Alex Turner does a great job singing this; it's not an easy song to pull off. Amy's music sounds easy enough on the ear, but it is full of musical/emotional tonal trips and modulations.
The pronouns, the song, the singer, the bassist, the guitarist, the drummer, the band, the rhythm, the everything, it's amazing and it's only a cover. THE COVER.
@@jacktangent It's the fact he keeps the he/him pronouns of the original song instead of changing them to being she/her like some people do when singing covers. Also I completely agree with OP. It's truly THE COVER.
I have so much more respect for Alex Turner and the rest of the band after hearing this. It's a song explicitly about a relationship with a man, and he did it fabulously. Not only did he not try to change the pronouns-- honestly, I don't know how they would've managed it in a song like this-- there's this subtle thing: in Amy Winehouse's version, the lyric is "You tear men down like Roger Moore"; here, he distinctly says "You tear ME down like Roger Moore". This could be a simple misheard word, but I think he meant to make that change, affirming that he's singing the song as a man, as opposed to singing it from a woman character's perspective (something Pearl Jam does often). Honestly, that means so much to me: there are so few songs about same-sex relationships, you know? And that these guys, who I'm fairly sure identify as straight, were mature enough to cover this song and do it right... I don't know, it's something I appreciate. Also: great tune.
Well, Roger Moore is best known for his stint as James Bond, who has a kind of misogyny that some women find appealing even though they know it's not good for them, so it would not make sense for the word "men" to be in Amy's lyrics.
way different song... considering nirvana and AM are my most favorite bands ever... they made a song called “rape me” (yes it’s very severe) but kurt (the main vocalist/“face of the band”) wrote the song about pieces of shit that obviously do shit like this... it just reminded me how they both didn’t give a fuck who would care and really made a point
vertigoEdits, good people? So what if people change the pronouns or don't change them! It's still the bloody same song. Seriously people these days with all this bullshit.
+Sebastian Johnson dude, YOU just don't care. and that's fine. it's a little stupid, but still fine because it's (mostly) harmless. but you're in no place to say it's bullshit when people do care about something that is ONLY a positive thing. that's when it's not harmless. try thinking deeper (for once) and wonder why not changing pronouns is a good thing
+vertigoEdits, How is not changing the pronouns a positive thing? People always change the pronouns and even little words when they are covering song. It truly does not matter if they say he or she it is a cover it is meant to be at least a bit different the way they sing it.
Meet you dowstairs in the bar and hurt, Your rolled up sleeves in your skull t-shirt, You say 'What did you do with him today?', And sniffed me out like I was Tanqueray, 'Cause you're my fella my guy, Hand me your Stella and fly, By the time I'm out the door, You tear men down like Roger Moore, I cheated myself, Like I knew I would, I told you I was trouble, You know that I'm no good, Upstairs in bed with my ex boy, He's in a place but I can't get joy, Thinking on you in the final throes, This is when my buzzer goes, Run out to meet you, chips and pitta, You say 'when we married', 'cause you're not bitter, 'There'll be none of him no more', I cried for you on the kitchen floor, I cheated myself, Like I knew I would, I told you I was trouble, You know that I'm no good, Sweet reunion Jamaica and Spain, We're like how we were again, I'm in the tub, you on the seat, Lick your lips as I soap my feet, Then you notice like carpet burn, My stomach drop and my guts churn, You shrug and it's the worst, Who truly stuck the knife in first I cheated myself, Like I knew I would, I told you I was trouble, You know that I'm no good, I cheated myself Like I knew I would I told you I was trouble, You know that I'm no good.
I've always thought they'd do a good cover of lily Allen - smile Its to the point where I can almost hear it in my head and I don't know if they actually did it at some point
I always imagine myself singing this at a low lighting, small stage in a bar down the street, with a stool next to me consisting of an ash tray with cigarette butts put out, and a quarter full glass of fine whiskey
It's a good cover! They didn't change the lyrics or the rhythm. I think this is as good as the original. *of course, Alex doesn't have Amy's voice. Perhaps that's why it sound a bit rare
I really appreciate this cover, especially since they didn't change the pronouns. I love Amy and never have i heard a cover of this song that didn't make me want to kill whoever was singing except this one. They did a great job and i like the twist of Alex's voice.
Meet you downstairs in the bar and heard Your rolled up sleeves and your skull t-shirt You say why did you do it with him today? And sniff me out like I was tanqueray 'Cause you're my fella, my guy Hand me your stella and fly By the time I'm out the door You tear me down like Roger Moore I cheated myself Like I knew I would I told ya, I was troubled You know that I'm no good Upstairs in bed, with my ex boy He's in the place, but I can't get joy Thinking of you in the final throws, this is when my buzzer goes Run out to meet your chicks and bitter You say when we're married cause you're not bitter There'll be none of him no more I cried for you on the kitchen floor I cheated myself Like I knew I would I told ya, I was troubled You know that I'm no good Sweet reunion, Jamaica and Spain We're like how we were again I'm in the tub you're on the seat Lick your lips as I soak my feet Then you notice lickle carpet burn My stomach drops and my guts churn You shrug and it's the worst To truly stuck the knife in first I cheated myself Like I knew I would I told ya, I was troubled You know that I'm no good I cheated myself Like I knew I would I told ya, I was troubled You know that I'm no good
Smd y'all Look she’s one of the best artists to walk this earth, and obviously her song is fantastic, but this one has an eerie dark vibe which I love, compared to the more pop Amy one
I wish alex would sing this again considering how much his voice has developed
Nelly LM YES
A Box fuck off
He does sound a bit drunk when he sings/speaks but that somehow adds something to his style. He can't be the same guy forever.
A Box you saying he still would have the same voice to when he was like 17?

That bassline is brilliant
the bass and drums are so tasty
Why isn't this on spotify ughhhhhhhhh
I feel ya ;-;
it’s a cover
Jamie Cirne So? Their diamonds are forever cover is on Spotify
Rory Whelan no it's not
Jamie Cirne I beg to differ. A simple search will answer your question :)
I honestly kinda prefer this cutier and less-mature voice
Despite TBHC is my favourite album, I think every album-era is another wolrd from each other
yeah. if they hope the same old performance from arctic monkeys, they better stop the time.
WPSIATWIN will never, ever be topped
Love the line "You tear me down like Roger Moore"

im pretty sure the original is you tear ME down
Levi Dylan Graham It's a cover of an Amy Winehouse song
Levi Dylan Graham thanks!
Lol bit of a stretch
Alex Turner is singing this song from a girls point of view and I'm sure he doesnt give a fuck.
So no one else should, either really.

how did i JUST come across this???

And sniffed me out like I was Tanqueray,
'Cause you're my fella my guy,
Hand me your Stella and fly,

I told you I was trouble,
You know that I'm no good,
Upstairs in bed with my ex boy,
He's in a place but I can't get joy,
Thinking on you in the final throes,
This is when my buzzer goes,
Run out to meet you, chips and pitta,
You say 'when we married',
'cause you're not bitter,
'There'll be none of him no more',
I cried for you on the kitchen floor,
I cheated myself,
Like I knew I would,
I told you I was trouble,
You know that I'm no good,
Sweet reunion Jamaica and Spain,
We're like how we were again,
I'm in the tub, you on the seat,
Lick your lips as I soap my feet,
Then you notice like carpet burn,
My stomach drop and my guts churn,
You shrug and it's the worst,
Who truly stuck the knife in first
I cheated myself,

You know that I'm no good.
holy fuck I love you Alex for singing this song!!!
Man these guys are underrated as fuck! This is an amazing and difficult cover to pull off and they executed it perfectly
tone rodriguez not really underrated but I get what you mean
I've always thought they'd do a good cover of lily Allen - smile
Its to the point where I can almost hear it in my head and I don't know if they actually did it at some point
I had no idea this existed but this is so good oh my god
this is a masterpiece
It is!! I love the original but it makes me sad, this version makes me want to party 🤣
how have i not heard this already?!
I always imagine myself singing this at a low lighting, small stage in a bar down the street, with a stool next to me consisting of an ash tray with cigarette butts put out, and a quarter full glass of fine whiskey
i mean, you're alex, after all

Beautiful
I love their cover soo much but Amy will always going to stay in my heart
world's greatest artist. not open to discussion.
I love this cover. He seems to also be channeling Julian Casablancas pretty hard right here too.
Timothy McPherrin love them both.. probably my two favorite voices of the century
he just wanted to be one of the strokes, man...
why the challenge???
Awuantiaaa alto cover
The band was born classic!
This cover is GOLD
I love those drums.
I'm in love with this song.
You know that song it's good... very good!
Fantastic version fucking hell
Alex has got beautiful voice, and although i like it more at his 5th/6th albums, here he sounds just perfect.
Very great version!
RIP Amy Winehouse
I LOVE this 😍 My favorite band of all time covering Amy Winehouse. ❤
This song is priceless 😟🕔
It's a good cover! They didn't change the lyrics or the rhythm. I think this is as good as the original. *of course, Alex doesn't have Amy's voice. Perhaps that's why it sound a bit rare
excellent cover! loved it! fabulous version! =)
