And I'm tired of all your friends
Listening at your door
I want what's better for you
So long, my friend and adversary
But I'll wait for you

Bless that first day I heard The Strokes.

"Everybody's singing the same song for ten years"
And today this song is 10 years old. Thanks, The strokes
Yep, i remember those good old days
Do you know what does he mean by that phrase? Is he talking about Last Nite?
@@josegassull6276 talking about this song , under cover of darkness
@@josegassull6276 Yeah, he even does a reference with the mic stand (he throws a mic stand on the music video for last nite).
@@vaultman2971 nice! Thats what I thought
Dude that guitar solo is A MASTERPIECE! A BUNCH OF FEELINGS
The drums bby ❤😊😍
Perfect. Not flashy but just exactly what the song wants.
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.
Elite cord progressions
Typically unless you have an ear for it or are a musician yourself, plus a good headset, most people don’t know how UNIQUE they are…i appreciate them more and more through the years
Guarantee you other bands that have acquired more fame and accolades listen to them saying gahhh I wish we could do that
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"....
Wow, que observadora!
Opa, um brasileiro por aqui...
la escuchaste bien a
And it shows their bodies floating in the Coca Cola (or whatever that liquid is) that was in you only live once
... and 10min plus ten hrs equals 10:10. two ones equals 11. 11 is prime like 3. 3 sides of a triangle. illumanati.
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.
that's such a sweet story
69 graus cersio fahrenheit kelvin yeah it’s true, I was the REAL dad
It’s true I was the pregnancy test
Aha that's an awesome story, what part of the song was playing when you opened the door lol?
@@judebreheny3925 So looOOOOOOng my adversary and friend
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
Excellent lyrics.🔥🎶🎸
Me encantaaaaaa
Gracias master
what is the song about ?
❤❤❤❤thankssss
This is lowkey their best song. Not a second is wasted from the vocals, the instrumental, the melody. Everything is here.
yeah i literally was having that same conviction while listening to it now... plus the lyrics are so powerful, and have great advice as well
Yeah to me it's definitely in the top 3. But it's my favorite
It deff isnt with songs like Hard to explain and Someday, but you make a good argument
@@MarcoBoswerth I 100% agree. This song makes me cry lol. Heard this from 2k15 it just brings back so many memories.🥲
Dude this still seems to me as one of the "new ones" by The Strokes, and it's almost 10 years old
Thank god they are making songs again
crazy right
Now we got 9 more my dude!
_I've been all around this town, everybody singing the same song for ten years_
What do you mean with old? What's new?
Julian's smile at the end. :)
***** No, just no.

Escuche esta cancion una sola vez en la radio camino al trabajo hace mas de 6 años, jamas supe su nombre pero me volo la cabeza.
Hoy empeze a escuchar mucho de the strokes y me la vengo a cruzar, no lo puedo creer

I made a spotify playlist with this song added 50 times and that was it. I then listen to it exclusivly for about a month. Good times.
You, deserve a cookie cause that sounds rad

Thanks?

They're no tempo drop, the drummer just switches from double time to regular and back
mi parte favorita
I love how at 2:07 when Juilan says "ten years" he throws the mic stand, just like he did in the "Last Nite" video, which came out 10 years before this song did
Great eye, that is a pretty amazing callback
Make an original comment you stole this
Some of the best guitar riffs I've ever heard.
Thats true! I f*cking love this riff
And one of the best solo I've ever heard
This band always has the best guitar riffs! They rock!😆
lol
Nba 2k15 bought me here
This gem is 10 years old today and everybody has been singing the same song for 10 years
Omg, The Best Band Of our generation. I had the honor of meeting each of them and just saying they are Even Better LIVE. Missing you Jules . ♥️ From Boston
One of the greatest songs ever created, not kidding.
agreed
Nah mate
Definitely one of the best Strokes's songs
@@allisonlogsdon3490 and the strokes are one of best bands ever
I respect the bold opinion
That is one hella bittersweet guitar solo
Love that quitar riff during the verse . Sooooo much talent here .
The Strokes is one of the few groups that from the first time you hear a song of theirs, it stays in your mind forever.
I've heard that first guitar part as a kid once and it followed me ever since. Been looking for this song for 9 years and now finally found it
congrats!

The Strokes are definitely one of those bands that are good during any era of their career!
Nothing brought me here, I just like the strokes
Liking the Strokes brought you here
Not listening to the strokes for a while brought me here
Same lmao
Same here
Same man
I just realized this, but when he says "everybody's been singing the same song for 10 years," hes talking about the song last night, and during the video for last night, he flings the microphone stand just like he did when he said that line.
Jake ewald
duh
I love how they show You Only Live Once at the beginning. Jules is so adorable!! I love them so much.
When the song came out it played the same time every morning on a video show on TV, I got used to it, became a big fan of the song and The Strokes!!
By any chance was it VH1?
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.
Beautiful
Try cage the elephant if you like the strokes and need more!

Thanks!
Thankss Man
the breakdowns and octave changes make this song sound so good
I discovered the Strokes as I entered 7th grade, almost 11 years ago. Everyday on the first day of school/class I listened to this song. It got me going. It made me excited for my new start. Nothing quite mimics the feeling this song gives me.
Those are some great memories associated with the strokes music, I was the same, they were the soundtrack to my teenage years, if you are looking for new music you should check out Lonely Gimmick - Pessimistic Weather ,it gives me The Strokes vibes and is a cool unknown gem
I can't compare this song to anything
Whether it be getting through a deployment, working out, waking up, singing it on blast in the car with my girl or even on moments of pure despair this song always fits.
youre life is so cool
Wow you sound like quite the guy.
your life must be so boring
Words cannot express how much I love this song...
I guess its hard to explain. :3
Tuna Fishy Best comment ever
Tuna Fishy I see what ya did there(;
I agree whit you
4 years ago today, I found this song that I remembered from my childhood and discovered my favorite band and my favorite song
I never though I would still be listening to this song for over 10 yrs. It gives me so much energy.
Godbless to the guys who moved all the equipment like amps and drums...
props to them
This song never fails to make me happy and nostalgic.
I repeat it over and over again, it's so addictive listening to this song
what a great band, I love all their music, long live The Strokes
I just discovered that Julian is 42 years old. I thought he was like in his mid 20s

The strokes will always make me feel like I’m 17 years old and watching a show at soma for the first time , ahhhhhhh best times ever!! ❤❤❤❤
Nick is the most underrated guitarist of all time. I've literally never seen better and I love all types of rock going back multiple decades. He is the best.
Truth Teller totally agree!
Facts
I also think they have a bassist that brings a lot to the table too. Great fucking band all around
good player but Julian wrote most of the iconic riffs and solos + a large majority of the bass lines
Vanilla Killa evidence
You Only Live Once: "I'll be waiting for you baby"
Vision Of Division: "All that I do is wait for you"
Under Cover Of Darkness: "I'll wait for you"
Julian seems to be waiting a lot! ^^
I was thinking the same yesterday! :D
chances: I waited for ya
I waited for ya
I waited on ya
But now I don't
Visión of división: Im not coming back
He stopped waiting until Chances :(
Not that much compare to MCR fans
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
This song was released exactly 10 years ago today!! Wow it seems like yesterday!! This is one of the greatest songs with a lot of meaning and importance to me!! Love that this song signaled their 'comeback' and featured all the classic musical elements that the band was known for. I especially love the twin guitar main riffs at the beginning of the song and at the start of the second verse. I also especially love the guitar solo played by Nick Valensi during the song's bridge.
I've been listening to this band every morning when I work out for the past week and I can't seem to get tired of them, now that's rare!
You've got a great taste in music,man.People like you are not easy to find. By the way, what's your work?
Thanks :) and by work if you are referring to one of my posts on my profile, I used to write a lot of short stories, poetry and lyrics. Consumed by studying at the moment...
D. Edouard Albert Hmm,there must've been a misunderstanding. I'd red "work" not "work out" but i didn't know you write short stories, poetry and lyrics,where exactly can i find them?
Oh not anywheres at the moment since I'll be trying to publish them once I have some free time :)
They achieved a unique sound
I will always love the Strokes, but lately I've been completely obsessed with listening to them again ahhhh I don't want this feeling to fade 🥰
There's a lot of memories in this song. Awesome!
this song's on my 'songs to sing to myself during an exam ,when i don't know the answer to a question ' playlist.

+Carla Duarte No there is no cure for The Strokes addiction. It's something you will live with the rest of your life
Julan is conducting himself in the final scene This one of my favorite songs to play on guitar and I'm thankful that this video exists!
I got introduced to the strokes by my brother when I was 8 yrs old my brother didn't stay at home for much time and was always abroad so when he went away I just missed him and start exploring his playlist and that's how I got into indies rock and I can't stop listening to it till now and I would really like this song to be played in my funeral
This Song makes me feel sad and good at the same time ! Masterpeace .
Right???! The Strokes make my heart feel light and heavy at the same time...
No Fear to life me too it’s crazy
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 Strokes are my fav new modern band, they're so great! I wish more mainstream music was this quality!
I love the guitar harmonies
Easily one of the best songs they've ever written. It's just... insanely good
I am glad I was introduced to the strokes when I was. Good stuff right here.
Eu lembro quando lançou essa música na MTV. Foi maravilhoso demais

Omg!!!! I've been looking for this song for years :,)
lol the vids been here for like 3 yrs hahaha but yeah i love it also

This song shaped the style of music I like, first heard on MTV rocks during my high school times, now I am in early 30s, a month ago went on the Strokes concert in Melbourne and felt like teenager again, The Strokes, you are fabulous!
The only band from that early 2000 indie-rock revival that is still going strong. Love this song, everytime is listen to ti, i become 21 again.
I refuse to believe this song (and album) is nearly 10 years old
everybody’s singing the same song for 10 years...
Let that sink, like holy crap....
And everybody singing the same song for 10 years
This make me feell old bro😂
Recently rediscovered the Angles album after a few years without hearing it. This song is so great and really is the high point of that album. The layering of everything just fits together so well and I love how the song surges forward without hesitation. One of their best.
Todo Angles es espectacular ❤❤

Damn genius, you are fucking right.
The fact that the video before this one was you only live once sorta makes your theory even better
The fact that the video before this one was you only live once sorta makes your theory even better

It is about the after life, he is trying to tell you to choose a better path, as in don't take his path, his path wasn't the right path. Hence the lyrics "Don't go that way, I'll wait for you"
