The “don’t believe the hype” call is nearly as legendary as the song itself. Very humble.
In an interview a few years ago he said he said that because he actually hates this song, thinks the lyrics are bad and didn’t like the fact that it got so much attention bc he didn’t want AM to be known just from this song 🤣
@@katec8727 Really? Wow. This is such a good song. It never occurred to me, that you could hate your own music. Is this the song where he said "When we wrote this song it meant very little to us and tonight, it means even less."
It's Alex Sis! Lol, yes it was! Alex is super hard on himself. I wonder how he felt about that being the song that he was told to play at the London 2012 opener
Also turns around and does the most dramatic first strum thing (I don’t play guitar sorry) I have ever seen
waiting for LADIES to be a legendary as its prodecessor
Love how he speaks perfectly while singing but cant say a single word when he is just talking.
Just like Ozzy.
Classic alex turner
Like 2d from gorillaz
Lmaooo that is so true
@Malice Catastrophe knock it off
THE VOICE CRACKS ARE EVERYTHING
IKR 😅
The voice cracks remind me of myself trying to sing Mardy Bum.
@@Hi-rb9kf Or anything lmao 😂 hi again
@@st7rlette yes. I can only really sing a few songs by them without my voice cracking.
@@Hi-rb9kf I see you everywhere lol
Honestly I don’t know how Alex became so good in making melodies and writing lyrics. Like bro words can’t explain how good they are. Arctic monkeys is fucking iconic
Hes amazing at song writing but his lyrics are alright
what a taleent
@@peepeepoopooman-qs3jq well these arent the best, but i'd say he is a successor to jarvis cocker in songwriting
@@peepeepoopooman-qs3jq Dunno man, his lyrics on Tranquility Base Hotel + Casino are pretty damn good if you ask me 😅
Dude anytime I go to write a song I just think of what Alex Turner would say and I hit writers block because that dude is an amazing lyricist. I’m a huge nerd and love English; but the words he chooses are words I’d never think to say and or use. I do believe listening to this band can help enhance one’s vocabulary.
That smile and wink at 0:44 - 0:50 "Yeah, I nailed that!". Drummer approving his own performance after the 2 lines.😆
that was _adorable as heck_
lmao this video has the best comment section ever
Wow arctic monkeys has so many indian fans arctic monkeys should come to india
Shag worthy
Also, the check-in at 1:26
the drummer is the true star of this band
shmeek07 have you seen him playing with Iggy Pop and Josh Homme? He’s class!!!!
he is brilliant a bit more Keith Moon than Neal Peart
Matt is the greatest of his era!
Reincarnation of Keith moon
Nah Micky Dee is better and the Police Drummer Stewart Copeland would have no probs drumming an Arctic Monkeys set..

I can’t help but keep coming back to this video, with my headphones on and the volume up high. I’m a 62 year old grandfather, I drink whiskey, vodka and Sherry now instead of rolling spliffs and grazing on ‘shrooms’ but I still play air guitar to this, while my wife sleeps and snores in her recliner! God I wish I was 19 again. This so reminds me of our garage band in the late 70s, thrashing away on my Les Paul copy through a Peavey combo with my mates on their Fender Jazz bass and cheapo Japanese strat copy and a battered Premier drum kit that had seen many better days! Youth is definitely wasted on the young. Love live rock. 😎✌️
same mate.
This is so cute! Rock on, sir
Goat comment
This comment reminds me how very little I’m doing in my life. I’m 19 and hardly go outside, if I do, it’s just to the shops. Cheers to that.
@@sweetestaphroditethat’s not really your fault Aphrodite. It’s your generation’s biggest problem - the inability to get out and socialise, the way my generation did. Social media is the problem because it prevents young people from developing their social skills. You can only do that in the company of others, NOT via a screen or, more commonly now, via avatar (not the actual person at all!!!). That’s very sad. I feel sorry for all those who lock themselves away. That’s not a healthy way to live. Get out more. Join a club of like-minded people, no matter what it is.

Raw youthful energy, like early Jam. That's when Bands are at their best.
if you like arctic monkeys you should check out Lonely Gimmick - Grumpy Days, it gives me early arctic monkeys vibes and is a great new indie track
Never be like the jam no where near sorry
@@raymondvaughan6262 Writing as someone who thoroughly enjoyed The Jam when they were around, they were extremely inconsistent, releasing possibly two fine albums and a lot of filler. Arctic Monkeys in 2005/6 showed all the energy, spark and songwriting that Weller, Foxton and Buckler had previously demonstrated. Their career since then has borne out that early promise.

Lyrics [Verse 1] Stop making the eyes at me I'll stop making the eyes at you What it is that surprises me Is that I don't really want you to [Pre-Chorus] And your shoulders are frozen (Cold as the night) Oh, but you're an explosion (You're dynamite) Your name isn't Rio, but I don't care for sand And lighting the fuse might result in a bang, b-b-bang-oh [Chorus] I bet that you look good on the dancefloor I don't know if you're looking for romance or I don't know what you're looking for I said, I bet that you look good on the dancefloor Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984 Well, from 1984 [Verse 2] I wish you'd stop ignoring me Because it's sending me to despair Without a sound, yeah, you're calling me And I don't think it's very fair [Pre-Chorus] That your shoulders are frozen (Cold as the night) Oh, but you're an explosion (You're dynamite) Your name isn't Rio, but I don't care for sand And lighting the fuse might result in a bang, b-b-bang-oh [Chorus] I bet that you look good on the dancefloor I don't know if you're looking for romance or I don't know what you're looking for I said, I bet that you look good on the dancefloor Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984 Well, from 1984 [Bridge] And no, there in't no love No Montagues or Capulets Just banging tunes and DJ sets and Dirty dancefloors and dreams of naughtiness [Chorus] Well, I bet that you look good on the dancefloor I don't know if you're looking for romance or I don't know what you're looking for I said, I bet that you look good on the dancefloor Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984 Said, from 1984

This song will forever stay an absolute banger. WPSIM is easily my favourite album of the band and the one I hold dearest to my heart. It's a masterpiece from beginning to end, youthful, cheeky, playful. The topics Alex Turner is discussing may seem childish or superficial but he's put them into words in such a way that you can't help but admire his lyrical genius. And the lyrics are not even the highlight of the album for me, it's the banging rhythm, guitar solos and just how each song sounds completely different and original but is a complete banger alone, and in the context of the others. Unfortunately, I won't ever experience listening to this album live the way they used to play it back in 2006/7. Obviously artists grow and evolve, not necessarily into something better but something different. The energy WPSIM had is incomparable to newer stuff from the Monkeys and other newly-emerging bands but maybe that's why it will stay so special for me and a whole generation that was there to experience it in their teen years.
Stop asking who's still listening in 2021, we never stopped listening
These guys were still late teens/ early 20s during this performance, thats insane to have that much talent at that age!
@Nicholas Kitto I think you need to do your own research since this was released in 2005 and all of the band members were born in like 85/86, that would make them 19/20 at the oldest, possibly 18 depending on if it was recorded before their 19th birthdays. So where did you get mid twenties from??
@Nicholas Kitto that's insane that you can be so narcissistic that you can try to make a stranger look stupid while making yourself look even more stupid
@Nicholas Kitto is that all you've got to say for yourself? 😂 I can use apostrophes just fine thanks! And I'm far from crying. I'm laughing my head off at you moron trying to tell ME I'm wrong 🤣 are you American by any chance? 😂😂

I honestly like this song better in this video than in the actual record. It's a slightly faster tempo, and for some reason just gets me amped so much more.
16 years baby!!
Important moment of british rock history right here, a bunch of scruffy teenagers from sheffield breaking records and just having a laugh
+MonkeyTurtle100 That's happened many times, though. Most rock bands started that way, Stones, Beatles, Zepplin, Cream etc.
+MonkeyTurtle100 That last time that had happened was 11 years previous when five lads from council estates in Manchester did something similar.
***** you can't they cast too big a shadow in recent British music.
Fuck the way their egos grew and how they forgot where they came from, but I still have respect for how they were when they started.

Nah I doesn't look like 90 if you lived in 90s you could tell the difference come on :D

they were better back then to be honest
Agreed and Disagreed. They arent worse now. They are just diferent. Some of the new songs are awesome dude! Take a look at Linkin Park! Now your opinion will be realy valid for me XD
***** I dont think they are better or worse now. They are just different
Legendoforion Rhys I like more Do I Wanna Know, that When the Sun Goes down, and have listened to them for a long time
***** No way their music is way simpler now, AM is probably they're most simple album yet apart from a few songs. I think the only part of they're music that's more advanced now is Alex's lyrics.
***** But you didn't state that you were making that point based on this song. There's plenty of songs on AM that are a few chords repeated like; No.1 Party Anthem, I Want It All, I Wanna Be Yours, Fireside. Sorry but I disagree with your point
I'm addicted to this fucking song.
It's simply amazing
lmao man it's mad lit
listen to Brianstorm then..
it's fun to play. doing lead guitar in a band i did the solo which Is awesome. although the lead singer said she'd do the rhythm parts which meant I didn't play like half the song, it was still gr8 to play
Nathan Hofmann so am I but I hate it
This looks so vintage
2:28 OR WHAT I love it gets me every time
the day music was reborn. AM is still genius
I remember one time, at a restaurant, we were eating and I was listening to the music they were playing (it was mostly remixes of 2009-2013 songs to avoid copyright) and then I just hear "We're the Arctic Monkeys, this is "I bet you look good on the dance floor, don't believe the hype." I almost choked on my fish
Veryidiotic 😂😂😂
