A video was shot for the song, which was recognized as the best video at the NME Awards -2008 [1] .
"Teddy Picker" is the name of an attraction in which you need to hook a stuffed toy with a mechanical claw. In the song Arctic Monkeys, this game becomes a metaphor for "music press obsessions." According to the reviewer of the magazine Clash , Alex Turner appeared in the song in the usual "intelligent caustic" manner for him [2] . According to Digital Spy , “Teddy Picker” clearly stood out among the twelve “strong working” songs on the Favorite Worst Nightmare album with its “fat and juicy” introduction that “can be enjoyed for weeks” [3] .
