  • "Cemetry Gates" is a 1986 song by English alternative rock band the Smiths, for their third album, The Queen Is Dead. Written by Morrissey and Johnny Marr, the song centres around a guitar riff that Marr had initially thought was too uninteresting to base a song around. However, Morrissey liked it and convinced Marr that they could complete the song. Morrissey's lyrics on the song reflect his memories of walking in graveyards in Manchester and jokingly comment on plagiarism in his song lyrics. "Cemetry Gates" was released as a B-side to the band's 1986 single "Ask". It has since seen critical acclaim for Morrissey's humorous lyrics and Marr's gentle guitar line. (en)
