You ever create a fake scenario so good you have to replay that moment over and over again
Have you ever read Simon Armitage's interview with Arctic Monkeys? Has one of the most incredible descriptions of Alex honestly
Yes, this one, right? It's quite something, isn't it? It's iconic, and you're right, it's an incredible description!
He really nailed the ethereal beauty of Humbug era Alex.. And he sounds absolutely obsessed with him as well, completely captured by his beauty. And I don't blame him 😂
".. the slender, almost weightless hand of Alex Turner"
And come on.. this is just.. wow.. Imagine being an established journalist getting paid to write this! It almost reads as fanfiction!
".. there's an ethereal, almost gravity-defying quality about the man himself, twisting in his chair, floating in his thoughts. Turner exhibits a sort of double jointed-ness of both body and mind, as if he might metamorphose into a puff of smoke or ring-tailed lemur should the notion occur to him. A kind of human slinky, he looks like he could turn around inside his Highly Evolved T-shirt without taking it off or even touching the sides, and with his long, wavy hair and big brown horse eyes, it would be churlish to deny that he is a creature of beauty."
And I mean, he's really spot on! He was just staring into those dark eyes, completely caught in those depths and marveled by his gorgeousness and charmed when Alex paid for his beer. Such a flirt, right? Poor Simon!
".. staring at me just long enough for me to see my reflection in the black pits of his pupils. And then he looked away."
It's almost like a romantic tale, isn't it?
I actually really enjoy the article, he's clearly done his homework and the way he is allowed to sneak a peek at some of Alex's notebooks is truly remarkable. They must have trusted him, showing him around their old neighbourhood and their houses. And he fell right in love with Alex on the spot in return. I mean, who wouldn't? 😍 Well worth a read!

Hozier really turned my habit of sleeping at 3 am from “oh god I’m so mentally ill and childish” to I take my whiskey neat and my coffee black and I don’t know how I can repay him except add another listened count on Spotify every hour.
