    Lyrics:
    I missed the last bus, I'll take the next train
    I'll try, but you see, it's hard to explain
    I say the right thing but act the wrong way
    I like it right here, but I cannot stay
    I'm watching TV, forget what I'm told
    Well, I am too young and they are too old
    The joke is on you, this place is a zoo
    You're right, it's true

    I started listening to them because a girl I liked in middle school had “The Strokes” written on her backpack in sharpie, so naturally I had to research and discover this awesome band. She never was interested in me but I was hooked with this band. Introduced them to my girlfriends there on after. So many memories, good and bad, with their music. I’m about to be 24 but those memories never fade when I put on one of their records.

    Was an honest man
    Asked me for the phone
    Tried to take control
    Oh, I don't see it that way
    I don't see it that way
    We shared some ideas
    All obsessed with fame
    Says we're all the same
    Oh, I don't see it that way
    I don't see it that way
    Raised in Carolina
    I'm not like that
    Tryin' to remind her
    When we go back
    I missed the last bus, I'll take the next train
    I'll try but you see, it's hard to explain
    I say the right thing, but act the wrong way
    I like it right here, but I cannot stay
    I watch the TV, forget what I'm told
    Well, I am too young, and they are too old
    The joke is on you, this place is a zoo
    You're right it's true
    He says he can't decide
    I shake my head to say
    Everything's just great
    Oh, I just can't remember
    I just can't remember
    Raised in Carolina
    She says, "I'm not like that"
    Tryin' to remind her
    When we go back
    I say the right thing, but act the wrong way
    I like it right here, but I cannot stay
    I watch the TV, forget what I'm told
    Well, I am too young, and they are too old
    Oh man, can't you see I'm nervous? So please
    Pretend to be nice, so I can be mean
    I missed the last bus, we'll take the next train
    I'll try but you see, it's hard to explain

      They are an incredibly easy band to like. Their songs are short and catchy and distinct, completely lacking in pretentiousness. Just straight forward great bangers, one after the other played by good looking guys who dress cool. If I had to come up with some bands who were great but hard to get into at first the Strokes would be about as far away from making that list as possible. What part of their sound, or image do you think turns people off at first?

    -The amazingly textured rhythm guitar
    -The hypnotic lead guitar
    -The passionately delivered vocals
    -The simple-yet-evocative lyrics

This song was there all the time, now its been like 7 years and eventhough those were fucked up years I can look at the past and feel happy about everything I went through. Whenever I listen to this song Im automatically transported to those beautiful, intense years of my life. Man this song is beautiful, life is fucking beautiful.

    Something about The Strokes on those first two albums... they were just one of those bands where their sound is like a total gestalt experience. To me personally the sound always embodied that of an intelligent 20-something going through something of an existential crisis and finding him/herself more and more disinterested in everything and drinking heavily to cope.

    This song is so meaningful to not only me, but mankind itself. It explains how we wake up everyday, work, invent new things, travel, explore, fight, have peace, and have a lover in our lives. The drums tell the beginning, the bass comes in and tells more, and then the guitars come in and lastly the singer tells the morale of the song. It may seem to be a little love song to people, but if you listen very closely, and you look at the pictures that go along, it is also showing Human accomplishments, culture, thrills, laughter, and things that we Humans can feel. And what is really amazing, is that we are the only known creatures to have feelings on not only this planet, but the explored universe so far. It is all really..........Hard To Explain.

      Logan SJ Those words I said come from a lot of experience of the song, this song is purposely trying to bring back nostalgia to old timers who lived in the 70's, 80's and 90's. I am only 14 3/4, but the reason why I love this song is not just the images or words, but the meaning of the song, as I stated before, it also lists out Human accomplishments and discoveries within the Human accomplishments. I know, this is coming from a kid on a computer who seems like a Sci-Fi nerd, but I am actually an Average Joe explaining the reasoning behind this very song, which is why...it is...Hard To Explain.

    Un verdadero himno, poco que decir. Ya perdí la cuenta de cuántas veces me levanté solo a poner esta canción y las otras cuantas que me dormí escuchándola. Además, acabo de enterarme que fue lanzada el mismo día de la muerte de mi madre, así que es aún más especial para mí

    Out of all Strokes songs this one makes me feel most nostalgic. I avoid listening to this when my iPod is on shuffle. It's not really a deep song but I don't know, I can never just lightly enjoy it.

      Dude I know EXACTLY how you feel. Nostalgic, not sad, Nostalgic. Its so weird, this song just makes me half happy and half sad, and the sadness is because of the nostalgia that is somehow created because of the song...its a powerful song man. I'm right their with you on the feeling of this song...

    I can't describe how much I love the strokes. Like, I also love other bands of the same general style like cage the elephant but the strokes are and always will be my favorite band.

    1:21. A truly remarkable chord progression for a Pre Chorus. The energy is insane and it sets up the rest of the song.
    One of the greatest pieces of music of all time. Painfully underrated.

    My favorite Strokes song. I think it really concentrates what I love about them into one song. The lofi elements, the rawness of the guitar, Julian's voice and lyrics. Such a classic.

    I first listened to this album in 6th grade when I was 11 years old.. I have never stopped listening to them. I’m about to be 22 this year and the amount of memories I’ve had with their music is crazy. Laughter, tears, anger, frustration, etc. I love this band. They are timeless.

    Yesterday my grandma passed to a better life, all the weekend I had this song in my head, reminds me every happy and sad times I had with her. She had a happy and large life 90 Years old we cried, laugh thanks for al grandma you from all the family and friends.

    Everytime I watch it I go through my memories, being a child and discovering things, the first girl that I fell in love with, my first kiss... My grandparents that are gone now, some people from my family that were important, the day that I almost lost my mom in the hospital, the day that my father almost left the house when I was 13 and I cried in front of him... my first serious relationship and all the mistakes that I committed and that eventually led to the end of it, and how much I still remember her.
    Even for a 3:50 minutes long music, it feels like an eternity when you listen to it over and over again, extremely nostalgic song.

      I really like that part too. I saw the movie where that clip comes from not too long ago. I just don't know for sure what movie it was. I'll try to find it.

      I think it's stock Boeing 747 footage, but I can't remember from where. I saw a lot of stuff I recognized tho.. A majority of the footage is from Brainstorm 1981, the Ferrari is from the opening of Magnum P.I., the tic-tac-toe from War Games '83, the fast film from Koyaanisqatsi '82.
