im so excited right now. my cousin got me a us marines dress blues jacket and he got me an official one. if you got someone in your family in the corps get em to get you one and pay em back.
This song isnt on any of their CD's is it? I mean the full album, Cause I have all 3 and I listen to those CDs at leas once a day if I have time and I have never heard this before.
wonder how many they went through as a band that night. it doesn't matter, strokes always put on an entertaining show. if they released an album full of b-sides and outtakes from is this it, i bet it would be the best selling album of 2008. first impressions of the earth didn't tickle my fancy by any means.
They took it off the american release cause the album came out like 2 weeks after 9/11 and julian wanted it off cause he thought people would get the wrong idea
Oh.. I'll tell my aunt there to send me a copy from there then, lol. The only song on the Is This It album I didnt like was "Trying your luck". otherwise its the best record ive ever heard in my 14 years of life lol
yeah a lot of their songs have to grow on you but eventually they do and its awesome.. cause i hate songs that suck after hearing a lot but with the strokes the songs get better instead!
yeaa true! though i really hate 'last night' now...and so do the strokes funnely enough, but due to media a band makes one great song and its ruined because everyone wants to hear it!
Trying Your Luck, in my opinion, is one of their best songs. But I think that if 9/11 never would have happened, and When It Started was omitted for NYC Cops, Is This It might be one of the greatest 100 records of all-time for things like Rolling Stone and whatnot.
well thats why we have opinions. atleast i tried to like that song.. and it just irriates me.. so yeah.. cant flag me for that cause i really gave it a chance but it wasnt for me. i still think its the best album everrrr. im sick of people like stuck in the 1960s and think the only good music in the world is from that period. pleasee.
btw, 7 months later, i love 'trying your luck'! lol its awesome. this just proves my point from earlier about certain songs having to grow on you, and then your like "why the F didnt i like this before?"
I enjoy The Strokes. I think they are a good band. I always thought the singer sounded like he was delivering his vocals over a shitty phone line,though. Does he seem oddly muffled to anyone else?
yeah.. thank god for that 2 dollar bill concert. it seems really great from all the videos on you tube.. i wish i was there then.. my god. but i was like.. in 1st or 2nd grade around the time it happened so i probably would never have known about the strokes nor would i be allowed to see them lol
:D

Yeah, I'm upset they took it off because I personally prefer it over When It Started, but I could understand why they would do that.

That's the sound he was going for on the first two albums. I think this differentiates them from most other bands, which is cool I guess.
