They were just trying to have fun, they love The Strokes, and The Strokes love them, so everyone needs to calm down. Yes, it's not as good as the original, who cares. I hate people comparing them, their two completely different bands!
As good as the original? This is far better than the original . The strokes performance makes me want to sleep and this one makes me want to jump like a kid . I just wish the sound quality of this video was better
Leave it to Alex to be able to sing and play the chorus at the same time. This song actually would've been good Arctic Monkeys cover as it suits his voice.
He’s just playing the little hooky riff that takes you into the chorus, not Albert Hammond jr.’s solo, most intermediate guitarists could probably do it.
@aaronmarchant92 It's a cover of Reptilia by The Strokes, and the band Alex is playing with is called Lightspeed Champion. And I'm pretty sure it was between their first and second record. It's also at White Heat.
@domg2hotmailcouk yeah i think it was lightspeed champions gig and him and alex are mates so alex came on, its the bassist and drummer from the rascals too
the irony of Alex's strokes obsession is that arctic monkeys are now a bigger band than the strokes....also I'm not diluting the strokes massiveness in music...but AM is 100% bigger now
@@dalia.amanecer3084 that doesn't matter the strokes inspired way more bands the artic monkeys wouldn't even be a band if the strokes didn't exist that makes the strokes more popular
@TheArcticMonkeyz nah this was part of lightspeed champion's album launch (see the dude with the hat, quite far back). his album was out like 2007 was it? or 2008.
week1productions You mustn't have really seen Alex Turner in action at all over the past 5 years or so.... If there's anything that's apparent, he literally behaves as though he puts no effort into anything beyond lyricism and vocals (rock music in general), or intellectual conversation on the rare occasion an interviewer is engaging and on his level enough to stimulate worthwhile and substantial dialogue from this brilliant artist's mind. But generally, the only way you could possibly comprehend him as putting forth much effort or literally trying at all, really, physically or otherwise, would be if you haven't actually studied him much at all..... That or you're just a hater for whatever reason, and using the ole generic go-to "trying to hard" dis because you've got nothing of actual substance to better nay-say him about and you just can't help yourself. Maybe you should take a page out of his book and "try too hard" too; might turn out to be one of the premier rock geniuses in music HISTORY, just as he did. If I showed his behavior as recorded to 10 people who've never heard of or seen Alex Turner before, 9/10, if not all 10, would say "This dude acts as though he could give a fuck less about anything and is putting forth hardly any effort, whatsoever." Get real man.
the strokes are one of my favorite bands but they should have just given this song to arctic monkeys after this like trent reznor gave hurt to johnny cash. like that's his song now
Alex is such a strokes fanboy
Aren't we all
Me too!
Would soo love to have a decently recorded copy of The Monkeys doing this brilliant cover.
Omg look we have the same profile picture

been waiting for that one
now look at the mess you made me make

this is so damn fast that the reptilian turned into a dinosaur.

@@joaovitorsouza3025 Julian’s voice is far better for this song than Alex’s to be fucking honest. These guys just going at 300 mph
@@leoam6676 they have different styles of course it’s not gonna be the same as the original
@@leoam6676 LOL alex turner is and forever will be my favorite artist, but I did check the playback speed to make sure its not fast forward
@@joaovitorsouza3025 lmaooooo this is not better than the original. I love Am but that’s a dumb take 💀
They are both incredibly awesome, talented and icons. You just not compare them. I love both bands I do not know what's the problem.
Well, he was actually two of the strokes here lol (Julian’s vocal, Nick’s guitar line)
Watching this makes me want to be in a band.
Tal cual
Even If you didn't in all these years there's still time. DO IT !
I know they like to perform faster live, but god damn!
lol :):):):)
now they do the exact opposite

he’s just playing the rhythm on the chorus not Hammond’s lead

gosh its so weird to see him addressed as lightspeed champion now. blood orange is his new name and he still continues to make such great music!

i always come back here 😂😂
They look like they are enjoying themselves tbh.
Alex just wanted to be one of the strokes
Te amo Alex
14 años y este video sigue siendo epicazo
i love him
Watching this in 2020 makes me feel old. 😂😂
the strokes baby
underrated video
I don’t really blame Alex for covering this song if i could I would cover this
this is a beaut.
@aaronmarchant92 he's playing with
lightspeed champion and i think the
bassist from the rascals
@domg2hotmailcouk yeah i think it was lightspeed champions gig and him and alex are mates so alex came on, its the bassist and drummer from the rascals too
Dev Hynes (another musical genius) is also there.
Genial

HOLY SHIT THIS IS GOOD
Wtf ví hace tiempo esto sin saber quién era Alex solo buscando covers de the strokes

He still is, just a different style
