the strokes - hard to explain (live at oxegen)

[jdcrofton]

Im seein these at oxegen this year WWOOOOOO .... oh and Benicassim too fukin yew

[paulrobertsonefc]

Milburn and the Strokes talking together...WOAH!

[favre4ever1995]

Is that Noel Gallagher at 0:17?

[DigsysBird]

@favre4ever1995  clearly NOT

[cokemule22]

@favre4ever1995 no its one of the arctic monkeys

[TJ99881]

The Strokes are better than most things.

[ismaelocodf]

i just love it when Julian says CHA CHA at 3:49

[pdevine45]

yea it was milburn and arctic monkeys at the side of the stage. arctic monkeys had played right before the strokes on the same stage and milburn played later that night on the new band tent. julian was giving loadsa shout outs to arctic monkeys in between songs, think it was the first time the strokes had seen them live.

[digidawg111]

@pdevine45 bro Milburn is my last name!

[linktheaustin]

best song ever

[sesshomaru322]

lol I love how he messes up the start of the chorus at 2:16 "I say the..first bus" but still makes it work.

[jhova187]

have you noticed at 3:30 he says "raised in carolina.... this bitch says im not like that"

[sesshomaru322]

Yeah, I love how Julian changes the lyrics in live performances.

[crayzeejen]

[RyanSupaStar]

These guyz shood be the biggest rock band in the world not the jonas bros

[Caspernil]

hey man, i don't get pricks like you, okay.. bands like the strokes and newer bands like Venus in Furs and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club are doing music justice.

what have you done apart from waste my time and yours?

go listen to "she killed the Fly" bitch.

owned comes to mind :D

[squirehorse]

you obviously havent got much of a clue of music. iv got tonnes of c.ds stretcing back to the 40's but the strokes are a band that i keep coming back to. i dont know why but it feels good

[thepin967]

[peacenlove247]

hahahaha....

[bencc93]

the strokes ARE the best band since 2000

[harrissabrina]

I just love them too much

[hendrixvoodoo]

Classic performance. I actually prefer this over the record version, just has a little more grit to it.

[lobis19]

yeah! Amazing!

i want to be Irish

[squirehorse]

im irish and i cant believe i didnt go to oxegen that year. it probably made sense at the time

[muhdapez]

That is milburn!They're not fans.They're an awesome band and so is the strokes :)

[PortugalTheAccount]

Seeing as how they were there to see the Strokes.

[carlispot]

[SWEETTOOHT]

[PortugalTheAccount]

[PortugalTheAccount]

[stephenouve]

[Mellon7787]

I thought that too man!

[Strokyyy1]

one of the best live version evvvvvvvvvvver , jesus fuck i love the strokes

[ayazyam]

I wish that every new generation got amnesia and forgot all the previous stuff, because I get sick of hearing comparisons with bands that are over and done with and don't affect us except in a stupid nostalgic way. Sure it is great to admire that music, but whatever is happening now should be more important to us if for no other reason than because we have the ability to affect it.

[squirehorse]

damn right

[returnofthebmonkey]

you can't really say if there was no beatles there wud be no music..i mean not sayin that the beatles r shite or anyhting..they're top like..but yehh..Uppa strokes + beatles

[jhonreef]

despues de nirvana  the strokes los segundo salvadores del rock

[strokesjunkie]

this is mind blowing

[l2moua]

cool

[pillonsin]

beatles or strokes??

strokes.

[smileyNY]

brave statement man...

im only young so im not familiar wit the beatles stuff...strokes are a class act tho...

[Gibberish1983]

if it werent for the Beatles there would be NO strokes :)

[pillonsin]

strokes would be cooler. if there was no beatles

[kawaii50]

from the start it's brilliant. when julian screams "was an honest man"...it kills me! they are the best live.

[giobarbie]

[whirlwindgod]

im pretty sure its kasabian hes talking to.i remember that performance like it was yesterday i was right up the front and everything!

[diekontrolleure]

[PoutLady]

MY HEROES<3

[periloushomous]

there's only 3 comments? when will they reform back huh?

[StrokesChiliPepper]

reform back?they never broke up.julian confirmed a fourth album and albert wants to finish a 2nd solo album before they start recodring again.

[periloushomous]

i didnt't say they broke up, didn't i?

[followillthestrokes]

that sucks cuz alberts stuff doesnt compare to their stuff together.

[mw0305]

i seriously think the strokes are the best band. julian's voice is so awesome!

[fc3chris]

one of the best live versions i've ever seen of this song. the guys look excited to perform!
