Net 'High' op Absolute Radio (was aan het luisteren voor Miles) maar ik dacht dat we een leuke radio-edit zouden krijgen?
Hij zingt nog steeds "High", talkin the same 'shite' wordt dan wel weer gecensureerd.

Haha, ik zei dat het dat het niet was.

Wél in stijl van de hiphop/r&b - haat het om dit op één hoop te gooien - clips rondom de millenniumwisseling: de nieuwe video starten met een gedeelte van de vorige single op de achtergrond. Het 'Parental Advisory'-logo in het begin is ook een hilarisch knipoog daarnaartoe.

Ik lees het nu inderdaad, maar dacht dat er nog veel meer aan veranderd zou zijn.

Inderdaad, al vond ik dat vannacht wel een beetje verwarrend, dacht eerst dat het een soort nieuwe clip voor 'Do I Wanna Know' zou zijn( ) Totdat High daadwerkelijk begon.

Ben benieuwd of 3fm het een beetje oppikt, Do I Wanna Know is opzich best vaak gedraaid

Ja, vaker dan welke single van ze in de afgelopen jaren dan ook - zelfs 'R U Mine?' is volledig genegeerd - maar slechts sporadisch op prime-time. Dat dateert toch alweer van 'Fluorescent Adolescent' - "die met die gekke titel hihi" - die zelfs megahit was.

Inderdaad, zat het lijstje net ook door te scrollen. Fluorescent Adolescent steekt er echt met kop en schouders bovenuit. Maar het zou me eerlijk gezegd niks verbazen als ze met 'High' in ieder geval weer een beetje die kant op gaan. Ik ben benieuwd naar de charts deze week.

Ik ook heel erg. Als die kartonnetjes geldig zijn voor de charts - mag toch hopen dat ze dat uitgezocht hebben - en ze daadwerkelijk voor een pond bij elke HMV liggen...

Je zou toch denken van wel. Anders heeft het niet zo veel zin om die singles te verkopen. Veel winst zullen ze er niet mee maken maar voor de charts zal het ontzettend goed werken.
Weet alleen niet of er deze week nog een andere populaire single uitkomt, die succes in de weg zou kunnen staan.

Daarover gesproken, minus een paar woorden, oehhhh 'Iris' op Absolute Radio .

Omdat ik nooit woorden ga vinden heb ik vorige maand dit filmpje gemaakt aan de band van mijn eigen beelden (omdat ik wist dat de BBC het weer zou laten liggen). Hoop dat het een goed sfeerbeeld geeft van de legendarische editie die Glastonbury 2013 was:

So Lamie, how did you get involved with the Arctic Monkeys video?

Funny story actually, In the casting we had to do a lil acting piece in our underwear, but I hadn't received the email telling me this and I rushed to the casting before a different shoot and saw everyone wearing dressing gowns and was like, what the? So anyway, I was wearing the tiniest underwear I could have possibly picked (G- string tiny). I basically did the casting naked. I walked in like: Im really sorry about this guys... Ha. Maybe thats why I got it?

What was Nabil like as a director?

He was a cool guy, he knows what he wants thats for sure. I mean he has a pretty incredible portfolio so Im sure he knows what he is doing! Although, he cut out my Oscar winning performance of turning off the TV and having a stretch at the end, cheek of it.

How long did it take to shoot the video?

We shot over 2 days, both 12 hour night shifts... I was shattered! On the second day I took a nap under the make up counter while Alex was shooting his parts, the team leader guy came down to the dressing room to see me flat out and almost had a heart attack. I think he thought I'd passed out. I was like: "I'm just chilling dude, no worries."

There are some pretty sexual scenes you're involved in, what were they like to shoot?

Thats another thing, I had no idea it was going to be so explicit. I just turned up and was like: Oh right! I should probably sort my emails out or something? They were interesting to shoot, to be fair it was really professional, everyone in the video are trained actors and it is only acting, nothing touched me! (Eww!) I didn't actually have to have sex with the kebab guy. Or did I...(No)

What was the band like?

I only spoke to/spent time with Alex and Matt. The whole band only stayed for the first part of the first night. The second night it was only me, Alex, the team and the extras.

Are you a fan of their music?

Yes! I used to listen to them non stop when I was in 6th form, I was stoked that I was going to get the chance to be in the video, despite arriving and realising I'm about to be passed around via Alex's drunk state of mind. Lol!

So do you have any anecdotes from making the video?

I dunno really. But riding the motorbike naked was quite a hoot. I thought Id be freezing but those choppers are pretty toasty. Despite only seeing a 2 sec clip in the video we went up and down the street quite a few times!

One thing was pretty cute at the end of the shoot when I said my goodbyes. Alex went to kiss me on the cheek he slipped and kissed my ear by accident and said: "Sorry love, didn't mean to kiss you on your ear like ya nan" - (That was in a Sheffield accent by the way.) A month on and I still haven't washed this ear... Just kidding... Or am I?

I also remember eating a lot of watermelon...Yum.

What was the after party like?

It was amazing, very soft & white... (my bed). We finished shooting both nights at like 4am! The only thing any of us wanted to do was sleep!

You put on Twitter that 'Alex Turner is just as ridiculously good looking in real life', any romantic encounters there?

Haha yes he is, I don't know a girl who doesn't think so!We did have a romantic encounter actually. In my dream, we got married and I gave birth to some rock n roll kittens with Turner quiffs.

Are you working on anything else at the moment?

I enjoy drawing and recently I have been working on putting together my art portfolio. Otherwise just modelling and generally being weird... Might join a bowling team?

5 Things We Learned From Arctic Monkeys Whyd You Only Call Me When Youre High? Video

Booze, booty calls and sleazy hallucinations: its all in a night out for Alex Turner, who swaps his recent LA living for a drunken stumble through the streets of East London in the video to Whyd You Only Call Me When Youre High, the third single from Arctic Monkeys upcoming AM LP. But what are the hideouts he visits? Whos the Stephanie he spends the video pursuing? And is the state of music sales really that dire that Turner cant afford a smartphone instead of a vintage Nokia? Heres five things we learned from the new video.

Alex Turner is bringing sexy back

As if its sex-dripped rhythms and lusty lyrics (Now its three in the morning and Im trying to change your mind) werent seductive enough, new single Whyd You Only Call Me When Youre High comes backed by a clip packed with more nudity and debauchery than a weekend at R. Kellys crib. Turners evolution into a slick haired, James Dean style pin-up continues. I had no idea the shoot was going to be so explicit, model Lamie Stewart, who plays Stephanie, tells NME. I missed an email, so when I turned up I was like... riiiight! The scene where I have sex with the man in the kebab shop was quite hilarious, especially: the kebab guy was actually the sweetest thing. He was more nervous than I was! Ive been a fan of the band for a very long time, since 6th form, so was very happy when I won the role to be in the video, despite being passed around via Alex's drunken mind state!

It pushes Arctics hip-hop credentials

The clip is directed by Chicago-born photographer Nabil Elderkin. In last months NME cover feature, the band revealed their new record to have been influenced by Dr. Dre. Elderkin pushes the rap connection on AM further: hes a close friend of Kanye West, having bought the domain kanyewest.com after hearing a mixtape from the then-unknown rapper. Months later, Jay Zs Roc-A-Fella Records, having just signed West on a multi-album deal, contacted Elderkin to ask how much hed sell the domain for. When Elderkin agreed to transfer the domain name for free provided he could meet West and photograph him, these images went on to be the artist's first publicity photos. Fingers crossed he can arrange a guest spot for the rapper on the next album

Its full of references

The melting clock is a nod to surrealist Salvador Dalis famous painting The Persistence of Memory. The motorbikes that pass during one sequence, meanwhile, are said to be a reference to the bands Evil Twin promo. Eagle-eyed viewers will notice its packed with the bands trademark dry, disparaging humour, too when Stephanie picks up her phone at the end of the clip, shes saved Turners name as Alex band guy.

Its a homecoming of sorts

After two years exiled in Los Angeles, with Turner dating model/actress girlfriend Arielle Vandenberg, and having recorded their previous two albums in California, this is a return to their British roots. The video was recorded the Monday after the band's Glastonbury headline performancee and, according to Stewart, Turner spent time between takes watching Turkish music videos with the crew and extras, So rock n roll!

Do try this at home

The pub Turner begins his descent into debauchery is Howl At The Moon in Hoxton, spilling out onto Hoxton Street as he makes his way towards the home of 'Stephanie'. In the video the Monkeys are seen ordering a round in at 3.30am, perhaps a nod to the hangouts former marathon opening hours over weekends. These days, it closes at 1am on weekends. Also, instead of mind-altering hallucogenics, its really more light snacks and import lagers they serve. It all takes place on one street, apart from my flat, which was a five minute cab drive away, says Stewart. Now all you need is the Google Maps location, a bottle of Tesco vodka, and you can recreate the video yourself.
