  • This was when the strokes still smoked and drank.

  • Mui xvr

  • nice tan jules

  • The solo's are always catchy, I can memorise each of them after mabye 2 listens...

  • The Strokes are just one of the best rock bands EVER. Not many can make that claim.

  • i have had a youtube account for years , saved nearly 300 fav videos , seen thousands of videos and this is by far the best i have come across .. they seriously couldnt get any cooler. and Julian with that jacket ( i want it).

  • Time to get that jacket

  • Words to live by~

  • @dunhamelo dude its OOHHHHH NOOOOOOOO!

  • Does anyone feel thatntheyre playing slower than the orignal? Oh well. I still love the song.

  • @xXCatKingXx i personally love this slowed down version a lot more. you know, the end comes a lot later.

  • keep it down the underground, WOOOOOOOOHHH NOOOOOOOOH

  • fuck it,a good solo is a good solo,but its all a matter of opinion

  • The solo in this song really builds up for Julian to come in with vocals ablazing. The solo also sounds really goddamn awesome. The solo is thus both effective and essential to the song.

  • what i realy love in strokes vids is that there's always a link of a sonic youth vid wich bring you to a pixies link wich bring you to the smiths wich bring you to oasis wich bring you to.... and you finaly felt on something like... uuhh i just can't say it here. AAAhh Youtube.....

  • @apieroR Can you elaborate? Im interested in what the fuck your talkin about? You sound like a pleb to me tbh...

  • Their best song

  • nick and julian are the two coolest guys on the planet

  • God I love this band lol

  • jules. what a little fashionista :)

  • anyone else think that when he says "1 by 1 yeah here they come" at 0:17 it sounds like 1 by 1 nigga here they come??... might just be the racist in me though tbh lol

  • @alterjoymonkey01 not at all

  • ese solo de albert... wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooow es geniaL

     AMO A THE STROKES ¡¡¡

  • Would anybody happen to know if Nick's riff around 00:35-01:08 is single or know its telephone number ?

  • Comment removed

  • ah man i love the strokes <3

  • i know u hear a lot of groupies sayin that but julez leave herrr marry meee lol hes amazing

  • Julian looks like a twin of Sam Riley at this video.

  • lol at 1:32 he looks happy that he just nailed it while he was high

  • They're so good. can't wait for the new album hopefully it'll be as good as room on fire.

  • wait, i thought jules was just gonna have a solo album? are the strokes getting back together?

  • Yeah man, there recording a new album, it'll be out in the beginning of 2010

  • el mejor grupoooo me encanta!!!!!

  • loooooove when albert does a solo

  • @ farid : I guess you're one of those dickheads who judge a band only by the skill its solos require to play. Dude this solo is great. I admit it's not hard to play if you're a good guitar player, but that's not the point. Hate all the guitar players who just strut with their tricky, endless solos which bring nothing to the song. The Strokes understood a great solo is short, fast, and that it has to sound good. Who cares if it's hard to play or not ?

  • WIN

  • Haha thanks nicolas !

  • Completamente de acuerdo, has logrado expresar en palabras lo que he sentido desde siempre, muy buen aporte :D

  • You sure told that guy :)

  • @IndieRockOwns: Exactly, as quoted by Nick "We don't put in a guitar solo just to have one." I love it how their solos are simple, yet brilliant. And Nick's improvisations on live shows are awesome.

  • @IndieRockOwns Bring anyone who can play a better solo and watch Julian take em out of the game (musically)... Music has no boundaries, this solo is perfect for the song so shut up. Knowing scales or chord progressions is nothing to having creativity. Thats what makes musicians genious. If u reply then I give up on you... U win... x

  • @Eggywhipple Not sure what your point is here. I was trying to point out that this solo IS actually pretty good.

  • @IndieRockOwns 100% ownage

  • @IndieRockOwns good one =D

  • @IndieRockOwns solos don't all have to be short. i do enjoy a long improvisation sometimes. i think everything else you said was right though

  • Comment removed

  • @SpiritsFighter Hahahaha, mate, ur english fails... I literally can't understand you at all... N im glad cuz sounds like ur talkin pure bollocks to me... x

  • @Eggywhipple Oh shit I thought u were that farid geeza... Whoops... Sorry x

  • huhuhu

  • I forgot how great this band are.

  • damn this version does rock a little better

  • I like this version

  • In this video, Fab looks kinda like Elijah Wood

  • What the fuck does that have to do with anything? Do you go around your whole life trying to find people who look 'kinda like' Elijah Wood? Seize the day!

  • carpe diem

  • he kinda does...

  • son genios de la musica,y en el estribillo de esta cancion las guitarras son sedantes,y la voz de julian ..la melodia..todo..maestros sin querer serlo

  • was this on letterman? and in 2004?

  • oh wait, they are the best live band ever

  • probably the strokes are one of the best live bands ever

  • I just love when the bass comes in! How f*ckin' great!

  • can someone who knows fashion tell me what kind of jacket that is and where i might be able to buy it?

  • which jacket?

  • casablancas white jacket

  • i may not be a fashionista, but its a simple white blazer.

  • i think the strokes are the greatest group i have three of their albums and my favourite video is the end has no end and i cant wait to here their next album

  • Sound with a low drum beat!! but ít´s still amazing!!!!

  • amo esta rola

  • Julian is so hot *__*

    he got an incredible voice.

  • The Strokes are like the last band on the planet that would ever lip synch.

  • @epiphonematt no band does lip synch but some do lip sync

  • @diekontrolleure worst comment ive ever read

  • @MrBurgundy76 your comment is the worst that i have ever read

  • @MrBurgundy76 best comment i have ever written

  • @epiphonematt muse

  • haha..jules haircut..bcuz im a girl

  • back to the pass and fix it

  • WTF, your an idiot, it's not even the same speed as the studio version

  • correct. also there are little variations in the "oh no"s and jules misses the beat just slightly at 1:48. this is the best band i've ever seen in recreating their album sounds live. for some bands that gets boring, but for the strokes, it really works. probably because their albums are so good.

  • @beneIIi762 i prefer this speed :D

  • the strokes hate Lipsynch.

  • lol how could anyone say they lipsynch ...i mean he sounds so cool loud ..his voice is scratchy and hes usually drunk

  • jules lyp synch? get your head out of your ass

  • haha...juLes hair cut.....

  • this is the best ive ever heard Julians voice

  • no, listen to live version of trying your luck i have it favortied, it's so amazing.

    one of thier best live performences.

  • lol alberts awesome...julians voice is the best

  • the strokes rule

  • Heck Ya bra

  • is this guy fuckin toasted or what?? haha

  • this guy is right

  • this is amazing!!! good job u guys

  • Julian's apathy is somewhat irritating, he looks as if he'd rather be elsewhere.

    And before fans retort by saying that's his style, I am merely expressing my point of view. I think it takes away from the performance, and can only ever result in mediocrity.

  • and before i resort to hunting you down, i am merely expressing my point of view that you are a shallow, uncultured cockmuncher. I think i'll take away your heart, by thrusting a blunt bread knife into your chest, and ripping it out before feeding it to you

  • The ever lovely formosana:

    I was "expressing my point of view".

    Don't even try to act hardcore on the keyboard.

    Fighting online, especially on youtube, is like running the special olympics. Even if you "win", you're still retarded.

    Cut it out.

  • Quoting things you find online isn't that tough either...

  • Its nice too see theyre not a dissapointment live!

    :D

  • the best boring rock band. I like them

  • This song is great - maybe just a slightly slower tempo. If anybody is skeptical about this group, go check them out live - they are really worth it.

  • the tempo is fine. the drum sets the tempo not the singing listen to the drums.. its the same speed. noobs
