[pooja94ekbote]

They are from the Brave New World

[ashnil90]

240p for safety reasons.

[letsaplaymario8899]

Somebody tell me why this video is in 240p, and yet my computer still can't load the video fast enough for the video to play without catching up to the loading point and stopping the video... :/

[jackw044]

@letsaplaymario8899 your internet is shit fucked..

[pramsaurus]

for me, the bad sound condition makes it more perfect

[ale5punk]

IT'S HARD TO EXPLAIN WHY 134 PEOPLE DISLIKE THIS

[MrCckf]

240p comment, we meet again

[BaktolKillWithGuitar]

I missed this song

[NINJAMUFFINHARTSU]

This is probably the, oh idk, 600th time I've watched this video, and I just realized that the second half is the first half played backward -.- I love these guys (:

[gabishmabi]

@NINJAMUFFINHARTSU the second half is the first half played backwards...whaaaaaa?? how?

[CYANBUSTA]

i don't see it that way

[azimchew]

[ClassyQuib]

Overused comment

We meet again.

[SuperHotchocolateman]

only way to explain this is to get high

[dav967]

this video is hard to explain

[victorrenna]

listening to the strokes makes me feel alive

[cikonos]

on 2:06 what's the arrow spread means? i think it coming from malaysia?

[black5620]

@cikonos entreport

[BusinessSocks101]

An arrow should squiggle over to NZ.

[MrCollie110]

YES too katy perry s fabulouse boobs ,,, black hair ,,not pink for her mind you , such a nice face she has ,, jul,s has a beautiful male face , need a lot more vodka to sleep with him though,,,

[MrCollie110]

the ultimate cool ,, strokes ,,,and too make it a little cooler we have magnum P,I for a start of video say no more ,,,master Robin approves,,,T,C,and Rrick get the mood ,,higgins a bit more work needed to get him on board,,,,,, like it ,,

[grantaldn]

That compressed drum sound is just excellent.

[mynameisalyf]

check us out we did quite a few FULL ACOUSTIC COVERS OF THE STROKES (hard to explain, soma, the end has no end, modern age etc). feel free to like/dislike us for your time, it'd be nice to get our views up n get an audience. thanks!!!

[TinyTeaza2k7]

their best song. fucking perfect.

[marzero0]

Trying to remind her,When we go back (8)

[BigDuke921]

one of the best songs to ay on the bass

[mindistorter]

War Games XO

[TicTacJoe134]

0:57 I love that clip of the takeoff... it's so beautiful...

[michaelb3197]

@TicTacJoe134 Even more beautiful is 2:30 where it shows microscopic particle collision in action.

[borashnikov]

if you disliked this then please go back to your hole!

[mynameisalyf]

unlike most other more good-looking, cliche music videos out there, i think this work is truly genius. the images might seem random at first but i think they're all well thought-out of and are all deliberately chosen to convey some deep, obscure message. i mean if you watch this carefully and think about it, you'd get it, it'll be just at the back of yr head, but you just cant quite explain what it is. ties in with the theme of the song perfectly. favorite song from strokes

[Ignazio2693]

guys check out a new awesome band called The Audiots that sounds like these rock gods!!

Just click on my channel and give them a listen!! It can't hurt to try. Like jules said i'll try anything once;)

[Biltonmonn]

I bet 129 people find it hard to explain how they dislike this song!

[EminentKnight]

I don't see it that way. Problem? :)

[thestrokes20115]

129 personas son SORDAS.

I LOVE THE STROKES♥

[lfc011]

best video ever! i dont want want thumbs up btw :) Strokes leeds festival!:P

[CrashoftheConchords]

these words are poetry and I'm glad they've been sung.

[spscarter]

Sounds like I'm listening to the song underwater...

[minez05]

nostalgia



[thegoaheadbar]

[TheLukaraptor]

[dukisDX]

[thegoaheadbar]

@dukisDX lool

[felaniz]

128 cant explain at all

[Alex8Video]

Amazing



[ooalexblueoo]

Does that map mean something? thats the second time i see it on their songs

[SSawesomeface]

im probably going to die listening to this level of awesome

[ilovejamesandmoney]

Just try to explain in your next album. Hes got the brains just let em free. I hate boring songs with useless words... eg songs about, im avin a ball and a party, or i love you / miss you/ i had a hard life/ OR IM ROLLING WITH THE MONEY AND PUSSY. just give good words ya selfish mos

[ehmazin]

TERRIBLE QUALITY DONT CARE THIS SONG IS THE FUCKING BOSS

[brodohfasho]

First song I learned on the drums, and still after three years I play it regularly. It never gets old!

[SMOUSEofficial]

I DONT SEE IT THAT WAY! I DONT SEE IT THAT WAY! *dances the night away*, i absolutely love the gap just after 2:04 so perfect

[SSawesomeface]

@SMOUSEofficial dat gap

[oer420]

Hard to explain how anyone could dislike this video -_-

[CInglis95]

[ReneeRawrz13]

240p

We meet again

[Dirtypotatoeater]

@ReneeRawrz13 because I don't get to see that comment on every god damn video I watch. Way to be creative. Good goin'.

[ReneeRawrz13]

@Dirtypotatoeater Chill bro :P

[Dirtypotatoeater]

@ReneeRawrz13 Oh, I'm just a cynical prick, don't pay any attention lol.

[ReneeRawrz13]

@Dirtypotatoeater Dude I never said that XD

And omfg that username is from the fucking gods

[Dirtypotatoeater]

@ReneeRawrz13 I know :P Thanks, someone actually asked me if it's some kind of sexual reference. If it is, I don't want to know about it.

[jamiemu293]

@Dirtypotatoeater wish you'd two would stop sucking each other off, piss off

[fodgd]

@ReneeRawrz13 I don't get it D:

[ravelo310]

127 people see it that way

[RaZinanA]

what's that I hear? Oh yeah, real music

[qoakzm2qoakzm]

meh i try to get into this album but its too mechanical and the production is too flat for me to get into - the beat is so unrelenting across the whole album, sounds like im listening to a mirage. the tunes are still relly good tho - this: the end especially of this one, last nite, barely legal, is this it, take it or leave it, modern age etc - but just cant listen to this album alot or all at once and someday reminds me too much of a british tv advert

[AngrypunkNaysayer]

@qoakzm2qoakzm deuchebag

[qoakzm2qoakzm]

@AngrypunkNaysayer cunt

[chanceie12]

@qoakzm2qoakzm dumbest comment ever.

[qoakzm2qoakzm]

@chanceie12 thanks

[shockeyvz]

@qoakzm2qoakzm nope

[kkoolaid1]

you're asking why this song is so good? it's hard to explain.

[Kook19]

"I Say the Right Things, But Act the Wrong Way.." - Those Lyrics Kill It for Me Every Time - The Strokes Are Class

[hunterhalo2]

Fuck 240P

[michaelb3197]

Anyone miss good fuckin music like this and Libertines, The Enemy and Oasis

[101YouCantSeeMe101]

I am aroused.

[bobstacle098]

More like... the strokes are awesome. It's not Hard to Explain

[TMBlackCat]

Jack_Verve sent me to here from his UCP LS-RP account

[Samongboy]

this sounds like im having a space flight

[crusstyjuggler]

its like it gets better every time i listen to it

[j1l9f9k0]

has anyone noticed the noughts and crosses at 1:51 is the same as the flash of noughts and crosses in the last nite video at around 1:26.

weird

[violinpenguinfreak]

fuck it

why is katy perry on the suggestions box

you can't compare her to these guys.

[CrypticElement]

10 years

[rippt530]

@GeorgeGilbertAllan: It's hard to explain?

[chadelliottyler]

Why does Katy Perry's dumb ass video keep popping up every time i watch a video of a band worthy of a view?

[saragr94]

@chadelliottyler i have been wondering the same thing.

[conalee1]

@chadelliottyler to be fair, katy perry has cracking tits

[aijunk2]

@conalee1

So she's famous because she's notorious? Yeah, makes sense. Most mainstream music (since the late 70's) has been nothing but appealing to the masses; whether it be, trends, clothing or just doing what's "in" at the time, similar to being trendy.

[Lookin4sweetTALK]

@conalee1 so what, shes the ONLY woman in the world with those sized boobs, or "cracking tits," and that makes her comparable to the strokes?

idiot.

[plankton22]

@Lookin4sweetTALK gotta love people who don't have a sense of humor

[Lookin4sweetTALK]

@plankton22 okay i dont think its funny.

this sense of humor is stupid.

[Geffles]

@chadelliottyler It's hard to explain

[GeorgeGilbertAllan]

Dear uploader, I used to watch your uploaded "Hard to Explain" video so much on my iPhone that I bought the video on iTunes via my iPhone. Then, about a month later (after apple forced me to agree to new terms/conditions in order for me to use their monopolistic service,) I could no longer view the video on my iPhone (that I effing paid for;) nor could I view it here. Does the Strokes employ a team of douchebag lawyers that want to make it impossible for me to watch a strokes music vid

[vonkreger]

2:05 may have been the second scariest moment of my life.

[necroforum]

como amo a este chiko es un amor y su voz es la de dioses lo amo

[euyfdvfhj]

@Xenavreth It's hard to explain...

[valeskasln]

ıs thıs the offıcıal vıdeoclıp? ı love the song, but the vıdeo really sucks

[ThinCrustPizza67]

@valeskasln Fuck your stupid opinion.

[valeskasln]

@ThinCrustPizza67 thank you!

[kiaranbrown]

In 2009, NME named Is This It as the greatest album of the decade (2000s).[5] The album placed second on a similar list compiled by Rolling Stone.

[jacobygreenwood]

@kiaranbrown Radiohead/The Strokes... that's it.

[chanceie12]

@jacobygreenwood rolling stone said that .. it is The Strokes/Radiohead everyday for me.

[gogolplex74]

@kiaranbrown Higher than Interpol and Arcade Fire?

what a Joke

[chanceie12]

@gogolplex74 Lol Arcade Fire arent bad , id put them 3rd.. But Interpol? lol

[kiaranbrown]

@gogolplex74 Music is all about personal taste.

[LuluHeeNim]

why the fuck that the strokes can produce songs that r extra catchy??

[jajaemi]

Im gonna get married and its Hard to Explain!.

[krylon2009]

Where is this video from? :o

[rofflemows2]

intro part of this song: "....you gotta keep em separated" :D

children of the 90s know what i'm talkin about =)

[hannrkelley]

@rofflemows2 OH MY GOD THANK YOU.

It's been killing me where I know that from!!! Hahaha you sir are a genius.

[AndreaskaseSkate]

I tryed to get into a school... I love musi, and play guitar... and I KNOW it's what I want to do for the rest of my life.... But my grades weren't good enough so I ended on my 3 school choise... with almost the same people...with the same stuff...

what do I do know? I LISTEN TO THE FUCKING STROKES BITCHES !

[Supaduck0]

This is one of those songs where I sometimes listen to it and laugh out loud at how good it is. The Strokes are one of the only bands who can make me feel true happiness and excitement for life.

[Scedgable]

They did this at T in the Park on Saturday! Was amazing love this tune! :D

[NoSurprisesPlease0]

awesome song shit quality

[JoSeAnDrEs410]

Baby . . . it's Hard to Explain . . .



[SuperRobotdog]

awsum band

awsum song

awsum video

did i already say awsum?...................

AWSUM!

[DemecraticXplosion]

This better have 3 million views next time I come on here.

[wellleite]

This video must have been inspired by the film Koyaanisqatsi !!

[WeiTangXD]

I love this song but it's hard to explain! >.<

[garrash6]

I never got the video,I guess it's Hard To Explain.

[embong100]

i love this song,

i don't know why,

i harded to explain,

i like the strokes,

they makes me feel good.

[StuartG1986]

This video trips you out when you are very high?!?!?

[alicen1100]

last nite everything was simple in the moonlight but someday u ll take me for a fool and ill take it or leave it and we will have two kinds of happiness corny but i was bored :P

[noble381297]

@alicen1100 nah it aint corny.. thats creative bro!!!

[chanceie12]

@noble381297 dude , she is a girl .. alice in her name gives it away.

[rkscuba210]

@alicen1100 i bet ur a cutie :D

[PupuTheClown]

sounds like they're really stroking their instruments really hard.

[thegamemonster]

i was shocked when i found out it was the same julias casablancas as in the song boombox

[loganmaddox]

@thegamemonster And now you know why pieces of shit like Justin Bieber and anything the Disney Channel has produced sound "perfect". Computers can completely change the way a person sounds. Julian, however, sounds great without "help" :P

[Teteresaa]

@loganmaddox ur so fucking right!!!

[theckp]

What an awesome song! Thanks for the upload!

[DjMooney27]

'Is This It' changed me so much its weird, I was such a different before I had listened to the album and now I am so happy I discovered it. The 21st century masterpiece in my opinion, beats anything.

[synysterjazmyngates]

Loved this the second I heard it. <3

[sethmurderous]

Reminds me of early 2000, when the internet was cool to sneak out of bed for, and getting grounded was something to rebel against. anyone?

[HJManson]

one of the rare 10/10 songs

[tacobacon117]

2:20 :) lmao great song

[prs2100]

I agree, the video is rather hard to explain...

[pmmiller353]

The Strokes meet Koyaanisqatsi. Only a few will know what i mean,,,but I love this vid!

[gfyt]

raised in carolina im not like that

[ClarenceBoddicker87]

:41-:47 Arc Light

3:43 Magnum PI

[jovenmedia]

good sh*t...my fav Strokes song

[zaq147369]

I never got the point of this video in relation to the song. I just came to realize it was hard to explain.

[danzn07]

AAí aaaaí,Jesus,será q vo conseguir ver eles no Planeta Terra?

[DaSwaggerdon]

allow 240p...

[edrozaz]

The Strokes videos are always the best...really POWERFULL!!!

[LuizaCard]

in love with the video

[persephone99]

i'm so highhhhhhhh right now.

[minnieosbourne]

Fantastic song, hard to explain why the video suits it so much

[HumanJarv]

One of my favourite videos ever as of now.
