@@Rrob06 I'd say he sounded like this until the second album and then changed it intentionally on Humbug. It's just that he "learned how to sing" more than anything. He just wanted to go in a different direction I think. If you go watch the Teddy Picker video (which is them live), it's not that much deeper than here. Just a bit. And he was like 21 or so there I believe. He just changed his style up mostly, I'd say!
I'll always remember this song as the last one I played in our common room at secondary school, as the music faded out, I disconnected my iPod from the speakers and left for the final time, that was 2 years ago, loved this song since it was released, beautiful.
I love reading the comments under this video because in most comment section you can't find comments from 8 years ago, it's cool to me for some reason and I don't know why. These people listened to this 8 years ago and today in 2018 I listen to this demo for the first time
This is so raw, it's amazing... And the topping is the just barely out of tune guitars, makes you feel they've just gotten in a garage together and started playing, so raw...
Every now and then, i return to this song and it gives me hope and happiness. Faith in my future and to keep going. Idk, it just gives me that feeling. Phenomenal, arctic monkeys never stop doing what you do, please.
I love listening to bands debut lp’s, ep’s or whatever and this is so good I wish they would play some music like this again. They have changed their sound sooooo much.
"A Certain Romance" Well oh they might wear classic Reeboks Or knackered Converse Or tracky bottoms tucked in socks But all of that's what the point is not The point is that there ain't no romance around there And there's the truth that they can't see They'd probably like to throw a punch at me And if you could only see them, then you would agree Agree that there ain't no romance around there You know, oh, it's a funny thing, you know? We'll tell them if you like We'll tell them all tonight They'll never listen Because their minds are made up And course it's all OK to carry on that way 'Cause over there there's broken bones There's only music, so that there's new ringtones And it don't take no Sherlock Holmes To see it's a little different around here Don't get me wrong though there's boys in bands And kids who like to scrap with pool cues in their hands And just 'cause he's had a couple of cans He thinks it's alright to act like a dickhead Don't you know, oh it's a funny thing you know We'll tell them if you like We'll tell them all tonight They'll never listen 'Cause their minds are made up And course is all OK to carry on that way But I said no, oh no! Well oh, you won't get me to go Not anywhere, not anywhere No, I won't go, oh no, no? But over there there's friends of mine What can I say, I've known them for a long long time And yet they might overstep the line But you just cannot get angry in the same way No, not in the same way No not in the same way Oh no, oh no, no!
@@biohazard9503 vinyl is considered old and out of touch, by the people of this generation so it’s understandable how someone wouldn’t know of it. I know of it because i’m fluent in the past.
@@johnmarston3264 not really there are a lot of people this generation who collect vinyls and actively use them. It's just very convenient to listen to music on a phone
@@ricek.l9973 yeah i collect old video games and old files all sorts of old stuff, a lot of it’s older than me. but i don’t necessarily connect with vinyl too much cuz just like you said. It’s more convenient on a phone.
ahhh! :( that sucks. i saw them a couple of weeks ago and they didn't play any of those. they played "i bet you look good on the dancefloor" though. i wish i had seen them when they had first started out :/
I imagine playing this song live In front. Of a crowd of people I know in a club where I go myself in a band with my mates and thinkin I’ve made it at 19 years old at 3:45
One of the best songs of the decade... now goodnight, it's wayy too late.. It's okay though, cause I have this song to keep me company...WhOOOO!!! Fuck, I'm drunk. I hope i dont get a handgover.
Beneath the boardwalk was a massive gift for sheffield kids around 04 when it was doing the rounds. We knew we were finally gonna have a voice and be up there with Manchester and Liverpool. That was before they were even signed.
@alxturner9 stood near the front, got doused in beer all night but was one of the best experiences of my LIFE!!!!!!!!!! I wish i went to see em in the proper early days down at the boardwalk or summat :(
Yeah as said before, the bands get so sick of the songs. And you won't understand until you write a song. I get sick of songs I'm writing when they're not even finished cause you play them over so many times it just gets terrible. Hell, they're probably already sick of Suck It And See.
oh god, you're so right. I mean, there are bands that are okay with that, to play the same tune for 10, 20, 30 years every time live. But although I haven't written a whole lot of songs, I got sick of every one of them at some point lol
@simocullen7 I know its annoying... i saw them in Sheffield and during flourescent adolescent they played mardy bum for about 1 minute!!!! the crowd went MAD!!!!! find it on youtube ABSOLUTELY INSANE!!!! on the night, it was the songs off the first album that got the place jumping... shame they didn't play many :(
@alxturner9 the whole night was a dream... how good was secret door :) brianstorm and do me a favour were immense!!!!!!!!! when the sun goes down was fucking epic too
brick by brick is kinda a suckish song when you listen to it. But if you ever get a chance to see them live and they play that song its amazing. the energy and passion put into that song and the bass. Its just amazing so is dont sit down cuz i moved your chair.

I love how dirty it sounds. Unpolished. Perfect.
Right, the radio version doesn't come close to this one
This is the way.
Fkn awesome! Raw as fk. And load as fk thru beats! Musical experience
Feels swept in from the old streets of Sheffield
The drumset sounds so bad and I love it. Reminds me of the one I have in skl
the fact that he wrote recorded most of these at 15-16 is so insane
Alex's squeaky voice here that keeps cracking shows how far he has come as a singer
It makes it better because he isn’t who he is today
Mainly cause he was a teen and his voice was still deepening
he was like 17 in this song i think
@@Rrob06 I'd say he sounded like this until the second album and then changed it intentionally on Humbug. It's just that he "learned how to sing" more than anything.

Yeah preferred it back then, compared to the fake Scott Walker he is now

Tom Jellis okay i’m doing this next year
Perfect song for the moment
woah
Holy shit i kinda wanna cry right now.

Hilde you should have listened to their first 2 albums way earlier!
Hilde Aaaaw nice, so you can feel the nostalgia
Same
Bro have a look other videos related this song, there still most comments since 8 years
Hilde 8 years ago I was only 4
This was my anthem of 2007. Reminds me of getting drunk with mates in the middle of a field on a hot summer's evening.
Wow, to think they wrote this when they were 15/16!
More like 17/18
@@ProtestantBoy they were 16 going on 17 i believe
Idk but, the young Alex's voice feel so good in this music, that it makes me feel that this version is better than the one who comes to the 1st album
@Axel Rangel-Rivera bromeas verdad
@Axel Rangel-Rivera Really?! *Blow Mind*
@Axel Rangel-Rivera this guy makes music today?!
@Axel Rangel-Rivera I knew it this dude sounds different
@Axel Rangel-Rivera false, this is alex turner singing.
This is so raw, it's amazing...
And the topping is the just barely out of tune guitars, makes you feel they've just gotten in a garage together and started playing, so raw...

This is the kind of song that you play to people and if they’re not blown away, you secretly judge them
I’m 14 and i’m thinking about making music cause I’ve loved music since I was little, so I’m starting to practice my guitar and to make some tunes.
Do it! I'm sure it will be amazing
first day of 2021, gonna come back to this in a few years
please remind me to come back whenever you do, mylo :)

I saw them in Madrid in Febuary. Best concert I've been to. There´s something magical about their performances.
I love listening to bands debut lp’s, ep’s or whatever and this is so good I wish they would play some music like this again. They have changed their sound sooooo much.
I remember I used to listen to this in 6th grade on my way to elementary school! I love these songs.
valid as hell
How old were they when they wrote this!? Unbelievable song from an unbelievable band
Craig Lane around sixteen 💯💯💯
Random Green Day Fan 182 damn
Edit: 16 actually and they released the official version when they were 19-20
I think 18 years old, wikipedia says that they released this album in 2004, most of them were born in 1986 so i think they were 18 in that time.
15 or 16
takes me back to my sophomore year of high school when the debut came out. beautiful.
it’s funny how fans from the AM album just discovered this, well welcome to the demo.❤️
Thanks for the welcome lol
my favourite song, amazing version
Nostalgia. Still not forgotten.
The best version.
"A Certain Romance"
Well oh they might wear classic Reeboks
Or knackered Converse
Or tracky bottoms tucked in socks
But all of that's what the point is not
The point is that there ain't no romance around there
And there's the truth that they can't see
They'd probably like to throw a punch at me
And if you could only see them, then you would agree
Agree that there ain't no romance around there
You know, oh, it's a funny thing, you know?
We'll tell them if you like
We'll tell them all tonight
They'll never listen
Because their minds are made up
And course it's all OK to carry on that way
'Cause over there there's broken bones
There's only music, so that there's new ringtones
And it don't take no Sherlock Holmes
To see it's a little different around here
Don't get me wrong though there's boys in bands
And kids who like to scrap with pool cues in their hands
And just 'cause he's had a couple of cans
He thinks it's alright to act like a dickhead
Don't you know, oh it's a funny thing you know
We'll tell them if you like
We'll tell them all tonight
They'll never listen
'Cause their minds are made up
And course is all OK to carry on that way
But I said no, oh no!
Well oh, you won't get me to go
Not anywhere, not anywhere
No, I won't go, oh no, no?
But over there there's friends of mine
What can I say, I've known them for a long long time
And yet they might overstep the line
But you just cannot get angry in the same way
No, not in the same way
No not in the same way
Oh no, oh no, no!
i cannot wait to make so many memories to this song :’)
Biggest grin on my face
Lyrics at the end are so fuckin spot on love it
brilliant song with a wonderful message!
I finally got this album on vinyl 😊😊😊

ColdZero Pretty much everywhere sucks one way or another.
This will always be my favourite song. No doubt

@virgin mary hello
Wait, i'm 15 again, oh, how i miss MySpace, this song screams 2000s era.
Bom nome amigo
My life changed when I downloaded this back in 2006
the best version!
i just wanted to know why they don't want to play it anymore. it's one of my favorites! :(
This is so preciooous
so raw and so perfect how it sounds
This is the best version of the song ngl
I love this song so much I'm almost crying... it's been so long
Something wonderful can happen.
flipping brilliant this
they were so young, and you can see just how talented they are
I only realised that I am still such a fan of this band when I cane back to listen to this “album” in 2022
I imagine playing this song live In front. Of a crowd of people I know in a club where I go myself in a band with my mates and thinkin I’ve made it at 19 years old at 3:45
Beautiful
im in love with this song
makes me cry :'(
this remains my favourite song ever

Are you a fan?

I do wish it had the mental guitar peaks in the intro like the final version has, but apart from that not bloody bad.
Yeah this is better than the official album version.
im sad i found this song in 2021.
