Please check out some of my Arctic Monkeys covers: / sparkface
The Arctic Monkeys headlining Reading Festival on the 29th of August 2009.
Song: Secret Door

[@JimmyMoriarty]

Alex swallowed a dictionary.

[@PeteralX]

Why this song didn't become a single is still a mystery to me.

[@g2tennis]

Crying Lightning, My Propeller and Cornerstone were better suited to be singles

[@MRPiki-js4jg]

@@g2tennis 10 yrs too late but alright

[@j.heberhernandez3037]

@@MRPiki-js4jg Same here XD

[@ferwoodz]

@@g2tennis Still the whole album deserved the single

[@AstroSully]

@@g2tennis Crying Lighting yes disagree with the other two

[@psychicspyfromchina9834]

Alex's voice during the Humbug era was a jewel. One of my favourite voices of all time

[@ferwoodz]

YES! ALSO IN EYCTE W LAST SHADOW PUPPETS

[@carlosmejias433]

Yes, I’d say his voice was imperfect and was unique that way, shouldn’t had try to improve too much

[@saabaemr2069]

And nobody talks about how beautiful Nick's voice is.

[@julisalamora]

WOAH MAN PROPS TO O'MALLEY AND HIS UNREAL SKILLS ON THIS PERFORMANCE (on absolutely all of them being honest, but he's particularly killing it on this one)

[@kingsqueenjude]

i dont think i will ever ever get over the amazingness of this song. i'm blown away every time i hear it. i love watching it live....witnessing the magic happen!

[@melianna8187]

This is literally my favorite song of all time. Could listen to this over and over again and be more amazed each time

[@lilyobrien8856]

Crying

[@dafty9159]

Lightning

[@deffonotacatgirl811]

We need to thank Alexa Chung for this masterpiece of a song. Hell of a muse, that woman.

[@brunotortarolo]

This song, not only awesome as it is, has some fucking marvellous piece of lyrics

[@officeaddict33]

This was around the time his voice started to change (for the better). He lost that raspy quality and it became much more smooth.

[@GiorgosSartabakos]

possibly the greatest song Alex wrote..in my opinion of course

[@rogergarcia816]

Have u heard, STAR TREATMENT

[@vvarnavaa]

@@rogergarcia816he wrote that comment in 2013 and star treatment came out w/ tbhc in 2018

[@keaneong4591]

i would do anythin for them to play this live now with alex's matured voice

[@Too.Much.To.Ask0114]

Oh, they are

[@ryannichols2046]

the #1 old song I want to see with the fuller band setup for The Car. would fit Alex's voice perfectly and the bigger band will fill it out well. plus it works well alongside the new songs

[@rafaelescobar4565]

FOOOOOOOOOOOLS ON PARADE

[@arturorios1192]

Man, the Humbug era was so mysthic and beautiful, great album and iconic songs. God bless Arctic Monkeys.

[@dariosl86]

Best song of the album, it's sad and energetic at the same time. The last part just makes me wanna cry!

[@herrysaputrayunior2675]

Agree...

[@Alext13]

Reallll

[@Slizi108]

fuck, this song keeps getting more and more amazing each time I listen to it

[@VNdrummer]

Best song from Humbug :)

[@tiagorodriguez6880]

What the fuck are you say? The best song of humbug is Cornerstone

[@TheDCxGamers]

[@greenfrancey467]

[@scienceseason7059]

[@robsdianten1]

One of my favorites arctic monkeys' songs. I'm going to see them again on November and I hope they play it 🤩

[@OnothandoNgoyi]

I love his hair during this era

[@lukee100]

possibly the best 4 minutes of music all weekend.

[@unknown_chillhuman]

This is so magical and nostalgic..

[@ellabrown9628]

banger i so wish they still played this live

[@djskywalkerr]

NEVER HEARD IT LIVE............. EPIC!!!

[@ferwoodz]

This album has such a hold on me.

[@irena2009]

beautiful! I love this song... I love Alex.

[@Alext13]

I wish they played this song live

[@melaniehernandez3541]

Magnificent

[@jesusdourado]

getting better through time

[@certainromance24]

Amazing :)

[@rubensmarques8970]

Jamie is awesome. Reading 2009 is his performance, for sure.

[@lpa7x29091985]

this song need to be played louder. they failed to convey the beauty of the song when they played it live.

[@muhaiminnazrie8434]

Muhammad Reza Fadillah you need turn up your volume at your phone

[@Andye.sadder]

I don't think so. This version is by far my fav. They got a lot of loud songs, there's no need for another one. You should try to appreciate it in another way. :)

[@nadia_17]

waiting for the day they play this again

[@imv831]

such a fucking amazing song

[@dariosl86]

@senoirEB Best song of the album, it's sad and energetic at the same time. The last part just makes me wanna cry!

[@marianodn89]

El tema esta buenisimo, la interpretacion muy fria...The song is great, Interpretation its so cold

[@Andye.sadder]

That's the point.

[@lukeparris9419]

0:00-3:54 is the best part, thank me later

[@chocosheepart3328]

its been 3 years and i wanna say thank you

[@alexgonzalez8954]

Man Alex has such beautiful hair

[@DirtbikesRfun2ride]

@lakegrove95 Humbug is probably their best album. I spelled probably wrong so I corrected it by sending another message.

[@anabanana1594]

Fools on parade cavort and carry on for waiting eyes That you would rather be beside than in front of But she's never been the kind to be hollowed by the stares She swam out of tonight's phantasm Grabbed my hand and made it very clear There's absolutely nothing for us here It's a magnolia celebration to be attempted on a Wednesday night It's better than to get a reputation as a miserable little tyke At least that's the conclusion she came to in this overture And the secret door swings behind us She's saying nothing, she's just giggling along Her arms were folded most indignant Not looking like she was soon to leave I had to squint in order to believe And then like a butler pushing on a bookshelf I'm unveiling the unexpected I, who was earlier reluctant Was suddenly embarrassed and corrected How could such a creature survive in such a habitat? And the secret door swings behind us She's saying nothing, she's just giggling along Even if they were to find us I wouldn't notice, I'm completely occupied As all the fools on parade cavort and carry on for waiting eyes Ones you would rather be beside than in front of But she's never been the kind to be hollowed by the stares Fools on parade frolic and fuck about to make her gaze Turn to a scribble on a page by a picture that holds her absence But you're daft to think she'd care Fools on parade Fools on parade Fools on parade Conduct a sing-along

[@cmancrib]

@elfernando8 i love his mom too.

[@Menspol]

@cmancrib Yeap i love his mom too

[@ProgressiveMar]

que sarpadisimo tema la puta madre loco! ♥ From Argentina :D

[@dedemaister]

did anyone else notice that nick is playing with his fingers instead of a pick?

[@jasoli1749]

@AdmiralOddSock to Nick it isnt

[@XxSamruddhiXx]

is it possible to tattoo a live performance on your forehead? asking for a friend

[@yakirkobaivanov3637]

technically yes...there'd be a lot of nano sized 1's and 0's...

[@Vulpes_Vulpes_Vulpes]

I wasn't making a negative comment, I was saying that even the audience at reading (which I was lucky enough to be apart of) went quiet for it

[@vickylima8523]

NICHOLAS O'MALLEYYYYY

[@rflrsntadlscntt]

this is my roman empire

[@gkittpt]

True, thanks for mentioning it, sorry to be rude.

[@dantesatriatama]

the dislikes come from unsecret door

[@SinkDifferent]

1 person can't survive in such a habitat !!!

[@Mari-mw6zp]

I love you

[@DirtbikesRfun2ride]

@lakegrove95 probably*

[@MrThepainters]

@bonsuboy this song is a ballad ,people are not supposed to mosh like metalheads listening to that..do you understand that?

[@badcer23]

amazing song y alex turner good

[@LucasLima-gl5cq]

2:40 foooools on parade

[@BleepBloopVM]

Why on heart would they put at a very low volume the keyboards on this song? Blame on the sound guy!

[@DirtbikesRfun2ride]

@lakegrove95 Humbug is probable their best album.. just saying.

[@yoomatiass]

mucho the doors por aquí

[@julescouto6247]

[@ibbyukii]

how can such a creature survive in such a habitat.

[@lqmnakml7313]

[@jakeholmes5927]

Jamie though.

[@ryanabram4940]

Based on the horrendous grammar and spelling in that response, I don't need to say anything at all.

[@gkittpt]

who cares? hahaha

[@ryanabram4940]

Well, they're stoned.

[@benhowarth843]

Ryan Abram they're trying to be stereotypical rockstars... but it hasn't really worked

[@dayshawna]

Ben Howarth or maybe they just like being high lmao
