THE STROKES LYRICS

  Lyrics - The Strokes Lyrics

 :: Biography
 :: Albums





The sound of The Strokes is the result of frantic living,
and the late nights and the early mornings they've spent
making their music in New York City. Their music makes you
want to forget who you are, and unlocks the possibilities
of what you might want to be.

The Strokes are five close friends who began assembling
together at the Music Building in New York City sometime in
1998 to lay down the foundations of a rock 'n roll band.
Together on stage at a Strokes show you will see and hear:
vocalist/songwriter Julian Casablancas delivering biting
lyrics, Fabrizio Moretti beating his drums with furious
precision, guitarist Albert Hammond Jr. moving smoothly on
his feet while his fingers effortlessly flow over his axe,
guitarist Nick Valensi with pick in hand tantali More...

    Review about The Strokes

        ------ About the song You Only Live Once performed by The Strokes

    Sometimes, God isn't always there.
    And I understand that some people can tell others that you just have to let him in your heart.
    And I kind of believe that's very true.
    But, bad things will always happen to good people, because shit happens and music will always be there, because music's the only thing that makes sense anymore. Everyone interprets things differently and this song is to me, a beautiful hymn with Jules' voice and the crazy guitar solo. It shatters my negative thoughts and makes me smile.

    And I'm pretty sure everyone else, can say the same damn thing and truly mean it.

        ------ About the song You Only Live Once performed by The Strokes

    hey dude,what philosophy?all the philosophy i see is that sometimes we talk to much,everybody is different and explains their feelings and emotions different. i.e "Oh, men don't notice what they got
    Oh, women think of that a lot...
    A thousand ways to please your man (oh-ho)
    Not even one requires a plan (I know)"
    meaning that if we listen to each other and comunicate in nice ways then we will all achieve a better social understanding and everything,dont get me wrong i am a christian and i what what ur feeling and dont get this as a diss or sumthing like dat i just wanna see what ur take on this song is.awesome song by the way!=p

        ------ About the song Ize of the World performed by The Strokes

    These guys just get it. They know how to convey their message perfectly. Definitely one of the greatest bands of all time, and you can't forget how beautiful the "Weezer-esque" guitar solo. Very Rivers-y. Love this song.

        ------ About the song You Only Live Once performed by The Strokes

    I find meaning in life because Christ has made me a new person by His forgiveness of my sins and sustaining grace. His love compels me to live in a way that is very contrary to this song. I cannot imagine now where I would be if I held to this song's philosophy.


    re: decent...plagerism | Reviewer: Dorian
        ------ About the song Electricityscape performed by The Strokes

    ummm...i don't think he's saying he literally took chords and lyrics from another song to make strokes songs. i think he's talking about a time when his writing was starting to suffer from drinking and drugs back during the making of "Room on Fire". i think he's retelling a kind of intervention that was attempted by the rest of the band back in '03. and someone is confronting him about his addictions and telling him his songs are starting to sound like everyone else's. because of his drug abuse he's dulling his creative senses. maybe? that's how i took it anyway. and then someone important to him probably told him he shouldn't let the band break up and just get sober instead because "you belong on the radio". and he agrees with them and says "i was just returning you a compliment" by writing this song.

        ------ About the song You Only Live Once performed by The Strokes

    this guy always plays his solos with the same style but i dunno why they don´t sound alike, and the voice rock´s, they rock!

    este tipo siempre toca los solos de sus canciones con el mismo estilo pero sabe como le hace para q suenen diferente y la voz esta bien chida, la neta son la onda...

        ------ About the song Ask Me Anything performed by The Strokes

    luke coleman. are you serious man? look at the title of the album and then look at the words. it points out the ridiculousness of everyday things. "hostile indians, we name our summer camps for you." if that was our first impression of earth it would be like wtf is wrong with these people...


    beautiful song | Reviewer: Luke Coleman
        ------ About the song Ask Me Anything performed by The Strokes

    This is a really beautiful song. I don't know if it has much meaning, but the structure and the pure cello (although it may be digital) puts me on the verge of tears. It is also a perfect balance for the album

        ------ About the song Hard To Explain performed by The Strokes

    hi everyone ! my names indie, and well, just an other hardcore indie fan, i love indieness, and indie people...and im all about the scene. the music nothing, these lyrics are shit. its what you look like.

    the strokes are all shit musicians, they just lookgood. and i love them all, in fact i'd bang em' all. and im a guy. but it would be in the name of indie. so thats ok.

    from indie,

    i love indie

        ------ About the song Modern Girls and Old Fashioned Men performed by The Strokes

    The music is almost trancing, and the vocals compliment each other endlessly.
    It's wonderful to review a song that isn't so mainstream and is so very expressive.
