Arctic Monkeys – The Blond-O-Sonic Shimmer Trap Lyrics 9 years ago
I get the feeling from the lyrics, the melodies and the sound of the song as a total, sort of dark and deep (which reminds me a bit of the humbug's vibe), that the girl from the song is a spoiled, beautiful daddy's girl, but also a man-hypnotizer, the kind of woman who steals a room's atention when she walks in.
She doesn't care for beauty or unique things like the cadyllac's mirrors she breaks, even though they're special, she just breaks things for fun, in a childish way, and "she has never had to strain her back when she was putting her lippy on" means to me that she has never had to work for her own stuff, she's had it all since the beginning.
But, she knows how to shake love's steady hand, means all that spoilesness has turned her into a poisoning lover, who'll do anything to get what she want's, even getting to a point where she doesn't even care if she gets it or not, kind of a weird sence of freedom from the power of making small but meaningfull mistakes.

Amazing song, one of my favourites from the band

Arctic Monkeys – Cigarette Smoker Fiona Lyrics 10 years ago
Amazing song, lyrics are great, the way he puts into words a whole point of view about rich families and girls specificly, and those partys where high society sort of "looses it".

I imagine the guys from the band laughing and joking around in that context.

The way he pronounces the words in this song and the rithm the lyrics have are amazing things to pay atention to also.

Arctic Monkeys – Who the Fuck Are Arctic Monkeys? Lyrics 10 years ago
About the part of Christopher Columbus, I believe it's about adding yourself credit for discovering not only a band, but something as a type of music, and I think AM say it to those bands who think they re invent rock, given the fact that they are a rock band themselves, they refer to bands who believe they are doing something completely new, when actually it's part of the same thing "the settlers have already settled", such as rock, pop, punk, for example.
