oh wow, can't we all just appreciate the music? seriously these frigging justin beiber comments are getting old! Yes, most men hate him, me included, but look at him! can you seriously blame him for making that music if it got him to where he is? No, it's not my cup of tea AT ALL but it might not be his either :') everything's money nowadays and he hit the fucking jackpot. Not to mention selena gomez eh? so yeah, listen to this song, it's brilliant, my favourite band. Stop the beiber comments!
in the 1 year or so this video has been uploaded, only one dickhead has been brave enough to click dislike on such a brilliant rendition of a brilliant song.
its incredible how well Alex achieves fitting in with the environment; how he tries to slow down his vocals as if adapting to give the audience a really cool chill out feel, unlike other bigger, concert like spaces in which you have the drums coming in and a real solo, and Alex singing his heart out to achieve a much more jagged tone (Like in the album version). Thumbs up if you think only a real artist like Alex can do that!
@howlinlevi2 goes to show you haven't seen current live performances of commercial crap people who call themselves 'musicians', who even use playback sometimes
@DarkKokiri actually the first response is wrong,, that john guy is John Ashton, he's supporting the monkeys in their live performances for a while now.. james ford is their producer and he is not in the video lol
i think this is a great acoustic version from a real one. his voice still amazing, and yes humbug offer a different sound of arctic including alex's way of singing.
The reason its only two of them is cause its an ACUOSTIC SET the whole point is that its stripped down versions of songs.. So its usually just the lead singer and lead guitarist..
In this case he has john cause he can do both keyboard guitar and backing vocals..
Its still the fucking arctic monkeys, this is just an acoustic set.
@rakusfrakus God I literally can't escape Justin Bieber comments, even here. This should be a safe place, can we all agree to quit mentioning him on good music videos. Furrealz!?
@macarthur19 seriously? You are listening to what has got to be one of the best bands ever in every way and you are even thinking of Justin Bieber? *shakes head in disappointment* you should be ashamed of yourself sir.
this is not the arctic monkeys, this is alex turner and a guy he brought from his other band. i like this, but if i was one of the other members, i would be pissed.
best solo ever.
