Maybe because the band were (at the time of your comment) split for 4 years. Bloody Nora... half the people in this comments section are plastic fans acting like they just discovered the Beatles and the over half are ubsesed with Alex turner's hair cuts.
harry drewitt they never split for 4 years, you talk utter shite you’re the plastic fan. All they had was a ‘break’ for 5 years but probably even less because of them composing TBHC.
Is it strange that I melt every time he sings the "on her own" part. I don't know why but I just love what he does with his voice there!!! My favorite song by them by far, but when it's the acoustic version I just die, my favorite song of ALL time.
Somehow in the last verse, the lyrics changing from 'I thought that she'd understand' to 'I knew she'd understand' just made the song that much better. Anyone else share the same feeling?
i’m on acid right now and i’m just letting you guys know that even though we love humbug alex, i’ve had a revelation that this was not who he was supposed to be. even though he was divine, that’s not who he was
Arctic Monkeys I thought I saw you in the battleship But it was only a look a like She was nothing but a vision trick Under the warning light She was close, close enough to be your ghost But my chances turned to toast When I asked her if I could call her your name I thought I saw you in the rusty hook Huddled up in wicker chair I wandered up for a closer look And kissed who ever was sitting there She was close, and she held me very tightly 'Til I asked awfully politely, please Can I call you her name And I elongated my lift home, Yeah I let him go the long way round I smelt your scent on the seat belt And kept my shortcuts to myself I thought I saw you in the parrots beak Messing with the smoke alarm It was too loud for me to hear her speak And she had a broken arm It was close, so close that the walls were wet And she wrote it out in letraset No you can't call me her name Tell me where's your hiding place I'm worried I'll forget your face And I've asked everyone I'm beginning to think I imagined you all along I elongated my lift home Yeah I let him go the long way 'round I smelt your scent on the seat belt And kept my shortcuts to myself I saw your sister in the cornerstone On the phone to the middle man When I saw that she was on her own I thought she might understand She was close, well you couldn't get much closer She said I'm really not supposed to but yes, You can call me anything you want
i like the simplicity...it's like they probably worked on those two guitar lines for weeks..and at the end were surprised it worked ..ha..it's good to have a drink of water..relief.
OMG! I´ve been looking for this version for almost 5 months!!! I can't believe I found it. It's the same Cornerstone as in Acoustic 15 (full album). LOVE IT!!! Thanks!

john gives alex the most awkward smirk when he says "just going to have a sip of water." like he knows its creepy as fuck but he just smiles to be nice
Why don't people talk about this song more?!! They're doing Arctic such a disservice by not referencing how beautiful it is.
Maybe because the band were (at the time of your comment) split for 4 years. Bloody Nora... half the people in this comments section are plastic fans acting like they just discovered the Beatles and the over half are ubsesed with Alex turner's hair cuts.
I think this is one of the most beautiful songs of them.
Con eme de Melee Thank You👏🎸🙏✌

we talk about it on every AM music video
I absolutely loved each and every one of the 8 pixels of this video
Obviously a young dope.

thejakebuggexperience absolutely bang on with the “on her own” part & Cornerstone is also my favourite. Just can’t top it imo
3:18 Gotta love how he says "It's good to have a sip of water"
Just going to have a sip of water **
His voice's so soft i cant😢😢😢
He gave me shivers just like he's whispering something dirty
wattaa
Somehow in the last verse, the lyrics changing from 'I thought that she'd understand' to 'I knew she'd understand' just made the song that much better. Anyone else share the same feeling?
ME
yeah he changes it around pretty often
Aye
How about using the word in ghost in the first verse? and then not use again as he knows it’s there, haunting you…
@@nrucafetowhat
Cornerstoned
I love that whispery voice, suits the song perfectly, and it's probably my favourite Alex style out of the many styles he's had.

how are you now
Danny II i’m good. couldn’t fall asleep until 10am, then i only slept 3 hours and i’m awake again. thank you!!
yea have a good day mate
@@velouriaasmr1299 hahahahah fuckin mega this comment
a trick : watch series at flixzone. Been using it for watching lots of of movies these days.
Arctic Monkeys
I thought I saw you in the battleship
But it was only a look a like
She was nothing but a vision trick
Under the warning light
She was close, close enough to be your ghost
But my chances turned to toast
When I asked her if I could call her your name
I thought I saw you in the rusty hook
Huddled up in wicker chair
I wandered up for a closer look
And kissed who ever was sitting there
She was close, and she held me very tightly
'Til I asked awfully politely, please
Can I call you her name
And I elongated my lift home,
Yeah I let him go the long way round
I smelt your scent on the seat belt
And kept my shortcuts to myself
I thought I saw you in the parrots beak
Messing with the smoke alarm
It was too loud for me to hear her speak
And she had a broken arm
It was close, so close that the walls were wet
And she wrote it out in letraset
No you can't call me her name
Tell me where's your hiding place
I'm worried I'll forget your face
And I've asked everyone
I'm beginning to think I imagined you all along
I elongated my lift home
Yeah I let him go the long way 'round
I smelt your scent on the seat belt
And kept my shortcuts to myself
I saw your sister in the cornerstone
On the phone to the middle man
When I saw that she was on her own
I thought she might understand
She was close, well you couldn't get much closer
She said I'm really not supposed to but yes,
You can call me anything you want
I love these lyrics so much. The best song ever recorded by AM. Alex plays chords and sings flawlessly. Much respect for him and the band.
3:10 "anything you wan........*t*"
It's good to have a sip of water.
@@anodegaming4311 nah, he said just going to have a sip of water
Love it
that happened
this is angelic
