  • Amazing tune, theyre superb live. Search "Likely Lads - Not For Me" for a decent new indie band.

  • One of the best live songs ever sung for my money is this. Bang on the fucking money.

    Loving Angles too.

    #strokesrock

  • At 2:45 the drummer reminded me of Animal from The Muppets

  • and if you guys are into these...There's an up and coming English band from Chesterfield (near Sheffield) called the Educatables! I think they're worth a look! :-) you can find them on facebook! (and no, Im not a promoter...just a mega fan! lol)

  • um...anyone else see a world map?...

  • @sibzism Yeah - it's subliminal.

    

  • Notice the break in rhythm guitar at about 2:22 as Albert stops to put the drum mike back from where he knocked it. : )

  • OMG subliminal message at 2.53 and other parts now i might go listen to someday by the strokes... thumbs up if you didn't see it at first (idk im paranoid) :)

  • I think that it's highly likely that Julian is pissed in this video :L

  • seen these at leeds festival, i was a withered mess but was still amazing.

  • I wish I was that jaded...

  • TOP TUNE

  • Thumbs up if you knew Julian before "Boombox"..

  • @93sunbeam that is ridiculous

  • Anybody now were to get the joe camel T jules is wearin realy want one ?

  • @BigDuke921 Hot Topic. It's the shop where you can buy all your anti-capitalist, non-mainstream, ironically mainstream and capitalist merchandise. Don't forget to buy a Che Guevara shirt while your there. ANARCHYYYYY!!!!

  • The singer is great but looks like he hasn't washed for six months.

  • Tune!, especially that drum beat at the start :)

  • i love this because its a live recording for a video. aces

  • Seriously gooOd live!

  • perfect pop song. right here. i love it

    check out THE LOW SUNS , they re a super cool new brit group i ve found, i want recognition for finding them !!! haha

  • @roshambo1234567 its not pop wtf.

  • @edwarde22 YO , its pop in the original sense, as in popular. ( you re right i gotta stop calling stuff pop!)

  • @roshambo1234567 well done on finding them but they're not british, not pop and this song came out 10 years ago :)

  • @stonerose86 sorry , i meant The Low Suns are a new british band that ive found. and that Last Nite is a perfect pop song in the original sense of popular song. song writing just doesnt get much better, thats all im saying. ( i need to write more clearly in the future, haha)

  • @roshambo1234567 it's rock'n'roll lol :D

  • Does anyone else notice random clips of stuff being put in? Or is it just me...

  • Does anyone else notice random clips of stuff being put in? Or is it just me...

  • funny cause he's drunk :')

    

  • DONT YOU FUCKING DARE!! try n subliminal message meh 1:26.... Nerd..

  • Great band, they should be English!!!

  • The Strokes were fucking boss at Leeds.

  • The words pissed as a fart spring to mind :o)

  • @dudduk The words "its a video and therefore stage-managed" spring to mind. Its not live.

  • lol at 1:37

  • lol for albert :D

  • I really, really fancy Julian.

  • Love Love!

  • Space ships wont understand this song.

  • Just ordered the black version of Albert's strap - long live the mothafuckin' strokes!

  • I'm a straight male and I can't decide if I wanna be Julian or be with Julian

  • Tom Petty "American Girl".

    No one has any original ideas anymore.

  • Thats such an old school subliminal message

  • Legendary....

  • why did he push him at 1:35 ???????????????

  • @MrDoughnutProduction I have only just noticed this! obviously didn't mean anything if they're still together now;)

  • @MrDoughnutProduction it's kind of their style to play around on stage, it doesn't really mean anything lol

  • fabrizio moretti is amazing

  • Live!

  • Look at that. Thats what being a drummer is about, a four piece kit, ride cymbal and a hi-hat, none of this monstrosity of adrum-kit with useless gadgets.

  • I know this for sure, I'm gonna shit on your floor..

  • Pause at 1:26, I don't think this is subliminal messaging... but what the hell lol?

  • 1:02 The microphone stand throwing! He does the exact same throw in the Under Cover of Darkness video! I just realised!

  • i love this video just because julian won't stop bumping into people hahaha

  • 2:52 wtf?

  • LEEDS!

  • this guy really likes throwing mic stands

  • 2:01 BROMANCE

  • This song never gets old ... obviously. Julian is a legend, he should get wayyyyy more credit than what he does!

  • so so sexy

  • one of my favourite songs of all time

  • what is with that flashing of the noughts and crosses at 1:26

  • 1:36 Albert must have been thinking 'what a prick'. but he's tolerating him as if he's julian's carer or something haha. great song though. best album of the 'noughties'

  • fuck me the strokes used to be amazing

  • Still are bro!

  • Do you guys ever wonder if Albert/Nick get annoyed when Julian stumbles into them?

  • I wish they didn't edit out the crashing sound of the mic stand lmfao.

  • If you like The Strokes, you'll probably like White Collar Crimes - whitecollarcrimes.bandcamp.com :) x

  • If you like this you might like video by up and coming British band...Educatables - Tiao Cruz Cover (Dynamite/Break Your Heart)

  • I just came :P

  • I was standing with my brother a T in the Park. He said it's either Beyonce or The Strokes. I said I wanted to see a full band play live rather than a 'performer' so we went to see The Strokes. I never liked them before the gig, but now I'm obsessed with them!

  • Can't wait to see these in august.

  • If you like these you'll love this video from new British Indie/Rock band - "Educatables - One Song Many Drums!"

  • I love how Julian's zoned out for the first 10 secs he 's singing lol can't do nuttin but love him. ;D

  • secret pictures/subliminal messages: 1:25 2:21 2:52 and theres supposed to be 2 more

  • @theoriginalmosher66 those are not subliminal messages. they are bits of The Strokes other music videos. 'Reptilia', 'Hard to Explain', just to name the few "subliminal" messages which you saw in this vid... =_='

  • @WNW7044 maybe advertising there other songs is the subliminal message?

    *eerie music* *Gasps*

  • If you like this you love "Educatables 6 Instruments 6 Hands!"

  • @ARRANMORGAN im not like most 17 year olds i like to be outside working with some decent music not sat infront of a computer !!!!

  • can i ask one question when was this song relesed for the first time ? im only 17 cn't say that i remember but i really really love the song :P

  • @edwardshiels1 As a 17 year old things like Google or Wikipedia should be second nature. No, you can't ask. Find out for yourself.

  • look at 3:09 albert throw his guitar pick

  • Almost 5 Million views - I could have sworn I watched it at least that many times already....

  • real lead singers stumble into their guitarists every now and then =D

  • If you like this you'll love this video from new British band "Educatables - One Guitar Six Hands!"

  • ..whats with 1:25 ??

  • 362 felt left out  last night

  • look at the video properly and u can see at 00:18 that Albert plays a guitar with a cigarette somehow stuck on the strings, and there's smoke coming out

  • @taiklalatboy yeah it's wedged between the strings and the headstock, frusciante used to do that a lot too.. also there's this weird flashing image of a game of noughts and crosses at 1:26 lol

  • 363 people are deaf and are mad because they cannot hear the pure angelic sound coming from their computer

  • His voice is so unbelieveably sexy :3

    Still love Gee better, but this guy's in the top ten ;)

  • ha i think its fucking amazing that everything's Julians crashing into people and everything's falling down but they still sound fucking great!!!

  • WHEN THE FUCK ARE YOU GUYS COMING TO TORONTO?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

  • how the fuck could you dislike this?

    there should be a love button!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • l love listening to this, thats why it's in my playlist. ;D

  • Comment removed

  • @thecroftone How many times have I seen you recommend that band as a videos top comment ? You got yourself a little promotional conspiracy , ay? Got yourself a little posse always at the ready to like that comment wherever you leave it ?

  • @thecroftone Yeah, Last night, What he said.  :)

  • Man,they just dont give a damn bout anything!!!! All they wanna do is play good music..

  • throws his pick at 3:09 ha. : )

  • If you like The Strokes, check out Jacques by Party Snobs, hope you like it :).

  • the reason julian throws the mic stand across stand is coz one of their first gigs they done he threw it and got told off and the sound guy said "do it again and ill vut u off" so.... he threw it again and the dude cut him off. think hes throwing in this video to say to that sound guy, fuck u, i do wat i want now .....

  • @FootballingGenus or maybe he is just throwing it for fun.

  • I've watched this vid countless times, but today is the first time I've noticed Albert's cig on the head of his guitar at the beginning, so cool...

  • Do the Strokes remind anyone else of the Ramones?

    great music

  • @buddyholly1958 remind me the ramones r shit

  • The Strokes bought back Rock 'n' Roll, and it's proper Rock. It sickens me that watered down bands like Kings of Leon and Nickleback get all the credit. This is what bought back rock, Julian Casablancas is genius.

  • @ImmaRanterBanter This should be bigger than Kings of Leon and Nickelback, it's indie music but without being shit, cause a lot of indie to me seems to have nothing to it, but this isn't too shabby.

  • @ImmaRanterBanter You think KoL are watered down? KoL make far more complicated music than the Strokes who are essentially an Indi-rock band because their music is so simple, and there are plenty of flaws with the band. The lyrics are forgetfull and lack a certain direction whilst also being overly repetitive. Moretti is also an awful drummer, I mean one of the worst, and Fraiture lacks any sort of originality. The Strokes are an ok band but you can't compare them to KoL listen to trani and see.

  • @Incubus941 Complicated doesn't mean better. I listened to some KoL, and when I could understand what he was even saying, it's not superior to this. The problem with arguing about this is that it all depends on whose listening.

  • @ScabiousGarde I'm not saying that that's why I love people like Neil Young I was counter-acting the argument of ImmaRanterBanter. It doesn't depend on who's listening to that extent. You can't argue that the Beatles were one of the best rock bands ever, I don't like their music but I'll settle that they are. Besides, it's called vocalisation, and Caleb has an amazing voice. I can understand everything he says but I can't understand a fucking word Julian does. So yes, it's who's listening.

  • @Incubus941 Incubus are an awesome band. Nice name.

  • @Incubus941 It seems like that invalidete's too many arguments, including your's.

  • @ImmaRanterBanter ah now, come on, Kings of leon ain't that bad, the strokes still yet to do a big hit since 06 man !!!!!!!!!

  • @ImmaRanterBanter best fuking comment i'v read ever!

  • @ImmaRanterBanter kings of leon used to be good, they turned bad when you could understand their lyrics

  • @theLEWISization sad but true. Used to be a huge KOL fan aswell. I can't stand them now

  • @theLEWISization haha Caleb's lyrics are some of the best rock lyrics being written nowadays.

  • @theLEWISization ay?? yaw dow get it dow ya dow ; )

  • @theLEWISization lol- they are still churning out quite a few good songs though!

  • @achmedda3rd but none of which are as good as any song off aha shake heartbrake

  • @theLEWISization yeh thats too true!

  • @ImmaRanterBanter Even since "Is this it" I think the Strokes have watered down a great deal since

  • @ImmaRanterBanter What? Nickelback don't get any credit anyway. Partly cos they're the worst ever.

  • @ImmaRanterBanter Kings of Leon and Nickleback are far from watered down, admittadly Kings of Leon have a few questionable songs, but the majority of their songs are proper rock songs, and as for Nickleback, listen to The Dark Horse album in its entirity and I promise you'll change your mind because you obviously haven't listened to it if you're saying this

  • @dbleXdiamand Thank fuck some one who knows what they're talking about.

  • @Incubus941 Cheers man

  • @dbleXdiamand i love kol but nickelback really?

  • @1324hh Ignore the songs their singles, listen to the songs that they didn't big up, they're the good ones, just search the dark horse album on here and trust me you won't be disappointed by it

  • @dbleXdiamand yeah i really like shakin hands now that i listen to it

  • @ImmaRanterBanter too rite .. classic..

  • so wish i could sing this!

  • ahaha i love how julian just leisurely strolls on to the set.

  • at 2 : 31 i swear he says kesha

  • @1324hh Oh yeah haha...mind you, kesha's music is pathetic :/

  • Wow i love this song. Never knew who sang it though!

  • Ey up, forgot how much i like this song

    If you got a spare minute were an band from Yorkshire trying to get our tunes out there so if you get chance can you check out our channel and tell us what you think it will be muchly appreciated

    ta x

  • They spelt night wrong...Come on...Not on...

  • @Abigspliffta it's deliberate

  • YOUR NAN HAS AIDS XXXXXXX

  • 1:25 what does the clip mean?!

  • @lilliam3690 its x's & o's

  • @lilliam3690 its a clip from a film that called war games

  • @lilliam3690 its a clip from a film called war games

  • I remembering watching this on Kerrang all the time; those were the good days! Thumbs if you're the same!

  • @LikelyLadsBand Maybe make your songs better and let them do the work instead of getting people to do the work your music should be doing...Fuck sake!

  • @LikelyLadsBand Don't give up hope lads, The Strokes were ignored, no one in NY was interested it took Rough Trade from the UK to show an interest. The Strokes were playing to tiny crowds and if I remember correctly in Hotels and resteraunts. But this has to be one of the greatest songs of all time, so keep dreaming and one day...........

  • The first time I heard this I thought my ears were having sex with my brain.

  • @DetectiveDeckard

    anyone who "thumbed down" your comment was clearly jealous that they didn't think of it first.

  • @Lougy93 True dat :)

  • @DetectiveDeckard Imagine the babies!

  • Lol. Julians badass in this video

  • 1:05 - Javelin

  • Seriously, does Julian Casablancas EVER comb his hair? :P

  • @justinecunanan Doesn't need to...Messy hair always looks awesome :D

  • 1:38 hahahaha

  • @jaktra

    Few people notice that. It's absolutely hilarious, the look on Albert's face.

  • @hazuinf HAHAHAHAH YES LMAO

  • 'The Mischiefs - Don't go to work' is a terrible tune so stop spamming youtube with it!

  • Please watch my Strokes cover!!

    Dom

  • love the fact the drum mics fall over 2:15 and their failed attempts to get them backkk :D also that he trys to play even harder to compensatee ;) 2:43

  • @94jazi :D Yeah at 2:22 Albert actually seemed to stop playing to pick up the mic he bumped into only for it and all the other to fall down. Also Fab actually hit one of the mics with his drum stick at 2:31. At least it proves it's live and not one of those shitty videos where the band is pretending to play. And it's hilarious.

  • like if your saw the naughts and crosses ;)

  • @MrLFCJack Like?
