  • Nice cover from arctic monkeys

  • @kotmung It's not a cover. They wrote the song.

  • Comment removed

  • 1:07 are you shitting me? never would have guessed those lyrics.

  • my new favorite song :)

  • This reminds me of the inbetweeners. :-)

  • @ermnadine same!!

  • im speechless. ;'D

  • I watched the official vid of this song and now I can say that I have a good motive to be scared of clowns!!!!!!!!!!

  • It describes a woman who dreams of her youth while her current life is unsatisfying and boring, with emphasis on her sex life- this is reflected in the opening line, "You used to get it in your fishnets, now you only get in your nightdress, discarded all the naughty nights for niceness, landed in a very common crisis". "Fluorescent Adolescent" Just incase you was wondering what the song was about :D

  • @SlagFace96 Thank you very much :) I was guessing but couldn`t know for certain :)

  • i listen to this song whenever i feel confused or pissed off or sad with all my ''adolescent-problems''and in a strange way it makes me feel better...

  • Since the topic of the comment section is on maturity right know, I should just share my opinion on it.

    I don't know about every other fourteen year old I know, but I would like to call myself mature. Yes, I do stupid shit sometimes and say gay and retard a lot. (not so much faggot) But in a general sense, I'm a pretty mature teen.

    I really hate all that mainstream stuff, like Justin Bieber and party rock whatever-the-fuck, so what's really left for me is old ( and new) rock, including this. :)

  • Inbetweeners :D

  • @TheScent12345

    Removing your comment.

  • @TheoMackenzi I agree but being young doesn't mean you're ignorant or immature, it's an individual thing. You can be 20 and still say stuff like fake and gay or you could be 14 and be more mature than a 40 year old. It depends (:

  • i love this song!!! such a feel good wake up song (:<3

  • @TheoMackenzi Hey I'm 14 :(

  • fuckin love arctic monkeys

  • ... I never meant to piss anyone off with my comment I just thought I would share my opinion and if you don't like it then that's fine but could you all please stop replying to my comment cause it's clogging my mail box and I've already heard it before

  • @TheoMackenzi not necessarily at all meaning your homophobic. when i tell my gay best friend to stop acting like a faggot he just smiles and says thank you. then i have to quickly remind him faggot in the "your a lame fuck face" sense. like words it has double meaning and really its just how people communicate thought. so fuck off if you truly are being ignorant on how people work ya fuckin queer.

    this song is sick :3

  • @TheoMackenzi Are you asking that question seriously, or being rhetorical to try to prove some meaningless point in comments with tears?

    Giving you the benefit of the doubt and assuming you genuinely don't know, it's simple. 'Gay' is from older times where it was actually offensive - I like to pretend that people are growing desensitized to it (Much like the fall of 'dork'). 'Retard' is a general exaggeration about foolishness. Akin to saying "You're a GENIUS!" when someone had a clever idea.

  • Hey all you gays! I'm with you!!

    I don't mean the homo sex, but straight gay,

    the way the word was originally used, and that makes me happy gay,

    which was the one glimpse of "innocence" the word enjoyed.

  • I like this song like a homo liking the same gender<3

  • @TheoMackenzi but it is stupid

  • @TheoMackenzi Hey, don't insult the fourteen year olds. Not all of us are insensitive, immature idiots. :D

  • @OwlsnTurtles I said ignorant 14 year olds

  • @TheoMackenzi I was kidding, mostly.

  • @samscooterboy Are those seriously the only comebacks you have?

  • @TheoMackenzi maybe kuz we are ignorant little 14 year olds

    

  • I always look through comments in music videos...Why are there always aguments? xD It's so random. Its youtube people...Get over yourselves. Now some are just victims to random aguments, so these aren't directed at you. But some people, seriously? Lmao

  • Alright dumbasses, shut up and enjoy lovely music about slags and growing up, okay?

  • @samscooterboy Wow how old are 11?

  • im sorry but what the hell is up with every one saying the stopped watching porn for artic monkeys.....what the helll?

  • @kwaiipanda26 I watch porn and listen to Arctic Monkey......

  • @kwaiipanda26 I think it's because Arctic Monkeys are just that orgasmic.

  • @kwaiipanda26 The song is about sex so stopping to hear this is just the same

  • @zcarlosjesus yea i get it -_- 

  • @zcarlosjesus If it's about sex why does the music video include crazed clowns and random hit men..?

  • @southparkxanime Most of the time music videos never reveal the truth about songs. Pumped up Kicks by Foster the People is about a boy shooting his classmates yet the music video doesn't show that.

  • @zcarlosjesus Hmm... Very true... The Pumped Up Kicks music video was just of the band singing the song. It Didn't really show anything about a boy shooting up a school, but you can tell that was in the song...

  • @kwaiipanda26 Because their addicted to porn and they watch gay porn allday so they wanted to let everyone know by lying

  • s@caramelclutch you say im a retard when u start picking random fights over youtube, yes im a retard..

  • i just got the meaning of this song

  • best song ever. ok.

    MER. i wish i could sing it as fast and as good as him though lol. |:

  • this is such a nice song to be singing. I dont really know what the texts mean, but it makes me happy :D

  • my ear jizz.....

  • its one of my favorite all time songs! just though i would mention, if you have the time, check out my acoustic cover of this,

  • @TheoMackenzi

    Thank you for this ! I kinda gave up on pointing it out every time I see it in a Youtube comment, just cause so many people use retarded or gay to stigmatise things...

  • Ouvi essa essa musica, quando estava na merda, cheio de situações difícies, bem ela acalmou meu espirito e me animou !!!

    e estamos ai ouvindo-a de novo !

    Curtindo os melhores !

  • I LOVE this song! Check out Kate Nash's cover!! It's FABULOUS too!!!

  • tune

    

  • 5 people went right at last laugh lane

  • lol now people are making jokes about porn in exchange for music. just say it's awesome? :)

  • @TheoMackenzi I agree, but I do use "retarded" too much. I am against homophobic stuff!

  • What's the meaning of this song??

  • @actorlex Its obviously about a married wife who's sex life has turn into crap. "You used to get it in your fish nets, now you only get it in your nightdress."

    it = sex.

    there's a bunch of other euphemisms in the song, im just too lazy to pint it out.

  • V feeeestival, front row, they were immense

  • This is like porn for my ears! <3

  • @caramelclutch You messed up the order of the black hole :|

  • My mom heard me listening to this song, and I thought she was gonna freak out or yell or something, she just smiled and said "Man, you are the COOLEST kid...."

  • like if the beginning reminds you of the inbetweeners :D

  • 5 people got it in there fishnets !!!

  • <3

  • really wanting to watch the inbertweeners now...

  • Good vid! I proper love this song too. :)

  • Who the heck are the 4 people that disliked this? I'm sure they meant to click the 'like' button but got confused.

  • i always when listen an arctic monkeys song i say it should be longer.

  • Anyone know what a Mecca dobber is?

  • @jayindie93 its a bingo pen

  • @WhenWeWereKings100

    Sweet! Thank you for the clarification! :D

  • "Slag" is such a funny word to say. :D

  • and I spelt 'Arctic' wrong /:

  • I love this song. I love the Artic Monkeys.

  • amazing song :')

  • I LOVE this song, it's very addictive and I can't stop playing it!

  • @TheTerrificTracy

  • sang this on karaoke tonight, hope i did it justice

  • good job

  • ARCTIC MONKEYS FO-EVS!!!!!!!!!! HAZOOLOOOOO:D

  • @WeekendWarrior1111 yes there is a U in flourescent

  • @abc123dsa the U comes after the O

  • @ljace7 no it doesn't

  • @abc123dsa Yes it does you moron.

  • @iLecter Take a look in the dictionary

  • @abc123dsa You're dyslexic, my friend.

  • @iLecter Can I just clarify that you think the correct spelling is 'flourescent'?

  • @abc123dsa I've just read back on the conversation and have realised that I replied to the wrong person. My mistake, sorry.

  • @iLecter Haha no worries

  • OH MY GOB! THIS SONG IS SO AWESOME!

  • Or go to grooveshark

  • OMG ARCTIC MONKEYS ARE AWESOME! Their lead singer Alex Turner is sexy. ♥

  • It was this song that let me help to remember how to spell "FLUORESCENT" and "ADOLESCENT "

  • I was searching for a porn video while listening to this. for the first time i closed a porn tab for something especial.

  • @kenen112 :/

  • @kenen112 this would be the second time, but still cool

  • @kenen112 not my first time, lately since i've been listening to music like this, you know like the strokes and the pixies, lately this has become my porn and my ear feels better than my d**k

  • @kenen112 Arctic Monkeys are men, Was you looking at gay porn?

  • I just re-discovered this band today. They are really really good :D

  • @nibbler8787 obviouusly youu have no clue.

  • love love love the guitar

  • This is exactly what I was thinking.

  • OHH THE BOYS A SLAG :D ,., i really like this song (Y)

  • the song's about sex smart ones! it's not that hard 2 figure out!

  • This song brings a smile to my face!

  • I love this song its simple yet not too much.

  • @yelloweyedone simple, yet not too much? that's a bit redundant

  • @stvbckwth I know! lol I read the comment again and though "Simple yet not too much?". Lol! ;)

  • what is this song about? someone please tell me

  • 4 people are lacking in tabasco

  • Oh the boy's a slag, the best you've ever had

  • ERGHHH I LOVE ARCTIC MONKEYS FAR TO MUCH

  • This song is great ! But they are singing about what ? I really don't get it

  • @SilentNightTrain

    Well, what I've gathered is that it's basically about a woman getting older, and her love/sex life kind of falling apart. "You used to get it in your fishnets, now you only get it in your night dress," etc. "Now when she's told she's going to get it, I'm guessing that she'd rather just forget it." The 'it' would be sex.

  • @Laurabug123 Yeah i guess you are right , but the again i saw the video for this song and the clown fights and all and i wonder what how does that relate to the song?

  • @Laurabug123 I agree with this interpretation, except, that the girl is obviously old and married to a man she is no longer attracted to, and shes also post-menapausal. "that bloody mary's lacking in tobasco" "Flo, where did you go?" Flo referring to the old euphemistic saying - Aunt Flo has come for her monthly visit.

  • @stvbckwth I think I just fell in love with you. I'm not really sure where you got the married part, but I agree with it. And I have never even heard of "Aunt Flo," but that toootally makes sense now that you mention it. Aaaggghhhh I love getting new understanding of lyrics, thank you so much <3

  • @Laurabug123 Ok i get that, and wat your saying is probably right, but why is the music video aload of clowns kicking the crap out of people? haha

  • @LPglennLP

    Haha, I've read people theorizing that it's about youth v. dignity. The clowns symbolize fun and carefree stuff, and the "normal" people are supposed to be from the more adult world. I'm not really sure, man.

  • @Laurabug123 Yeah thats actually a good theory :) thanks man haha

  • @SilentNightTrain really? its pretty literal, doesn't take that much reading into to get Arctic Monkeys lyrics

  • @SilentNightTrain They are singing about the Youth, the Good period, la belle epoque !! :)

  • @SilentNightTrain

    as most artic monkeys songs, its about someone of their highschool.

    in this case a girl thats growing up, and realising that theres no use in pointless sex

  • @STimo95 I would say that is a flawed interpretation

  • @stvbckwth

    yeah I know,

    its more like she acts as if she's above it,

    but really she still needs it as back then, only difference is she can't that easily anymore.

    or did you have something different in minf.

  • Muito bom

  • i f ing like this song

  • im so in love with this song.

  • I wish I could sing this song!!! it's sooo great!!

  • the MUSIC from the old days IS better than the SHIT they play nowadays ♥

    just sayin` .

  • @SuperBillee I'm sorry, but if you're saying that Arctic Monkeys are now playing shit, GTFO <3

  • @Laurabug123 i like how u wrote GTFO and then a heart. XD

  • @LazarSavkovic

    hahaha, I'm glad you enjoyed that (;

  • @Laurabug123 wtf i love them you`re stupid i didn`t say that. i meant the stuff you hear on the radio is a pile of horse shit, DAMN.

  • @SuperBillee

    "the MUSIC from the old days IS better than the SHIT they play nowadays"

    I took "they" as Arctic Monkeys. It is a bit unclear what you were saying, to be fair. And I like how you're overreacting cause you think I overreacted. Calm down, it was just a misunderstanding.

    Have a nice day.

  • @shodytube i completely agree with you. personally i think this is the best music ever made

  • shodytube, the arctic monkeys are fucking awesome, they went to the u.s last year to make there newest album himbug, which josh from the queens of the stone age helped them record.i personnaly would say that there older albums are better, more brit pop, but the more you listen to there new album humbug the more it amazes you, Alex Turner the lead singer and song writer won most poetic song writer of the year, the lyrics are really deap, especially in humbug

  • Brilliant song <3
