Lyrics:
Yeah, the night's not over, you're not trying hard enough
Our lives are changing lanes, you ran me off the road
The wait is over, I'm now taking over
You're no longer laughing, I'm not drowning fast enough

The Strokes are one of those bands that really make you want to start your own
Never wanted to learn how to play guitar so badly as i want when i listen to the strokes😂
No wonder they influenced so many bands during early '00s.
They are at a level that most people will never be able to reach, they are all uber talented but definitely galvanising
"I just wanted to be one of the strokes, now look at the mess you made me make" -Alex Turner, Arctic Monkeys
Yup
Loded Diper really changed their style
good joke.
You just brought back so many memories
thanks for this, dude. i needed the laugh
LMFAO
Thank you for making this comment.
he sounds so sleepy yet so energized
just take this now leave me

EEPY AND READY

Correct medicine does this to you lol
Is incredible how every riff of the strokes is perfect
Yeah? Well, you know, that's just like uh, your opinion, man.
But yea, this riff is pretty much simple and catchy and perfect.
@@AlniemiRad but d’you skate?
this!
Everybody is talking about Julian but nobody seems to appreciate just how fucking on-point the bass is in this song.
as a bassist, i fucking agree with ya
No cap, the main reason I fell in love with this song was the sick bass line in the pre-chorus. Gets me every time
i agree!
Very simple line but the tone has a lot of attitude
i do💛
That guitar riff is incredible
Still one of the best things I've ever heard

Holy sh*t y'all, I've had this song in my head for literal months, but only the opening part, absolutely none of the lyrics so I couldn't google it (it was just the intro dunun du du dun repeating guitar riff) but the only place I've ever heard this song was in a music history class my freshman year of high school (so like 2017), and I was so desperate to find out what song it was I emailed that teacher, and even he wasn't sure what song it was, but I told him that it was rock music and that the artist was male (I also vaguely remembered something about it reminded me of lizards, but my brain makes really weird connections and associations so this was not considered a vital piece of information), so he told me a few artists that we studied that fit the criteria, but when each artist has possibly hundreds of songs it was impossible to narrow it down enough to even entertain the idea of finding it, so I gave up.
It's a few weeks later now, I'm supposed to be asleep, but I was just thinking about lizards, idk why I just like lizards, and somehow the word reptilia floated into focus just enough for me to, without meaning to, go "hey thats a song title" which I literally have no clue how I even remembered that, but oh my god was it the fastest I've ever gotten out of bed. I'd consider this the most important revelation I've had during quarantine. I absolutely cannot believe I found this song.
Edit: Mom I'm famous
god this was quite the read
thank u for sharing fr
Congrats are for people who can't spell congrarculitonstuis
Truly a rollercoaster. Any way you find julian casablancas is a good way.
lol listen to some of there other music too. There’s lots of great stuff
the fact that their first album released when i was less than a year old and theyre still together as ive graduated college...im glad i just got to discover them now and can binge all of their music constantly, but part of me still wishes i had those years of their music that i missed
Love the lyrics where he says “it’s reptilian time”

I once crashed my car to this song. The irony is not lost on me.
S L PLEASE DON’T SLOW ME DOWN IF IM GOING TOO FAAAAAAAST
hah, I once crashed into a drunk person (who was walking across the road in a wrong place) while listening to Skipknot - Wait and Bleed at full blast. And yeah, we were both waiting for an ambulance while he was bleeding next to a sidewalk, with music still blasting out of the car (everything ended fine, no worries).
The song now gives me all the wrong chills when I hear it...
@@roguenova6766 what a great fucking song, but idk about you, maybe I'm psychotic, but that eerie chill would drag me into liking it a bit more. That scary feeling behind it would feel cool
Who ran YOU off the road?

This song is still holding up well after 20 years. A pleasure in buying the Room on FIre album decades back, Strokes.
A good song is a good song. Man made concepts do not affect things
haha i get it its like the thing: ):) :) :P)P)P)::)UYI
This song came out the same year I was born. It’s one of my favorites. The guitar is timeless
They hella rushed this album but they still made it to become my #2 pick for the band, even if the middle three songs dont hit as hard as the rest

shoutout to picsmics for reminding me what a beautiful song this is
[LYRICS]
He seemed impressed by the way you came in
"Tell us a story, I know you're not boring"
I was afraid that you would not insist
"You sound so sleepy, just take this, now leave me"
I said, please don't slow me down if I'm going too fast
You're in a strange part of our town
Yeah, the night's not over, you're not trying hard enough
Our lives are changing lanes, you ran me off the road
The wait is over, I'm now taking over
You're no longer laughing, I'm not drowning fast enough
Now every time that I look at myself
"I thought I told you, this world is not for you"
The room is on fire as she's fixing her hair
"You sound so angry, just calm down, you found me"
I said please don't slow me down if I'm going too fast
You're in a strange part of our town
Yeah, the night's not over, you're not trying hard enough
Our lives are changing lanes, you ran me off the road
The wait is over, I'm now taking over
You're no longer laughing, I'm not drowning fast enough
One of the best reasons why i loved indie-rock bands is cuz of their sick bass lines just like the one in this song.
I mean, it's for the most part just straight 16th root notes. Works well for the song and all but it's not that complicated.
@@sbonfiglioli that isn’t a bad thing
Hi I recommend a new indie song & video called 'Looking Into The Mirror' By Robert Nix
@@davidavila8805 But it's not a creative bassline either. It's just the root. That requires no effort.

I was legit just having the worst day and this song popped in my head so I pulled it up and played it and it changed my entire mood. Thank you music. Thank you Strokes.
💜2024 And this gem continues to shine 💖💎🔥
Probably my favorite song of theirs and Casablanca's belt of "Please don't slow me down if I'm going too fast" is palpable.

Not gonna lie, I really thought The Strokes were an 80’s band until now that I saw that they formed in 98’. They still rock!
Youmadbro IKR? They’re held in such high regard and their songs are so retro sounding that i thought they were old too but then I realised this is it came out in 2001
They formed completely new genre omg.
The same year I was born 😳
Wait really? This gives me early 90's vibes.
If Last Nite Official video was in Black and white format, they kinda looks like 70's Band tho.
A song from 2003 hasn't lost a single bit of relevance nor age. This is real music.
anything created for the please of sound is real music, its people like you that these bands hate and condemn. you are the fake fans

Was lucky enough to see this perfomed live, with these guys turning up at the end of a tiny gig (bout 150 people) in north england a couple of weeks ago, thought i was just going for a canadian indie band but they annouce their "special guests" near the end of the night and suddenly this lot come on blasting reptilia. Truly unforgettable.

I love how Julian always looks like he just woke up and rolled out of bed
Everyone in NYC looked like this from like 1998-2004
and yet he looks hot
Probably takes a team of dedicated stylists to perfect the, “just got out of bed”, look!!! 🤔
Lol! Does he ever look any other way? I have seen dozens of his videos and he always looks that way to me. Very disheveled.

I will never get over how good the strokes are! It’s a vibe!!
That 1:14 riff is an all-timer in my opinion. These boys did more for music than they can ever realize. The overdriven vocals, the clear sharp guitar tone on the Riviera, etc. I still haven't heard anybody else get close to how clean their dirty is. I love the mystery of these guys too, A+++ in my books all the way. Cheers gents.

Everyone has their own tastes, but there's a reason this was chosen by critics as their most complete song. It has energy, power, so many layers and changes in rhythm. Classic.

nice to know that the critics are with me
its just the most catch and well crafted song of theirs, which is a good thing. Aint much theory to it really.
