Arctic Monkeys - Chun Li's Spinning Bird Kick

All rights belong to Domino Records.
SONG: Chun Li's Spinning Bird Kick
ALBUM: I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor EP
YEAR: 2005

[@selchie1443]

Spotify still has this song as "Chun Li Flying Bird Kick" because apparently that's what was written on the original CD. The monkeys later corrected it to say "spinning", because that's what the move is called in the street fighter game they were referencing.

Man I miss this kind of Arctic Monkeys

[@garydixon6315]

Me too bro ... So much better than The Car this .. in a groove

[@Haraamcore13]

Simple yet awesome.

[@joshwalley9864]

This is low-key one of my favourite arctic monkey's tunes. There's no vocals, but the vibe is spot on. You know it's a good tune when they can say it all without saying anything

[@sandyfc6703]

No importa el tiempo que pase, su música nunca deja de encantar

[@nolanjourdan1482]

Awesome song and so fun to play on guitar, I love u Arctic Monkeys

[@vesperuk341]

oooooh the drums

[@saturnstudi0s]

when you're happy you enjoy the music when you're sad you understand the lyrics

[@muppetmittstheOG]

Hold down for 2 seconds then push up with any kick button.

[@danielkellett2742]

Sounds like an attitude era wwf theme

[@themusic09]

Class Sounds smiler to stone roses groove harder

[@J.ONE2004]

Como essa musica não está em algum tony hawk?

[@coreym8145]

i am an arctic monkeys fan and a street fighter fan.. how did i not know about this song!?

[@azcdtixs]

Its their b sides, pretty hidden yeah

[@Chapolinho316]

I'm getting some Oasis (Fuckin' in the Bushes) vibes from the movie Snatch.

[@gamizuco]

there is something so led zeppelish in this riff.

[@theevil090]

+gamizuco Yeah I heard moby dick and thought of this, though more because of thr drumming, especially about 1 min 20 secs in.

[@alonsocisneros6103]

because matt helders is very influenced by john boham

[@prajwaljayaraj5887]

Cause it's pretty heavy

[@stupidshare]

i kinda think they were into sabbath too

[@thetrilogy1557]

Rage against the machine riff

[@SilverSnark]

I can actually imagine Zach on this...

[@lac0rde]

this is the ultimate poker night song

[@antonioaltini781]

Stefano Rapone's favorite AM song!

[@garydixon6315]

They were so cool in the beginning...

[@AhnHo1]

[@tomgibbs5751]

[@Jasmine-vv4ty]

[@mariosinambela5653]

[@angelwillforage3716]

[@sofiapotter1811]

Omaiga

[@donnybugger6032]

Sounds like Fools Gold by Stone Roses

[@rd7208]

Aeroplane Blues by the black keys anyone?

[@hanniballanda794]

jajajaja show me your special move.

[@vitaosuave27]

quem diria eles jogam street fighter kkkkkkk

[@crystal_vvave9045]

Stone Roses - Fools Gold

[@Quarrel_]

Yeah so why is it called spinning bird kick here, but flying bird kick on Spotify.

[@ulysseschang129]

I am so entranced by this kind of music Anyone knows how or where I can find more songs like this?

[@donnakok4637]

look up the Strokes! similar vibe!

[@donnakok4637]

or the stone roses

[@ulysseschang129]

Yeah I was already a fan of the Strokes before I got into Arctic Monkeys. But they don't seem to have a vocal-less song like this one.

[@donnakok4637]

Ulysses Chang julian casablancas + the voidz have some vocalless tracks and theyre so long and awesome

[@danielyourestillachad5542]

the stooges!!! tho they have vocals in em

[@Rirvicelli]

Radio curtain papi

[@Christian-rn1ur]

Ironic how a song made in reference to street fighter sounds straight from tekken 3

[@fr4nc1s461]

Cadê a letra

[@GeneralOutcast]

I feel more of an Oasis sound in this

[@Garrett1240]

How are they at all similar.

[@mickey4125]

Yeah it's kinda like Fucking In The Bushes by Oasis- also a fucking kickass instrumental tune

[@viceversa5598]

Sounds like Jimmy page guitar

[@benmacaskill9691]

Not at all in any way near shabby

[@viceversa5598]

And John bonham

[@IamRobotMonkey]

Faint Charlatans vibes on this banger.

[@layhor]
