If we can raise the overall post quality and include more discussions then I definitely think we can get official.
Anyways I'll start off.
Crying Lightning is primetime Arctic Monkeys and definitely makes it into my top 5 Arctic Monkeys songs. Love the deep bass, and how they're able to jam out on all their instruments without making it sound overcrowded. Crying Lightning was the most popular song off of Humbug but it topped out at #11 on the charts. Alex Turner really is an awesome singer/songwriter because he knows his voice and can make the lyrics flow very well (also if you're a QOTSA fan, Josh Homme produced Humbug).
I agree, the lyrics flow really nice, and I like that they're original.
Also like the bass in this song, don't often hear the bass so clear which is something I like alot.

the talent.
here's an awesome song that I found, I actually REALLY like this. alot.
didn't like the first 2 minutes that much because it was kinda repetitive, but the rap part was pretty cool.
Alright guys, I'd like to know what your first experience with music you can remember is!
(not counting lullaby's and those old school songs)
My first experience with music are songs from Sonata Arctica, my sister always listened to metal and when I finally got my own mp3-player I asked her to put some music on, she overloaded it with Sonata Arctica and some other metal bands, the first time I ever listened to it I was completely blown away. I've always had a place in my heart for Sonata Arctica then.
I wonder if you guys have any cool story about your first meeting with music ;p
edit: added the song because I was stupid and forgot to add it.
