when i don't see him it's even harder to understand him

[@yarenakgun3178]

It has subtitles!

[@desireemariec1108]

I make out what he speaks clearly ❤

[@ferwoodz]

LOL

[@mrSam3ooo]

“If it weren’t true I’d know” I love and admire that poetic wittiness that seems to come so naturally to him

[@jagyansenipruthal6703]

This is THE most I've ever heard him talk clearly. Like there are less important pauses and more coherent explanations. Incredible!

[@suhaylolilo]

British accent is therapy for me❤️

[@desireemariec1108]

I’m imagine that most of his friends seek him for sage advice. He delivers with wit, cheeky charm and that cool + relaxed voice!

[@jonnywires11]

British??? That’s 4 countries all split with 60-70 different accents 😂😂. This is South Yorkshire, which is massively different to even north and West Yorkshire. And leagues away from geordie, scouser, West Country, cockney, Oxfordshire, brummy accent, Glaswegian, midlands, then “queens English” eg hugh grant Colin firth/ every “bRiTsH accent” done in American films even though that’s a small part of the south who are posh and rich talk that way 😂😂😂

[@purpledragon565]

This interview has to be edited, Alex Turner has never spoken this fast hahah

[@olwynmassey188]

Alex speaks so fast I have to turn off my Turner listening mode!

[@slow-vibe4769]
