sometimes i think that Alex and Matt are better friends than Alex and Miles …..it’s just that Alex and Miles are more like lovers !

The submission box is kinda empty… maybe we should fill it up; brick by brick.

Things I Love About Arctic Monkeys (Jamie Cook)

I think Jamie is charming and I like that he still sounds like a child. I personally think he has the best hair in the Suck It And See-era. And in Humbug… Words can’t describe how amazing the long hair and beard was. I love that he always has red cheeks. It gives him a sort of innocence. And in “The View From…” videos where Alex is asking who wants margaritas and Jamie is just dancing really weirdly and raises his hand stiffly. I laughed so hard. And there’s no denying his guitar-skills, and the way he pouts his lips when he’s playing. These boys just make me so happy all the time.

Things I Love About Arctic Monkeys (Nick O’Malley)

His eyes. Green and so beautiful. If I ever lock eyes with him, I would probably pass out. I love his voice when he talks, how deep and raspy it is. It’s in the same category as Morgan Freeman and Liam Neeson. His bass lines are incredible. It’s a melody of it’s own. I just love how the sound of his bass isn’t being swallowed up by the sound of the other instruments like other bands. I love his smile and how he has laugh lines. And his short hair in the Humbug-era. I would bring that back if I could. And i absolutely adore his back-up vocals, especially in R U Mine? Makes me want to hug him.

Things I Love About Arctic Monkeys (Matt Helders)

This man, this agile beast. What would Arctic Monkeys be without Matthew J. Helders III? He inspired me to learn the drums. When I listen to their songs like, Secret Door, My Propeller, Do Me A Favour and Pretty Visitors, I think, “WHAT HAS THIS MAN BEEN DRINKING?” His beats are mental. And the faces he makes when he’s playing live! Adorable. And we all know him of course, for his sense of humour. He really is quite funny. I went through a phase where I watched every video of “The View From…” repeatedly and thought about how he switches from a drumming rockstar to an endearing sweetheart who does laundry and calls track bottoms “joggers”. Love him.

Things I Love About Arctic Monkeys (Alex Turner)

I love that Alex is still a little awkward. Regardless of the change of style, he’s still the boy from Sheffield we all fell in love with. Sometimes when I look at him, it’s hard to believe that he wrote such fantastic lyrics — lyrics that every human on the planet can relate to. I will always admire him for his ability to write lyrics that are “real”. And his voice. How many nights have I fallen asleep listening to his voice? The moment his voice reaches my ears, it melts away my raging thoughts and emotions. I hope that one day, I’ll be able to thank him for giving me such comfort. I owe him for that.

I have this insane fantasy (and it’s never gonna come true, mark my words) that one day, I’ll be at an Arctic Monkeys concert holding a sign that says, “ALEX, SING WITH ME!” and he would call ‘The Girl Holding The Poster’ up on stage for a duet or something, anything. I would do just about anything for the opportunity to sing with him.
