Been like 17 years and Alex still can’t put together a coherent sentence in an interview but can write some of the most beautiful and thought provoking lyrics album after album
As a songwriter Alex is extremely underrated because he's not following any current trend. He is simply a musician and a music fan. I think he deserves an even bigger audience.
@@BLUEGRASSCIRCUSyeah they're not underrated as a band, but alex is underappreciated as a songwriter, his lyrics and ways to compose are very overlooked by the general public
Alex is so scatterbrained and incoherent but I could spend forever listening to him. His expressions, mannerisms, nervous energy, timidness… I am as enchanted by him now as I was 18 years ago.
I don't know if people realize but Zane is literally thanked in the album notes of their debut album, he's literally been a fan and friend of these guy's since the beginning
I don't know how to say this without feeling like it's an understatement. But Arctic Monkeys really is the band of my life. I'm so grateful, honestly, SO grateful to have grown and lived (I still am tho) in the same timeline as this band. These guys have created their own sound and universe each time, flawlessly. Absolute geniuses.
he really does. look at 6:30 when he obv (probably subconsciously) recognises alex's a little anxious... he reacts with the total opposite behaviour to counter it. he's actually a great interviewer
Even though Alex is still his vague self in some respects, this is the most emotion I've seen from Alex in an interview ever. I love how they can chat like old friends - it feels like Alex is being Alex and not just a frontman.
@@3amL101 Absolutely! What I meant was, that it feels like a chat they'd have off camera. Actually feel old because I remember listening to Zane's show on Radio1.
I think the previous interview he did with Zane when they released Tranquility Base Hotel and Casino has the most emotion and expression tbh. Has was almost giddy during some parts of that interview.
Like so many places, I feel like I am in a Hitchcock movie and then I am dancing on a theater stage with no audience just me and the spotlight, and the I'm driving fast through empty streets... It is amazing.
We're so used to everything at our fingertips, people talking fast, a lot of information, and Alex is just a totally out of “this” world human being. He is always giving his maximum in the interviews.
I think this is the first interview Alex has given in this press run where he felt genuinely excited to talk about his and the band's creation. Credit to Zane.
It’s because we are so used to hearing people who open their mouths and answer by rote, giving the same bland, much-repeated answers. Al thinks about his words and constructs his sentences so that he expresses exactly what he’s thinking/feeling. And he’s brilliantly articulate in doing so.
I’m just a 20 year old college guy but this band makes me so emotional. Tranquility Base has been my mental escape from rougher days for some years now. I just fantasize that I’m in a retro suit sipping martinis on the moon; talking about intellectual problems and gambling. It’s peaceful to me at least haha. Now The Car is a tearjerker. It brings out my loneliness and failed romantic ventures, but in a healing way. Thank you Alex and the Arctic Monkeys, much love.
specific tracks Alex talks about 01:12 There'd Better Be A Mirrorball 02:25 Do I Wanna Know? 10:50 Sculptures of Anything Goes 15:03 Sculptures of Anything Goes 15:37 Star Treatment 18:35 There'd Better Be A Mirrorball 24:27 The Long Good Friday (Francis Monkman) 31:46 Mr. Schwartz 33:46 Body Paint 34:53 From The Ritz To The Rubble
From The Ritz, When The Sun Goes Down, Fluorescent Adolescent, Brianstorm, A Certain Romance…need to be on every set list of theirs! Just the first two albums as a whole 😂😂
Zane's just terrific. He interviews people like they're his friends (many of them actually are) and it gives the interview this lovely laid back energy. People like Alex and Them Yorke open up to him because even though they're not too keen on doing press, as least they know what they're getting with Zane.
I always wonder if the relentless fanboying makes them cringe a bit. He has ALWAYS done it since the MTV2 days but it would be weird having your mate gush at you non-stop. He does it so much that it comes off as over the top. I think he's a massive music fan and its authentic so its cool but man... tuck it in. Although, maybe it's a pre-requisite of being mates with A list celebs.
@@davidcjupp I think most of the people he interviews understand that it’s just apart of the job. The interviewer is a stand-in for the fans and has to bring that enthusiasm. And Zane is very good at his job. He also seems to be a genuine music lover which is nice to have as a musician.
There's a similar pattern between the Monkeys' progression and the Beatles. From kind of doing a lot of stuff in a rehearsal style to becoming more and more experimental in the studio. I think it shows great maturity in sound. Excited to see where they go next
Lol, no... Please, no. Not even close. The Beatles were always good and they got better. AM are on a more or less downwards trajectory since the first album.
@LonelyEmpath-tm8yx Oh! no, I wasn't saying that he was a creep, I meant that he now has a ''dirty mind'' if I may say that? like, in one of his songs he says ''i want you in all four'' or the official videos of Arabella and Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High?... there are many songs were you can hear he's not innocent AT ALL. idk if that made sense, hope this cleared all up :)
Something that I admire about Zane is that he really listens to the music and the arrangement of it. Of course that’s his job, but after listening to the album I heard the strings and the band “competing” and if I didn’t hear Zane point that out, I don’t think I would appreciate the song as much. Taking the time to listen to every part of the song and not taking it for face value is something I would like to start doing, so thank you Zane for inspiring that.
Growing up is realising this new monkeys sound is phenomenal. I struggled to grow into Tranq hotel but this album has stuck to me straight away. Absolutely unbelievable sounds and song writing. Bring on old Trafford next year 😅
I'm relatively new to AM. I've only been listening to them since about the end of 2018. How they never got on my radar is beyond me. I am now a HUGE fan of theirs. I mean.... I've POURED over their albums, obsessively. I've come away with two things: 1. Alex Turner is a ROCK STAR in the true sense of the word. Almost a throwback to the great wave of British bands of the late 60's and 70's. Amazing vocalist, stage presence and he has a keen sense for a musical hook. 2. He is easily on of the best songwriters and lyrisist of his generation of musicians. I can't think of anyone that paints a more vivid picture in his writing or understands the power a poetic metaphor more than him. Even his side projects are amazing. One of my all time favorite songs is " My Mistakes Were Made For You". That song just fires on all cylinders. Absolute genius songwriting.
always love the turner interviews with zane lowe because you can tell theres a level of trust and knowing there that makes alex so much more at ease and makes the interview so much better
The way people go on about the way Alex talks, you'd think he suffered a life threatening head injury. I can only imagine it makes doing interviews more difficult knowing that everyone is dissecting how you speak and pointing out how you stutter. He talks just like how a lot of other artists do, and having more apparent eloquence in lyrics than everyday speech is what makes musicians musicians anyways lol
@@irissupercoolsy No yeah exactly, I agree with you. I just always see comments pointing it out in his interviews as if it's bizarre or unheard of when it is completely normal for a lot of people
Alex Turner has never stopped surprising me since the first time I listened to A.M. in 2005... He creates entirely new songs and worlds on every album... He is close to a younger Damon Albarn in the sense that he goes farer and farer with his own experimentations... without trying to explain too much... like any artist, sometimes you do stuff without fully controlling it in the making.
I never noticed he stutters. As someone with a stutter similar to his I wouldn’t be able to stop smiling if i ever got to talk with him. Would be my no 1 choice of celebrity to bump into in public. 100%
I appreciate Zane Lowe, he asks such elaborate but also open-ended questions that show how much he knows - and cares - about the musician and the music itself. No nonsense, no generic stuff. I'm so glad I got to hear Alex's thoughts and processes. The Car is such a strong album, it blows my mind.
I have had time to digest Mirrorball and Body Paint for a long time now and I gotta admit, Body Paint is undoubtedbly the most mindblowing song I have heard in a while.... the last song that really touched me like that I remember vividly was Resistance by Muse (and they are very different songs) or Death and all of his friends by Coldplay back in the Viva la Vida era.
The Car is the best album development of the band! They develop and mature with every album! So grateful of the pace they are taking. When you love a band/artist you got to trust their process and respect it ❤
Back in 2018, exactly here with Zane, Al lost his train of thought and stuttered. Four years later, he still does... But that's our Al and we still love him and the Monkeys! Bring on the 21st!! 🔥
33:05 - 33:15 must be "It's Hard to Get Around the Wind". most favourite track of submarine, in my top ten of alex's output ever produced. one of the main reason was the guitar picking, aside from beautiful melodies and lyrics, that made me pick up guitar and learn how to guitar pick that way and it changed my life guitar-playing wise, and i am just a casual guitar playing bloke haha, so Mr. Schwartz is the most standout track for me this album almost only because of that, along with the mysterious moog-powered sound of Sculptures.
Zane: Comes out with some incredibly descriptive statement/ question. Alex: ‘Yeah…’ as his brain is still trying to process it 🤣 still refreshing after 16 years that he hasn’t changed in interviews
preordered the album and i can’t wait to get it!! i’m so excited and proud of them! seeing them live was honestly a life changing experience. i wish i could’ve gone with my best friend since they’re also his favorite band, but unfortunately he passed away 2 years ago. still, i’m sure he was there with me and i’ll enjoy the album as much as i can for both of us.♡
That very upset and im sorry about you loss I hope thst you love album tbhac and i wanna believe that your friend right now sitting in the luxury hotel on the moon and listen new album and send you high five)
so many comments about him not speaking well or sounding incoherent. i must be missing something. almost everything he says here makes sense and is well-put
Alex es una persona timida con vinculos cercanos referentes a lo que el.le gusta hacer vive para eso ...por.eso pienso es asi ....disfruta mucho lo.que hace y su mente siemore esta ocupada ...
I’ve watched this interview numerous times from start to finish and I love how Zane Lowe is so in tune with Alex’s body language. Alex starts off tense and as the interview progresses you can see his shoulders drop and his hands become more free as Zane helps him loosen up. It’s refreshing.
Been like 17 years and Alex still can’t put together a coherent sentence in an interview but can write some of the most beautiful and thought provoking lyrics album after album
I think is more related to Alex being uncomfortable doing interviews
And for the same amount of time that comment is under every video of an arctic monkeys interview…
speaking in public isn't the same as being locked in a studio writing a master piece
he reminds me damon albarn. they both sort of speak in very similar way in interviews.
i prefer that to impersonal rehearsed replies
Alex’s the last rock star. Doesn’t even have any social media. Lives his life. Writes his songs. Does his art.
Yeah, the world needs more people like Alex.
He hasn’t made rock music since 2013?
@@JohnIGuessmaybe you should listen to body paint :) that’s rock
@@mailys1478 Rock adjacent I would say
Hope he's not the last. It's about the art and releasing it. not the media part.
As a songwriter Alex is extremely underrated because he's not following any current trend. He is simply a musician and a music fan. I think he deserves an even bigger audience.

I just saw him live and would have never guessed that lol he seems so articulate and clear when he sings and a lot of charisma on stage
I don't know if people realize but Zane is literally thanked in the album notes of their debut album, he's literally been a fan and friend of these guy's since the beginning
It’s from his show where I first heard fake tales!😊
He's a shill

preordered the album and i can’t wait to get it!! i’m so excited and proud of them! seeing them live was honestly a life changing experience. i wish i could’ve gone with my best friend since they’re also his favorite band, but unfortunately he passed away 2 years ago. still, i’m sure he was there with me and i’ll enjoy the album as much as i can for both of us.♡
Seeing them was a life changing experience for me too. Bless you, I’m sure they are xx
That very upset and im sorry about you loss
I hope thst you love album tbhac and i wanna believe that your friend right now sitting in the luxury hotel on the moon and listen new album and send you high five)
21st October is going to be a fantastic day for music.
so many comments about him not speaking well or sounding incoherent. i must be missing something. almost everything he says here makes sense and is well-put
I know! I think it’s because the comments are made by people with only a basic grasp of English.
Alex es una persona timida con vinculos cercanos referentes a lo que el.le gusta hacer vive para eso ...por.eso pienso es asi ....disfruta mucho lo.que hace y su mente siemore esta ocupada ...
What a fantastic interview! Zane asks the questions we all want the answers to!
I love hearing him talk about the old records too. Seems he’s on a bit of a nostalgia kick recently
They highlight each individual sound in the most profound way, better than any band ever has. My favorite music, always will be.
I’ve watched this interview numerous times from start to finish and I love how Zane Lowe is so in tune with Alex’s body language. Alex starts off tense and as the interview progresses you can see his shoulders drop and his hands become more free as Zane helps him loosen up. It’s refreshing.
Respect to the interviewer. Really great job in every sense.
Alex is a genius ! What a talented songwriter & musician!❤
