My two best friends and I skipped school and took the train into Manhattan to see our favorite Sheffield boys perform on Alexa's show. Four year later, this is still one of the best days ever.
Much as I (really) love it, it's kinky, neat and clever. But it's not top class. For premiership, see Leonard Coen, Ian Dury, Paul Simon, Dylan, Bowie, the Smiths...I'll stop there.
+Mrs. RockKitty Tbf I disagree, he's abandoned some of his best singing for a sexier tone nowadays in my opinion. Both have their merits, I guess I just prefer this style of singing (live anyway).
Larissa Zyck yeah I don't really get why so many guys are going with that quiff short hair elvis look nowdays. Alex looked so good with long hair and now he kind of looks like a douche with his elvis look. Maybe I just associate that hairstyle with douches in general since every douche I know personally has that look.
But he was always a douche. The difference between the old and new Alex hairstyle is that before he was a cute douche, and now he's a badass douche (and yea, i like Arctic Monkeys. I'm not a hater).
I agree. I even think that he might be going crazy because he misses her and he's trying to talk to her even though she's not there, and her sister is the only one that 'understands' because she's going through the same grief
Some people think he calls the last girl her "sister" just because they look so similar, and the woman is really a prostitute, which is why she's "on the phone with the middle man" (the middle man being her pimp) and why he said that she would understand because she was on her own (aka not with another client) and why she was the only one who let him call her the other girls name. and also "she was close" in every situation could either mean she looked similar, OR it could also mean she was PHYSICALLY close, something that the girl he's looking for isn't.
Yeah him and miles really have changed so much... Like compare their older live shows to their recent ones, it's like they're different people. I love it though
+Jesse Davidson milex shipper or not, as you said the shows are really good now and back then,too ... just cant decide what decade i like more.its also incredible to see their changes in the whole way of living
I have an equal amount of love for both decades :). I just can't stand the people that are complaining about how different they are... Like it's been 8 years... What did you expect? They're in their 30's now. 'Course they're different. I love the fresh vibe from EYCTE
This is like the type of old song they would write back in the 50’s-60’s era. Love the imagery and overall story in this song. Shame they don’t write like this anymore.
Jesus Mesina the first album was very good. but for me, i kind of pick out a few songs that are good from that. i can listen to humbug all the way through
+Stefan Praml Iggy pop agreed to a drummer from a young successful band being his drummer....yeah he's the best drummer ever. lol. I'm sure he can play the drums, let's not get carried away.
I think Sofia's comment is based more on his overall performance. Check out songs like Brainstorm or The View From The Afternoon. Yes, this is simpler song, but even then, it's got the touch. I agree that he's a very talented drummer, one of the best I've heard also.
Surely some of Mr Turners finest lyrics? A lesson in song writing and a beautiful performance. Looking at the hair, hats and 'relaxed vibe' I say the drugs where working nicely at this point
Rediscover this song, with what I'm going through really brings me back 2010 memories..the first time I listened to this song I was going one the WORST break ups I've ever had, and now, relieving the exact feeling with the exact song Crazy..
+Flávia M. haha eu sempre odiei o Humbug mas sempre amei essa música, pra mim é top 5 da banda. Galera não sabe que as melhores músicas do AM são as antigas e não desse novo CD modinha.

That's nicee :)
Lucky...
Nice
How about 10 years later?
I think this was the best decision you have ever made
Jamie's in the Arctic.
tyl jamie’s the arctic monkey
And he is a monkey
underrated comment
lyrically one of the best songs ever
For sure
Much as I (really) love it, it's kinky, neat and clever. But it's not top class. For premiership, see Leonard Coen, Ian Dury, Paul Simon, Dylan, Bowie, the Smiths...I'll stop there.
Is Jamie about to go ice fishing or something
too funny
+Brandon Walsh I could barely recognise him
LMFAO totally ice fishin mate
Lydia Williams omg
LOL MADE MY DAY
fucking Alex Turner can call me anything he wants damn
I like Alex with long hair, but no matter how he looks his voice is ALWAYS amazing!
+Mrs. RockKitty Tbf I disagree, he's abandoned some of his best singing for a sexier tone nowadays in my opinion. Both have their merits, I guess I just prefer this style of singing (live anyway).
+Sam Bickerstaff And still his voice is amazing on A.M.
Sam Bickerstaff he is technically a much better singer now than he was on the first 2 albums.
Why does everyone think he looks hotter now, he looks fucking sexy with his hair like that, damn
Yo tambien asincon su pelote ❤
Jamie looks like he's straight outta south park
Random GreenDay Fangirl505 thank you for this golden comment
I can't get over the fact that this was aired on Alexa's show
+dandelion burdock me neither
I wonder what Alexa felt during this session
Yeah, we're not going to see Alex like this ever again.
Evolution can be a strange thing, I'm still on the fence with the new "Elvis" persona.
Larissa Zyck yeah I don't really get why so many guys are going with that quiff short hair elvis look nowdays. Alex looked so good with long hair and now he kind of looks like a douche with his elvis look. Maybe I just associate that hairstyle with douches in general since every douche I know personally has that look.
He'd have the SIAS look if he didn't use so much damn pommade
SoySauce HairDye yeah most douche bags i know have that same hair cut too. lol
But he was always a douche. The difference between the old and new Alex hairstyle is that before he was a cute douche, and now he's a badass douche (and yea, i like Arctic Monkeys. I'm not a hater).
The confidence in his vocals were just about to launch off into space a few years later. His singing grew amazingly
I hate how he sings now. It’s like a really bad, cheesy lounge singer.
@@sharinglungs3226fr bruh lounge is the word that comes to mind first and to describe his voice now and it sucks compared to his prime voice
@@estebandiazmendez4562everyone is kept to their opinion, His new voice is masterpiece
@@gurrenmed5319 ur right ig it has its positives and negatives his new voice
Thanks to Josh Homme!
this song takes on a whole different mood if you imagine the girl died instead of a breakup and her sister really misses her too :/
I agree. I even think that he might be going crazy because he misses her and he's trying to talk to her even though she's not there, and her sister is the only one that 'understands' because she's going through the same grief
+Andrew D. You are not the only one who thought she died D':
+Andrew D. fak
always thought it was about a dead girl...never thought about break-up orz
Some people think he calls the last girl her "sister" just because they look so similar, and the woman is really a prostitute, which is why she's "on the phone with the middle man" (the middle man being her pimp) and why he said that she would understand because she was on her own (aka not with another client) and why she was the only one who let him call her the other girls name. and also "she was close" in every situation could either mean she looked similar, OR it could also mean she was PHYSICALLY close, something that the girl he's looking for isn't.
i sort of cant believe that alex from this video is the same person as alex from 2016 who swivels his hips in tight trousers with pomade in his hair
Yeah him and miles really have changed so much... Like compare their older live shows to their recent ones, it's like they're different people. I love it though
i love it too! nobody can resist milex
Ema haha well im not really a milex shipper, but i get it if you are. (Because of how they act towards each other on stage) :')
+Jesse Davidson milex shipper or not, as you said the shows are really good now and back then,too ... just cant decide what decade i like more.its also incredible to see their changes in the whole way of living
I have an equal amount of love for both decades :). I just can't stand the people that are complaining about how different they are... Like it's been 8 years... What did you expect? They're in their 30's now. 'Course they're different. I love the fresh vibe from EYCTE
Humbug was a hairy time for everyone
they were to busy recording xD who has time for haircuts!
Jamie with the hat, the boots, chewing gum, playing so perfectly and moving so peacfully...
34 people don't deserve to be called their own name
hahah very funny emo guy
91 now
109 now :(
Can't understand :'(
@@ankitmishra6222 the number of dislikes
Jamie ironically looks like he's going to the Arctic
I love this song, I might just walk around my house in my favorite red sweater all day with my cassette player and microphone singing it!
This is like the type of old song they would write back in the 50’s-60’s era. Love the imagery and overall story in this song. Shame they don’t write like this anymore.
Yep. So bob dylanish.
alex doesn't even need any auto tune, his voice is already too perfect 💖💖💖
im so proud that jamie has his own solos
What a weird comment
@@sratushow is it weird
God I love his hair!!!
he sounds as pure as an angel in this
HUMBUG ERA
i agree.
Maryam Sayed I disagree :/ First álbum is gold to me
Jesus Mesina the first album was very good. but for me, i kind of pick out a few songs that are good from that. i can listen to humbug all the way through
Ivy Fresquez the best era ever !
My fave of all time! "You can call me anything you want..."
Who let jamie on stage like that DAMMIT
Nick just hiding in the darkest corner, love it
Easily one of the most beautiful songs ever written
Matt Helders will be forever one of the most talent drummers music ever known. Fight me!
+Sofia Santos Iggy Pop agreed on him being his drummer so this pretty much says everything about his talent
+Stefan Praml true words. He's just such a good songwriter *.* .... sometimes his lyricses make me cry just 'cause they're so good♥
+Stefan Praml Iggy pop agreed to a drummer from a young successful band being his drummer....yeah he's the best drummer ever. lol. I'm sure he can play the drums, let's not get carried away.
Matt's a really good drummer but he is certainly not one of the most talented, anyone who's learned even grade 3 drumming could play this song.
I think Sofia's comment is based more on his overall performance. Check out songs like Brainstorm or The View From The Afternoon. Yes, this is simpler song, but even then, it's got the touch. I agree that he's a very talented drummer, one of the best I've heard also.
Bit cold Jamie?!
Hahha
theyre evolving not only as people but as a band. why would you wanna see the same thing over and over again? lets be real here
The many hairstyles of Alex Turner
Humbug hair will always be the best tho
Yahya Abdul-Qadeer the hair on this video is the humbug hair
Surely some of Mr Turners finest lyrics? A lesson in song writing and a beautiful performance. Looking at the hair, hats and 'relaxed vibe' I say the drugs where working nicely at this point
Matt's hair hahahahaa
Why is everybody complaining for Alex's hair? Is his hair! For God's sake!
I'm in love with this song.
It brings me back memories that The Artic Monkeys is the only performance I could ever dream of & I’m saving it for later.
Jamie was feeling like he was Holden Caufield in the Catcher in the rye. LOL
Jamie must've been cold before getting on stage
Jamie looks pretty cozy.
Olha esse cabelo do Alex que coisa maravilhosa
💗💗❤❤💗💗❤❤ The best song :'3
Jesus Christ, John Lennon, Bob Dylan and and Kyle from Southpark
I love you now.
