Arctic Monkeys' lead singer Alex Turner has never been one to shy away from sleazy come-ons, but "Stop The World I Wanna Get Off With You" -in spite of its crass title- seems a bit smoother than the chick-chasing antics of "Still Take You Home" or "Dancing Shoes."
The B-side to "Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High?" from upcoming album AM has Turner fantasising about all the potential shapes a particular girl can make, if she were to go home with him. It's in a similar vein as the A-side, a track about booty calls, but seems a tad more seductive and cooler.
If the track has a downside, it lies in how similar it sounds to other AM tracks. I can't be the only one who here's the almost note-for-note copy of the riff from "Do I Wanna Know?" in the background of this track. Maybe the riff is a unifying theme of the album, maybe the boys of Arctic Monkeys are just getting lazy.
It remains to be seen but we'll definitely find out when AM hits shelves September 6.
