i love the fact that Alex is a mixture between the weird/nerd/brilliant guy in highschool and the sexy motorcycle rider. And also an history of art teacher. all together. i love him.
he's a mix beetwen a stripper, a shy nerd, a drunk uncle at parties, a sexy biker and an emotional teenager that smoked weed for the first time. he is just elite. love u alex
I think he's making fun of us because most of us judge him by his looks; how he's changed from 'your sweet biology teacher' to 'I would prefer to show you what biology is' to '70 year old man trying to fit in with cool kids'... When people think of Alex they think of badass-quiff-leatherjacket-unforgettable AM look and now he's acting like most of fans didn't expect..he's roasting us and we aren't even aware of that and that's the funniest part of alex turner's impression
Can we just praise Miles for how tight he always is. I saw them live at Roskilde this summer and he really seemed to be "leading" the whole performance while Alex danced around and sang. Miles is a very talented musician and I think he deserves more credit than he gets for this project.
Well I haven't read any Dutch review so I don't know how exactly they justified their view. Imo Alex's solo/AM songwriting is way better than Miles' solo work, also it's a fact that Alex wrote few TLSP songs on his own. While personally I wouldn't use the word 'minimal', the widespread conclusion is that Alex brought more effort and quality into that record and I share this opinion.
If someone was to tell me 10 years ago that Alex Turner would eventually ditch his shy and recalcitrant personality, develop an elvis-infulenced gimmick, and appear dressed as a chippendale's employee in a music video for his baroque pop band I would look at you as if you had just been fed LSD
I'm picturing Matt, Nick and Jamie as Alex's parents arguing with him about hanging out with Miles, unleashing that part of him and coming home with leather vests or suberban soccer mom curls and orange foundation "THAT MILES KID IS DOING IT ALL. I'M GONNA HAVE A WORD WITH HIS MOM"
Alex in TLSP: Tell him what you want and baby he can fin you anything you need. Alex in AM: I want it all Also Alex in TLSP: is this what you wanted? Also Alex in AM: I just wanna be yours
A male friend and I (I’m also male) went to see TLSP last time they toured the U.K. and we were entranced by his cute and sexy arse. He kept shaking it and wiggling it all night long. He knows what he’s got and good on him.
TLSP in general seems to be a very liberating project for Alex where he can explore more his musical curiosities with an equally creative, bold partner. He said it himself that he felt freer performing with Miles as well not having to be the limelight at all times and his best friend's presence comforts him a lot to just be himself and let loose
it took me 6 years (2016 to 2022) to realize this video was probably live, considering the audio to this vs the ep are different, and this sounds very live and not studio-quality with alex's vocals and guitar tones etc :O so so coooool, impressive
Gabriele, it's literally just an opinion. If you listen to Bowie's later stuff, particularly late 70s going to the late 80s and really listen to his voice, the way Alex fluctuates his voice is similar to Bowie's. We're not saying that he's a reincarnation.
I watch this video before I go to sleep, I watch it before I go to school, I watch it before I think, I watch it before I take a breath, I literally can recreate this video from the amount of times I have watched it. you go girl! 😀
It's not drugs. They have had years in the business. Yesterday's shyness is today's confidence. They've evolved. Realized he could be whoever, whatever and however he wanted to be. He became this. It's all Rock n' Roll, his persona is great.
Alessandro Tioli - i definitely agree with you, drugs have no part in this, the effect that drugs would have on a person would have a totally different outcome. alex has just grown as a person and has that “give zero fucks” thing going on, which i’m very proud of to see that he has evolved and is not afraid to be himself.
I would like to thank the camera person for this video for their service to the female gaze. (Seeing things that are ‘female gaze-y’ is always refreshing given how rare they seem to be.) That whole pan up Alex’s body at 3:47 is a mood, haha. Just, thank you, whoever is responsible for that. And also for the whole part where Alex sits down at Miles’ feet and sensually leans his head back at 5:48 or so. You get me. 🙏🏼😆 He’s like a fucking Roman statue! I just wanna keep watching him move around. Also, he’s dressed like a ‘70s porn star but I am here for it. He is making that shit work.
"we're talking about the gays now?" "no. g-a-z-e" (it was lame, I know. I just had to) But for real now, I love your comment! It is really rare that we get to see a mv that is not male-centered. Even rarer when it comes to all-male rock bands. This video is really refreshing and beautifull!
I recently saw him in a very old interview saying he regretted wearing a vest on stage and that he should get more bulk for that. Glad to see him achieving goals.
Can you hear the applause that someone else makes at minute 4:06? Watch closely how Alex looks for that applause a second before, well; I listened this song on the record and I listened to that part and there´s that same applause. This video clip is literally the version of the record. Genius!
the set is literally a recording studio, the walls are acoustic walls and the blanket where the violinists' shadows are projected is a blanket to absorb the audio. who created this is simply a genius. I want to add that I listen directly through RUclips at 1080p with a dac / amp iFi "hip dac", a pair of Hifiman HE400SE headphones and my Samsung S10 plus, I think that for good music you need to listen with something good and affordable. Invest in your audio experience, it will make you very happy or I'm just really high ...
The instruments are not played live, and i'm pretty sure that the vocals aren't either.. It's quite difficult not to have any noise from the mic while moving like that...
My conductor always says that breaks (as in musical breaks within a piece of music) are as much music as a note. And I believe that this statement is absolutely true when it comes to this song. The tension that is created within certain words and tones is nerve-wracking in a very positive way.
I can't be arsed to write anything lengthy, profound or witty but think it's important that we all recognise a genius at work. Even when he's taking the piss he's better then most.
Nice song, very good interpretation from Alex, it's a shame that Miles didn't sing his part though. Their voices sound so good together. And, as always, lovely outfits. ;p
alex’s arms are the best thing in this entire video
I totally agree
He should wear that shit more
amen sister
My exact first thought when I saw this for the first time
And his chest
i like how all Alex Turner fans love him to death but also won't miss half a chance to roast the fuck out of him in every video
Lindo
True!!
Roasting as a love language. Only AM fans truly get this, lol
he might be a weirdo, but he's OUR weirdo
Roast ?? Mmm dont get it so maybe try taylor swift an be shallow
i love the fact that Alex is a mixture between the weird/nerd/brilliant guy in highschool and the sexy motorcycle rider. And also an history of art teacher. all together. i love him.
So true @ Camila Gonzalez!
👁👅
And he's unusually good at all of it
I agree...
Alex is absolutely gorgeous especially here 💖😍🤪😍💖 xx
When you wanna be the cool guy but the Cornerstone in you is coming out
Cornerstone comes after that one on my automatic playlist!^^
cornerstone is one of the best things alex have done in his career
cornerstone is cool AF mate
XOOO
Hey! I love cornerstone Alex!

love u alex
Omg yaaas
IKR!
Lmao
🤣 made my day
LMFAO
It's like Alex Turner have realized he's hot and now he's making fun of it
Ye the crackhead wore a shirt that said “being sexy is a hard job but someone’s got to do it” or sumn he’s fucked
spot on
I think he's making fun of us because most of us judge him by his looks; how he's changed from 'your sweet biology teacher' to 'I would prefer to show you what biology is' to '70 year old man trying to fit in with cool kids'...
When people think of Alex they think of badass-quiff-leatherjacket-unforgettable AM look and now he's acting like most of fans didn't expect..he's roasting us and we aren't even aware of that and that's the funniest part of alex turner's impression
He was so shy and insecure when he was younger , it looks like its another person
It became clear to me on Tranquility Base Hotel and Casino. 😂
Sometimes I forget that this version of Alex Turner existed
I miss cornerstone version
Man I lovee new gainsbourg-esque alex. Each alter ego gets better than the last haha
@@FrigglyFluff lmfaooo
Man what would I give to get this version back for a tour or two
trust me that I WILL NEVER forget😢
"You got old and wrinkled, I've stayed seventeen".
Damn. Alex the vampire.
Perhaps vampire is a bit strong but,
Leonard Cohen the vampire
It's not his song, it's a cover
Alex does give some really good Vampire vibes though... Thanks for reminding me
2014 hair agrees
I just noticed how the whole video was taken in one single shot
They're probably two, there's a transition where the screen goes completely black
MagnificantLies so was cornerstone
it's also said it was recorded live, at least the vocals
Vladislav Kuznetsov i think the whole thing was recorded live in a studio somewhere in america, it sounds much more analog and organic than eycte
Mike Cervantes this version is live . The ep one is different
Can we just praise Miles for how tight he always is. I saw them live at Roskilde this summer and he really seemed to be "leading" the whole performance while Alex danced around and sang. Miles is a very talented musician and I think he deserves more credit than he gets for this project.
Oh my gawd, thank you ! Someone is finally saying it !
tbh Alex's songwriting improves their work much more than Miles' guitar and overall performance skills, so I guess the credit he gets is just right.
Well I haven't read any Dutch review so I don't know how exactly they justified their view. Imo Alex's solo/AM songwriting is way better than Miles' solo work, also it's a fact that Alex wrote few TLSP songs on his own. While personally I wouldn't use the word 'minimal', the widespread conclusion is that Alex brought more effort and quality into that record and I share this opinion.
Together they are sublime
Coup of the grace send miles out of space and know he has his majority
If someone was to tell me 10 years ago that Alex Turner would eventually ditch his shy and recalcitrant personality, develop an elvis-infulenced gimmick, and appear dressed as a chippendale's employee in a music video for his baroque pop band I would look at you as if you had just been fed LSD
Tim now you know how he got this weird ass idea
god this is such a good comment
Hahhahahahah
no, this is actually bowie-influenced....
TheKenjoje - cool info then:) , thanks
This is just the Cornerstone music video in 4K
hahahhaha this is by far the best comment
Alex's singing in this is heaven... and arms...
This will be OUR heaven Roksana.
tlsp would totally be that band playing at an empty bar at one in the morning
Jasmine Lam accurate
I don't if this is a good or a bad thing
And I'd be there, not even drunk
I'd be the most current client

When he hit that high note at 3:53, my jaw dropped. I love it.
he’s a god
When you create a whole music video to show people that you've been working out a lot recently 💪🏻💪🏻
True ahahahah
Alison Gilmore omfg I'm crying
So true! Omg, hahaha ^_^
That downlighting though...
exactly
4:50 I've never heard Alex sing like that before and I'm so emotional I can't believe what I've been missing out on
Listen to the original L Cohen version.
why tlsp is so underrated???? i can't live with that

i couldn't agree more. it's great!
That's because they are the last shadow puppets :p
No joke he’s one of the most handsome fellas around
right
I swear Alex has been drunk since 2013.
:DDD
lMfao
Minh Huy Lê , I sear I’ve been drunk since 2013..
Or maybe he was a little too wild in the 70’s

Alex in AM: I want it all
Also Alex in TLSP: is this what you wanted?
Also Alex in AM: I just wanna be yours

He hasn't had in 2007, but since 2015 he has been extremely T H I C C

Alex's vocals have never been so good
I got pregnant when I was seeing this video.
I am a man.
Me too 😂 well bisexuality sound cooler

1:28 i love the way he says “wanted”
RIP Leonard Cohen. It's great that his work has not gone unnoticed by the newer generations of music. This version is spectacular.
I love the tone that British rockstars seem to have! Theyre all unique but share a similar sound. Alex sounded so much like Bowie in parts of this!
Sophie B thank you! I heard Bowie too
I'm so glad y'all heard this too! He really did sound like Bowie sometimes!
Alex is good but please don't be insane :)
Gabriele, it's literally just an opinion. If you listen to Bowie's later stuff, particularly late 70s going to the late 80s and really listen to his voice, the way Alex fluctuates his voice is similar to Bowie's. We're not saying that he's a reincarnation.

Such beautiful photography, it's worth it for the opening scene, I've been driving round listening to the scores

Everytime I see Alex, I fall in love with him unsanely
Yes. This is exactly what I wanted. Thank you Alexander.
Have never realized that this song is six minutes long. Wish it could be longer. Smiling throughout the whole video.

You speak for a large proportion of the female population
wow alex actually putting emotion into his voice after am is very refreshing

His voice, his arms, his hair, his legs, his skin.... Every thing about him & this video is just so fucking PERFECT 😭🔥
Preach
This is like a Queen video or something. I'm actually shocked despite everything I've come to expect from these boys.
Just a 70's vibe which fits the song I think. And they... well they've been acting this way for long time now.
I should probably replace shocked with surprised.
