Lightspeed Champion + Alex Turner at White Heat

[Eliu5564]

Rhys Webb from The Horrors on the drums!

[satanicusfx]

fuck

[GabloFX2]

HOly shhhh......... Alex Turner... The Bassist from The Rascals....... And Lightspeed champion :-O!!!!

[leathersuitcase]

i thought the original was fast... well done alex (Y)

[ripcordnews]

BAMF

[prisonertoinstincts]

This is definitely better than their cover of Take It Or Leave It. But even Alex admitted that cover was sub-par. I love the mutual adoration between the bands, but when it comes down to it they have different styles.

[Mattyroxx49]

when you combine these two.. ICANTEVEN. HOW DO I REACT TO THIS?! I FUCKING LOVE IT.

[strokesarcticmonkeys]

cool!!!

[djpj22]

All the comments below are talking about Alex Turner.........no-one give a crap about the excellence that is Dev Hynes? He hits every note bang on, unlike Alex Turner.........

[aldack]

bad drummer!...

[rodoxdj]

3:03 -Hey alex, did u forget the chorus?

- yeah, i'm so f*cked up and sooo high, lol.

[LizzBombx]

He has just killed the song. The crowd are more excited about the strokes song than the arctics songs themselves, the strokes destroy the arctic monkeys.

[FactoryofFUNK]

@LizzBombx seconded!

[monkeysinthearctic]

@LizzBombx shut up

[JackWMS14]

@LizzBombx No.

[pollypocket242]

Dude, Arctic Monkeys and The Strokes are my favorite bands... Mind blown.

[123ranger123]

fuck security go stagedivers!!! ))

[thekillers1stfan]

i kinda like the mistake, it gives the performance a little character

[guzbataca]

They did a mistake in the song... look

[DiCkRiChArDz]

dev is so underrated.

[s4mb1n]

where is white heat?

[rcd1875]

is that the rascals bassist aswell?

[zel050]

I love The strokes and like all of their songs, but Reptilia is a very overplayed song here in Mexico, don't realy like it 'cause of that, but this cover is truly refreshing, Alex gives a nice brit accent to this and i just love it.

[gameboy772]

I know this is a completely different band, and it's live but... I still love hearing this song. Audience was awesome.

[nliv0916]

@Thor24x no way dude. You can't compare Julian and Alex. Arctic Monkeys wouldn't exist if it wasn't for The Strokes. No one can ever do it better than The Strokes, not even Alex Turner, no matter how amazing he is.

[xCaL2k7x]

@nliv0916 They were inspired by The Strokes but you can't say they wouldn't exist cause they still would.

[Thor24x]

better than the original, just because of alex's voice

[alesancort30]

genial palomaso del Alex!!!! que asi fueran todos los palomasos a los que asisto seria genial!!!

[lamburro]

Muy buen Video !

[beetlezumbie]

alex is like U DOT PLAY YET! at 2:48 funny!

[ooori21]

I wish I had been there!! My favourite singer singing one of my favourite songs!! *_*

A M A Z I N G!! <3 <3

[TrAsHcOvEr]

the drummer isn't greg michall..looks like a priest..but where is greg!!!disappeared after the rascals

[TrAsHcOvEr]

the drummer isn't greg michall..looks like a priest..but where is greg!!!disappeared after the rascals

[alexagoulding]

why are there 23 people in the world who don't like this?

[MrImdonewithyou]

Fucking love the strokes and lightspeed. i think that alex turner is a wanker but still like arctic monkeys

[CMArctics505]

@MrImdonewithyou How can you say he's a wanker when going by interviews and people that have met him he's one of the nicest people around :|

[MrImdonewithyou]

@CMArctics505 he is just such an idiot and in all the interviews i have seen of him he has had no sense of humour and just been a prick who is just full of himself. i dunno what interviews you have been watching mate.

[Thor24x]

@MrImdonewithyou no, u dont get it, this is someone so shaken to his core by meaning in music that it actually effects his mood, and he seems full of himself and wont talk because he doesn't like to go off bragging about himself

[YagamiWay94]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE it!

[FWNiightmare]

lol did they mess up? so wish i was there

[pstrokeslibsarctic]

dont have to be perfect, it's garage rock, man :DD

[alny49s]

puedes subir mas videos de ese recital?

porfavor :D

[clayb24]

joe needs to turn the tone down on his bass or distort it slightly, sounds horrible

[PanicPetarditen]

it's me dancing at 1:00

[MrSecretDoor]

ALEX TURNER IS GOD !

[MrSecretDoor]

ALEX TURNER IS GOD !!!

[retrobabe]

the crowd are soooooo lucky

[enthu15]

@retrobabe and crazy too

[backassshoes]

omg too much talent for one little room, i dont understand how people didn't catch fire... great song, great artisits

[maRiOCK0]

sin duda alex es bn kabron

pero es mejor julian

<3 strokes & arctic monkeys

[soldat182]

what could be better two great guitarists/singer songwriters playing one of the best songs of all time: REPTILIA!!!!!!! by another great band, the strokes (y)

[daligirl8]

where i can download it?

[DiCkRiChArDz]

Did that security guard just try to stop the crowd from moving and crowd surfing?

[ShapeUpHull]

haha, at the end it's something like '...you sexy bitch!' :')

[jope17yo]

alucinante!!!!!!

[LastArcticRascal]

i think its Greg mitchel or somthin , hes was the bassist for The Rascals and the little flames

[THECLAYSTER]

Yep, he's in the Rascals.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought it was the same guy.

[AnnemieHeffie]

yeah, he's the guy from the rascals. (: but his name is Greg Mighall.

great bassist & a very funny lad.

+ this is a very very very nice cover. <3

[clayb24]

its joe edwards, although he looks like a greg, the drummer is greg!

[AnnemieHeffie]

@clayb24 yeah, you're right. of course! (: i know who is who, but i didn't recognise Joe. but when i was reading those comments i had to say that it wasn't Greg Mitchel, but Greg Mighall. =) so yeah, you're right. ^^

[TrAsHcOvEr]

the drummer isn't greg michall..looks like a priest..but where is greg!!!disappeared afret the rascals

[TigerFrida]

who is the guy in the middle?

[simplythemati]

good video

[cancerbero8]

why do people hate so much on bands that play covers?

I mean, at least it was these guys and not someone like Kanye or Katy Perry...

[Grincoo]

hey if you try to listen the original reptilia by the strokes after hearing this, it sounds like slow-mo hahaha

[brenbren211]

love it, especaily when you consider they have not practised together once before. as k0k0jamb0 said its the strokes song, they will always sound better but still!

[noapologiesnoregrets]

hahaha, the security guy!

alex is really sexy ... :P

[k0k0jamb0]

people need to relax. they're just having fun. of course the strokes will sound better. its their song and they've rehearsed it a million times.

[cieggou]

Lightspeed Champion

[Ulmeyda08]

Fuck me, you can tell that's a London crowd. They're even dashing coins at the people they came to see!

[MrBen500]

dev>alex

[blocparti]

ok this is just like three bands that i love all in one

X3

[oskartmusic]

yeah¡¡ the strokes rules

oh¡¡ sorry arctic rules

[paulbanks999]

This is decent, but cannot top the strokes whatsoever. and it's waaaaayyyy too fast to even enjoy it. Plus he plays all the wrong chords etc.

[MBCsi]

shhhh

[themardybum08]

You utter cock, can't you enjoy this for what it is?

[TigerFrida]

alex singing the strokes = heaven

[Argee11]

Drummer Fail at 2:46!

Otherwise, great show

[Nilacomparacion]

Arctic Monkeys, The Strokes (L)

[flyingturtle95]

What a wanker who threw that at Alex..

If I ever see him...Or find out who he is...he's a dead man!!!

[KellC92]

haha this is funny.

It was a fun cover..it looks Like they were just having fun..I give them props for that.

ofcorse no one can top the Strokes tho

:D

[cardboardboxesftw]

this sucks honestly :(

what did alex say in the beginning?

[LasgalenOsten]

That he got hit by a coin or summat and that he was bleeding and stuff. And it's an amazing cover! Specially since, as LC said, they didn't practice it.

[danny140]

Alex turner and Lighspeed champion playing the strokes..

In what possible world could this suck!!?

I would have killed to have been there at that once in a life time cover!

[cardboardboxesftw]

Well I mean it just sounds smashed or whatever? I still love alex turnerrr :D

[clayb24]

that greg or joe :/ well the rascals bassist!!!!!!

[killakan81]

i mad alex said black and white always get the job done

[dancingshoesx505]

why is that?

Alex is god. and you shouldn't hate god. Or he shouldn't hate god.

[FxckingBabe]

well said.

[dancingshoesx505]

hahha yea.

[yurksemesh]

Lol, at 2:46 the guitar comes in too early.

Alex just runs with it.

[hamajuggle]

Indeed XD Lol at his reaction

[CamoSpartan07]

I think it was good. They gave their own unique spin to the song.

[dead480]

alex is amazing

[ifilthyouth]

+ Alex's butt at the end. Nice.

[bestyoulget]

[thomfaulkner]

Why the hell can I not remember what song this is? Lightspeed Champion fucking rules.

[Supernonee]

[Lionsdale]

for some reason alex is bleeding from the forhead, listen to him at the beggining lol he is to i saw pictures from the gig... wonder how that happened lol.

[kalimorgana]

I think someone threw something at him.

[arcticmonkeysarefit]

[thanekats]

Lots a love for Arctic Monkeys, but Alex Turner doesn't have the voice to do this song justice.

[789JA987]
