Nowhere Fast!

Something about "Da-lee-da-la-da-dum"
 
Good thread...:)

The Headmasters Ritual of course...:)
 
Does the little YELP! in Barbarism count as a Yodel?
Or am I insane to even ask?

There's a good few minutes of yodelling from about 3.30 seconds in, where he goes, 'Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, no-o-o'.

My favourite probably is Barbarism Begins at Home.

The Headmaster Ritual is my favourite at the moment (especially on who put the m.. watching it too much :))

Agreed -- it is good that the lads were able to put on the correct amount of delay so he is able to match the volume of the original recording. I suppose Boz controls Morrissey's mic effects?

i think his voice dominates in this version, while in earlier recordings it's the other way around - the yodell is simply to quiet and fades to quickly.
 
The Headmaster Ritual! But Barbarism comes closely after that.

Morrissey is one of the singers tend to yodel in his songs which adds some interesting element to his work.

In here I'd like you to add your thoughts of yodel in Smiths songs.

My favourite is Barbarism Begins At Home, but I accidentally voted The Headmaster Ritual. :o


I'll post Morrissey's solo yodel thread later.

good choice, in 'thorn' there's too much yodel and oowooh

headmasters is absolutely the best yodel which fits:guitar:
