The cinematography is phenomenal. The song is incredible. Alex's voice is magical

[arthurfortunato]

I love when artists don't care what people will think and do exactly what they want

[samyorke]

Not to be dramatic, but hearing this song live was an out-of-body experience

[kaelinjoel]

The boys are getting older. And it breaks my heart. And makes me smile. Thanks Arctic Monkeys.

[FirestarRoxMySox]

the name “Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not” is still getting mileage every time they produce a gorgeous new album full of sound they’ve never quite explored before, i love seeing what they do next everytime 🥰

[rebeccamayers]

STILL A TRACE OF BODY PAINT ON YOUR LEGS AND ON YOUR ARMS AND ON YOUR FACE🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️🔥

[leona]

This song is, in my opinion, the best song that reveal the magic of Alex's voice, plus the harmonies are marvelous. I am in love with the arrangement of this song, it's not what I'm familiar with. The strings and electric guitar go so well together and nobody can convince me otherwise

[AdrianoMacedo]

Are we just gonna ignore the line
"Do your time traveling through the tanning booth
So you don't let the sun catch you crying"
This is extraordinary poetry

[nathancroucher]

What an absolute Sheffield songwriting treasure Alex Turner is.

Alex gives us a real sense of place through his lyrics whilst the band constantly surprise us musically.

Domino Recording Company have allowed the Arctic Monkeys so much creative freedom over the years when any other label would have pressured the band to repeat themselves instead of evolving.

[RealJoseph]

I don’t care what anyone says. This is one of the best Arctic Monkeys songs, and the album is overhated.

[elliemorrison]

How can anyone hate this album, this is pure soul music. I drift away to another planet when I listen to it.!!

[MrDalekJD]

I can't get over how incredible this song AND video is. Everything is just PERFECT. 😍

[ProductDesignKF]

the fact that music like this is still being made in 2022 is what keeps me going

Body Paint Lyrics
[Verse 1]
For a master of deception and subterfuge
You've made yourself quite the bed to lie in
Do your time travelling through the tanning booth
So you don’t let the sun catch you crying

[Chorus]
So predictable, I know what you're thinking

[Verse 2]
My teeth are beating and my knees are weak
It's as if there’s something up with the wiring
You can poke your head behind the mountain peak
Don't have to mean that you've gone into hiding

[Chorus]
So predictable, I know what you're thinking

[Bridge]
I'm watching your every move
I feel the tears are coming on
It won't be long
It won't be long
Straight from the cover shoot
Still a trace of body paint
On your legs and on your arms and on your face
And I'm keeping on my costume
And calling it a writing tool
And if you’re thinking of me
I’m probably thinking of you


[Refrain]
There's still a trace of body paint
On your legs and on your arms and on your face
There’s still a trace of body paint
On your legs and on your arms and on your face
There's still a trace of body paint
On your legs and on your arms and on your face
There's still a trace of body paint
On your legs and on your arms and on your face

[Chorus]
So predictable, I know what you're thinking

[Outro]
Ooh, ha
Yeah
Yeah

[nzoqxmu]

Arctic Monkeys is a beast of a band. I love that they constantly bringing us into different atmospheres every time they drop an album, and they never disappoint. Forever a fan!

[Jewls]

I love how every one of their albums seems to be something they really love, care about, and put time into, rather than just a cash grab.

[koryrae]

1:00 that synced microphone tap gives me life

[Jakedanashb]

Saw them in Sheffield Friday.
This song stood out massively amongst their classics.
Easily in the top 5 of their songs for me

[tamiL]

The sound is GORGEOUS, Alex's voice is perfect. Incredible song

[dhruvgoyal]

As a fan, I don't even care if arctic monkeys don't get the appreciation they deserve. And neither do they care about it. They are doing what they love and feel like doing which as a fan I totally respect. I always listen to their music not with the expectation of what I want, but with the curiosity of knowing about what artistic world the monkeys have webbed for us. Even if I am the last person who appreciates the legends from Sheffield who turned the music industry, it would still be worth every second that I have listened to their music. AM forever🖤
