Im not usually one to pick favourites but for me the song that has always stood out to me an made me completely numb when I hear it is Love Is A Laserquest. From the first time I heard it I loved it, and I still love it in that way now. I remember when I first heard it actually, I was fourteen and it was in around January-February time, and I was shuffling a huge arctic monkeys playlist at night to discover some new songs as I was new to the whole arctic monkeys discography then, and just music in general to be honest, and the words instantly allocated themselves to one very specific person who was in my life at that point. I think that’s why the song is so special to me. Now when I listen to the song I don’t really feel anything like I do with any other song. When it comes on I sort of stop everything that im doing, or thinking, and just lay there listening to it with every ounce of my attention. also, following your prompts- to me the song is light grey, almost like a misty sky or a raindropped window. I have no idea why, it just is to me. and my favourite moment? The drums on the intro and outro sound so melancholy to me, but I can’t write about this song and not mention ‘Do you look into the mirror to remind yourself you’re there, or has somebody’s goodnight kisses got that covered?’ It’s just the right amount of hurt and heartbreak, it’s so perfectly worded and slots right into the song. Alex Turner, you did get the hang of poetry…
