arctic monkeys - chun li's spinning bird kick

this one i discovered a while after the initial hype with the monkeys, i don't remember when but i do know it was after their first album. i had heard "i bet you look" and saw some where online that it had a b-side called "chun li's spinning bird kick".

i kind of liked the title and i wanted to hear what the lyrics were about. i thought it would be some street fighter II related thing but it turned out the song was instrumental. it starts out with a great intro with some feedback and someone saying "show us your special move" and then it eventually kicks right into the riff that the whole song is built around. it eventually goes into a few breaks and it's quite a nice tune.

i really like groove and i used it in a mixtape type thing i did called "claire & john". it was just a few really good tunes assembled together and i stringed it along with dialogue from john hughes' "the breakfast club". i mostly used dialogue with molly ringwald and judd nelson but on this one i used a bit from ally sheedy since it fit perfectly.
