the shite in the charts actuall depresses me, when we could have a chart filled with songs like this instead of the chart being ran by talented computers.
They do have a juvenile sound and a distinct teen voice, which is attractive to some ears while not-so-satisfying to others. Let's just leave it at that.
First time I have heard this song was today. I listened to it a few times because the comments made me want to believe it was a really good song. Unfortunately I was mislead. The song is ok but certainly not "the best song ever" as some claimed in their comments. I found the song to have a juvenile sound and to be very unpolished. I imagine it would fit well into a teen scene but not much else. Hopefully their music will mature so it will appeal more to the masses.
@Towndrunk26er hopefully mature? ur user is towndrunk for crying out freakin loud. this song rocks all songs so don't comment crap unless your positive it won't offend someone. this is youtube not a music criticising site geez.
@ISGfritz No it doesn't rock all songs, the highest it ever charted in th U.K. was 5 and the highest in the U.S. was 22 or somewhere, so no it doesn't rock all songs it barely is a flicker. You tube is not a music critic site but this is a comment section and I gave my comment which ahd my opinion just like many other people have given. Sorry you do not agree. Plus I don't see how my username is at all immature since it is just a username.
Normally I find it idiotic when people like Boalsy69 up there bash the ridiculously small minority that make up the dislike column. However there is something about this song that makes me want to punch the people who dislike this song as hard as I can.
@sehzadelee its like hes in love with her but she either doesnt realize it or doesnt appreciate it and he seeks 2 care over her even though she acts in such a self destructive inconsiderate way because its like he feels they have some connection "i know she knows that im not fond asking" so its basically some guy chasing some party animal chick hes in love with
I lovve this song/ the kooks...i swear like every song of theirs just brings a smile to my face and @BeyondAFantasy I totally know what you're talking about! The cute montage of all the actors when they were in highschool at the end of the movie! lol lovve it
@deik013 Oh, I was just joking about Luke Pritchard from the Kooks kicking Alex Turner in the face. I love both the bands too. Kooks and Arctic Monkeys are both boss live as well.

OK so I have read that some people are NOT getting the video*chuckle*. yeah so he has this GF/lover and she is a drunkard slut (that would be the blonde) he has "been there for her",held her hair back while she pukes, etc. maybe he loves her, but just can't anymore, she is getting drunk all the time, and she is sleeping around, even with his buddies,he really wants to see her change,not be so naive, but low and behold, nope, she is still letting him down,that's kinda the scenario here...
