Album Cover

edit

Does anyone know who is on the album cover? I feel that would be a useful bit of knowledge in the article. omnijohn 23:24, 8 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

I can't remember his name but he was a "Stranger on the Sofa" on Soccer AM on Saturday 7th Feb... not that that's any help really... DJR (Talk) 20:35, 9 March 2006 (UTC)Reply
His name is Chris McClure. He's a friend of the band's Doc Strange 13:27, 17 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
Created a Wikipedia account to comment! Some joker has put about the album cover: "The face of the album is a greek actor called Dimitris Papamichail; famous for having a relationship with the renounced greek actress, Aliki Vougiouklaki". Change has been present since 31st Dec 2020. I'm not going to change/remove it. Just curious how long it will take before someone notices :D FadBotherMucker (talk) 15:04, 19 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Album Sales

edit

any one no people have been saying around 2million lol it might be in the uk it has sold 867.000 so far

Confirmed as above 900,000 by BPI in February, likely to be over a million by now but no confromation on 4*Platinum figure.

Songwriters?

edit

In the tab book, it credits each song to Turner, except for Still Take You Home to Turner/Cook. Is this information worth putting in? Saveourcity 05:24, 05 February 2007 UTC

Winnipeg Sun

edit

is the winnipeg sun really a good source to be getting music rating information from? I think the list without it is substantial enough, the winnipeg sun is hardly a prolific publication. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Daverd2 (talkcontribs) 23:44, 19 November 2007 (UTC) Not even people in Winnipeg care what the Winnipeg Sun has to say. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.200.206.56 (talk) 21:47, 25 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

fanish??

edit

"Arctic Monkeys are labeled 'indie rock' but don't quite match the the title. They bring their own style to the table and that's what we all love about them. Hopefully the media will recognize them as just the Arctic Monkeys as apposed to an indie rock band."

is it me or does this seem like a slightly fanish thing to say? You know, by fans. lol. "that's what we all love about them"... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.42.206.24 (talk) 15:53, 9 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Well yeah, isn't bringing their own style what "indie" rock is all about? --Ekaiyu (talk) 04:08, 18 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Mardy Bum page

edit

Should Mardy Bum be given its own page? Though not officially released as a single, it has nevertheless become one of the most popular and well-known Arctic Monkeys songs. 92.17.141.10 (talk) 16:56, 27 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
