He's so cut at the end when he say that they never went that far in the song and that they never rehearse it made me smile :)<3

[moralesavalos]

[PortugalTheAccount]

@moralesavalos right into my mouth.

[BVILLE92]

His last words in the very end of the video when he says " So Thank You" Sounds the same in 2002 Live concert of take it or leave it. when he says it end of the end of the song.

[BVILLE92]

"Because we never practice it beforeeeeee"!!!!!  LOL

[DorineMZ]

I love this song, Julian did it well.

It's Amazing ;D Deep and sweet voice as usual.

Thanks Jules.

[PjectManhattan]

I thought it was a Lou Reed cover the first time i heard it

[yolo1998]

really nice :) thanks for uploading.

[Redrum267]

stupid*

[spiderhawk9119]

when i saw them recently they also had a new song not on any cut of the album ive heard! its so cool to know they are writing and getting new stuff out to make the shows longer. I love the Strokes, but i would not mind another JC album too!

[Redrum267]

Where can i get the lyrics to this?

Btw, is this a B-side or something?

[Y3RVA]

Yeah this is a B-Side.

[Redrum267]

Nice. Stupi Q: It's about long island no? i cant make out anything else hes saying...

45 down the road? he said somewhere?

[Y3RVA]

@Redrum267 I got the lyrics for this already.

[Rhys17]

"Where can i get the lyrics to this?"

LOL!

[CindyOhCindy]

@Redrum267 They're in the book that came with the Deluxe Edition Box Set.

[Redrum267]

An ode to my place of residence...

Thanks Julian...

[christiannestrokes]

hahaha i think he improvised at the end, 'did i even get this far in the song because we never even practiced it before'

[andymccoy78]

Thanks! Great slow one, and the chorus is a slow version of "Rave On", by Buddy Holly (covered by the amazing Real Kids...). Love you Jules

[bigjay30]

Thought it sounded more like Woody Guthrie's 'This Land is Your Land". The verses are definitely 'Big rock candy mountain;.

[sondrelerche613]

Long Island Blues, I snagged the setlist from stage during the intermission for the second part of his show

[archxofxroses]

that's really pretty. :) his choruses are always fantastic.

[scartiger]

its Long Island Blues. I grabbed the setlist after the show.

[sharonshinoda]

according to someone over at HTE, it's called "long island blues".

[songforcarol23]

Aw I love the end

[caitlingaling]

i was there too! such a good song. he calls it "french cafe" at the end i think.

[Y3RVA]

Really? I'll look into it. Thanks.

[rjaymerin]
