The Little Flames - Put Your Dukes Up John

[Thesleepyminds]

Original... as Original sound.

[cicicitron]

COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

[97rochy]

Me encanta esta cancion, pero solo porque la escuche en el EP de Arctic Monkeys, me gusta más el cover de Actic Monkeys

[Hendrix104]

Great tune, Eva Petersen standing in front of a mic is a mesemerising sight alone ! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr :)

[Chacha5678]

lol sorry arctic monkeys did this way better

[goodtimesontoob]

THIS VERSION IS FUCKING AWESOME!!! I feel like such an ass for knowing about this song for a long time and not listening to the original!

[GPaDLA]

This band is a time machine.. love it. Anything featuring Miles Kane is GOLD.

[axlblue75]

i didnt know that the monkeys version was a cover till now i fell like a tard this is a bitchin song tho haha

[alwaysmusicallybored]

right you cant keep saying every band sounds like the arctic monkeys....... or that the arctic monkeys version is better.....the arctic monkeys arent the greatest band of all time.... bloody hell, this song is great and alex does a fair cover of it but this band are not arctic monkeys wannabees

[TheBlablafunny]

its similar to monkeys sounds! i like it

[lowest69]

Seen the Flames several times, they where a great band. Shame they split as they were doing some interesting stuff, & Eva is a great vocalist.

[LizzyCardenasVIP]

Casi tan genial como The Rascals, me encanta!

[SMMAAACCCC]

Miles Kane should have been the singer!

[sullensally]

@SMMAAACCCC You're a moron.

[jaidoman]

too similar to "take or leave it" from the strokes

[rnrdemon]

@jaidoman shit, you're right, quite similar structure. still love it :-)

[manueltava]

This is epic stuff...Heroes are made of this material.

[Yesirox]

cool jam :)

[tiara19mustika]

Arctic Monkeys cover are way better, but this is still great tho.

[PrimaPunchy]

maybe the only cover by the arctic monkeys that isn't better than the original!!

It never really sounded like them.

It's a shame this band never released an album.

[CrazyGusti]

@PrimaPunchy not at all, I like both versions but the only cover that Arctic Monkeys has done that is not as good or better than the originl is take it or leave it by the strokes they never released it but there's a live video of it here on youtube look for it and you'll see

[cherrulez1]

I remember when they opened up for Sonic Youth in ´92. I was there, it was awesome!

[TheAArmstrong]

@cherrulez1 doubt it they would of been like 7

[TheArcticMonkeyz]

@cherrulez1

hahahaha sucker

[Vinilemoane]

I know this song because of the Arctic Monkeys but wow, this band is great, the girl has a nice voice and the music is very cool.

[ctskiles]

Wow. I can't believe this is the original. Totally thought this was a monkeys song.

I like this version.

[LazyDuckable]

learn your music son

[djondaradio]

i heard the monkeys version first as im sure a lot of people did and i prefer his voice to this one

but still props to these guys for great material

[MLJ284]

Naaaaah, Little Flames, nothing to get het up about. The mismatch in that band was stupid - Eva looked like the rest of the bands mum, at least the ones who became the Rascals. They were a mismatch from the outset, the problem was Eva and partner had more songs than Miles - as the Rascals proved. His hook up with Alex Turner was good for him, but he needs a whole lot of songs before he lives up to any hype that might be wanting to his face on it.

[maxpayne232]

@MLJ284 oh come on. They were still a million times better than what most people are listening to these days.

[LazyDuckable]

@MLJ284 you chat so much bollox. go back to bed you stupid prick

[stimpybird1]

Saw them play in Cambridge years ago before the monkeys et al!

[Purplingmusic]

This honestly kinda rocks. I heard the Arctic Monkeys cover first, so I naturally prefer it, but the original's great.

[ox0HMiiGOdiTsmCrxo]

I LOVE this song. Such an edgy, cool sound. Too bad I can't find this band on iTunes or Playlist or anything! And I can only find the cover of this song by AM which puzzles me.

[TheAArmstrong]

download album off torrent

[iamtheindyman]

love the solo

[theleaders01]

Such an amazing song! Arctic Monkeys is my favourite band but the original version is so much better and Eva is sooooo freakin HOT!

[crazyguy47]

I prefer this to arctic monkeys cover

[Theguitargirl97]

where can i download this????I can't find it and i want itttttttttttttt :(Oh also if I could be someone else for a week...I'd be Eva :D

[Theguitargirl97]

where can i download this????I can't find it and i want itttttttttttttt :(

[SeansCool1]

such an underrated band

[pstrokeslibsarctic]

this is so sonic youth! LOL

[Theguitargirl97]

Love the song Love the videoo :)

[tiara19mustika]

aahh ,, i prefer the arctic monkeys version .

[b00017898]

i'm not so proud of saying this, but Miles Kane looks some like Justin Beiber there.. no.

[GuideToSuburbia]

i never heard this until the cover by the arctic monkeys! BUT. this is a tune! an absolute tune and arctic monkeys didnt make it however good their cover is! Credit the little flames its a cracking tune

[LeGreenGazelle]

And Miles Kane looks so young!

[LeGreenGazelle]

Lead singer's hot.

[beckybbzxxx]

this song is jjust the best in the world!!!! its so good i love it n love the band and arctic monkeys n all that!! yay x

[eizzIzzie]

I prefer Monkeys version more lol. I think her voice is boring! IM not the one who comment this it is ---> /user/exequter

[cherrybomb91]

im an arctics fan but i have to admit that i prefer this version. its slower and grittier, sounds like 60s garage rock. nice!

[PhantomStuka]

Being American I cant even tolerate female vocalists. This just show that the real talent is across the pond.

[thewrongmemories]

Eva has a f*cking pretty voice !!!

[rnrdemon]

I try to ignore these dumbass comments about Monkeys and Rascals, but they are just too annoying. Did anyone here listen to this band before there were The Rascals or that cover of Arctic Monkeys? Obviously not. I agree, that the cover is a good one, but show some respect for the original. Eva Petersen has a great voice, check out her solo stuff on myspace, well, better not, you narrow minded NME kids. Throwing pearls before swine...

[donnybilo]

@rnrdemon  i fucking love you!!!!

[Just8eatit]

@rnrdemon I do get what youre saying, I like the original far better, cause you know.. its original. But you do know that the guitarist from The Little Flames, Miles Kane, is the front man of The Rascals, and is also in a project with Alex Turner, front man of the Arctic Monkeys. So its just as ridiculous to degrade these bands (or their fans), as to say the cover outdid the original cause they covered the tune to honor the original band, and not at all compete with them over their own music.

[Zayandeh38]

@rnrdemon I admit, I only ever heard of the Little Flames initially because of connections to Arctic Monkeys - the cover of this and obviously the Last Shadow Puppets. I was sixteen when this came out and I live in America, no one had it. But you're right, there's no need to compare because Little Flames are great in their own right.

[sullensally]

@rnrdemon PREACH. :)

[rnrdemon]

@sullensally

Haha, kinda. And now that I watch this video and my comment again it actually seems I made a point and people agree. Weird. AMEN!

[sullensally]

@rnrdemon They're both good versions... but I've heard so many AM fans claim this is an AM song. Truly offensive. People need to educate themselves before they open their mouths... what makes it more appalling though is it's usually girls who are simultaneously shitting themselves over Miles Kane. Fuck off. Ugh... people.

[TheFrankDive]

@rnrdemon to be honest, the arctic monkeys one is way better. the pace is better and the vocals are infinitly better too. mile's solo is the only better bit

[rnrdemon]

@TheFrankDive to be honest... oh i forgot what i wanted to say. yawn. oh, yes: i don't care.

[TheAArmstrong]

@rnrdemon go on son

[TheAArmstrong]

@TheFrankDive jump off the fukin bandwagon. i hate people who shit on other bands and constantly compare it to the precious monkeys. Ther second album was shite and ther third mediocre. these guys did an amazing unreeased album so open ur mind a teeny bit and download it.

[LeroyRifkin]

@rnrdemon Do you think you're clever using little idioms like "throwing pearls before swine"? And then a dot dot dot. I know your comment is like a year old but you're still a massive faggot.

[PouKii]

@rnrdemon Hipster-o-meter activated

[joansamo25]

@PouKii it reached the limit and broke-up

[swedishpara]

@rnrdemon i knew the little flames and the rascals before i even knew who the arctic monkeys were and miles kane turned me on to the monkeys after i found out he performed with them live

[spr66]

Sounds slow compared to the arctics cover, but still a good track.

[redhockeycab]

@spr66 it is. about 10 bpm slower

[sharkmen007]

thank you arctic monkeys for turning me on to this band. this is awesome!

[adrianvelazquezjujuy]

artict monkeys and i say the rascals!!!

[sunnypiper]

I have a total girlcrush on the singer lol!

[chik5ful1]

Miles <3

[Sk8EnPaNdA]

why did they beak up?

[harrypottermegan]

the arctic monkeys cover of this song sounds better

[RongGENG60]

what!!???

it's that miles the rascals??

all the rascals line up in there...

this is miles band before the rascals?

[DeafEskimo]

Yeah! Basically the rascals but with a girl as the lead singer! This is why the shadow puppets became so succesful, miles' influences

[RongGENG60]

thanks for the information dude..

but i think TLSP can't succesful without alex ...

then alex and miles combination are great...

[DeafEskimo]

Obviously yes!

Alot of people believe miles to be worthless in the band, but he's really not :D

[AdamWarren1991]

Did you just say TLSP were successful because of Miles Kane? haha

[DeafEskimo]

Music wise yes! They are obviously fuck all without alex, I'm trying to say that miles isn't as useless as everyone thinks!

[15Elliott93]

anyone know where i can get there album from, i have looked on i tunes, amazon and ebay but still cant find it, any help much appreciated :).

cheers

[ohiogizajmazakisan]

rapidshare

[15Elliott93]

thanks

[ohiogizajmazakisan]

this song is sooooo amazing! absolutely love them. from 2:24 - that´s the coolest part of the video.. love this guys

[jellycream3D]

Miles on guitar...Wow, before The Rascals, and the vocalist of The Coral?

[feliperecords]

demasiado weno este tema : D

las guitarras son demasiado cool

[ZuZoOoUn]

Arctic Monkeys ... ?

[folkert6]

They did a cover, it's on "leave before the lights come on"

[B5G5E5]

this song is so cool!, i love the chorus! :D

[daeeggs]

who's john?

[XxVwQu33nxX]

The rascals are better !! Ony cuase i prefer miles voice :L otherwise they are good :)

[janarnhem]

Has this song only been released as a single?

It isnt on their album "The day is not today"...

[velvetrevolver84]

change ur tune and change ur hair or ur not goin anywhere..I love this part :D

[libertine505]

why they broke up!!! why!!!!!!!!!!!

[vlo12]

the arctic monkeys version is a cover?

[lockergr]

Yes, and a damn good one at that!

[dannhewie]

yep as far as i understand

[llllukesssmyth]

dus miles do bakin vocals

[lockergr]

Yep. Proabably why the Artic Monkey's one sounds the same backing wise. He and Miles are friends (you probably know this).

[320cam]

It's weird, her vocals kinda remind me of Jefferson Airplane

[lagman50]

Anyone else noticed that all the Liverpool, including Wirral , bands are signed to deltasonic (ie. coral, rascals, dead 60's)

[XxVwQu33nxX]

one of the guys from the coral is miles kanes cousin :)

[ShinMike]

wtf are you serious?? i always said miles looks a lot like james skelly, england is so small hehe!

[saulong25]

You Know Who?!!

[XxVwQu33nxX]

whatt ? james skelly is miles' cousin :L :) x

[lesjourstristes22]

thanks

i didn't know

i love that song

[lesjourstristes22]

can anyone explain to me what put yor dukes up means?

[debaser223]

put your fists up i.e. fight

[AnnemieHeffie]

Oh thank you!

I've been wondering this for years! x)

[lesjourstristes22]

It's not the Rascals, it's the Little Flames.

[KerreyTheBitterSugar]

her voice is hypnotizing

[desmond17oreilly]

this is the 1st time iv heard the original....so obviously im gona prefer the arctic version..to be honest this cant b compared to the all along the watchtower debate...simply because when hendrix covered dylan he gave the song a new dimension....arctics just replicated the song with a new singer...great tune though

[D0gGeRs]

Holy Fuck .. It's MILES KANE! And His Band, THE RASCALS

[Kesterminator]

its the little flames..

[karolina4690]

does anyone know how i can download this?

[naufragosediento]

i like this girl she haves the best utero ever

[joaopapas]

wtf?

[arkmnk]

whose song is this one, actually? the little flames or AMs?

[ffvicomte]

the little flames'

[mazzascotty]

nothings wrong with it, just looks dead different!

[norriei]

good tune :)

[mazzascotty]

haha mile's hair!

[indieboikilla]

what wrong with his hair,

i think its cute and i have the same too :D

[kakaze]

a travesty they broke up, the little flames beat the rascals big style. the rascals bloke just can't sing.

[retrogreg]

wonder what that lass is doing now? any1 know?

[indieboikilla]

i rekon she probably got stuck in my closet

i love her so much =D

[antBELGRE]

i like little flames and especially their style of their music, not the rascals, arctic monkeys are good but really simple at their music and last shadow puppets are a bad copy of something but i don't know what :p the original is better than the cover, but i agree also with CausticParadox

[CausticParadox]

I don't know why everyone if fighting on which is better. There both good. And it's a matter of opinion! SO stop. If you prefer one over the other that's cool, just don't go out and say the other sucks. Because oveously, the Arctic Monkeys liked it enough to cover it! I love the Arctic Monkeys, but I can at least admit that this is great too! And once again, it has to be good if the band liked it enough to cover it!

[adam1phoenix]

The cover is better than the original

[nogac009]

Arctic Monkeys kick ass! This chick cant sing

[louiecostello]

and alex turner can???

and since 1976 99% of the singers coming out of england cant sing. who cares?

[thisisatrueeestory]

i like alex's voice much more obviously so YES THE COVER IS BETTER

[spitfire90]

arctic monkeys and little flames are quiche. strokes ftw

[gustavoalucard]

The cover is better than the original, ok?

[Wheelz12]

NO.

[studaniels07]

arctic's rule fuck you all

[utubecansuckit]

good bajs

[Nigz98]

to the people who say monkeys version is better

how the fuck can it be if its a fuckin cover

nothing better than the origimal

best lost band ever after mumm-ra

[yurksemesh]

"to the people who say monkeys version is better

how the fuck can it be if its a fuckin cover"

that's such a stupid thing to say. there's loads of songs where the cover is better than the original, although this isn't one of them

[Nigz98]

but the cover cant be better...cause its a cover its not the original therefore it cant be better by mental standard

[neaiancu]

it's better if you like it more ... take 'all along the watchtower' by bob dylan for example ... the original version is so boring ... than jimi hendrix made it a classic

about this song, the monkeys version is one of my least favorites songs from their catalogue ... the original version is almost the same ... but between the two, i like alex turner's voice more, so there you go, the cover is better

[louiecostello]

i'm glad that the type of people who say bob dylan is boring is the same type that prefer the arctic monkeys version to this. it means less theres less of you to hate

[neaiancu]

i like bob dylan, but that song is boring compared to the hendrix version ... if there was no cover than that song would be better, because then you had nothing to compare it to, you wouldn't have known how much better it could get

about this song, i said the two versions were almost the same, and the difference is the singer's voice ... you do have favorite singers, right?

[louiecostello]

well fair enough... i wouldn't say bob's version is boring though. it has more depth than hendrix's version even though hendrixs version is better.

and yeah i suppose you did. poor old little flames, the worst thing to happen to them was the arctic monkeys covering this.

i take back what i said then. unless you like queen, in which case i dont take back what i said and times it by two

[failedthedrugtest]

I like this version better the Arctic monkeys'. It's raw.

[failedthedrugtest]

*than

[erin301194]

luv this song sooo much!!! probably prefer the arctic monkeys as a band but this is better than their cover!

[loto159]

not as good as arctic monkeys cover

[losvegetales]

? this ones better mate

[123scubasteve123]

Tbh, this is good, but i prefer the Monkeys version.

The singer has a really good voice, but its too slow i think, and i really like the intro the Monkeys done, faster and cleaner.

Still a choon in general tho

[schizizm]

i love both versions, but theres really not much difference between the two, except for the singer of course, and i just love alexs voice, so my vote goes 4 the monkeys, although the solo in this one comes much more from the heart

[douggie22]

this shitts on the monkeys cover

[davnut]

the arctic monkeys version sounds way better by MILES. but the girl is pretty fine.:P gotta give her that

[mesmerikmetiuskelvin]

she don't sing well

arctic monkeys are better

[dakidz]

nope, the little flames are much better than arctic monkeys. I like the monkeys, but most of their songs are easily forgettable unlike the little flames.

And eva sings well, she sounded just like a 60's century girl. You obviously have not listened to their album.

[joostariens]

she just sounds like jefferson airplane

[antBELGRE]

can you please explain me the meaning of the song? what does "put your dukes up john" mean anyway? :D .What's the lyrics about?

The singer is really really hot in that dress with that hair.!.

Also, i think i like more this version than the monkeys' one

[gypsyhater]

dukes = fists.

[sp33glar]

i think its about like their producer or something like he wants to change their looks and sound and so there like saying hell no. at least thats what i think

[sp33glar]

i said like alot, soz lol

[sh7de]

put your dukes up = prepare for a fight/defend yourself

[RobotHell]

awsome!

[russelsheartinacage]

eva petersen is a goddess

[calumn505]

ever noticed how arctic moneky always cover songs sung by girls, this diamonds are forever, love machine, and an amy winehouse song

not bagging them or anything, they rock, just saying

[creinstein]

they also covered take it or leave it by the strokes

[YtLena]

and Pat Farrell and The Believers, so it's not just girls :P

[4296742]

ever notice how miles kane pedal board and style sounds a lot like alex's hmmm...

[knuckdow]

And Baby I'm Yours - Barbara Lewis

[indiekingjack]

and bad woman by Patrick Sickafus

[indieciso]

ahahaha esta canción es re xevere...!

Eva Petersen te amo.

j'aime

[POOKIEFILMS]

i wouldnt say arctic monkeys version is better but i'd say its a kick ass cover of this song :P i &hearts; the little flames they rock

[dragoneon]

i'm sorry for the little flames... they just split this summer... and their song is famous... but because of OTHER BAND!

but the arctic monkeys are so damn better...

as huhluh said...

this is still kickass

have you heard of the rascals they are the band that came after tlf they got miles, greg and the drummer in it and they are bloody amazin
