  • i'm crying so hard now :'(

  • there's nothing special about being 17

  • @Chacha5678 its special to him because the story is about an old man whos wife just passed away and seventeen is very special because thats when he met his young love.

  • reminds me soo much of the movie "Up". so sweet. <33

  • This has some of the same music from "the meeting place" like towards the end. Anyone else hear it or notice it? both songs are great though.

  • Comment removed

  • absolutely beautiful.

  • From folded notes in envelopes

    "Meet me beneath the moon"

    Don't go too soon

    She went too soon

  • @JamieCal505 oh my god it makes me cry

  • lol I know several places I can get a echo like this! beautiful little song

  • I'm melting.

  • AMAZINGGG!!

  • AWESOME MELODY im in love

  • JOEY FRITZEL EATS PRETZELS

  • What a perfect little gem of a song. I actually thought this was a cover of some song from the early 60s at first. Well done.

  • yhh...i think okgo's interpretation of this song is about the same as mine....

    I <3 this song !!!!!!!!

    i love last shadow puppets.......what do ya think.....arctic monkeys or last shadow puppets?

  • thats a tough one there different both awesome arctic monkeys were really really good live

  • mmm I think is about an old man..slowly walking down the steps ) who goes back to a place were he and her girfriend met..then he remembered that time..and he started to cry..(His face became wet) The time has come again..maybe the time he remembers her??

    If they only were seventeen again and go back in time.....I don't know if it what the songs means....this is my personal interpretation... : )

  • i think more personally, it could be about his ex girlfriend.. Maybe :)

  • Yeah, I listened to it again and maybe it has nothing to do with the age..the age it's not really important

  • Can please somebody tell me what this song is supposed to be about? Thx.

  • they are sooo brilliant♥

  • this song is so sad, makes me wanna cry

    "without permission his face became wet

    he thought that he'd learnt how to not get upset

    from folded notes

    in envelopes

    meet me beneath the moon

    dont go too soon

    she went too soon"

    Wish I've never felt that way :<

  • @ShinMike plain beautiful and tragic...love it

  • "If only they were seventeen"

  • Their voice kills me. So powerful

  • Bring me to my knees, Please :) <3

  • there music is great, but still i think that alex is better off with the arctic monkeys....

  • @nemix222 he can do both, i like both

  • Who's the girl on the cover?

    She's beautiful.

  • shes a model from 60's

  • Her name is gill she's a model from Sam Haskins' "Five Girls"

  • is that the cover of their album?

  • yes

  • Ohhh, I love the puppets, their sound is so retro...that´s cool!

  • dead good song :) lsp just sorta grow on you.

  • i have to admit im starting to agree with you, very mellow miles from the rascals is a good story teller in a way, they just add sweet music

  • this song is just loveley (: there the best band in the world

  • pretty good song, but not the best song so far

  • keep it up Miles and Alex ;)

  • Amazing! The Last Shadow Puppets really grow on you over time.

  • saw them the other night, front row!! bloody amazing live!! was wel impressed with miles love this song so much :)

  • i like it when he says: if only they were 17 in the end

  • yeah, good fuckin good!

  • good fuckin good

  • what a nice rithm , loooove it!!

  • this song is amazing!

  • this song is wrote for alex turner and his voice. perfect.

  • good fuckin good

  • brill brill brill brill brill love it :D

  • Love this song!

  • its about an old man and an old woman, i KNEW it!!!!!! :D this song actually is amazing. i put it on repeat everyday for like 3 weeks once

  • so sweet....

  • Good to know I'm now the only one who's getting chills listening to this song.

    I just knew this band for 10 minutes and have only listened to 3 of their songs, and I find myself a fan already ;D

  • Perhaps if this band performed at Glastonbury instead of bloody Jay - z it might have been a sell out. This guy has a talent to write a decent song, just listen to it. Great orchestration on it just adds layers to the sound - lush.

  • The man who wrote this is, afterall, Alex Turner who is undoubtedly a lyrical genius. This song is just plainly beautiful.

  • i thought this song was about something beautiful.

    Josef Fritzl? yuck, well thats put me off the song

    i hope it isnt about him!!!

  • No, it'isnt about Josef Fritzl ! This song was written before policemen caught this bastard ! this song is actually about an old man whose wife has just died. he keeps on thinking about her and when they were young ! that's it ! Thanks for leaving a comment on my video ! see ya !

  • Turner=genius

  • wow! chills me right out!!!.....awsome!:)

  • this song is beautiful!

    i love the bit:

    "without permission his face became wet

    he thought that he learned how to not get upset"

  • Such a poignant song about Josef Fritzl.

    "If only they were seventeen"

    It's beautiful.

  • Yes.

    I love it so much =]

  • It's an amazing song =)

    Is it actually about Josef Fritzl?

  • what is this song about sounds like there is a story behind it ........ any thoughts

  • awesome song and cd

  • this is the last cd's song, and maybe the best too, but i'm sure that it is the best end. this song makes you want to listen to the cd again and again.

  • oh no I'm almost crying! (well not really)

    but who knew Alex Turner could be all nice and emotional? Miles must be bringing out the best in him, nice job there =)

    great song

  • Did you not listen to Fluorescent Adolescent? 505? Do me a favour?

  • good point there, and 505 is one of my favorite songs.

    well anyway it's a nice song

  • Sorry if I sounded a little harsh, though. But yeah, its one of Alex' more emotional...er songs. (Im not sure what the right word in english is.)

    Anyway, I really think Alex had more of a part in this song than miles, because I can just somehow really picture this song on the B-side of Fluorescent adolescent, for example... Nonetheless, great song. GREAT song. (I see this as the kind of music that's still played after 20 years. Prove me wrong.) ((Longest Youtube post I ever made btw.))

  • true, i can definitely see this as a FA b-side

    =)

  • im in love with this song :'(

  • Yeah it's a great song, really grows on you

  • butterflies in my stomach and a tear in my eye.

  • A certain romance..

  • this is my favourite track from the whole CD!

    :] its charming.

  • Me too=]

    love the Last shadow puppets. :]x

  • OMFG.. I don't know what to say.. I'm dead. Fantastic, brilliant, great, awesome,...
