In 2005 you said your overnight fame would come back to bite you in the ass. Has it?

No —it’s only bitten me on the shoulder.

 

—Alex Turner

It also includes many of Turner’s first hand account of his songwriting process:

When the ‘substance’ fills up the syllables they seem to shimmer and become weightless. With the addition of close harmony I see colours swirl together, parts of the lyrics glow and the way in which they float suggests that something like the ‘star gate’ sequence from 2001: A Space Odyssey is happening deep inside them out of view

 

— Alex Turner
