As a British person, thinking Arctic Monkeys is American is crazy too me considering they were aggressively ladish English with their first couple of albums
And all their albums have a very clear english accent. He's just saying it to get engagement and more views and it's working.
Or he's braindead
One of the strongest northern English singing accent I have heard in decades.
And the fact he sings in a Sheffield accent
the English accent he tried to do Oml no
It’s wild that Americans can’t tell the accent in artic monkeys oasis and radio head😭
You worked with Andre 3000 and technically the Gorillaz, that’s fucking epic bro didn’t expect that 😂
Are/do you get any royalties ?
You forget that much American folk music has it's roots in British and Irish folk music. I often hear Americans confused by British folk music, often thinking it 'sounds American'. Nope, it's the other way around. :)
No surprise that Matt Bellamy from Muse is musically gifted his dad was in The Tornados who realised a tune called Telstar in the 60's which hit Number 1.
Arctic Monkeys, if you had heard them speak you’d definitely know they aren’t from New York. They have broad Sheffield accents.
They sound sooo Sheffield when they sing even
@@Iamtheliquorvery much so in the earlier stuff
@@Iamtheliquor I was thinking that as well!!!
Yeah their one of very few bands/singers to actually sing in their accent and not in an American accent like lots of other British bands/singers
I used to service Chris Wolstenholme's Jaguar xjs car, the bass guitarist of Muse, when i worked for a Jaguar franchise in Devonsouth west England, i saw Matt Bellamy's guitar getting repaired at Mansons guitar shop, Matt bought the company and the guitar making side.
Bro just drops in he worked with ANDRE f%"King 3000!!😁👍
I cant believe you thought Arctic Monkeys were American. They have the thickest Sheffield accents! You to watch the video of them playing live at Glastonbury their amazing!
We do know about the banjo and we also know that Mumford and Sons are not bluegrassy in any way at all. Banjo does not mean bluegrass.
Rudyard Kipling wrote a poem about the banjo. Just saying.
Muse should've been top 4 at least. We heared everything from Muse. I mean piano concerto, classical, rock, punk, heavy metal. Best live act ever. All these years from the 90s until now.
George Formby was an expert on the ukelele and banjo.
The Black and White Minstrels played banjos too.
The Sopranos theme song was done by a British band called 'Alabama 3'. Not sure if they ever made it over there but listening to their stuff you would never guess that they are from Brixton London. Woke up this morning is off 'Exile on Cold harbour Lane', a really great album. Check it out JJ.
Love MUSE & recently saw them in Manchester Arena on their latest tour ❤️🎶🎸
i was there but it was Simulation Theory tour, greatest concert ive ever seen
Radiohead's latest iteration- The Smile - are currently touring. Saw them on Sunday night in London. They were epic!
They are fantastic
YOOOO ANDRE'S PERSONAL ENGINEER?!?!?! Man, i knew you were a really chill dude, but you are next level cool.
"Please forgive my accent" - only if you promise never to do it again
Folk music isnt really a usa thing and even the southern usa is heavily influenced by british and irish culture, theres a video showing how the southern drawl is just a slurred british accent, the term folk music was first used to describe traditonal music in england in the 1800s, mumford and songs literally sing with british accents same with artic monkeys haha
In german too the word volk means 'the people as a whole'. Irish music uses the banjo a lot, but bands like zeppelin do too.
Yes folk is an old english word that hasn't changed for thousands of years. And yes english, scottish and irish folk music is very popular and way more popular than americsn folk.
One of simon and garfunkels biggest songs is an english folk song. Most americana folk and country has roots in english and scottish folk.
Yep my boomer Dad loved Radiohead “Creep”. He’d turn it up on the car radio. I felt embarrassed when I alighted at high school.
I'd think your Dad was Gen X... the Coolest Gen!! 😂
Chances are he was cooler than you
Gutted I wasn't able to see Coldplay on their recent stadium tour - the show looked massive & incredible!
YES JJ!!! I recommended you watch this video (quite a few times). I knew you'd be happy with the no.1 band.
Music isn't so much my thing (I'm a film fanatic) so a few of these bands I hadn't heard of neither, also I thought Mumford and sons were American too.
Thanks for reacting to this vid. I am a happy bunny right now. I'll be even happier if you react to carrot in a box and carrot in a box the rematch though 👍👍👍
Having watched a few American reactors being surprised that non American musicians are not American, makes me realise a lot of Americans just dont recognise that other countries have talented artists.
I agree with what you said about Blur.
Alex Turner does not sound american when he sings. . Not to my ear, hes v Yorkshire
He sounds very Yorkshire.
He is the Sheffield Elvis though, thank you very much!
The funny thing is an advert popped up midway through and it had Florence and the machine playing.
Nailed the Florence impression 👌 😂
I’ve never heard of the band Alt J, and I’m British.
Same here
Billy Connolly plays banjo very well, and don't forget the theme to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy uses banjo,
Yeah, but it's by The Eagles. An American band.
ruclips.net/video/wZdZKolMIl0/видео.html
The theme does, but it’s also by American band the Eagles
Yeah, most people wish Coldplay never existed. 😬
@@rob_in_stowmarket_uk People who like jumping on hate bandwagons do anyway.
Mudford & Son was a name of a fish and chip shop near me in thurrock essex uk
You need to check out 'Nothing But Thieves', they're like a cross between Radiohead and Muse 👌🏻
Gorrilaz, Andre 3000 and The Walking Dead. Man you've been about.
Have you listened to Ren on his own or with The Big Push? Ren is a multi talented phenomenon!
Glad to see a renegade spreading the word 🐇 🕳 gang lol
Glad to see a fellow renegade spreading the word.
🐇 🕳 gang lol
great video
If you're into your drumming you should check out Artic Monkeys 'Brianstorm' track
Mumford and Sons with Mr Carey Mulligan as lead singer
Bear's Den from Londonare a bit Mumford too. Def worth a listen!!
I remember Coldplay performing at the Reebok Stadium in Horwich, Bolton in July 2005. I live 6 miles away and could hear every song 😂😂.
I feel sorry for you.
@@knowlesy3915 🤣🤣🤣
Check out the West country's Alex Lipinski for more Americana. He's played and recorded with Bonehead and his last album was released at one of the Gallagher Bros shops in London. very talented young man. He was also support for Marc Almond on his recent tour.
Englishmen with polish and irish names making americana music, sad.
I guess that's typical of people who work woth oasis tho.
have you ever tried the OK Rainbows mix of radiohead, if you play ok computer and in rainbows alternating tracks starting at airbag but keeping karma police and fitter happier together, it creates a super album that fits together seamlessly. there is a lot of thinking that this was intentional. if you like radiohead I recommend Steven Wilson/ Porcupine tree and XTC who also inspired both these bands and Blur
Please don’t do that accent again 🤣😜
We all grew up on American music and TV but sometimes we get acts from the US that couldn't quite make in their own country and become household names in the UK. Here is one of my favourites 'Seasick Steve' and I don't think he's known too well in the US but has done pretty well here. ruclips.net/video/vkISiokvFTQ/видео.htmlsi=KfdbDqT3HZMBaQIc
Watch out for the British Band,"New Hope Club" already based in LA. Number One Hit in 10 countries.
I never knew a broad and clear Sheffield accent was so similar to a New York one... "Yeah I'd love to tell you all my problem, I'm not from New York City I'm from (somewhere close to) Rotherham..." 😂
Tbf the lyrics are "you're not from New York City you're from Rotherham" and the song is called Fake Tales of San Francisco. Pretty easy to see why someone could think they're American if that's your example
Wow Andre 3000's personal engineer,impressive, Andre is a very talented guy and obviously so are you, you kept that f ing quiet lol 👍🎶
I live in the Town where Radiohead are from, Abingdon. Its not strange a "Boomer" likes them, the first album was like '92/93?
Er, i've just turned 50 and i love Radiohead (but then again I've been through every great phase of British music...well minus the 60's)
we gonna need a story time video about working with Andre3000! please
If you love Radiohead,check out a Scottish band from the 80’s called The Blue Nile,and especially their album “Hats”
The production is Steely Dan standard,and musicianship is off the charts.
Thoroughly recommended.
Guessing they didn't have both Gorillaz and Blur so that the guy presenting didn't butcher Damon Albarn's name for two entries.
P.S. Blur > Oasis
Your reaction to Mumford and Sons is exactly the same as my reaction - many years ago - to the top 70s Swamp-Americana band Creedence Clearwater Revival being from California. And yes, Radiohead are brilliant but do "borrow" from older songs occasionally (the middle eight from "Creep" is The Hollies "All I Need is the Air That I Breathe", for instance). But despite that, they're an excellent band (and hey, us boomers have good musical taste!)
Bring me the horizon are my favourite band I’ve seen them 6 times the first was when I was 13. I’ve also seen the 1975 a couple of times and I’ve just seen muse last year they were class
the first arctic monkeys album is one of the strongest debuts ever. it's a masterpiece.
Lol casually name dropping 2 legends 😂 gonna check that out after btw
Your British accent is hilarious. Don't stop. 😂 You sound like a 1950's Cockney. And then, when you flip back to LA, all I hear is Michael Jackson. LOL.
Anybody who thinks that oasis just copied the Beatles then you clearly have never listened to much of the Beatles or oasis music.
Agree 100% Love Oasis, love The Beatles. The only band that sounded like The Beatles was The Beatles, the only band that sounded like Oasis was Oasis, completely didn't sound
Exactly. Especially the first three albums which are the most well known. I mean how many Beatles songs sound like Morning Glory, Bring It On Down, DYWIM? Etc. How many Oasis songs sound like Love Me Do, Can't Buy Me Love, or Dear Prudence?? It's ridiculous
Contentious arguments with my kids in our house as I’m definitely an original blur fan for entertainment value and think oasis a tribute act with a couple of good tunes. Nowhere near the likes of, stone roses or the Jam etc, but they borrow a lot from them too in terms of style. No crime in doing this though. Just think oasis brought nothing new or groundbreaking to UK music. Don’t shout!! Sorry.
@@juliemoran926 well they clearly did influence a lot in British culture from music to fashion to attitude. Hence why you get people like serge from kasabian saying if there was no oasis then there wouldn't be kasabian
To quote Arctic Monkeys a couple of times:
“You’re not from New York City you’re from Rotherham”
“I just wanted to be one of The Strokes”.
You’re not getting much more British than ‘94-96 Oasis and 2005-2007 Arctic Monkeys😂if someone asked me what to be a ‘British lad’ was, it’d be pictures of them. I mean, AM headlining Glasto in 2007 while wearing tracksuit bottoms/jeans and trainers? British AF
One band that should have been mentioned: Nothing but Thieves. Tracks to check out: Itch, I'm not made by design, Amsterdam, if I get high, lover please stay, Gods, Ban all the music. Their lead singer (Conor Mason) has a once in a generation quality voice. They've overtaken U2 as my favorite band (and I say that as an Irishman!)
Amsterdam is a fucking masterpiece
Oasis have like 4 songs that sound like the Beatles.
To be fair even if you heard Alex Turner (Arctic Monkeys) speak, you'd struggle to place where he's from. The rest. of them are so Yorkshire it hurts.
Modern UK bands - qualifying time limit from 90's onwards. Yeah, 'cos 40 years ago is so modern.
Marcus Mumford was born in California, but moved to England as a baby.
yes brits know banjo well they did.george formby kept the brits entertained during ww2.there are two groups of people that play banjo some of which is george's songs.try when i'm cleaning windows.
the lead mumford is married to actress cary mulligan who was up for an oscar at the weekend.
matt bellamy was engaged to kate hudson and had a kid with her.
Still remember when I went to machine head. Bring me the horizon was one of the opening acts and they got booed so much
Playing fast and loose with the word modern here mojo
The best/worst example is Def Leppard - they sound 'American' but they're from bloody Sheffield!
I think Stereophonics should be in the top 10
When I watch a list like this I realise I know nothing about modern groups.
I do like some of Muse and Gorillaz songs though. I only liked two Oasis songs, Half The World Away and The Importance of Being Idle. My musical tastes are rock and metal, mainly Led Zeppelin, The Doors and Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Great reaction, wishing you well.
Matt Bellamy from Muse was married to the daughter of Goldie Horn.
The first two albums of Arctic Monkeys are brilliant. Also check out Royal Blood, great band
how on earth did you not hear Alex Turner had a thick northern accent??
The only band I can listen to for two hours is MUSE, they are the best, by far!
Muse and Gorillaz are definitely my favorites!
That's a wicked thing to have on your CV, respect. Never got Oasis either. Your impression of Florence was spot on, atonal blert.
Me and my daughter saw Arctic Monkeys live last May. They were brilliant.
I think people forget where country folk derives from.
BUT....U2 are not British, they are Irish. Lol at your Mockney Cockney accent for all the bands. Chris Martin comes from the South West and the Manc and Sheffield accents are totally different too. Enjoying your channel
Nobody said U2 were British, they said Coldplay was like a British U2.
The XX are so good, please listen to The XX. Your ears with thank you. Extremely minimalist, soulful indie.
Trad jazz has used the banjo for ever Check out Lonnie Donnigan on the banjo.
Alex even sounds British when he sings 😂❤
Nah. He's not from London so he doesn't sound British to Americans
I agree with you JJ about Oasis! I also find Coldplay a bit shallow. Just sayin’ don’t kill me😊
That English accent is a cross between South African and Australian
You definitely need to listen to the Arctic Monkeys - I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor is one of my favourite songs of all time.
I love JJ but he dumb. For someone who works in the music industry it’s hilarious the amount of bands he “didn’t know they were British”. ❤
Haven’t seen the video yet but I’m going to guess at 6/10 “I didn’t know they were British”
My dads favourite band was the beastie boys. Also a boomer
"Top 10 Modern UK Bands"
All these bands came out 20-30 years ago!
You're not the only one that hasn't heard of Alt-j....and I live in the UK
Would love to see The Vaccines on that list soon
Please react to more Arctic Monkeys! 🙏🙏 can’t believe you thought they were from New York def need to listen to their first album
Did you know that the beatles have put out a new single out called
🌟 now and then 🌟please react too please 👍❤
Yellow is cold plays best song and they didn't do much after it. I am British born in the late 60's and have never listened to Radiohead. I don't know any of their music. They must be more successfull in the US than the Uk, because nobody I know in the UK listens to Radiohead.
Marcus Mumford was born in Santa Barbara
Oh mate if you haven't listened to Arctic Monkeys prior to AM you are in for a treat!!!
Your Oasis comment made me laugh out loud. Some people get quite defensive about Oasis but the derivation of their music is patently obvious. Still good songs though, just reminiscent!
Do you like The Rutles?
Florence and The Machine is spectacular
Oops - now I see the word modern
I thought Florence + the Machine were Australian!!
Ocean Colour Scene sounds more like the Beatles to me than Oasis.
U2 are Irish.. please react to something Irish for Paddys Day 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Why was ACDC & the Bee Gees missing off the list?
