505 // Arctic Monkeys

Another of my tattoos is 505, it’s a little bit cliché for an Arctic Monkeys fan but it’s just such a great song and from the album that confirmed my love for the band, the debut was great but Favourite Worst Nightmare was solid and developed the Sheffield boys further. The echoing instruments lie distant yet close to the vocals of Alex Turner, who truly is one of the best lyricists there has been, especially in the last fifteen years. ‘505’ combines the slow seductive style of ‘Riot Van’ and the punch of a hit like ‘I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor’.
