“I guess I’ve written with more people and collaborated than Alex has, being solo,” Kane tells Live4ever. “That’s been great and turned out good, but anything me and Al write, or when we work together, it’s different. And even though those other things were enjoyable and are great, there’s just something else, the outcome definitely couldn’t happen without doing it together. He rounds off my edges when we sing together.“

“I haven’t really done this with anyone else,” Turner concludes. “I mean, I write with the Monkeys but it’s in a different sort of way. I think when people talk about when siblings sing together there’s something that happens with the harmony, I feel like there’s a bit of that. It clicks into place with the two voices together.”

Which leaves us with a big question for the future: when will the next spark arrive? Another eight years? Next week? Tomorrow? Never? What’s apparent is the last people to ask are probably Alex Turner and Miles Kane, settled as they are in this most unique of songwriting partnerships, accepting it brings out their best but content to allow it to flourish and develop at its own pace.
