Tame Impala’s “Feels Like We Only Go Backwards” has already been interpreted by Dave Harrington, Chrome Canyon, Memory Tapes, Kendrick Lamar, A$AP Rocky, and the PS22 Kids Chorus, among others, and we’re still not sick of it. Now Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner is the latest to take on the Lonerism standout. He played a solo acoustic version of the song for Tame Impala’s Aussie homeland’s radio station triple j. Watch that performance along with the band’s stripped-down “Do I Wanna Know?” below.
"So, let us not be blind to our differences - but let us also direct attention to our common interests and to the means by which those differences can be resolved. And if we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity. For, in the final analysis, our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this small planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children's future. And we are all mortal." JFK, June 10, 1963.
