The Strokes covered part of this song at their show in Lisbon a couple days ago. I’ve been listening to your version nonstop lately and it was surreal to see live from the band themselves.
This totally reminds me of a lesser known strokes song called “Hawaii”, amazing production and sound my dude! This rocked my world and made me pick up my guitar again for the first time in a few years!
Love the way you sing it, sounds just as Julian´s voice but with your own personal touch. Also the bass like reptilia and the verse with one of the adults are taking guitar riff on it! Amazing! A delight for us The Strokes fans.
I’ve never been a fan of Harry Styles but I’ve always loved the Strokes. Even though “As it Was” is structurally sound the style never caught my attention, but this version is pretty good omg
I just watched the Arcade Fire cover of this song, and kept thinking... have The Strokes covered this yet? Alas, the search brought me here, and that was exactly how I pictured they would do it. Bravo & thank you, Matty Greg!
Thank you, this strengthens my theory that The Strokes and JC's partnership with DaftPunk reshaped pop music in the last 5 years thanks to their massive impact since their debut. The Weeknd, Harry Styles, Tame Impala, Sam Fender, Clairo's Sophia, Ed Sheeran, etc. have all sounded like them in some of their songs. Also, they saved rock with "Is This It". Good work.
Honestly, the Strokes and Daft Punk are the unsung MVPs in recent years. I get they're quite well-known but I barely know anyone who genuinely talks about them, so you could argue they kinda reshaped pop from behind the scenes.
Wow, throughout the song, I kept being blown away at how much you NAILED that unique "Strokes" sound in each instrument, melody, and harmony. Absolutely amazing!
Unbelievable. Please please Spotify version now!!!! This the best strokes impression ever. There is many on UA-cam but you’re the best ! Julian casablancas should listen to this now
@@matthewpeterson7652 You just have to download this video as an mp3, turn on your local files in the spotify settings both in your computer and phone (if you have windows you can open the spotify settings with ctrl+p,) move this song to your selected folder and it should apear in the local files folder in spotify, from there you just add it to your playlist as a normal song.
The way you absolutely nail Julian’s tone in every. single. register is truly impressive. Before I read the description I assumed someone used AI to produce the voice, it was that good. I can’t get over it. You even jumped between vocal registers in a pattern that Julian would totally do. A+ from me, I’m blown away by how good this is
@@mattygregmusic thanks for the awesome cover, it's been seven months since I saw this video and this cover is a still a regular bop on my playlist. Friends love it too :)
@@ObnoxiousNinja99 i am so happy to hear that, thank you 🙏 if you don't mind me mentioning, i just put out an original song in this style, perhaps you'd like that one too! Support from people like you really means the world 🙏
this makes me SO happy. it gives me such warm nostalgic feelings. I feel like it's 2008 again and I'm driving around in summer with my windows down feeling teenage feelings
That's exactly how the strokes make me feel too 🥰 I'm so happy to be able to give you that feeling!!! Ps. You can find this now on Spotify and Apple Music so you can add it to your summer driving playlist ~
A friend of mine showed me this song when I told him I liked As It Was from Harry Styles and I'm stunned at how accurate and amazing this cover is! Keep up the good work!
I love that when we think any song in Strokes style we always tend to think it more towards Is This It or Room On Fire. It’s always expected and it always feels good. btw the rhythm guitar at the bridge 00:34 kinda reminds me of “I can’t win” maybe?
I had this on my spotify discover and I was like "i didnt know The Strokes covered As it was" then I looked at the artist and was super confused. So now I stumble onto this video and it all makes so much more sense.
[Verse 1] Holdin' me back Gravity's holdin' me back I want you to hold out the palm of your hand Why don't we leave it at that? Nothin' to say When everything gets in the way Seems you cannot be replaced And I'm the one who will stay, oh-oh-oh [Chorus] In this world, it's just us You know it's not the same as it was In this world, it's just us You know it's not the same as it was As it was, as it was You know it's not the same [Verse 2] Answer the phone "Harry, you're no good alone Why are you sitting at home on the floor? What kind of pills are you on?" Ringin' the bell And nobody's coming to help Your daddy lives by himself He just wants to know that you're well, oh-oh-oh [Chorus] In this world, it's just us You know it's not the same as it was In this world, it's just us You know it's not the same as it was As it was, as it was You know it's not the same [Bridge] Go home, get ahead, light-speed internet I don't wanna talk about the way that it was Leave America, two kids follow her I don't wanna talk about who's doin' it first [Break] I don't, I don't want anything I know it's not, it's not your fault I don't want anyone As I do it's not for you [Outro] Ah, ah-ah-ah-ah Ah-ah, ooh, ooh As it was You know it's not the same as it was As it was, as it was You know it's not the same
This is AMAZING! I could have teared up with the bit of "Adults are Talking" toward the end :') You really encapsulated The Strokes, especially in the 'roles' of each guitar part
You know what i love the most about this cover? That the synthpop era of The Strokes (Angles, CM, TNA) is finally ACCEPTED BY FANS AND CRITICS! As much as i love the first 2 iconic garage lo-fi Stroke albums this new era (glossy production, arpeggiator synths, insane falsettos) speaks to my soul! Best thing I've heard in 2022! No joke, you are talented af! From your producing skills to the instrument/singing execution! Already hungry for more!!!
I've ALWAYS been a fan of Angles and CM since they came out (actually, CM dropped on my 17th bday 🥰), and i was absolutely pulling mostly from CM for this. The fact that so many people vibe with this makes my feel like "gotcha! See you do like CM, go listen again without bias 😹"
Had this recommended to me by Discover Weekly I nearly flipped shit when I started hearing The Adults Are Talking. Dude does an amazing job recreating the strokes’ aesthetic
That's amazing thank you so much for the kind words and support! I actually just released a full original song in this style, would mean the world if you'd check it out 🙏
Jeez. You're so talented! For a moment I've thought it was Julian's voice for real. I closed my eyes and I could picture The Strokes playing this on stage. You did an amazing job! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I've been listening to The Strokes and As It Was again and again for the past month and this feels like it was specifically designed for me. Thank you.
The UA-cam algorithm did me right when it shared one of your shorts! Holy smokes this is fire!!! I listened to this on repeat, trying to parse out of the band's key elements that of course you captured. Well done! Excited to learn and share!
I just heard the harry styles song this morning and immediately thought of the strokes so played a few of their songs. And wondered how cool would it for them to play this. And then I get recommend this. That’s why I love UA-cam. Thank you!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️
this genuinely made me so happy. i absolutely adore the strokes, they’re my all time favorite band and this was recommended to me and i could not be happier. this is soooo wonderfully done, it sounds absolutely amazing and your voice is perfect!
Dude, this is amazing. The first time i've listenned Harry Styles "As it was" i've thought that it sounds so indie. And also i imagined how could it sounds performed by an indie rock band like The Strokes! You made my humble thought come true. Thanks dude! Greetings from Argentina!
I appreciate that so very much!! Funny timing, i actually just released a song today that is very much in this style! You might enjoy that too, would mean a lot if you checked it out 🙏
I didn't know I needed this!!!! I can't believe how accurate it is. Became a huge strokes fan after seeing them live at lollapalooza this year and I've been a Harry styles fan since forever, its like my two worlds collided! Loved it. Please keep doing this❤️
I love the adults are talkiing verse/ TET because I think it was such a beutiful refrain at the end there and it works so creativly well here, I really appreciate it!!
I covered the original song with my band in college last semester and instantly fell in love with it, but also being a Strokes fan I have reason to love this song even more. Absolutely killer, man, I loved this
I don’t listen to Styles. Not because I have anything against him, it’s just that I am on old skool Indie lad from the early 2000’s and stuck in in my own little bubble…. I was doing some grocery shopping last week and heard this, and I was like who the hell is this? Has this strokes feel about it and I was impressed by who it was. And now here I am, listening to perhaps the most accurate video going on around 🤣… great work 👏🏽
@@bryandeleon9559 look at you with the ears 😏😏😏 in the prechorus, the guitar in the right is literally the i can't win riff. At the same time, the guitar in the left is playing an arpeggio with the exact same rhythm as the guitar in the better of between love and hate
Lets just say if you go to spotify/apple music/wherever you get music and look up “as it was matty greg” you might like what you find 😏
NO WAY
Maaaaaan thank you so much! I love this version ❤️

Sounds nothing like the strokes
why are you bitter @@DigitalDaffodil
@@teddyeatspudding about what?
This not sounding like the strokes?
@@DigitalDaffodil I wouldn't call it a one-to-one comparison, but the vibe is 100% there imo.
I'm really laughin' out loud at how ridiculously accurate this is.
It's like the sum of "Reptilia", "The Adults Are Talking" and A-Ha's "Take on Me".
well... and "As it Was"
Haha there’s a bit of hard to explain in there too
That’s how I’ve explained as it was to people lmao
@@masterfamclothingco And I would add "To Die in L.A." by Lower Dens
One way trigger ??
Fits so well because Strokes songs often sound "happy" melodically but the lyrics are more melancholy. Great work man!
@SweetChick10101 definitely one of the reasons I do as well
the verse of 'the adults are talking' in the end of the cover was WONDERFUL.
Had to throw in a little something for the homies~
amazing!!!!
And the backing track😭😭😭
you know the taste of your mouth
Its the bridge!

I just heard the Harry Styles version and was shocked by how much it already sounded like the strokes
The chord progression is Julian’s signature progression and the production is very New Abnormal like.
@@NotDingse what’s Julian’s signature chord progression? Would a signature sound be for the verse, chorus, or both?
Harry Styles is doing indie rock/pop since Fine Line
@@destroso both verse, chorus and bridge use the same chord progression.
@@NotDingse I’ll look it up and try to decipher it. Thanks
i saw them two days ago at a festival in berlin and julian was literally talking about this on stage
Wait WHAT? What did he say?
you cant leave him on a cliffhanger like that!!! WHAT DID JULIAN SAY???
Can’t believe that two years have passed since this comment was posted there’s still no answer..
3 year cliffhanger oh my god
not responding is crazy
this is AMAZING and at the same time so scarily accurate
Right omg I’m so thankful this exists
They did a small cover of this song last week in Lisbon at NOS Alive
2:24 the "Adults are talking" part really fit here and I think it was a great addition to the song
Ty 🥰 i just KNEW i had to throw something in for the strokes homies~
BRUUUUH THAT SHIT BRUUUUHHHHH
Especially considering Julian likes to throw variants of that line in different voidz songs as well!
@@mattygregmusic YESSSSS!!!! StroKEs HoMiEs foR liFEEEE
OMG YES I WAS THINKING THAT!!!
This totally reminds me of a lesser known strokes song called “Hawaii”, amazing production and sound my dude! This rocked my world and made me pick up my guitar again for the first time in a few years!
Tysm 🙏 inspiring someone to pick up their instrument is like the greatest compliment ever 🙏
YES HAWAII. I listen to both on repeat constantly 💕
Such a silly little song made by silly little people
This is great! Your voice in the verses sounds like a combination of Julian and early Alex Turner. Very cool!
I played this for my boyfriend and he said the same thing, came here to comment that 😂
Alex Turner just wanted to be one of the strokes... Same tho 👀👀👀
Aw my favorites yes true
It's a HEAVENLY COMBINATION!!!
@@Ebc888 what a great girlfriend holycoe. Lucky guy

Man, this was exactly what I wanted. The song screams 'New Abnormal'.
Would love to see both artists perform this together
I would pay a lot of money for that concert
You absolutely nailed it! UA-cam algorithm brought me here.
You really sounds like Julian. Congratz for that! Instruments sound very accurate too.
tysm! catch me making more covers and originals in this style v soon~
I forgot I wasn't listening to The Strokes by the end! This was so good
Same
that’s whaaattt!!! ugh saaaammmee🙌🏻😭
i like this more than the original. more dynamics with the vocals and the energy feels greater. good job dude
Agreed!
This actually just goes so hard. I need this to be a real thing.
It is now on Spotify and Apple Music 🎼🎶
Yo wtf hey

I wish he would have sang “Julz, you’re no good alone” but still a great what if cover.
This is so incredibly impressive. Not only sounds dead on like the strokes but still makes the song great.
So… my favorite band and my favorite solo artist. This is art, I’m crying.

[Verse 1]
Holdin' me back
Gravity's holdin' me back
I want you to hold out the palm of your hand
Why don't we leave it at that?
Nothin' to say
When everything gets in the way
Seems you cannot be replaced
And I'm the one who will stay, oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
In this world, it's just us
You know it's not the same as it was
In this world, it's just us
You know it's not the same as it was
As it was, as it was
You know it's not the same
[Verse 2]
Answer the phone
"Harry, you're no good alone
Why are you sitting at home on the floor?
What kind of pills are you on?"
Ringin' the bell
And nobody's coming to help
Your daddy lives by himself
He just wants to know that you're well, oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
In this world, it's just us
You know it's not the same as it was
In this world, it's just us
You know it's not the same as it was
As it was, as it was
You know it's not the same
[Bridge]
Go home, get ahead, light-speed internet
I don't wanna talk about the way that it was
Leave America, two kids follow her
I don't wanna talk about who's doin' it first
[Break]
I don't, I don't want anything
I know it's not, it's not your fault
I don't want anyone
As I do it's not for you
[Outro]
Ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah, ooh, ooh
As it was
You know it's not the same as it was
As it was, as it was
You know it's not the same
You know you've truly made it when ppl are posting the lyrics in your comments 😌😌😌

I don’t listen to Styles. Not because I have anything against him, it’s just that I am on old skool Indie lad from the early 2000’s and stuck in in my own little bubble…. I was doing some grocery shopping last week and heard this, and I was like who the hell is this? Has this strokes feel about it and I was impressed by who it was. And now here I am, listening to perhaps the most accurate video going on around 🤣… great work 👏🏽
God damn this is fantastic, love the TAAT bridge and the I Can't Win riff at 0:39
My friendo here catching all the easter eggs 😏
wait i can't win ?? how, where ??
I feel like I hear a between love and hate more than a I can’t win riff
@@shibabakery in the prechorus, the guitar in the right channel is literally playing the main riff to i can't win
@@bryandeleon9559 look at you with the ears 😏😏😏 in the prechorus, the guitar in the right is literally the i can't win riff. At the same time, the guitar in the left is playing an arpeggio with the exact same rhythm as the guitar in the better of between love and hate
YOU FUCKING NAILED IT, AMAZING!!!
better than the original change my mind
Turned a crappy song worth listening to. Strokes magic
and my mind just blew up
