  • @axionet why?

    

  • songs amazing

    

  • I came for the music, I stayed for the tron joke.

  • thumbs up or down if u just found hm last year o_O

  • He is amazing, this song has a great sound AND a good message?!! its perfect.

  • Sweet Baby Jesus

  • Didn't really think much of this song. Watched Julian playing an acoustic version of this and now I'm hooked.

  • Julian's voice is so sexy!

  • Like if this gave you goose bumps (x

  • looks like ryan hargrove

  • One of my favourit songs, takes a couple times of listening to really like it, JULIAN MAKE MORE LIKE THIS PLEASE :D

  • thought this sucked but i had to watch it again for some reason.and again. and now i cant stop...damn this song is sweet.

  • OMG HE WINKED AT 4:05!!!

  • he looks like rodrick from diary of a whimpy kid. thumbs up if you agree.

  • Jules, you're so sexy when you're angry. I wish you didn't have a family. :3

  • 48 people thought the dislike button was a love button :D

  • Comment removed

  • I'm going to have to show my friends this song and they'll show others.

  • Cool song

  • Please tell me that people just discovering him have at LEAST heard of The Strokes. They're still the biggest band to come out of NYC in the last 10 years. And they've played for SNL a bunch of times. You'd have to be living under a rock....

  • @savvysearch My rock has under-floor heating. And a plasma TV. The only problem is the snakes.

  • @savvysearch and besides them what good band has come out of nyc in the last 10 years? lol

  • how it can be so perfect, I love this song, I love Julian :)

  • He is so frickin' CUTE! <3

  • Merci beaucoup, Julian ;)

  • why does beck from victorious(on teen nick) look so much like him?

  • i hate how everyone loves julian only because of boombox, hes got more talent then tits itsself

  • Disappointment in America? For shame (sarcasm) I like the lyrics to the song as well, the vid was interesting and he has a unique voice. Refreshing to hear something like this after most of the crap out there

  • 1:30 WHY NOT ME

  • I love your song, I love your voice, love your eyes they have a life, talk while you sing sorry my bad English, bjos this Brazilian woman who admires you very much

  • ♥_______♥ Julian!!

  • those eyes are intense but holy shit that smile

  • Julian= perfect...

    voice

    face

    hair

    body

    EVERYTHING!!

    BRING ME AN AMBERLAMPS!! IM GONNA DIE!!

  • I think it's ridiculous that some Strokes fans get pissy about people only discovering them/Julian because of Boombox, I love the Strokes but atleast I can see that Julian wouldn't have done it if he didn't think it would generate some publicity for his solo career. Some people need to grow up and stop getting themselves in a fluster just because they like being out of the mainstream! rant well and truly over.

  • @blueHEW we rant because people who found him from boombox, say that the strokes suck,

  • he looks better with sunglass but i still think he's cute :3

  • anger is weakness

    patience is strength

  • Por qué es taan lindo? Por qué?

  • This is actually a pretty cool video.

  • I LOVE YOU JULIAN

  • I forgot how good this music video was. Love it.

  • The Strokes = Julian Casablancas

  • if you came here for boombox, and you liked casablancas, i recomend you to listen to the strokes... you NEED

  • The concept of this video is really good

  • Love it

  • I could watch this video a million times and never get sick of it

  • boombox exposed me to this amazing artist. Shame is though he would've been extremely popular if he was in the 80's. Great music and I like the message :)

  • @weller31989 Dude, he's already extremely popular. This is the lead singer of The Strokes. So no worries :P

  • @weller31989 haha same here

  • Comment removed

  • lol 12:51 props is it?

  • "every positive action has a reward."

  • this song is the best song I have ever seen Julian Casablancas perform....love the Strokes...not a fan of 'boombox'...but this song is just incredible.

  • def not a toy boy

  • What does she say at 1:35?

  • @xXxScottishVenomxXx

    "Your faith has got to be greater than your fear,

    Forgive them, even if they are not sorry"

  • um what.......

  • someone kept his 12:51 jacket .. ;)

  • Please tell me who the girl is at the bar at 1:34

  • I like his voice but this song is just terrible :L

  • @InfurnoGaming no its not. it has a very catchy unique melody. plus the lyrics actually talk about something of meaning.

  • @InfurnoGaming you're gonna get tons of hate for that comment =P

  • @mantoocha Yeah... I know :L

  • his eyes 

  • That percussionist is such a little pixie anyone know her name?

  • @gummybear100 i believe her name is danielle haim. She also does percussion for his live shows.

  • My hero...

  • Fuck Vevo, i prefer seein' it here.

  • this is great!! it sounds amazing, new style for julian . hilarious the movement with the hands 0:30 it looks like a boyband in 1:20 he says i've never been so good at shakin' hands but i'd bet the can do better things with those hands!!!if u know what i mean !!!!

  • lo unico que le falta a esta rola era el hermoso bajeo que tenian the strokes

  • pure art <3

  • Seriously need to let this go, people. So what if someone found Jules/The Strokes from Boombox? Who cares if you've known them since they first came out? All that matters is that you're here now, so STFU and move on with your lives. Better yet, enjoy the music.

  • He's very sexy.

  • Thumbs up if lonely island bringed you here :D

  • I'm not mad that people found Julian Casablancas from Boombox Just feel sorry for them. I mean they been missing from amazing singer music and barely now discovering. :p Love this song <3 I'm glad you guys discovered this awesome singer. Now go listen to other songs Julian Casablancas /The Strokes :)

  • @bodyofmydreams

    It's quite sad since most of the earliest The Strokes songs are not made available to be viewed in my country..

    Thanks to Boombox I have the chance to figure out Julian and The Strokes....

  • Who's Julian Casablancas, and what's Boombox?

  • @ImFrankRizzo A BOOMBOX IS NOT A TOY!!!

  • @ImFrankRizzo Lonely Island got to see it

  • @ImFrankRizzo THE FUCK?

  • @ImFrankRizzo ...are you serious...

  • @ImFrankRizzo *does sarcastic troll face*

  • @ImFrankRizzo julian is the singer and the boombox was a song he did with the lonely island

  • @ImFrankRizzo he is also in a band called the strokes

  • I love music videos that make you think. I watched this at least 10 times to absorb everything. And now I understand it. YES

  • Comment removed

  • this is very 80's

  • you guys can't tell the 70's from the 80's

  • Stop complaining about other people complaining and scroll up for fuck sake.

  • this music video is trapped in the 70's but good song

  • OMG. cmon people. more with the boombox? i say it doesnt matter how we found him, just that we found him. and all the people who care how me or anyone else got here should just keep their opinions to themselves.

  • I LOVE ALL OF JULIAN CASABLANCAS FANS AND I FORGIVE THEM EVEN IF THEY ARE NOT SORRY THAT THEY SAID I DON'T DESERVE TO LIKE HIM BECAUSE OF BOOMBOX XD

  • I never watch this in HD for safety purposes.

  • @OMFGgennypotter That type of stuff'll get chya pregnant by meer eargasm. Nevermind Julian's face in Hi Def!

  • @raddestgirlEVARR

    WORRRRRRRRD.

  • OMG SHUUUUT UUUUUP.

    Just because we weren't listening to him for years doesn't mean we don't deserve to be fans! Fuck off!

  • boombox or not, who the fuck cares.

  • Why is everybody arguing on this video? ... I'm pretty sure you're doing the exact opposite of what the song is about.

  • It's freaking music, if people like it, they should be able to enjoy it freely. What the hell does it matter how you got here, as long as you are here now, listening to the song.

  • 4:06 That's a pretty sweet guitar for a post-apocalyptic era!

  • i cant believe people never heard to strokes

    that they dont even know julian casablancas just for boombox which is a awsome song just FOR ~~JULIAN CASABLANCAS~~

  • hes voice is jsut wow

  • just another anarchist!! .. it is a phase of the youth... down the road.. werealize need structure and governs.. but man has greed like love and hate!!! so corruption will always arise!!!!

  • the first time i saw him was with this song not with boombox

  • @xpledgeturnprestigex I understand where you're coming from I grew up with the Strokes but never knew about his solo work till Boombox. Is that so bad? Music is supposed to help you relax, heal, or get into a mindset you love stop turning it into a battle field. If his music inspires us and we enjoy it then lets do just that instead of wasting time in pointless youtube arguments.

  • he has my name....

  • Julian Casablancas and The Strokes in my heart. For fucking ever.

  • Wtf was this shit I just watched?

  • julian is now my new fav singer

  • Comment removed

  • Drop your guard you don't have to be smart all the time .. I've got a mind full of blanks.

  • If I ever become famous for my singing, I want to sing with Julian. He would totally outshine me, but I would be so* happy.

  • who's the chick in the music video ;)

  • Amazing amazing Julian....

  • has anyone realized that JC stands for Jesus Christ and Julian Casablancas. i don't want to offend any religious people.

  • @rudiejudie no, it only stands for Julian Casablancas

  • Shut up you hipster elitist douchebags. Why does it matter how people found out about Julian Casablancas? Aren't we all fans? I first saw him in boombox, and I am now a massive fan of him and the Strokes, and own all of their music. I'm sorry I'm not good enough to be a fan of his just because I was never exposed to his music beforehand. Get over yourselves, because next time you are introduced to an artist I have loved for years I will not say a word. The more the merrier.

  • @xpledgeturnprestigex well said! you pegged it with "hipster elitist douchebags" lolol

  • @brandonpeterson40 Haha thanks :) the two top comments just really annoyed me. When something bugs me I can't be stopped lol

  • @xpledgeturnprestigex OH MY GOD exactly. you put everything I've ever thought about the subject into words! :D

  • @lindseyscrazyhouse I'm glad you agree :D just needed a bit of a vent, sometimes I end up rambling but this one seems to have resonated with at least 32 other people so I call that a success haha

  • @xpledgeturnprestigex Fuck Yeah, You are the man.

  • @DuCatiProDuctionz Thanks! But technically I am 'the woman' haha

  • @xpledgeturnprestigex I don't think it's that people who knew Casablancas' work before hearing "Boombox" dislike people who only heard about after (though some might, I guess). It's just that, The Strokes are an extremely popular and successful band. It seems as incongruous that someone would be introduced to Julian Casablancas through "Boombox" as it would be for someone to be introduced to Lady Gaga through "The Golden Rule."

  • @xzigzag023x which I'm totally going to watch again, because it's hilarious.

  • @xzigzag023x maybe you are saying this because you have indeed known about the strokes for a long time? I had obviously heard about the strokes, but didn't listen to their music and certainly didn't know the name of their lead singer. I'm sure there are some well known bands for which the same rule applies to you? Lady Gaga is also one of the most famous female singers today, there is no argument that anyone who hasn't heard of her has been living under a rock.

  • @xpledgeturnprestigex True enough, I suppose. It's often the case that a fan knows about a band and its music but doesn't know every individual member's name. And it's not like it's a bad thing that people are being introduced to Julian Casablancas through The Lonely Island. "Boombox" is one of my favorite songs they've made (though I like "Jack Sparrow" a bit more).

  • @xzigzag023x sorry, i reread my comments and I didn't mean to come across that way- I'm glad you see where I'm coming from- I just wish the whole 'who knew about Julian Casablancas before Lonely Island' argument would go away. And yes, Jack Sparrow and The Golden Rule are brilliant too.

  • @xzigzag023x I'm sorry if it seems incongruous to you, but... shock horror, yes, I was actually made aware of Julian Casablancas and the strokes by a song called 'Boombox', and I am not the only one. Sorry that this is so hard for you to wrap your head around, but I will admit that my knowledge of every single successful band does not reach very far.

  • @xpledgeturnprestigex If you say so.

  • @xzigzag023x Well, 38 other people seem to agree with me, so maybe you could track them down and ask them how it is possible that they weren't fans of the strokes before they saw 'boombox' because you seem to like trolling :)

  • @xpledgeturnprestigex Whatever, man.

  • @xpledgeturnprestigex you maybe are 38 but u know how many kids, teens and old people play rock band and guitar hero, well i quite sure that all that people know how The strokes are u know why because reptilia, reptilia is the most play song ever in this 2 games, and the anwser is easy why dont you knew something about the strokes because u r a ignorant that im sure only listen justin beaber

  • @yoellunabsp@yoellunabsp I can tell english isn't your first language because none of what you wrote really made sense. I never said how old I am, and I cannot stand Justin Bieber. I wasn't aware that reptilia is on guitar hero because I don't play guitar hero. I'm sure you're right that lots of people discover music through guitar hero and things like that. It's not a bad thing though.

  • @xpledgeturnprestigex

    You make me want to cry from happiness O3O

    Preach this to more people on the youtubes friend, speak and be heard!!!!

    P.S.

    I thought Boombox was some good shit, and also found the Strokes and Julian from there. Isn't that sort of the point though? I mean, collabs are really good at twice the advertising and viewers while also gaining new fans and giving the older ones a new song.

  • @skoolfailures Haha boombox is rad. I know every word. I hate self-righteous douchebaggery, so I'm glad you agree with my little rant :)

  • @xpledgeturnprestigex Amen to that!!! =]XOXO

  • @xpledgeturnprestigex Your right who gives a fuck how somone found it? Thats also why good music these days is inaccessable for everyone because people make out like it belongs to them thus giving lady ga ga and shit like that for normal people.

  • What does the girl say to him? I couldn't understand what she was saying.

  • @TheDottman56 call me

  • @TOOL1975

    oooooooooooooooooo

  • It's the same dimension of 12:51 :D

  • my favorite music video ever!! the composition, the editing,costumes ...and Julian himself... everything is just perfect... I still watch the MV every now and then, and never got bored :D

  • this song would go great if it's mashed up with the human league's "don't you want me". the tune is so similar.

  • Comment removed

  • who gives a shit what led you here just be happy he made this pimpin music and be happy for that

  • OMG i just realised my hair is JUST like his and every body i know says im handsom ... i think its the hair bcause he and me look pretty kool ;D
