"a poem in which i attempt to reduce myself to the level of a mere commodity for the greater good of the object of my desire" - honestly, it's like alex is speaking through john here. that line could've come staight out of alex's mouth.
i got this poem in class a few years ago, before the song came out and i always loved it. when i then noticed the lyrics to this song, i freaked out :)
This is also really cool because i'm pretty sure alex Turner is a huge john Cooper Clarke fan and has said that he's a huge influence, so I imagine that praise meant a lot.
loved to hear the words in their original state: spoken aloud as a poem from the man who crafted them. definitely has a different impact from the song.
is me or alex turner will look exactly like this sir in 30 years??? haha i mean the suit the "ego" and the "mothefucker" lenguage ... lmao and the sunglasessssssssssss lol
Both the song and poem inspired me, (mostly the poem because the song is made out of the poem) so in Music Class we needed to make a song with two guitars, a set of bongos, maracas and an African drum so we turned the song, "I Wanna Be Yours" with the same guitar patterns and drums and used the lyrics so thank you Dr. John Clarke Cooper and Mr. Alex Turner for your inspiration upon me.
El habla de q el escribio un poema muchos anos atras q se llama I WANNA BE YOURS el Alex Turner le gusto mucho y de el poema los Arctic Monkeys escribieron la cancion...... Y que el es muy amigo del grupo!!! I absolutely love this he's a legend

Uhmm... but how? It's John's poem, John's older so if anything, Alex is the one who is inspired by John and his words are inspired by John.
@@michacieslak2346 i was referring to the fact that both of them are very well-spoken and also kind of long-winded when it comes to simple matters.

I've Seen Him Live he came on drunk and still performed like an utter legend!
Brilliant live as well. The silver confetti came down and Alex is just standing there singing "I wanna be yours"
This is also really cool because i'm pretty sure alex Turner is a huge john Cooper Clarke fan and has said that he's a huge influence, so I imagine that praise meant a lot.

A bunch of the songs on AM have some of the coolest, most poetic lyrics I've ever heard, and that's probably why I love it so much
