Arctic Monkeys: “Baby I’m Yours” (2006)
From their overpriced 2006 CD single “Leave Before the Lights Come On” comes this B side, a wonderful cover of Barbara Lewis’ 1965 hit. The arrangement really goes for a vintage mid-60’s sound, and in fact they added harmonies the original didn’t have. Plus, unlike Lewis, they don’t mispronounce “satisfied” as “satistfied”.
