"i couldn't get the hang of poetry" - the most poetic man in music

i have no type but he's my type

The sexiest man on the earth alive.

He sounds so heavenly without even trying

"I pour my aching heart into a pop song, I couldn't get the hang of poetry." The way he sings this line ALWAYS gives me a chill.

When I grow up I wanna be Alex Turner

"Be cruel to me, cause I'm a fool for you." Sounds about damn right.

Alex doesn't sing the song. He makes love to it.

Alex Turner is one of the few genuinely top class musician/singers of this generation

"You're rarer than a can of Dandelion and Burdock, and those other girls are just post-mix lemonade.." That line is so cute c:

[Verse] E C#m Your love is like a studded leather headlock F#m B Your kiss it could put creases in the rain E C#m You're rarer than a can of dandelion and burdock F#m B E And those other girls are just post mix lemonade [Chorus] E Suck it and see A B you never know E Sit next to me A B Before I go F#m B C#m Jigsaw women with horror movie shoes F#m A B E Be cruel to me, 'cause I'm a fool for you [Verse] E C#m I poured my aching heart into a pop song F#m B I couldn't get the hang of poetry E C#m That's not a skirt girl, that's a sawn off shotgun F#m B E And I can only hope, you've got it aimed at me [Chorus] E Suck it and see A B you never know E Sit next to me A B Before I go F#m B C#m Jigsaw women with horror movie shoes F#m A B Be cruel to me, 'cause I'm a fool for [Instrumental] C#m B C#m B [Bridge] A F#m C#m Blue moon girls from once upon a Shangri-La G# C#m B How I often wonder where you are A F#m A B A You have got that face that just says "Baby I was made to break your heart" [Chorus] E A Suck it and see E A you never know E A Sit next to me E A Before I go E A E A Jigsaw women with horror movie shoes F#m A B E Be cruel to me, 'cause I'm a fool for you

this dude has too much swag

" Be cruel to me cause I am a fool for you"... damn that hits hard

Alex is not only a great musician, he's also a poet. His lyrics are just... beautiful

WHEN I GROW UP I WANT TO BE ALEX'S GUITAR

I feel sorry for me and everyone else who’s not married to Alex Turner

What a beautiful voice, I could listen him singing for hours.

Here we go again... this masterpiece never gets older

I'm melting I'm melting I'm melting I'm melting.

Alex Turner seems like that quiet guy you vaguely remember slouching in the back of an English class..

Your love is like a studded leather headlock Your kiss, it could put creases in the rain You're rarer than a can of dandelion and burdock And those other girls are just post-mix lemonade [Chorus] Suck it and see, you never know Sit next to me before I go Jigsaw women with horror movie shoes Be cruel to me 'cause I am a fool for you [Verse 2] I poured my aching heart into a pop song I couldn't get the hang of poetry That's not a skirt, girl, that's a sawn-off shotgun And I can only hope you've got it aimed at me [Chorus] Suck it and see, you never know Sit next to me before I go Jigsaw women with horror movie shoes Be cruel to me 'cause I am a fool for [Bridge] Blue moon girls from once upon a Shangri-La How I often wonder where you are You have got that face that just says "Baby, I was made to break your heart", oh-oh-oh [Chorus] Suck it and see, you never know Sit next to me before I go, go, go, go Jigsaw women with horror movie shoes Be cruel to me 'cause I am a fool for you

you've got that face that just says "baby, I was made to break your heart..." 💙

this was recorded in a Seattle radio station and my brother was going to the concert afterwards now, 3 years later I'm about to go see Arctic Monkeys. this recording reminds me of a younger me putting my ear against my brother's door so I could listen to his music.

The lyrics are so poetic and Turner's voice so smooth and melodic, it speaks to my heart. I think for the first time I have a feeling that true love exists. I hope so.

"Leather jacket collar popped like antenna, never knowing when to stop Sunglasses indoors par for the course, lights in the floors and sweat on the walls"

all his songs always have so much meaning, cant believe people are actually saying this is empty and dull, go listen to some modern top 100 chart music and tell me they are in depth.

this song is just perfect. I aspire to be even half of the amazing lyrical genius he is.

he does it so effortlessly... like he's not even trying but bam it's pure perfection. I'm in love with you Alex Turner.

Alex Turner makes you feel the song ..His music is just ART...

They need to give us an album this year! It's been 3 years since the last one released and this pain is no longer bearable.

Possibly the best album of all time. But undoubtedly one of the best singles. AT is without question one of the greatest song writers of all time.

Almost forgot to watch this again today

Anyone else think this is much better than the original?

his voice is my religion

My favourite acoustic performance of Alex Turner. Looks so naive, modest and not acts for audience, just feels the song.

i love how he wears sunglasses inside

I love his voice,his jacket ,those shades and the way he exists

The best version of this song

years go by, and he still makes a masterpiece hope there will be new album soon

every now and again when I want to churn my guts, tear open my own chest cavity and pour rock salt on my bloody, aching heart, I watch this video....

Literally such a good song ALEX IS SO CLEVER IN EVERY SONG.

this cover is everything to me I keep coming back to it every day

the tone of his voice..absolutely love it!

Blue moon girls, from once upon a Shangri-La..how I often wonder where you are 🎶

Your voice itself brings me memories that could have been forgotten years ago. My heart aches :/ thank you for the amazing lyrics- they are genius and may never get old

this song is a soundtrack of my life, thank you arctic!!!

La voz de Turner en la madrugada me da mil años más de vidaaaaaa 🤤😍😍😍

i can sit here and listen to him sing forever :) this is so freaking beautiful on so many levels ahhh

Your love is like a studded leather headlock Your kiss it could put creases in the rain You're rarer than a can of dandelion and burdock And those other girls are just post-mix lemonade Suck it and see You never know Sit next to me Before I go Jigsaw women with hollow movie shoes Be cruel to me 'cause I'm a fool for you I poured my aching heart into a pop song I couldn't get the hang of poetry That's not a skirt girl, that's a sawn-off shotgun And I can only hope you've got it aimed at me Suck it and see You never know Sit next to me Before I go Jigsaw women with hollow movie shoes Be cruel to me 'cause I'm a fool for... Blue moon girls from once a upon a Shangri-La How I often wonder where you are You have got that face that just says 'Baby, I was made to break your heart' Suck it and see You never know Sit next to me Before I go Jigsaw women with hollow movie shoes Be cruel to me 'cause I'm a fool for you

this is so heartfelt i'm about to cry

This continues to be my favorite version of the song

I simply love this man and his music

I think this is the most lovable song on the album 😍

i'm obsessed with this cover. it's so sexy and calming. I get chills when he does that vibrato thing at the end of each line which makes it a bit unexpected too. And the accent of course

Stunningly beautiful music and most definitely a stunningly beautiful man... Amazing poet, even if he didn't get the hang of poetry!! His words, not mine. He is a poet from the heart

Your love is like a studded leather headlock Your kiss it could put creases in the rain You're rarer than a can of dandelion and burdock And those other girls are just postmix lemonade Suck it and see you never know Sit next to me before I go Jigsaw women with horror movie shoes Be cruel to me cause I'm a fool for you I poured my aching heart into a pop song I couldn't get the hang of poetry That's not a skirt girl that's a sawn off shotgun And I can only hope you've got it aimed at me Suck it and see you never know Sit next to me before I go Jigsaw women with horror movie shoes Be cruel to me cause I'm a fool for you Blue moon girls from once upon a Shangri-La How I often wonder where you are You have got that face that just says "Baby, I was made to break your heart" Suck it and see, you never know Sit next to me before I go Jigsaw women with horror movie shoes Be cruel to me cause I'm a fool for you

His voice makes my heart melt. ❤️

Im watching this at least once everyday. this video makes my day perfect.

Nose ustedes pero yo quiero abrazar la pantalla de mi computadora♥ la voz de alex!! Es la gloria !

I don't often use this word to describe music, but this is absolutely beautiful.

The word swag was made for this dude

The beginning is just adorable. His face looked soooo freakingg cute. His talking voice "I'd love to...yeah..." is lovely BUT THEN it changed to such warm, professional, smooth like butter singing voice the moment he started the song

Favourite song from them. He sings it well in this

This is my favorite album of Arctic Monkeys, i just think that this album rounded up their sound as musicians and what they portray as individuals. I genuinely love suck it and see above all their other albums and i cant wait for their upcoming album this year! x

jesus i keep forgetting he was only 25 here

that sunglasses indoors that leather jacket collar popped like cantonna you must be alex turner

12 years still can’t get over this

how wonderful can he be

Why he is so fucking perfect? :O

This breaks My heart in the most beautiful way ❤️‍🩹

Thanks for all the close-up shots.

Alex writes poems and adds a melody to them

I do not understand how people can hit the dislike button...

this video is so perfect i just cannot cope

" You're rarer than a can of Dandelion & Burdock..." what a line!!!!

This hits even harder when you know it was sung just a few days after it was revealed he and Alexa (who inspired this song) had broken up

"baby i was made to break you heart" well said Alex

such a beautiful song!

I LOVE the way he looks here, just so sexy and cool and perfect and that. And changing his image doesn't stop him being one of the best lyricists in the history of everything and doesn't change how ace the Arctic Monkeys are.

I don't know what is more badass, the line "You're rarer than a can of dandelion and burdock And those other girls are just post-mix lemonade" or the way he says it. Such a cool lyric.

This was my kid brother’s favorite band.....now that he is no longer with me.....it makes me feel closer to him.

I could listen to this all day long.

I swear im so inlove with this guy

Just incredible.

love this songs

I've seen this like 100 times and it never gets old bit in love with him :) -3

This is just amazing❤️

I adore this version

When I thought this song couldn’t be more perfect, this version and this video happened

Los acusticos de los Arctic son tan dulces al oido, los amo

This is the coolest thing I ever seen

lookin so badass singing so sweetly 😭

this version will be forever my favourite one

he has such a beautiful voice

This was the most beautiful thing I ever heard..

Uma voz dessa no ouvido é pra derreter... Rsrs... 😍😍

He's like a modern Elvis Presley ❤

Beautiful song. Beautiful man.

I love this song . Every when listen i think in my dear .
