"505" is a song by English rock band Arctic Monkeys. Written by lead singer and frontman Alex Turner and produced by James Ford and Mike Crossey, it is the closing track on the band's second studio album, Favourite Worst Nightmare (2007).
The song was a sleeper hit, initially peaking at number 73 on the UK Singles Chart. In late 2022, it gained a resurgence in popularity due to usage on the social media platform TikTok. As a result, "505" peaked at number two on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 and number 94 on the Billboard Global 200. It is the band's third-most streamed song on Spotify, behind "Do I Wanna Know?" and "I Wanna Be Yours" (both from their 2013 album AM), with 2.2 billion streams as of May 2025.
A live version was released on 19 November 2020 as a promotional single for the band's second live album, Live at the Royal Albert Hall (2020).
