This whole song hits me in the feels, but the line "I'm really not supposed to, but yes you can call me anything you want." really makes me cry because he finally found someone who was willing to help him through his pain.
I always thought of this song as someone who likes a girl, but can't get over a girl that he loved before that he couldn't be with. And the second girl loves the guy so much that she accepts that he is settling for her.
AM lyrics have always been amazing. The band has changed so much over years but they are so incredible when it comes to words! Alex has this great ability to sing 6 words when you think only 4 would fit. Their songs are like poems. And this is my favourite one.
@@sofiaelizabeth1841 I'm really sorry for your loss but you mentioning your mother in a song with culminates in the protagonist shagging his ex's sister is awkward. Sorry I was not trying to be a douche 😬
@@akshaysodhi_1044 i see your point but is not about the whole lyric! You listen a song and identify yourself in some lines or probably the whole lyric even if is not the same situation Sometimes people needs common sense. Music is all about interpretation and take what it fits you, the rest you let them go
@@sofiaelizabeth1841 You got me there about the specific lyric part, but in the overall situation it really didn't fit for me. But hey it's all about how you want to enjoy music.
Does no one get that the girl he's singing about is dead "close enough to be your GHOST" "where's your hiding place," like her ashes ,or her body, is somewhere but he doesn't know where " I'm worried I'll forget your face," cause he's never gonna see her again " I thought she might understand," the sister is probably feeling the same emotions 'cause she's going through the same loss " I'm really not supposed to," the sister feels like she's slightly betraying her but doesn't really care
Honestly idk that might be a little over though. I understand the basic thought process behind it, but I feel like Alex’s writing, especially on humbug, was less literal than that
@@yaellara306 The meaning,is the important one,awesome,there are many songs.Overall,i listen the song,and that's it.No appreciation for the meaning of them.
"I smelt your scent on the seat belt and kept my shortcuts to myself" "can I call you her name" "Tell me where's your hiding place, I'm worried I'll forget your face."
Just realized he's going down on her, or touching down there, while he asks one of them if he can call her "her" name. Never looked for any of their lyrics before, trusting i heard correctly. 😄 Will look more often. Brilliant. Was watching an NFL game, the announcer said the word cornerstone, and i just had to listen to this.
Okay so..a lot of interpretations but here is mine he is actually searching not for a particular girl but for LOVE he describes his attempts to find her and he is worrying that maybe he wont ".. I'll forget your face" when he asks "can I call you her name" he actually asks "can I call you Love" untill he finally finds her grieving in the cornerstone for the same reason as him
Cornerstone is the name of a group kind of like AA but for people in grief for their lost, sooo he's definitely talking about his dead gf cuz well he saw her sister in the cornerstone. It's more deep than it seems but I like your interpretation too
No sevina, he isnt. His girlfriend died. When he came up to her sister, with the context that her sister (his girlfriend) died, the line "I thought she might understand" makes a lot more sense. When he asks for her hiding place, hes asking where are her ashes or burried body, thats why hes also scared he'll forget her face, because there isnt a physical representation of her anymore.
it is so fun to go through this comment session watching a bunch of teenagers finding such poetry and deep hiding meanings to a song about hooking up with your exs sister
Poetry can be about anything....these are genuinely v creative and good lyrics, even if you read like Keats or Milton or Dante you can still acknowledge good song lyrics.
This song is very suitable when you stuck in the traffic jam when sunset comes. I stop feel bored due to congestion and I realised I already at my cark park.
I always thought Alex's hopeless love song were all about his first long term ever gf, johanna bennett... I feel bad for him. Now he's like a God. He can get whoever he wants, but he cant go back with that girl, bcs shes married.... The only one can compares Alex is Alexa... Why dont they just got back together already
This whole song hits me in the feels, but the line "I'm really not supposed to, but yes you can call me anything you want." really makes me cry because he finally found someone who was willing to help him through his pain.
Strawberry Crazycake aww i know btw why do i see your comments everywhere I’m screaming
and the fact that it was the girl he was looking for sister
Its not that deep, he just shagged his ex's sister
It makes me cry for the girl who wasn't loved for who she was
@@aarjukarki5843 x2
I love that you can interpret this song as a simple breakup song, or a song about a dead lover.
I always thought of this song as someone who likes a girl, but can't get over a girl that he loved before that he couldn't be with. And the second girl loves the guy so much that she accepts that he is settling for her.
Close enough to be your ghost means the girl he seen was that much of a lookalike it could be her ghost
I think she is imaginary. In my experience the breakups with imaginary girls are tougher than with dead 👭
I thought it was about revenge
This music is poetry
Nowhere Girl well, all music is poetry. This poetry just happens to have lots of meaning

Umm, this is not from AM this is from Humbug...
Mafer Hernandez AM also means Arctic Monkeys
I couldn't agree more
@@skylover7878 LOL
I feel like I can hear the lyrics maturing and growing up as the years go by with this band, it's a fascinating thing to observe.
this is such an amazing song idk if i should cry or smile
Both please
Only a true poet fits the word “elongated” into a song’s chorus ❤
This song reminds me my mother. I miss her so much and I see her in many people. I’m just crying
well this is awkward...
@@akshaysodhi_1044 why is awkward?

Lol I used to always think it was "kept my chocolates to myself" ;D
xD
That's so funny
YiPPaA sameeee
saaaame
I understood chuckles.
Just watched them live yesterday. This song hit differently. So here I am trying to live that experience in my head again.
Does no one get that the girl he's singing about is dead
"close enough to be your GHOST"
"where's your hiding place," like her ashes ,or her body, is somewhere but he doesn't know where
" I'm worried I'll forget your face," cause he's never gonna see her again
" I thought she might understand," the sister is probably feeling the same emotions 'cause she's going through the same loss
" I'm really not supposed to," the sister feels like she's slightly betraying her but doesn't really care
Salami Ross Woah! I never thought of it that way. That makes a lot of sense
Honestly idk that might be a little over though. I understand the basic thought process behind it, but I feel like Alex’s writing, especially on humbug, was less literal than that
W A W
idk ive always thought this, ever since i heard this song i just feel like its deeper than a breakup, like he's really never gonna see her ever again
no
in my humble opinion, this this their best song
The lyrics are so specific, when i listen to this song i always listen to the lyrics carefully and they have such a beautiful meaning🌻
Beautiful meaning? Lol the song is about a guy missing his ex, so he shags her sister lol
@@theworstpear6080 Straight to the point, your explanation.But , yes, the meaning of the song, really sucks !
@@mihaelanegritu1709 awesome lyrics though

im absolutely in love with alex turner
Aren't we all :(
He’s drug addicted.....
I ll get in to that queue as well

This band changed my life, more specifically their first album. I love all their music it’s so damn good 🦅
I cry every night to this song. I'll never fall in love again.
I hope you heal 😊 wishing and praying everything gets better for you
alex turner is a genius, i love everything about this song, it always hits my heart
Hello holy beauty
Hello holy beauty part 2

If you like this song you have spectacular taste
My ex and I used to listen to this together and I miss him so damn much.
“She was close. Close enough to be your ghost.”

they are still awesome though

Jesus this is a masterpiece
I always thought he said “I elongated my left toe”
HAHAHAH
or 'elongated my left 'hook!' (punching) but its the Rusty Hook bar he references earlier.. definitely excellent poetry
Jajajaja xD muy gracioso
Natalie x ME TOO AHAHHAHHAHAHAHAH
This reminds me of Eleanor & Park

The whole book? or one part in specific?
MMM, now i want to read it, this song reminds me of myself

This is the best AM song!
I didn’t forget your face…but I forgot your voice…and that’s hurt a lot
é muito loco escutar renovo essas músicas, eu nem sei como eu tô me sentindo
I came from the am album. And glad I did or else I wouldn't have found this
This song is beautiful, man 😥
fav song!!!
“i’m beginning to think i imagined you all along” damn
I saw your sister on the cornerstone, on the phone to the middle man. When I saw that she was on her own, I thought she might understand
es la voz mas sexy que he oido en mi vida
Lo mismo digo owo!
