I'm trying to find a song I heard on alternative radio about two years ago. It was poppy alternative rock, and the singer had a distinctive voice that reminded me of Lightspeed Champion (Devonte Hynes) --perhaps with a similar British accent.

The lyrics had a number of stock phrases based on gambling --i.e. "roll the dice", "cut the cards", etc. I think it was a love song.

Was it "Don't Sit Down 'Cause I've Moved Your Chair" by the Arctic Monkeys? It came out in 2011 and includes the phrase "roll the dice."

  • Thanks! That's a good suggestion, but this song has much more of a hard rock feel than the one I remember.

  • Oh, ok I'll keep thinking/looking then. Because there's a few floating around in my head that might fit the bill.

  • "Hi, as you might have seen from the tag you used, identification questions are no longer on-topic here" -Joachim. I guess that applies to this question too then?
