    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.

    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.

    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

    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.

    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.

      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.

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.
