The lads played tracks from their forthcoming album "Favourite Worst Nightmare" which is released on the 23rd April, 2007. They also played the obligatory live lounge cover, a version of Amy Winehouse's song "You know I'm no good".
The Arctic Monkeys achieved chart success with their first two singles, "I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor" and "When the Sun Goes Down", reaching number one in the UK Singles Chart. Their debut album Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not became the fastest-selling debut album in British music history and received critical acclaim, winning the 2006 Mercury Prize.
