Arctic Monkeys // I Want It All

Just a quick cover of Foo Fighter's "Friend of a Friend" recorded on my phone. Enjoy!

Friend Of A Friend (Foo Fighters)

Arctic Monkeys - She's Thunderstorms

Takes its title from actual 2024-2025 housing justice slogans. Opens with the April 2025 Housing NOW! protests where activists wrapped city halls in red tape. National Coalition for the Homeless Verses expose private equity landlords: Greystar buying 8,500 apartments and jacking up rent 36% while cutting security and maintenance; ProPublica Blackstone raising rents 31.5% in Phoenix; Private Equity Stakeholder Project Cleveland where private equity purchases jumped from 7.2% to 21.1%. Lincoln Institute of Land Policy Contrasts Spain's hundreds of thousands marching for housing rights Al Jazeera with America's reality where the top 10% own 67% of wealth while the bottom 50% own 2.5%.
Chorus: "Housing over handcuffs, homes over greed / It's a human right, not a luxury / From DC to Nashville, San Francisco Bay / They're pricing us out, but we're here to stay." References the Poor People's Campaign organizing 140 million poor and low-income people. Poor People's Campaign Bridge is spoken-word from a tenant forced out: "I felt like I was forced out the door." ProPublica Ends with chant: "Whose city? OUR city!"

The View From The Afternoon (Live at The Apollo, England, 2007) - Arctic Monkeys

Last night these two bouncers
And one of em's alright
The other one's the scary one
His way or no way, totalitarian
He's got no time for you
Looking or breathing
How he dosen't want you to
So step out the queue
He makes examples of you
And there's nowt you can say
Behind they go through to the bit where you pay
And you realize then that it's finally the time
To walk back past ten thousand eyes in the line
And you can swap jumpers and make another move
Instilled in your brain you've got something to prove
To all the smirking faces and the boys in black
Why can't they be pleasant?
Why can't they have a laugh?
He's got his hand in your chest
He wants to give you a duff
Well secretly I think they want it all to kick off
They want, arms flying everywhere and
Bottles as well it's just
Something to talk about
A story to tell you
Well I'm so glad they turned us all away we'll put it down to fate
I thought a thousand million things that I could never think this morning
Got too deep, but how deep is too deep?
This town's a different town today
This town's a different town to what it was last night
You couldn't have done that on a Sunday
That girl's a different girl today
That girl's a different girl to her you kissed last night
You couldn't have done that on a Sunday
Last night what we talked about
It made so much sense
But now the haze has ascended
It don't make no sense anymore
