Spirit Power: The Best Of Johnny Marr is set for release on November 3 via BMG. A curated collection of tracks from the last ten years of Johnny’s solo career, and also featuring two brand new songs titled “Somewhere” and “The Answer”.
“Somewhere” is currently released and is a song Johnny wrote whilst on tour with The Killers and Blondie in 2022. “I’ve played a lot of arenas over the years, and in terms of songwriting, there’s nowhere to hide. For a song to work, it has to be a banger,” says Marr. “I know it’s almost uncool to think in those terms, but I grew up in a house where my parents listened to Motown, where you couldn’t get a song released if it wasn’t full of hooks.”
