This is transcribed for those who can't understand Alex's slurred speech. Interviewer: Hello Alex Turner Alex: Alright mate I: Congratulations on your Q awards A: Thank you very much I: Which one are you happiest with? A: What did we get - 2? Well the DVD wasn’t really anything to do with us; it was all like raw film, so probably the album. I: The album’s kind of important innit...and um, why did you choose to turn up tonight, rather than dressing up as the village people? A: Why did i what? I: Why did you choose to turn up tonight, rather than dressing up as the village people? A: You know, we were gonna turn up and dress up as the village people, but Cookie (Jamie Cook) bottled it. I texted him the other night saying "do you wanna do the costumes for the NME thing?" and he’s like "nah i wanna wear me new cardi[gan]." Like, so. I: Who have you met tonight who’s been fun? Have you made any friends? A: I beg your pardon I: Have you made any new friends? A: I haven’t really. Who have i spoke to? Not really. I spoke to one of the Horrors before, and i quite liked their tunes that i’ve heard. He was dead nice. I think it was the drummer, but i don’t know. But he, uh, he was apologising because we went to watch them the other week, and they didn’t turn up, like they didn’t play, they cancelled...he was ill or something. So, um, i met him and he were apologetic and very nice. They were sound. No one really, that’s it. Sarah [Harding] and Nicola [Roberts] [of] Girls Aloud. I: Did you meet them? Did you say hello? A: Oh yeah. I: What did you talk to Sarah about? A: Well Sarah and [Matt] Helders are gonna do a collaboration. We’re gonna book some studio time tomorrow. We’re thinking maybe Saw Mills. I: What about Eurythmics sort of vibe? A: ‘ey? I: What about Eurythmics sort of vibe? A: I beg your pardon I: A Eurythmics sort of vibe? A: I don’t know what it’s gonna be. I think it’s gonna be a bit electronic, between me and you. But, yeah, no. I think they’d be a good combo, can you imagine? They’d have good single covers. Like Helders and Sarah, Helders with his hair cut...they’d be good you know. He’d have like a white shirt on, with maybe like a pencil tie. Probably not a tie actually. Just a white shirt. They could have a good look. I: Oh, do you reckon? And um, finally, well obviously your new album is out soon, ‘Favourite Worst Nightmare’. No one’s heard it yet. What can you tell us about your new album? A: Erm...If you play it backwards, there’s messages, like. Ah, there isn’t even though. I don’t know. I: If you could put in messages on your album backwards, what would they be? A: Play what? It is played backwards. We recorded our album and then we played it backwards, and that’s what it sounded like, so we put it out backwards instead. I: Very good. A: I don’t know. I can’t really hear. I don’t even really know what you’re asking. I: If you could just give the viewers a quick...’Brianstorm’, your new single...tell us a bit about Brian. A: Brian, i dunno, i can’t remember Brian now, i think he, um, i don’t know if he were in me imagination or what, or in everyone’s imagination, or if he were real. I don’t know. It’s a blank spot in me brain, like. I: And where are you going tonight? A: [We will] see what happens. We’ve got like Steven...me mates from the video n’ that. We’re gonna have a laugh. We always have a laugh. Everyone’s here, aren’t they so? I: Thank you very much. A: Nice one, that.
"Brian... i dunno, i can't remember Brian now, i think he um, i dunno if he were in me imagination or what, or in everyone's, or whether he were real, i dunno. he lives in a dark place, a blank spot in me brain. i think that's what he wanted."
too cute! And bloodyhell, why is everyone saying Alex is 'ruined' now and shit like that, yes he's changed his haircut again and got a bit of a new style but I know he's still just as amazing and just as lovely as he was then, you only have to watch recent interviews with him to see that!
the lead singer of 2 of my fav bands ever, being nice to an interviewer! yes, he must be quite drunk! stay in the music biz for a long time alex, we love your work :)
Yeah, saw him live last night at Big Day Out ... First/second row ... They played new material only heard in New Zealand so far ... *self satisfied grin*
cookie didnt want to dress up like the village people. you know, cookie is jamie! lol, after a year of watching him i can actually understand what he is saying. he's the best!! such a gentleman and dreamy and funny! wish i was there drinking with him
It doesn't matter how long his hair is, he's still gorgeous. :D I wish I caught the pick from either Alex or Jamie. I went to the Melbourne Palais Theatre performance. Gah, AM are brilliant.
Pues en realidad se nota que la esta pasando super tranquilo y tiene un buen humor jsja se le ve que es de esas personas con la que puedes conversar un buen rato y divertirte :3
This was fun, *interviewer asks 'bout FWN* Alex: *thinking: which fucking new album?... Oh, right!... what was it about? Right, demoniac messages* *Rambles 'bout recording albums backwards* interviewer:...*ok yeah, wtf?* nice. I so loled
I'm a musician and I've been interviewed after a gig at a party exhausted and pumped well I was totalled bonzoed and I quite liked it I would think its the best time to interview an artist.
columbian flu Alex. Wired to the max :), He's always a pleasant chap and is so happy to be where he and the band are. Good to see, nothing worse than massive ego's in a band- arctics are the best in show, Alex Turner i salute you- living legend. Although some of the new songs are a bit ropey like that netles song, whats all that about :)
"have you made any friends?"
"no, not really"
me
"i beg your pardon" OMG HE'S SO POLITE I'M GONNA CRY
Ikr:(

He is really polite for a drunk, theres no doubt he is wasted but I love him a little more drunk!
