Alex Turner's best non-Arctic Monkeys tracks, ranked
Happy Birthday, Alex: Because there's much more to AT than AM
4. 'Hiding Tonight': The most languid and unassuming of Turner's brilliant Submarine soundtrack. It's a tale of introspection and shyness, and its lyrics, "Tomorrow I'll be quicker / I'll stare into the strobe light flicker /And afloat I'll stay... But I'm quite alright hiding today", are quietly heartbreaking.

6 January 2015: Today is Alex Turner's 29th birthday. That's right - Turner has five albums under his belt with one of the most successful bands in the world, and he's still not reached 30 yet.
As if that wasn't achievement enough though, Turner has also turned his hand to incredible soundtracks, side projects and collaborations. Given that very often the success of Arctic Monkeys overshadows Turner's other work (not, admittedly, the worst predicament in the world), we've decided to shine a light on his greatest, non-Arctic Monkeys, songs.
Have a good one, Alex.
