can anyone tell me why humbug era Al is so fucking beautiful???!! I mean that lovely hair, that glowing skin, those dreamy eyes. Maybe because he was in love, that's why. idk!
Alexa Levi It was as a matter of fact cause he was in love , also the fact that these songs he wrote put him in a happier place in his imagination , after the break up with his girlfriend his peaceful and joyful self was shattered and broken . Then he evolved into this greaser tough guy with a jerk attitude , but underneath those shades and leather jackets there is a sensitive and hurt Alex .
The new key works better than the old one, IMO. Alex's voice being deeper than previously just adds to the feel/mood of the song. Love the massive swirling reverb on the keys, and Helders' quite frankly fucking phenomenal drumming. Immense.
Man when you check out tlsp and Arctic Monkeys, Alex is a genius talented artist + an amazing young lad. He's actually a legend in the music industry and all the other musicians are excellent as well
ashamed to say im a new fan of theirs because i live in the us but oh my god this performance got me crying. something about it - maybe how sad alex looks, the way that you can hear the emotion in that riff so clearly, the way the entire performance is so raw, the way alex is singing so softly at the beginning or the fact that the tone is deeper. it just got to me.
He just said "long live humbug era", not that 505 is from FWN. Nobody said that. And yes, even if 505 belongs to FWN, when they played it on the Humbug Era, it was very different, just like it is different when they play now.
i'm going back to 505 if its a 7 hour flight or a 45 minute drive in my imagination you're waiting lying on your side with your hands between your thighs and a smile...
@@Alicoolzafar it's traditional for me to be attracted to good guitar riffs, bass line, drum composition and great range of vocal from which ever bands i listen to for the first time. After that i realise they're good looking too. Seems like a blind audition to find my favourite band according to what they play.
I'm going back to 505 If it's a seven hour flight or a forty-five minute drive In my imagination, you're waitin' lyin' on your side With your hands between your thighs Stop and wait a sec When you look at me like that, my darlin', what did you expect?

Sure, Alex at the beggining of the band looked very cute and nice and suitable for all the fanfiction stuff, but doesn't anyone see this huuuuge gap in quality of his singing? I mean, studio versions are all perfect, but his early live performings were not that good, he was not hitting the right notes and overall his voice sounded kinda strungled, even in this video. Just check 505 live from some 2018 concert, it's sooo much better.
it might be because during this era of the band, for some reason, they switched the key of 505 to C minor instead of D minor (a whole tone lower). idk why they did that, alex looks like he's struggling a lot
I mean...he was barely 20 when FWN came out so he was a pretty good singer for his age... But the whole band were always incredibly tight and well rehearsed,even in the early years, and his occasional voice cracks or incorrect notes (which i honestly rarely ever heard) never bothered me. infact those little mistakes and imperfections made it all that much more soulful... more human
I love his emotional, raw singing at all times, all stages. Personally, I like the live performances of FWN songs of 2007/2008, given that they were performing them still being on the album ''mood'' or ''atmosphere''. 2018 Alex is great at all times, but I much rather hearing him on TBHC than earlier albums, especially due to the extravagant, exaggerate, imponent, huge Bowie accent that doesn't go that well with 505 or My Propeller.
This song is from Favourite Worst Nightmare, I get that the performance is from the Humbug tour but the song is from Favourite Worst Nightmare, I fail to see how pointing this out makes me an idiot.
@AwesomeMawson1 "We`re going to leave you with a song from My Favourite Worst Nightmare." Then he says to his keyboard player, "this is C, meistro" because they used to play the song in a different key. He was just reminding him.
Hi yes I’m 13 years late but I was 4 or 5 when this video came out but the way the instruments just beautifully pile on each other is so consuming. It’s overwhelming and you don’t know where to listen but in a beautiful way for lack of better words.
almost 10 years later and still sounds fresh
Eleven.. and is still fresh
@@sciaki almost twelve 🖤🔥
fourteen and still fresh
13 still, just for a few days...

The humbug hair and humbug voice was the very best,
he looks so wasted in that period
Dude not energetic at all
He was softer, but now he's a douchbag.
How can you tell
Oliver William Quinn
Does it matter? The music and the lyrics are still gorgeous!
'i crumble completely when you cry'
seems like once again, you had to greet me with goodbyes..
I'm always just about to go and spoil a surprise, take my hands off of your eyes too soon
I'm going back 505...

Andrew Cruz literally none of us know the guy. He's a stranger
Charlie Burnham Or is he ????..................
Charlie Burnham let the fangirls live
I love how they play it in Cm in stead of Dm. It gives it a darker feel too it.
Do you think Alex, Jamie and Nick all made a pact to grow their hair the exact same length in 2009?
Surely Matt didn't firm the verbal contract.
Top demais
That’s a great observation. If you’re a chick
alex is mesmerizing, not only as a singer but also as a lyricist
yup, its a shame miles wasnt here too tho
his hair was completely perfect during this era, i can't believe
After 12 years...
It's still shakes my heart
Alex was still wearing his visitor's badge omg
The new key works better than the old one, IMO. Alex's voice being deeper than previously just adds to the feel/mood of the song.

The most tearful riff ever.
every time when I hear "...but I crumble completely when you cry... " ...
I start to cry ...

wow, there is so old comments. we need to remember roots and rewatch this more, u know
I agree
I agree x2
I agree x3
I just ate a biscuit
agreed
Alex is so mesmerising
2:35 sounds so fucking sick
this is the very best era ever existed

You captured the spirit of the song
why you're ashamed?
@@indierockgrrrl6593 cause alotta people shame others for stupid things
@@indierockgrrrl6593probs for just discovering them bc unfortunately now thanks to tiktok ppl think we know of these icons bc of that app
i didnt think this song could get more sensual and also more melancholy
but it happens
"This is a C Maestro"
This is a different key than the original version, which is in D
Curtis Worden D Dorian no less
@@aclyte2679 Didn't know that
@@aclyte2679 what? You are saying 505 is on a Dorian Scale? No way
Stuff like this makes life worth living, so beautiful
I’ve been listening to this band for about 11 years now. My wife is just now becoming their biggest fan ❤️
Best version I’ve seen of this my favorite of their songs.
It is such a strong song. It always gives me chills.
aight, that's my favourite 505 performance now
Alex: where should I put my hand?! where's my guitar?!
... he's so cute
Indeed, their best performance of this song. a masterpiece in the making.
This is the best rendition of this song
He just said "long live humbug era", not that 505 is from FWN. Nobody said that. And yes, even if 505 belongs to FWN, when they played it on the Humbug Era, it was very different, just like it is different when they play now.
Those wavy, fluffy long hair looked pretty. He can pull off any hairstyle.
why does this still amaze me
I've seen them twice but never heard this song live. one day... I hope
I love the bass here....freaking cool. From 1:18 onwards.
AttackMyClone hope you feel the se way after 9 years
@@ReaZeqaj probs!
is Alex got awkward when he sing without his guitar...?
I was wondering the same thing. lol
Yes
they're all so... in the zone
humbug alex is a blessing in every aspect
I just found it out today, but this version is a masterpiece! 🖤
Untouchable piece of art.
2:22 drinking water like a boss
Fantastica, genial, unica, diferente, talento enorme de estos chicos de Sheffield.
💕💖💕💖💕💖🎡💕💕💕💖💖💖💖💖💖💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk cara até o "enorme de" eu tinha 100% ctz de que tu tava falando português
This is actually gold. 😭❤
can't wait to see them live. god I have a crush on alex huehuehuehuehueheuheu
Best performance of this song
Yeap. The bass, the Humbug voice, the C key, and Jamie actually playing the lead bits. Brilliant.
Trnsmt 2018
Alex’s vocals are fucking perfect
Amazing performance of one the the lad's best tunes.
i'm going back to 505
if its a 7 hour flight or a 45 minute drive
in my imagination you're waiting lying on your side
with your hands between your thighs and a smile...
This is beyond great...
he's so gorgeus
I like the pitch of this version of 505...it fits his voice :) And it sounds more dark..which I love ;)
Jamie plays real good this live version of the pretty fucking good song ...
Goosebumps sums this up
my favorite version of this song.
los arctics van por buen camino, siguen inventando su propio estilo sin hacer siempre lo mismo que es lo que les pasa a muchos grupos
Es mi opinion
El resto es historia ❤️
Jajaja pensar que de 2011 a 2014 cambiaron fuertemente sus sonidos y de 2018 a 2022 volvieron hacer lo mismo... Este comentario fue antes de AM
Para mi esta es la canción perfecta ... sin lugar a dudas unas de mi favoritas
This key for 505 is better than the original imo
235 is just the turn to the breakdown of the song
and still good on 2022
Matt Helders drumming like a boss!
i really love this song.
0:54 has head down, reaches for microphone stand, misses.. got to love alex :D
I crumble completely when I hear that part !
He's just a great artist. Admire him for his music, not his looks.
He deserves to be admired in both matters.
exactly. why not both?
I admire him and his look and his soul❤
Yes shallow fangirls probably won't even listen to Arctic monkeys if Alex wasn't good looking.
@@Alicoolzafar it's traditional for me to be attracted to good guitar riffs, bass line, drum composition and great range of vocal from which ever bands i listen to for the first time.

does anyone else get really emotional listening to arctic monkeys ?
Great song , great version
Me enloquece esta rola. Me encanta
Still Im in love for this man! Q
omg!!! Amazing and fantastic!!!
i miss alex's long hair=)
Heather Chan I miss this upload in decent quality. We both cry.
The end is amazing! :)
I'm going back to 505
If it's a seven hour flight or a forty-five minute drive
In my imagination, you're waitin' lyin' on your side
With your hands between your thighs
Stop and wait a sec
When you look at me like that, my darlin', what did you expect?
I'd probably still adore you with your hands around my neck
Or I did last time I checked
Not shy of a spark
The knife twists at the thought that I should fall short of the mark
Frightened by the bite, though it's no harsher than the bark
The middle of adventure, such a perfect place to start
I'm going back to 505
If it's a seven hour flight or a forty-five minute drive
In my imagination, you're waitin' lyin' on your side
With your hands between your thighs
But I crumble completely when you cry
It seems like once again you've had to greet me with goodbye
I'm always just about to go and spoil a surprise
Take my hands off of your eyes too soon
I'm going back to 505
If it's a seven hour flight or a forty-five minute drive
In my imagination, you're waitin' lyin' on your side
With your hands between your thighs and a smile
When Alex tries to reach the microphone... melting
give us a C maestro
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE 505
just perfect
the humbug hair
i effing love you guys!
ahh nice one. thanks
Great track
beautiful
505 mi favorita...

Yeah, he's really evolved as vocalist over the years, it's a shame not many people notice that :(
@@dream_dealer Not that I don't understand nor hate the new him, but young Alex just has that pure raw sound that I very much like
it might be because during this era of the band, for some reason, they switched the key of 505 to C minor instead of D minor (a whole tone lower). idk why they did that, alex looks like he's struggling a lot
I mean...he was barely 20 when FWN came out so he was a pretty good singer for his age...

he's wearing the visitor's badge the whole and not giving a single damn about it
Não tem como não lembrar do Lollapalooza Brasil 2012, ou dos meus amigos... ♥
No, Cm, Dm. in the humbug era they change the key of the song 1 step down
and the original tune is Dm & Em.
cheers
my music
Mell Freitas In terrible quality.
This song is from Favourite Worst Nightmare, I get that the performance is from the Humbug tour but the song is from Favourite Worst Nightmare, I fail to see how pointing this out makes me an idiot.
MASTER
adorei essa versão
this music is so humbug, yet it´s in the previous album!
lovely voice

Thumps up who prefer Cm version!
Just as good today as it was then.so am I alex❤❤❤❤
I don't have words.They're just fucking amazing.And Alex...oh Alex...!

esta es una de mis favoritas algo nostalgica y emotiva ala vez
fetus alex is so adorable
This, here is where he showed where his voice could go. Sounds pretty similar to the way he sings nowadays, specially this song.
