Julian Casablancas - Left & Right in the Dark

[aprilsonnier]

and its not gonna taaaaaaaake aaaaaaal day longgggg. He sounds just like this live. go jules <3

[The2beren]

a boombox can change music style

[XxxxxxLinaxxxxxX]

@The2beren Julian can change lives.

[OppaOppaNuna]

@XxxxxxLinaxxxxxX Well said.

[Lollie1176037]

hey i hate the 11 people who disliked this only we understand his way of music n stuff

[metallica4life101]

Look at all the newbies D:

[diekontrolleure]

@NinjaIChooseYou go kill yourself bitch i found out about the strokes before they released their first recors

[Lollie1176037]

he can write that! as in thats design he did by hand! fricking amazing!

[XxxxxxLinaxxxxxX]

Oh shit the end scared me out so hard.

[XxxxxxLinaxxxxxX]

I love how Julian is 33 now and he still doesn't forget how being a kid feels like.

[b0bings0n]

@TheGreatHsilgne boombox introudced me to

[Mahuano001]

valensi write this song with jules thats why sound so fucking cool , and soun just like valensi's guitar

[diekontrolleure]

@Mahuano001 for real? where did you read that?

[philippfuelb]

People look up the Strokes. He is the lead singer for them, and more or less the mastermind behind their work. If you like this i'm sure you'll like The Strokes.

[criticpunk2036]

Oh my god, I heard about them form Boombox too. Then I started listening to the strokes and they are officially the best band in this decade!

[MrStrictlyBodacious]

Le penis!

[TheAmbushHunter]

this sounds like a sonic level lol...luv it

[khanie008]

i dont think i ever saw a shorter dislike bar than this one...

[Didnotthinkthisthrou]

I don't get why there is even a dislike button. wouldn't people who like this song listen to it? I wouldn't waste my time to go and listen to a song i don't like and "dislike" it

[Niqoleh]

And it's not gonna taaaake aaal daay loong

[Niqoleh]

I looove this sooong (:

[SpiderChalkeyWhitey]

There are parts of this, like the verses that remind me of Ashes to Ashes by Bowie.

[Atolon23]

i would dislike this video cuz i dont like julian casablancas but i know all of u peope will critisize me so i wont but in my opinion hes got a good singing voice but his music isnt that good if he used his voice in a diffrent way like he used it in boombox then id listen to him all the time but hip hop aint his music sorry to all the julian casablancas fans and to julian casablancas but thats my opnion and im sorry

[kdruble]

@Atolon23 Don't worry about it. It's cool. You explained yourself rather than just saying he sucked.

[MrStrictlyBodacious]

@kdruble SHUT IT.

[ooalexblueoo]

@Atolon23 I dont think its hip hop though. So I personally think his voice fits in this song, thats my opinion and im sorry

[klashkat]

@Atolon23 Hip hop?!?!?! lol I believe this music would be classified as alternative... but w.e no hard feelings

[pinkpoodleajn]

@Atolon23 lol hip hop. i hope you're joking

[ILoveMyDogsAss]

does anyone else think fear of sleep is the opposite of this song? lol

[KiraNedeljkovic]

he is a very good singer but he just doesn't have any good songs...

[KiraNedeljkovic]

@ThinCrustPizza67 good lyrics is not what makes good songs

for example this music is almost like something you get when playing super mario

He has a voice for rock.

[BooJoMan]

@KiraNedeljkovic i think this album was a sort of experiment for him. He knew he was going back to the strokes, so i suppose he wanted to try something different himself while he could. I quite like this song. Its not as good as a strokes song, but then again its not really supposed to be.

[nickwallen21]

most people just look for a catchy beat and chorus, thats why the strokes in my opinion were so successful . his solo work rocks just as hard, i just dont think all of you obsessive casablancas fans have opened your mind to a new age of music.

[Charlene68100]

Julian sells sexy and doesn't really give a damn,,wake upwakeupwakeupwakeup!!

[pineapplejuice1992]

the enddddd, omg! 

[CrumpetsProducktions]

Boom box is the only song that i like where julian sings to be honest :l they dont sound the same idk but this one is okay acually.

[1324hh]

@CrumpetsProducktions have you HEARD the strokes . ok julian does scream but thats no BAD thing!

[CrumpetsProducktions]

@1324hh No its not him, he's a great singer in Boom box so obivously he can do it here i think its the music itself or the way the lyrics are written that his voice is somewhat off :/ but in this song its good i like it but in others ehhhhhhh :S

[1324hh]

@CrumpetsProducktions so maybe the screaming is abit much but (dont get me wrong ilove his solo album)

bu cumon he suits thestrokes much better

[CrumpetsProducktions]

@1324hh Oh no no no, I tottaly agree, he is very talented. It's just that in some of his songs it doesnt seem like it :/

[1324hh]

@CrumpetsProducktions its just adifferent genre of music that maybe u dont like but i really like it but thats just my opinion

[CrumpetsProducktions]

@1324hh Yea, you might be right.

[youtaughtmehowtolive]

wake up wake up wake up wake up wake up wake up etc.

[aapundong2]

are you guys fighting for "who is the best fan criteria"? ...... wow, (what kind of an issue)

[1313MickMars1313]

Funny how the comments on here now are identical to the ones 8 months ago... YouTube is the only place that never grows up. *sigh*

[canola86]

@1313MickMars1313 u know whats funny? funny how u don't realise thats because hundreds of new people keep watching the video. It means youtube is GROWING u dumbass!

[ivo35]

great song, great playlist

[FYROM100]

WHAT THE FUCK IS BOOMBOX?!

[MrBKscrandom7]

@FYROM100 its a song by lonely island that features julian, its a pretty sick song, haha check it out but beware for the end...just disturbing..

[johnlordly]

He might seriously be my favorite male vocalist of all time.

[twittercom]

if you knew him from Boombox, i pity you :)

[Gykw17]

@twittercom still, i'm happy i found him :)

[twittercom]

@twittercom that's good, but CMON MAN THE STROKES

[CrazedTacoEater852]

i like jules before even MYSELF knew who he was

[aecastel]

Simplemente alucinante!!!

Grande Jules!!

[FelicityDusk]

EARGASM <3

[TheBryanDanielson]

Bitches don't know about the Strokes!

[Avarwvs]

1:41-1:50 would make an awesome sound for an alarm clock...

[Brittanybaby10]

@Avarwvs that is my alarm clock sound ;) haha

[AashiquiDevi]

@Avarwvs true that! :D

[Xenavreth]

I sort of feel bad I heard of him from Boombox, but HOLY FUCKING JESUS he is a GOD!

[ninjax261]

haha i heard of julian casablancas because of boombox, but hes so damn good.

[DarkForgottenUchiha]

I heard of julian from the strokes..? oh wait i am the only one who found him that way?

[jsgc13]

@DarkForgottenUchiha no, you are not the only one, calm down...

[DarkForgottenUchiha]

@jsgc13 okay , sorry don't get a big dick.

[jsgc13]

@DarkForgottenUchiha haha

[Allureist]

It pains me that it seems most of you people don't know that Julian is the lead singer of The Strokes.

JULIAN IS THE LEAD SINGER OF THE STROKES FUCKERS.

[Allureist]

I want Julian to release another solo album badly, but I want the Strokes to keep on putting out albums as much as possible. How would that work out?

Oh and by the way everyone shut the fuck up.

[YouKnowItsMatt]

If Youtube didnt have comments, the majority of internet arguments would cease to exist.

[TheGreatHsilgne]

So what if Boombox introduced me to Julian. I kept listening to him because he was really good in that song. He's really good in this song and his whole Phrazes for the Young album. The Lonely Island is funny and I don't regret that they introduced me to talent like this.

[MrStrictlyBodacious]

@TheGreatHsilgne UR A CUNT

[ThinCrustPizza67]

who gives a fuck when you started liking him...

as long as more people realize his brilliance that's all that matters...

none of you own or wrote his music...HE DID.

Julian Casablancas is one of my music heroes...I love The Strokes and always will...much respect to the great music.

[MusicMan44144]

easily could be a strokes song!!

[MightyBass101]

i liked him after boombox bitches 

[casablanca55555]

Everyone's battling their boiled goose

But Julian's taken the cake...

[gettinitfosho]

One word: BOILED GOOSE!

[PhantomPlanet100]

Julian is seriously one hell of a new wave solo artist :D

[worldofhollie]

i wish he'd used this on a strokes album, so he could play it live when i see them! i adore this song!!

[NeonTiger24]

i love his singing, its so unpredictable... the lyrics and the way he says them. you know how sometimes you can predict lyrics before theyre sang without even knowing the song? not with julian, hes just amazing, isnt he?

[SENSESxXxFAIL]

this is so far from my kinda music but i love it :D

[TheJordanHorne]

You're all retarded. You don't hear of Julian, he hears of you.....

[Ilovefoodandmusic]

Sweet song! :D



[Jamesulchip]

@72wackiemackie life, ey? =(

[par0dy101]

im honest i didnt know about him till boombox but hes still awesome

[gmbcoolgirl]

this songs sounds really familiar i think i´ve heard it before

but maybe i dint notice it was from julian

[DaveeeSAB]

@gmbcoolgirl Biz Markie - Just A Friend

same intro with this song exept a bit faster and with a higher pitch

[clow539]

why the hell do you guys think he did boombox? to advertise his own work! dumbasses!

[MrScallawag]

I liked Julian even before he was born!! [hipster rage /off/]

[MichaelIskander95]

you must get nobs that dislike videos for the sake of it cause this song is absolutely amazing!

[IShudBeStudying]

This song brings to mind a most spectacular summer's day... With fireworks.... And a Ferrari convertible which would let the wind blow through my hair as I zoom down the highway at a 110mi/hour on my way to a music festival....Surrounded by my best friends and pizza... :D <-- My face every time "Left and Right In The Dark" begins playing.

[MichaelIskander95]

his voice is like a combination of Fergie and Jesus

[IShudBeStudying]

@MichaelIskander95 Jesus must have sounded GREAT.

[ton4sen]

boombox sucks!! this is his REAL music

[adiirai]

my alarm every morning.. julian singing WAKE UP! :) <3

[CherubHorse]

I heard him from boombox. I immediately LOVED HIS VOICE!!! I can't believe I hadn't heard of him before that!!! Julian is amazing!

[melodyw386]

I doubt Julian actually cares which one of you knew him first, as long as his fan base continues to grow shouldn't we all be happy for him?

Now can we get back to actually listening to the song rather than act like little kids?

[mattmiester1]

what the fuck is boombox?

[BlueberryGurrl]

@mattmiester1 a beastly song. although the ending of it sucks.

[GuinTheKimmiDoll]

Please have your fag fights somewhere else. Julian is the best and that's that.

[IShudBeStudying]

@GuinTheKimmiDoll Ha ha! "Fag fights." First time I've heard that one! XD

[mememango2244]

I liked him before boombox. But it doesn't matter. if we all like him why does it matter when we started liking him or who likes him more? Why can't we just enjoy the music and shut up? Seriously.

[JayBrooksy]

@mememango2244 if it doesnt matter, why did u include the "I liked him before boommbox" part.......

[Metallica158]

meh, seems I only like Boombox, though, thats not the reason Im listening to this <_< brother thought id like this guy, not so much really

back to Cudi

[WTFitsAmuffin]

i heard of him from boombox and now have all his music SUCK MY DICK HIPSTERS

[karinajonas12]

guys, really it doesn't matter who heard of him first, before or after boombox. what matters is that we all got here somehow and are listening to THIS AMAZING PIECES OF MUSIC instead of the really crappy music many kids unfortunately listen to nowadays. it doens't matter if we're older or younger, "hipsters" or nonhipsters (whatever that is)....let's all just agree on one thing: JULIAN IS FUCKING AWESOME!

[iloverocknroll47]

that breathing thing he does at 0:22 is really hot hahaha

[pildskadden]

Hey, I don't even know what Boombox is!! reason why I stumbled upon JC was the dog on the cover of his album. Pathetic, eh? I think I really like the music, though !!

[cobainbullet182]

people who dont know julian from the strokes, but only from boombox. i wont make fun of you. but REALLY!?!?!?

go listen to the strokes. now.

i command you....

[IAreFauxReal]

Lol@boomboxfags

[xXsexiidaisylovexX]

[Iruparazzo]

[MissRandom72]

JULIAN :D i really envy your wife. to know she has to keep you forever :'(

[BL4CKR4BB1T8D]

"true fans aren't there since the beginning. They're there till the very end."

[mohdsatu89]

[rodrigopacheco12]

@BL4CKR4BB1T8D well said

[BbonersBusyBuisness]

[Redbirdgirl88]

[JobrosSelG]

Lo amo, es el mejor.

[abedeseba]

[xclr8sam]

PEOPLE, UR SO STUPID!! WHY R Y FIGHTING ABOUT WHERE U SAW IT FRIST?? GOD, ALL OF US LOVE HIM SO THATS GOOD! DAMN!!

[SageExtreme]

I first heard him sing the day his mom gave birth to him.

[Karinekrenn]

Could his songs get any better ? Seriously ?

[xJohnnyZombiex]

@Karinekrenn ...nope...

[magicplace420]

dude this guy made me fall in love with him in less than 10 mintutes. i never knew he went solo after the strokes! :O

[MrJoe8charles]

Tits!!!

[kayteeclark]

i dare anyone to listen to this and not feel happy and upbeat after listening...

[judutchinski]

fuck yea!!!! balls out!

[legionpeep]

(puts on hipster glasses) I liked Julian before boombox!!!!!

[TheaEpifanio]

@legionpeep

Sir. I may be in love with you.

[hanneesh]

That descending scale type thing on the chorus hits HARD. AWesOMeNEsS!!!

[stevestime]

boombox brot me here now i absaloutly lov JULIAN CASABLACAS.y is hes voice so contashis any1 whos sen boombox lovs JULIAN CASABLACAS.im just soooooo happy i found this guy.

[ugnip18]

sorry, i'm from England, i was just curious what is boombox?

[booboobitxch666]

@ugnip18 look it up Lonelyisland boombox feat Julian Casablancas

[pildskadden]

@ugnip18 I'm asking the same (being from Denmark, have no idea what Boombox is)

[justinecunanan]

This is my most favorite song from his album. I got addicted to it.

[DazzleMeWithFashion1]

Amazing and Legendary Julian casablancas

[Janewt00]

Julian Casablancas = Amazing. !

< 3

[gawain20]

this song reminds me of a phil collins song not sure why

[Sindaj]

i new of julian before boombox but i didnt really know, like i heard his music and i liked them but i never took the time to look him up until boom box then i realized i recognized his songs and fell in love.

[turtlegurl900]

I have always been a Lonely Island fan and when I heard Boombox, I fell in love with the song. I wondered who the singer was and looked into Julian Casablancas. After a few hours of listening to him music, I absolutley fell in LOVE with him and his voice<3 I think this song is amazing and I hope he makes more songs like this. All of his music is phenomenal and I also love him as a person. Believe me, you dont know how happy I was when I found him(: I LOVE YOU JULIAN CASABLANCAS! <3

[kolbyguy]

love this one

[musiclives1000]

love his voice

[Zajuju]

I must say, everyone who is saying it is sad if Julian was first heard in Boombox truly needs a reality check.

[reallysorry390]

@Zajuju

I completely agree.

[climbbot]

jesus boombox was a joke. it is very fucking sad if that is the first time you have heard him.

[TearsofWolves]

@climbbot Bullshit. If you like someone, you like someone. It doesn't matter how you found out about him. Julian's voice was incredible in Boombox.

[AbbyMarie87]

@climbbot Hipster alert.

[isaaxd91]

@climbbot I do not know how to feel dude. I mean, I want the talented people to never stop doing music; on the other side, I do not want people to know about them. If that is a 'hipster' way of thinking I do not give a shit. What I do not know is if they earn enough money to keep doing what they like and what we like, underground music full of talent.

[x0scimy0x]

@climbbot It's not sad if that's the first time you heard it. I don't think it matters where you first heard him, as long as you still appriciate him and his voice

[aytetokiohotel]

looove this song!

[JordanPool13]

his voice reminds me of the singer of Phoenix but better.

[glennaldosf]

hee hee - I'm the opposite, I found Lonely Island because of Boombox - which I found while searching for JC! :-)

[beton21793]

@jarethroxmysox

as long as you found him, you're in heaven.

[predictablegreek]

9 people dislike their inability in knowing what good music truly is.

[CodyT3212]

I might get stoned for this but i find this to be a better song than ANY Strokes song. Something about this solo track of his is timeless and amazing.

[rikusshadow56]

LOL at the two highest comments. And lol at the ending of this song that always scares me because I forget about it.

[ambarabacicicocoable]

è sempre il migliore..e ora che sono tornati insieme..top

[myscenario]

Who cares if others found Julian through boombox, (just don't call him boombox guy, it's Julian.) It's great if he's gaining fans, the more the merrier, yea? True fans should be happy for him. I found him from The Killers almost a year back, I mean come on, we all found out about him in different ways but we all love his music so let's enjoy it.

[TheDavid0595]

i found him from the strokes to be more specific rock-band :p and now i will listen to his songs and the strokes and boombox at least 20 hours a day...... not 24 cuz u know....i have to sleep....

[RainbowCardie]

I can't see how finding Julian through Boombox is a bad thing. The collaboration with Lonely Island is obviously gaining Julian more fans, which means more money for the Julian-company, and that means more tours (hopefully!).

You complainers are just jealous cause Julian's freaking hot. D:

[jimmybyrne9]

Julian is incredible...

[monoply5]

i found julian from boombox.....wtf his music sucks to be honest

[myscenario]

@monoply5 did you listen to his band The Strokes? That might change your mind. This is his solo album, which is different than his usual but I like it.

[Jimmythephilosopher]

found him from boombox and i have to say i'm in love with his music. its so entrancing <3
