WHEN ALEX IS PLAYING WITH THE XYLOPHONE AT THE END AND THE LITTLE 'hmm' THAT COMES OUT OF HIS MOUTH MY GOD HES SO CUTE.

[jaiyeko]

Matt makes the xylophone looks professional

[pinkprisoner]

I thought I was over my crush on him but it's coming right back, y'all, I can feel it

[Gmatt]

man you can tell the singer is gonna be more than just in the rock genre in the future

[vhosszu]

after all these years, i'm still here childishly crushing over alex

[alexsghostcookie]

Here in 2022 and discovering them has been one of the best discoveries of my life. Their music is my soul...

[Gracie]

lol seeing Matt play the bells is the cutest thing ^-^

[gadge]

So, so good.

The way he writes lyrics that combine a romantic overtone with a subtle and almost hidden, hurt, undertone is genius.

One of the great, most articulate song writers of our generation.

Forza

All 3 songs that were recorded at Avatar studios are perfect. The atmosphere, black/white colors, Alex and Matt`s appearance are adorable.

Hahaha, I love how he realizes there's no point to a count off.

To everyone asking why they wore glasses:

As an artist, they might not want you to know how they really feel towards the song. They say you can really tell someone's emotions by just a look into his eyes; in that sense; for example, artists might sang their song in an angry tone (or any tone you can hear from them), but actually anger is not what they feel towards the song, but in complete opposite - sadness is what they felt.
By not really showing a certain type of emotion/central emotion (not focusing on dictating the listeners of how they should feel towards the song) by the emotions one can infer from the artist's eyes, artists are giving their listeners the freedom to give their own towards the song.

Just sharing. ✨

“1, 2, 3, ...it’s just me”
Best Countdown Ever 🥲

[moon-ica]

my goodness how can he look like a total badass but a cutie at the same time at the end TT

[Waverer]

that high xylophone note at 1:47 hit the spot.

[carolineo]

I’m so late to this band but his voice is so smooth and I have never heard anyone sing so closely to the studio version of a song in an acoustic performance, this has left me shook

[JContente]

funny how alex starts with an acoustic guitar and in the end finishes playing with an electric one

[Niiiii]

I sometimes find myself not needing music around at all, but then circle back to Arctic Monkeys, and damn, I am always blown away like I met them for the first time. I often wonder if Alex exists in this world, started to feel like he is just a character of a movie from 80s because he seems to live in his perfect aesthetic world that no longer exists. Props to this evergreen, cryogenically preserved video❤

[jelena]

his final note turning into a sort of a smile and the xylophone at the end make this so pure and wholesome

[adafada]

don't mind me, I'm just liking comments from 6 years ago

[WilltheAstrologer]
