I was googling why are sundays so depressing as today is a Sunday and it feels so mundane as always. I happened to come across this song. I don't think Sunday will ever feel depressing anymore listening to this.😊
@@danielc2958 the fact that Bad Decisions sounds like Dancing by myself by Billy Idol doesnt really make it my favourite. It's the same melody I've heard before so I see it as the "worst"
They hopefully will probably win but those albums that are nominated alongside the strokes' new one are not too bad but the strokes definitely deserve a win for sure.
At 1:36 he says what I believe to be some of the hardest lyrics of expressing your love to someone and making it seem so real. He says “I love you in the morning, so you know it's no lie” and goes to show people believe to be at their worst in the morning and being able to still love them at their worst. I just think that’s amazing and beautiful lyrics.

Anyone else got chills while listening to the "I know"s sort of fading away, around 2:59 ? Idk how to describe it but Julian's voice and the guitar together... it´s like blissful sadness. I wish that part was longer, man.
I'm a new fan of The Strokes, I saw the hype around this album when it was released and I'm so glad I gave this album a try, it's one of the best albums I've heard and I just enjoy it more and more every time I listen to it. This is also my most favorite track out of the entire album, it's pure utopia when I listen to it envisioning myself in a Twin Peaks-like town's beach (or getting stranded in a self-sufficient island), the place is empty and I don't hear anything except the waves and this song playing on my old mp3 player.
My friend listen to Room on Fire and Is This It. I've been listening to these guys since I was 9...(i'm 22 now) these guys have got me through some of the toughest times in my life. I'm glad you are able to appreciate these guys, welcome.
welcome to the family! Maybe 2 years ago I heard last nite and someday and- for whatever reason- I didn’t explore them more even though I loved the songs. My best friend however was obsessed with them, so I listen to is this it in full in late 2020 and I was blown away. I’ve been obsessed with them for months and this album is genuinely a blessing.
Thanks Fab. My brother and my cousin took their lifes away some years ago. Every Sunday, I play this tune and those drums are what keep my heart beating to a tune. I got lot of things to do before leaving too, so I hope I can change my little world and help those around you. Miss you a lot Alejandro and Franchie... 😊❤❤❤❤❤
¿Habrán discusiones sobre cuál es el mejor álbum del año? ¿O mejor cantamos todos a coro cada una de las canciones de este? Canción tras canción, es genial.
Here's the lyrics !! I sing a song I paint a picture My baby's gone And I don't miss her Like a swan I don't miss swimming All my friends left And they don't miss me Can't take it, babe Your body talks to me Like in a movie, babe I let it resonate, yeah I want your time (Time, time) Don't ask me questions (Questions, questions) That you don't want (Want, want) The answers to (To, to) I love you in the morning, so you know it's no lie You're hiding in the background, but you wanna be found You've got me on my back and now I've gotta think fast You're hiding in the background, but you wanna be found I take it easy, babe, I I get down, it's automatic, I I've come to believe in that That too much time is evil I transition in I'm making your body wait Like on an aeroplane Please baby, take me away, yeah I want your time (Time, time) Don't ask me questions (Questions, questions) That you don't want (Want, want) The answers to (To, to) I know I know I know I know I kinda miss the nine to five, yeah Do those things that you can't hide I scramble, fight just like a child I'm staying hungry I'm staying hungry I'm staying hungry I'm staying hungry Not getting angry I'm staying hungry Not getting angry Still staying hungry, yeah Hold on, hold on, hold The click was always in you Fab It was never on It was never on
Letra en español: Cantar una canción Pintar un cuadro Mi bebé se fue Y no la extraño Como un cisne No extraño nadar Todos mis amigos se fueron Y ellos no me extrañan No puedo soportarlo bebé Tu cuerpo me habla Como en una película, bebé Lo dejé resonar Quiero tu tiempo No me hagas preguntas De las que no quieres Saber la respuesta Te amé en la mañana para que sepas que no es mentira Te estás escondiendo en el fondo pero quieres ser encontrada Me tienes de espaldas y ahora tengo que pensar rápido Te estás escondiendo en el fondo pero quieres ser encontrada Lo tomo con calma bebé Me calmo, es automático He llegado a creer en eso Que demasiado tiempo es malo Hago una transición Haciendo esperar a tu cuerpo Como en un avión Por favor bebé, llévame lejos Quiero tu tiempo No me hagas preguntas De las que no quieres Saber la respuesta Lo sé.. Como que extraño los 9 a 5 Haz esas cosas que no puedes esconder Lucho, peleo tal como un niño Me quedo con hambre (x4) Sin estar enojado Me quedo con hambre Sin estar enojado Sigo con hambre
I do not want to ruin your days, but it is "I love you and I'm honest." I also thought it was in the morning and really liked it that way. Sometimes I still hear it that way nonetheless.
Hahahaha "I don't wanna ruin your days", I loved it. Well, now that I listen to that again makes sense what u said. Anyway, I'll still thinking that says "I love u in the morning", that makes my heart dance. Thank u✨
a running theme with these new strokes songs ive notices is that the end is the best part. not in a "i dont like the song so when it ended i liked it" way, but in a way that towards the end they have this breakdown of the song where julian just pops off with new lyrics and it really tickles my soul in a good way
My absolute favourite part of this song is that 'wah wah' synth guitar sound at 0:57 and Julian's robotic voice singing 'I want your time'. Ugh love it
Sing a song Paint a picture My baby’s gone And I don’t miss her Like a swan I don’t miss swimming All my friends left And they don’t miss me Can’t take it babe Your body talks to me Like in a movie babe I let it resonate…yeah I want your time Don’t ask me questions That you don’t want The answers to I love you in the morning so you know it’s no lie You’re hiding in the background but you wanna be found You’ve got me on my back and now I’ve gotta think fast You’re hiding in the background but you wanna be found I take it easy babe I get down, it’s automatic I’ve come to believe in that That too much time is evil I transition in Making your body wait Like on an aeroplane Please baby take me away…yeah I want your time Don’t ask me questions That you don’t want The answer to I know… I kinda miss the 9 to 5, yeah Do those things that you can’t hide I scramble, fight just like a child I’m staying hungry I’m staying hungry I’m staying hungry I’m staying hungry Not getting angry I’m staying hungry Not getting angry Still staying hungry, yeah
Bad Decisions is a great song too. It depends on the person whether it's a "good" song or not. For example, I don't listen to all the songs on this album, but still love them
I think it's actually Nikolai who says "It was never on" the first time, in which case it's gotta be the first time Nikolai's voice is on a Strokes record :)
@@beatrizgaspar6697 The click track is an audio cue to help synchronize the different rhythmic parts, similar to a metronome. Drummers often use them when recording to keep a consistent beat, which is probably what they're referring to here I'd guess :)
Thank you for writing the best song to describe my sundays. I can't describe the sensations and the chills I get every time I listen to Julian''s voice synchronizing with the guitar solo. ❤
I just cant, i honestly cant stop listening to this new album and especially this song every single fucking day. What a fucking genius Julian. You deserve everything. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. :3

It's just a backbeat. Both songs are just a backbeat. You could play the easiest drum groove in the world at any tempo and it would just sound like "hard to explain sped up" or "slowed down." Matter of fact you could listen to like 90% of all songs in the world and the drums would be the same. It's just a backbeat.
