I'm going to New York this summer for school and I can't wait. This will be the first song I'll play there. FINALLY i'm off to New York City! It's up to me now. Turn on the bright lights.
"I'm sick of spending these lonely nights, training myself not to car." that line couldn't relate to my life anymore then it has for the past few months.
Absoultelly mindblowing. Interpol music is unique. Atmosphere and intensity unparalleled. I ve had the privilege to have watched all of their London shows. For anyone who has not seen them yet live, my message to you is. Do not miss again!
"sad" and "happy" usually can be infused into a singular sound in music...this song really pumps me up toward the end and really takes me somewhere..it seems to end on a positive note.
By far the best song in that album, besides every other song, it just makes me smile I can listen to it anytime, Sleeping, gaming even in the middle of class when i should be listening to my teacher
The begining sound's so much like Atmosphere by Joy Division and the end too, so morbid, depressing, dark, gloomy,eerie even But put beautiful before each of those word's. They owe a lot to Joy Division and it show's on their debut Turn on the bright light's. Sheer , sheer genius here. 10/10
I thought i was the only one haha, walking down a long breezy road, just before the sun is setting, no cars on the road, no people walking, just your own self and ipod.
Kings of Leon and Interpol are playing live on the same night in my city. Imagine what a gutter that is. Unfortunately I already have KOL tickets and Followill-thirsty friends. I hope Paul will wait for me.. Good point about them being self-aware. They always look amazing. Their suits and shirts and ties, I love their look.
adore this band carlos doesnt really do anything here i luved him in untitled, most of all, but usually the bass has a voice in other songs i like the dirge quality in the interpol sound, very cool
Here's Daniel playing that Rickenbacker again, but I've never seen Paul's gold top either, it's classy by the way, also sam's drum kit in white.. never seen that one
when i first started listening to this, I was disgusted by all the imperfections in the lead singer's voice. Then I realized how desensitized electronic music has made us to the natural beauty of the human voice. Thank you for bringing me back from the Bieber-esque dark-side of contemporary music :)
@iBrA1MAN yeah, but thats cuz daniels casino got stolen while they toured for this, and i think carlos' bass is the same as always. he just put a black pickguard on it.
@aglaia2006 I first read this comment as Paul was singing the first line you wrote. Somehow, I don't know, hard to explaiin but it made everything different, like right. Thanks, Changed it for me. Thanks. (:
@intomock yeah i don't know what happened, i worked just fine before these videos screw up for a little while and then turn back to normal, i'm just gonna wait it out : )
Damn this song is so great. It puts you in a state of wonderful emotions. And they all look so cool playing it. I know this is crazy, but i'd totally go gay for the guys of Interpol lol
errr... well, it's actually a bell cymbal :) but if you're using drumming software will generally be classed as a bell hit (the bell is the raised center of the cymbal) of the ride cymbal. in reality this will produce a similar, but not identical, sound compared with the bell cymbal
they sound pratically the same live as they do on the studio versions. this just shows you how great of a band they are

How’s life treating you man after 13 years if u still have access to this account
That bassline never gets old.
"I know you've supported me for a long time; somehow I'm not impressed." Great lyric.
Interpol is so damn good. This song always takes me back some years anytime I hear it.
"I'm sick of spending these lonely nights, training myself not to car." that line couldn't relate to my life anymore then it has for the past few months.
Since this post, has your life changed?
This one showcases Sam's drumming brilliantly. And that's what it is. Top notch.
Pretty much one of my favourite bands ever. After all the times I've listened to NYC, it still gives me chills. :)
Absoultelly mindblowing. Interpol music is unique. Atmosphere and intensity unparalleled. I ve had the privilege to have watched all of their London shows. For anyone who has not seen them yet live, my message to you is. Do not miss again!
If these guys never write another song in their life this will always stand as their legacy. This song is simple and beautiful.
Favorite drum beat ever.
the last interpol song i fell in love with.. but now i cant stop listening to it.. it took me years to admire this great piece of work!
"It's up to me now, turn on the bright lights"
What a great song!
Gosh, that's cute! Paul's so young!
"sad" and "happy" usually can be infused into a singular sound in music...this song really pumps me up toward the end and really takes me somewhere..it seems to end on a positive note.
idk but i love the phrase "I'm sick of spending these lonely nights
Training myself not to care"
I love this album My fave is still antics but all three albums are awesome.
all time favorite version of the song.
love love love this song! such an amazing band!!!
"We´re Interpol and we're f***** awesome.."
By far the best song in that album, besides every other song, it just makes me smile I can listen to it anytime, Sleeping, gaming even in the middle of class when i should be listening to my teacher
a 10 años d q naciera este gran gran disco,d mis favoritos la neta no creo q ya tenga 10 añitos como pasa el tiempo carajo
i love how they always wear suits
I saw them last night in Cleveland and 3 weeks ago in London. They are such a terrific band. Stunning. Best current US band by a mile.

LOVE INTERPOL!!!....LOVE CARLOS...damn NO one can play bass like the way Carlos does!
I'm so completely in love with Dan Kessler
This is so great, love the way Carlos stands around doing nothing till the chorus.
wow. i never tire of listening to this song.
Una de las versiones más lindas que escuche❤
this song is so amazing it's inspired me to write a novel, which i am writing
wooow never seen that gold top paul.. it's realy cool also sam's drum kit looks great in white
love love love the bass!!!!

"It's Up To Me Now, Turn On The Bright Lights..."
i love this video, their attitude back then looks so different
theres not a better song in the world to listen to when your walking down street
Interpol is the best band around...this song puts me in a crazy ass mood
Sam is just incredible at drums
2:11 best drum beat ive heard in a long time
I could listen to this for hours. Literally ( I'm on hour three currently).
This is powerfull song!! It thrills me everytime i hear it
they should have played the whole damn album plus the b-sides.
pretty good performance of a great rainy day song
this song captures my experience in NYC 100% ...and why I hate and love this place so much
I thought i was the only one haha, walking down a long breezy road, just before the sun is setting, no cars on the road, no people walking, just your own self and ipod.
this is a wicked song i love it
All time epic tune! My surf trip soundtrack.
I would consider marriage if they'd perform for me on the day!
if you like this, you might like a song called "Ocean Rain" from Echo & the Bunnymen...You might like the band too...

Amazing song (Y) i know you soported me for long time
Ive met the drummer a couple times... Hes a cool guy. Sharp dresser.
Here's Daniel playing that Rickenbacker again, but I've never seen Paul's gold top either, it's classy by the way, also sam's drum kit in white.. never seen that one
The pride of Brooklyn. And New Yowk.

Yeah not even jail is one of my fav songs there but still my all time fav is "Public pervert"
Really the 1st time i see them with other instruments that are not the red Super Lucille,the black Les Paul and Carlo's full black Jazz Bass
sounds so fucking tight here
every instrument is spot on target
but whats with the glasses
diooo que bien sale Paul, que grupazoooo!!
Que canción tan grandiosa
awesome song...who's the keyboardist/backing vocalist?
do these guys have a newrecord coming out soon?
If you mean the backup singer, then yes. Yes he does.
would everyone quit singin the lyrics!
isn't this just lovely...
I like that interpretation
cancion favorita
@iBrA1MAN yeah, but thats cuz daniels casino got stolen while they toured for this, and i think carlos' bass is the same as always. he just put a black pickguard on it.
10 year old video.. cool, first that i see.
this is the sound
can you re-upload? its a shame that such a great version of this song is so messed up.
This song is just the perfect song for when you're staring right into your "partners" eyes.
theyre recording their 4th album
musta took a while.
and birds fly to survive and the wind only whispers sometimes.
interpol rules!!!
@azureamethyst I'm guessing you didn't take a lot of time processing.
La voz de Paul es la mejor!
Brounsiders
They are gods!
please i need to know! does anyone know what type/brand of glasses is Paul wearing here?
@aglaia2006 I first read this comment as Paul was singing the first line you wrote. Somehow, I don't know, hard to explaiin but it made everything different, like right. Thanks, Changed it for me. Thanks. (:
These guys... are artists, they don't need headphones
@intomock yeah i don't know what happened, i worked just fine before
these videos screw up for a little while and then turn back to normal, i'm just gonna wait it out : )
breaks me heart
Excelente!
Damn this song is so great. It puts you in a state of wonderful emotions. And they all look so cool playing it. I know this is crazy, but i'd totally go gay for the guys of Interpol lol
thanks, i'm on the second draft, if you want i can send you a part of it to read
that voice..
"crazy ass mood" LOL
errr... well, it's actually a bell cymbal :)
but if you're using drumming software will generally be classed as a bell hit (the bell is the raised center of the cymbal) of the ride cymbal. in reality this will produce a similar, but not identical, sound compared with the bell cymbal
You do Interpol no justice with that comment my friend.
look up to me now.. turn on the bright lights.. new york cares
good video
..dood...how long did it take you to type all that..like that??? ....and why???
=3
Bravo!!!
i love new york
@alltoohuman17 Joy Division , yeah, not so sure about Radiohead though!
Wow!
Not gloating, just saying, I got the same ones in gold with green lenses - they're Ray Bans, pretty easy to find!
i'm sick of spending these lonely nights training myself not to care..
