    Anyone else noticed how at 2:02 he says "I've been all around this town, everybody's been signing the same song for ten years" and then throws his mic stand away just like he did in the video for Last Nite (which was released in 2001, ten years before this video) in the part that says "well I've been in town for just about ten minutes now"....

    I think what really separates the strokes from other indie/garage acts are their creative chord progressions and guitar parts. This is my favourite track of theirs and one of my favourite indie songs ever.

    Lyrics:
    Slip back out of whack at your best
    It's a nightmare
    So I'm joining the army
    No house phones, but can I still call?
    Will you wait for me now?
    We got the right to live, fight to use it
    Got everything but you can just choose it
    I won't just be a puppet on a string
    Don't go that way
    I'll wait for you
    And I'm tired of all your friends
    Listenin' at your door
    But I want what's better for you
    So long, my friend
    And adversary
    Oh, but I'll wait for you
    Get dressed, jump out of bed into a vest
    Are you okay?
    I've been all around this town
    Everybody's singin' the same song for ten years
    I'll wait for you
    Will you wait for me too?
    And they sacrifice their lives
    And they're lyin' about those odds
    And they said it a billion times
    And they'll say it again
    So long, my adversary and friend
    Don't go that way
    I'll wait for you
    Well, I'm tired of all your friends
    Knockin' down your door
    Get up in the morning, yelling no more
    So long, my friend
    And adversary
    Oh, I'll be waitin' for you

    Funny story....I remember when this song fist came out and as a fan of The Strokes I put it on to listen and my wife calls me from the bathroom.... So I'm like it never fails I want to listen to something and she needs something.... So I put the volume up and walk to the bathroom grabbing TP thinking thats what she needs and I knock on the door open it and say here... She looks at me and says " I'm pregnant" and shows me the pregnancy test.... This song always brings me back to that day.

    This song makes me cry. It's so beautiful and perfect. it's the combination of the chords and scales used that makes my emotions come pouring out. When the build up to the chorus starts I get an anxious feeling. Then the vocals hit me hard and they bring a lot of sadness to my mind. Melancholy and nostalgia over past events, such as no longer having certain people in my life. It's almost to much to handle. And whats funny is the verse is quiet up beat, which makes it that much more sad. Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb" also makes me cry. especially when the solo comes in. Music that Pierces your heart is rare.

    In the 2001 music video (the Strokes’ first) for “Last Nite”, Julian picks up the mic stand and throws it at 1:03. Does the same in the music video for “Under Cover of Darkness” released in 2011 in which he sings the line, “Everybody’s singing the same song for ten years” at 2:07. Possible commentary on how he felt about the public reception to the band’s later work versus their debut.

    Will you hate for me now?
    We got the righteous advice to use it
    Got everything but you can just choose it
    I won't just be a puppet on a string
    Don't go that way.

    And I'm tired of all your friends
    Listening at your door
    And I won't, I better call you.
    So long, my friend and adversary.
    But I will call you.
    Get dressed, jump out of bed and do it best.
    Are you OK?
    I've been out around this town
    And everybody's been singing the same song ten years.
    I'll wait for you.
    Will you wait for me too?
    And they sacrifice their lives
    In our land are all closed eyes.
    I've been saying we're beaten down, I won't say it again.
    So long, my end.
    The sorry embrace.
    Don't go that way.
    I'll wait for you.
    I'm tired of all your friends,
    Knocking down your door.
    Get up in the morning, give it your all.
    So long, my friend and adversary.
    I'll wait for you.

    I'm crying my fucking ass out right now, but thank god i got to know her. I was 13 and she was 11 when we met, and now i'm 27. By that time, she showed me some great music, one of them being this song, which she said that reminded her of me.
    I will never forget you, Luiza.

    Just recently discovered the strokes after my mother told me about how she won tickets to the weenie roast on one of their songs followed by hours of listening to all the bands she seen that day. I’m quite disappointed she didn’t show me them earlier thanks mom

    God this song is sooo underrated. It's one of the best rock songs of all time. It's so catchy, the lyrics are relevant and clever, and the vocals and guitar is amazing. It doesn't get the credit it deserves.

    "Everybody singin' the same song for the last ten years..." -- well, if it's THIS song, then I'm cool with that.

    Slip back out of whack, at your best
    Retrocede, fuera de lugar, incluso en tu mejor momento.
    It's a nightmare, so I'm joining the army
    Es una pesadilla, así que me estoy uniendo al ejército.
    No house phones, but can I still call?
    No hay teléfonos en casa, ¿pero aún puedo llamar?
    Will you wait for me now?
    ¿Me esperarás ahora?
    We got the right to live, fight to use it
    Tenemos el derecho a vivir, lucha por usarlo.
    Got everything but you can just choose it
    Tienes todo, pero simplemente puedes elegirlo.
    I won't just be a puppet on a string
    No seré solo una marioneta en una cuerda.
    ---
    Don't go that way
    No vayas por ese camino.
    I'll wait for you
    Te esperaré.
    And I'm tired of all your friends
    Y estoy cansado de todos tus amigos.
    Listening at your door
    Escuchando detrás de tu puerta.
    And I won't, I better call you
    Y no lo haré, mejor te llamo.
    So long, my friend and adversary
    Adiós, mi amigo y adversario.
    ---
    But I'll wait for you
    Pero te esperaré.

    Get dressed, jump out of bed and do it best
    Vístete, sal de la cama y hazlo lo mejor posible.
    Are you OK? I've been out around this town
    ¿Estás bien? He estado por este pueblo.
    And everybody's been singing the same song for ten years
    Y todos han estado cantando la misma canción durante diez años.
    ---
    I'll wait for you
    Te esperaré.
    Will you wait for me too?
    ¿Me esperarás tú también?
    ---
    And they sacrifice their lives
    Y sacrifican sus vidas.
    In our land, our pride
    En nuestra tierra, nuestro orgullo.
    ---
    And I'll wait for you
    Y te esperaré.
    ---
    But they will not stop until you're gone
    Pero no se detendrán hasta que te hayas ido.

    Mientras todos están perdidos, la batalla está ganada.
    With all these things that I've done

    When this song came out - my son was in his terrible teen years - usually giving me his crappy attitude, as what kids do during that time. But whenever he heard me play this song, he'd drop the crappy attitude and sit and listen to it with me. ❤

      I had a playlist on spotify a while back and 15 year old me didn't know how to loop it, so I just let the same recommended songs play every time I listened. After a while, I started to get used to the first few and kind of liked them a lot, so I checked the names and the band: You Only Live Once & One Way Trigger. So I looked into the band more and made a new playlist and after a while my dad stopped outside my open door while i was playing it and asked how I found the strokes; it turned out he'd been a strokes fan for years. From that point on the strokes has always been another level of understanding between us, he used to show me his favourites and I'd show him new ones I'd found or share a playlist with him. I've always loved the strokes as much as I do because of my dad.

    The first time I listened to The Strokes I remember thinking about where they had been all my life.
    Thanks quarantine for making me want to discover new music.

      For the last 20 years I didn’t want to listen to them, they were just another band, I was living my life listening to rock , but I always skipped them in my indie rock playlists. I couldn’t stand the introduction for last nite and reptilia, and they seemed so fake. Then one day I heard last nite complete and then someday and then reptilia, I got hooked. When I heard modern age, heart in its cage, then I fell for them. I am addicted now, I don’t know want to do.
