! Thanks!!!
I can listen to this song over and over and never get sick of it. What a genius Johnny is, this melody is up there with the best songs he's written. When he hits the guitar pedal at the 4 minute mark - absolute gold.
Ahh that sweet, jangly guitar. The essence of the Smiths, it's almost orgasmic.

And Noel gallagher!
I love you Johnny you are a legend ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
new age smiths, love it, crushes anything today.
shune84 - Absof&%king agree, he kills it here, been waiting for music like this for almost thirty years, now.
Fantastic program. Love this song.
Excellent drummer
Sounds like the first time I heard them fresh. Just really love this music.
Thank you Johnny Marr. You deliver this song with grace and class.
This actually sounds better than the album cut, awesome music.
Johnny has a wonderful way of summarizing a day in the life with lyrically charming inspirational melodies.. well done, incomparable solo, too.
Genius!!
I love how looks like he's not evan trying to playing the guitar so incredibly out of this world !
This fella is a legend. So down to earth.. brilliant man
Keep coming back to the intro. Brilliant
This is nice. Way nice. Listening to JM at the gym. This tune makes me happy.
Sensacional ...... Jonny Marr forever

I'm going to buy your guitar for sure 😁
Fantastic live sound, lovely blend of voices.
Can’t wait to see him in concert at the Crystal Ballroom in September. What a cool head!
Saw Johnny back in 2013 and just 5 weeks ago at the old and New HOB in Anaheim......Very amazing guitarist and songwriter....A frickin Wizard with an axe......
love love love
There is a light that goes out sometimes 🎶 ...
what a tune
I think his vocals are very good....i was suprised.. .i love this band just the way it is.....and the solo music he has released has been dam good..!!!
+td harley It's really too bad that he didn't start his solo work earlier...However, his work with Electronic and The The was amazing as well...
GenevaRob72 - I still cherish my "Electronic" CD's, not as Smith-y as I really wanted, but still embedded into my psyche. This is as close to a New Smiths as we'll get, but it's so damn good I hardly miss Moz.
I love you Jonnhy thanks for your art 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Possibly his best solo track, gorgeous melody and lyric
Boy do I love this tune - classic Marr ;)
Pure class I love you Johnny ❤️
Can't believe they are all this good!
Come home again soon JohnJoe. (Almighty pub sesh 4th July Longford. Ask for Dave)
A rare Johnny laugh at 1:05 because the stage lights suddenly went off then on mid-song. Soak it in, people.
It was quite adorable. :')
Johnny could play with his fingers off!
Suck it up buttercup!
Classic moment loved it 🤣
This song changed how I played guitar.
Who has disliked this? Must have shit in their ears. One of my favourite songs, never tire of listening to this. 👍🏻
He always reminds me of Al Pacino from Heat for some reason. Bad joke aside, this is a great rendition of the song. Sound quality is excellent.
Damn that's a great song.
Mano, o Johnny Marr é muito bom!!!
I heard this song early last year in Fazoli's Italian restaurant over their music system. Had to find it after that. Luckily, I could make out some lyrics...enough to Google it. This is an excellent version of it. It makes me think of the 80s.
