  • "trying to do too many tricks, fuck it, cheers..." lol

  • why Thom Yorke always look like he's pissed in every single video of Arctic Monkeys' award acceptance speech? does he hate them?

  • @hojun7273: Actually, he does. He once criticised Arctic Monkeys, and Matt Helders slagged him quite a bit off in an interview saying he couldn't listen fully to a Radiohead album because he always fell asleep.

  • @PSExposed ahhh why can't people be nice to each other

  • @hojun7273: I agree. Arctic Monkeys have something going on with The Kooks as well. In 2008, The Kooks revealed an ongoing dispute with Arctic Monkeys. The feud arose from Pritchard kicking Alex Turner in the face whilst onstage. Pritchard claimed that Turner had been attempting to disrupt his performance. "I had to kick Alex in the face after he tried to pull the leads out of my guitar pedals while we were on stage." He tried to make up but Alex didn't want anything to do with him.

  • @PSExposed whaaaaaat are you serious?

  • @hojun7273 thats actually bullshit

  • @PSExposed thats bullshit

  • @PSExposed

    Would you actually believe that Alex Turner, the Alex Turner, would do such a thing like that?

    I mean, he's Alex Turner....

  • @SergeantPeppors

    Hahahahahahahahaahahah.

  • wo wo wo steady on

  • Thom Yorke wincing. What a cunt.

  • Why do they show a horse at 0:30 ?

  • @SergeantPeppors hahaha; your comment made my day!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @SergeantPeppors OMG! So true!!!!! xD

  • @MaryROCK2 You're welcome :-)

  • Thom Yorke's little disapproving frown at 'good tunes.' Harsh.

  • Thom Yorke at 1:46

  • @JaffarDS Thom thinks they're wankers :P

  • @queerp hahaha, probably

  • Philip Selway at 00:32

  • Woah Woah Steady On :L

  • @MaryROCK2 Well, Matt made a joke about Jules not looking as old as he is, then Alex said thanks everyone who helped and the award doesnt usually go to ppl whove sold as many records as them, to put it bluntly. He said what they try to do is just make good tunes, and there are too many people doing tricks and stuff and they just want to make good music and thats it. Hope that helped :)

  • The Thom Yorke frowny bit at about 2 minutes amuses me no end. Just saw Submarine and the soundtrack wasn't bad.,

  • They're so cute <3

  • Alex was so nervous here. Thats why he comes across as abit arrogant. I think the fact the he suffers from shyness is why the arctics dont really do that many interviews nowadays.

    They should let Helders do all there promotional stuff. He is a likeable boy.

  • 0.32 LOL

  • thom yorke's disapproving and confused eye movement.

  • clickidyclickclick

  • i actually hate the way jools speaks... oh well Arctic monkeys!

  • omg thom yorkes face lol doesn't look very pleased with them i love you thom but other people can have their moment too

  • @mrpenguin159  Yeah........Integrity still counts....

  • 'Thanks ever soo mooch'

  • Hes stoned haha

  • @mrpenguin159 idiot, god, yeah everybody's always stoned, guy who says that to every fucking video

  • whos the guy at 0:21 and 1:52?

  • @hemoglobinHb He's Richard Hawley. You can find the song Only the Ones Who Know where he's singing with Alex Turner.

  • 1:45 is that ...

    is he.......... ??

    

  • @MrVNDTTA if we're talking bout the same person then I guess: yes. but "I might be wrong"...;-)

  • @terrikitakko yesss. is Tom right ??

  • @MrVNDTTA yesss ^^

  • What did Thom Yorke get kicked out?

  • @04twillshaw i think he was talkin about old bass player ahahaha

  • @TheStandofTheLastGuy I heard that as well.

    Probably the funniest comment that has appeared amongst all of their youtube videos. Nicely done sir.

  • haha thom yorke's face at 1:43 is just like 'wtf..'

  • Where's the bass player?

  • someone call 999 richard hawleys been robbed! great! hahaha

  • Alex Likes To Muffle His Hair A Lot!!

  • Comment removed

  • I miss Alex's hair being like that! HE WAS TOO DAMN CUTE <3

  • o:33 THAT WOMAN'S FACE HAHAHAHAHAH

  • they were scared as hell xD

  • ahh, they look soo cute standing up there x Woah what a mean crowd!?! I love it when Alex says 'steady on' his accent is soo cute :) Love the Arctic Monkeys x

  • Alex Turner: Somebody call 999, Richard Hawleys been robbed.

    Matt Helders: Oh yeah, thanks everyone. And who else agrees Jules(Holland) doesn't look like he was born in 1958, does he?

    Both: Oh everybody does.

    Helders: Anyway cheers i've got nothing else to say to that.

    Turner:I mean erm, I don't think i've got anything as funny as that. Nah, thanks to everyone thats helped us and that. Normally it doesn't (the award) go to someone, lets be honest that sells as many records as we have.

  • skoi87, ironically, it is because of how unpretentious they were, in making music about their own lives, about what they knew, that made them popular in the first place. Yeah. I think Alex's inarticulacy might be a bit of an act, but only because he is shy and embarrassed about talking about himself and music he has written.

  • hah I love the way he says "from the album whatever people say I am that's what I am not!" hah. :D

  • whoa whoa whoa steady on!!

  • arent they supposed to have a bass player somewher?

  • Their original bass player already quit by then.

  • I'm watching this again and again, even if i dont understand a word.. they are adorable!

    Can someone please write what they are saying? :)

  • fuck that stupid stuck up crowd

  • how??

  • whoa whoa whoa steady on!!!! hahahaha

  • Everyone has the face like: What is he saying??

  • They look really cute

  • Alex is SO inarticulate when he speaks, yet so articulate when he writes. It's a conundrum! He sound arrogant and daft here I must say, though I know it just came out a bit wrong. Richard Hawley, an amazing talent, but not robbed--not in this case!

  • @lockergr he's not inarticulate it's just another way of speaking, it's called yorkshire. I take it your from the south and you think just because people speak this way there dumb. it's just another way of speaking English it's not articulate or inarticulate if you came up to yorkshire you'd find loads of people speaking like this but there not all 'inarticulate', you southerners piss me off with your judgements,and to think your comments got 28 thumbs up!!

  • @tomoutlane I have followed Arctic Monkeys all over the US--7 shows and follow daily on their American website. I know Alex's every move and most certainly HOW HE TALKS. Look at my page and you might notice that I am a HUGE fan. The one who just bought O'Malley's bass guitar. I was in no way referencing his accent. I am American and I love the way Alex speaks, it was just so common early on that he chewed over his words, or barely said a thing. This has been noted by TONS of journalists.

  • @tomoutlane And, this is likely the most critical thing I've said about Alex or any of the lads on youtube--I know Alex is not daft or inarticulate, but this speech just came across wrong, he sounds a arrogant. I'll agree with your point about his articulateness here though. My comment was made more in broad terms.

  • @lockergr Fair enough, didnt know you were American, its just there's this perception here over in the UK that everyone from the north and Yorkshire especially can't speak properly and therefore are dumb, just because we speak differently to people from Southern England i.e London, i just thought you were another southener digging our accent, sorry had no idea you were a massive fan.

  • @tomoutlane If you think the yorkshire accent is bad you should her mine, Im from wolverhampton hahaha

  • @lockergr Alex Turner puts on an ironic 'im a fucking rockstar' act its ironic because hes the opposite of that hes shy and sweet, and he pretends to be big headed. If you watch their 'A View From...' series on their YouTube hes always a bastard to the cameraman but its a running joke :)

  • @chchchcherrybomb37 Oh, yes. I know all that, but it's good to point out for those that don't. We need more View Froms, but that may never be. :(

  • @lockergr I know, Matt's being a slacker :(

  • haha - thom yorke pulling faces because he was beaten to an award by a bunch of working class lads. fuck him.

  • No it has nothing to do with the fact they are working class, he probably just finds them generic.

  • yeah I don't know why Thom Yorke doesn't like them because a lot of Radiohead fans like both Arctic Monkeys and Radiohead. I wonder why he doesn't like them. maybe he thinks success came too easily for them? dunno. but I really want to know why he doesn't like them. I really love Thom Yorke so much and Jonny Greenwood and the choices that Thom and Radiohead make and their music is amazing so it would be really interesting to find out why he doesn't like them. does anyone know? :) I love both. <3

  • how do you know he doesn't like themm?

  • how do you know tom yorke doesnt like the arctic monkeys ?

  • arctic monkey are by farrrr generic. they do what they want and play music how they want and dont conform in the ways of typical pop culture music.

  • lol what an ironic typo "arctic monkey are by farrrr generic" haha.

    But seriously I've said it before, they sound like The Libertines but with Yorkshire accents.

  • @gedbangsdrums Don't get me wrong, I am a huge fan of Arctic Monkeys, their older tunes as well as their newest album. But, their older music, which they have admitted, wasn't as well thought out or really analyzed mechanically when they recorded their first two albums. All of the songs, musically, are very basic and simple, but for some reason they sound amazing. I can't explain it. It doesn't make any sense. I love the music they've been writing and I suppose that is al that matters.

  • @gedbangsdrums um...wouldn't that make them not generic? if your calling them original in a way, then why say they are generic?

  • @MadderThanTheHatt i didnt say they are generic? ...

  • @gedbangsdrums "arctic monkey are by farrrr generic" thats the first line of the comment...

  • @MadderThanTheHatt as in they are far from being generic? it seems you were the only ONE of 37 people who did not get what i meant. you sir, have just embarrassed yourself in attempt to point out my mistake. I hope you succeeded in what ever the fuck you tried to achieve.

  • @gedbangsdrums im sorry i was confused and felt the need the get clarification. im a literal person, so i took the first line literally. sorry to have offended you with my curiosity

  • @MadderThanTheHatt you are forgiven:]

  • @gedbangsdrums haha good

  • @gedbangsdrums proply because there not a pop band?

  • @gedbangsdrums Rock and Faaackin' Roll baby!

  • Thom Yorke was hardly born into hand me outs. Thom Yorke & Radiohead as a band, are one of if not the most influentual bands of modern times.

    Alex Turner himself they didnt think they would when... to say "fuck him" about Thom Yorke is just beyond stupid and you know fuck all about music. If Thom came out and dissed the Arctic Monkeys then you would of made some sense..... however you've just come across as another Alex Turner bum licker.

    And before your cry, I am a Massive Arctic Monkeys fan

  • were is the bassist?!? andy or nick.

  • I think andy left the the band before they won the award and nick wasn't the offical bassist or something?

  • i think im in love!

    Alex (sighs) x

  • Comment removed

  • matt was so not funny

  • but his little afro was^^

  • You gotta love Thom Yorke doused in blue light <3

  • lol@thom

  • Look at Thom Yorke there, absolute LEGEND. Although i have A LOT of respect they will never ever achieve what Radiohead have.

  • Andy Nicholson was their bassist, and he was the guy who was sitting with them and gave them all a hug. he dropped out because of the fame and whatnot. anywho, all i could think when i saw the three of them walk up and he stayed back was 'PWND!'

  • thom yorke looks so confused

  • OMG Alex is wasted here. Bloody hell

  • Poor Richard Hawley!

  • Call 999 Richard Hawleys been robbed!

  • Aw! Alex is hot and I feel bad for Jamie!!! But when I went to the pool yesterday I saw a lifeguard that looked EXACTLEY like Matt and he had the glasses and everything!!!i dont know if he had an accent cuz he just mumbled when he talked...

  • "Somebody call 999 Richard Hawley's been robbed"! Very funny guys. Love Alex's hair too. They really didnt have anything planned but you know what most peeps say is a load of shit anyway. Its funny how they call CD's records. Tis amusing.

  • OH HI THOM YORKE

  • it really is the worst speech of all time, Thom Yorke and the rest of the audience seem quite confused by what Alex was trying to say. They were probably a bit tipsy.

    Great band.

    btw, what Richard Hawley album was nominated at this time? Coles Corner?

  • Had a tenner on the Guillemots. Won with Klaxons next year though. I love the Mercury Prize
