I've always thought about what The Strokes should cover from Arctic Monkeys and honestly I could see The Strokes playing a good tune out of When the Sun Goes Down. The first part would be a great melody for Julian to sing to and the song turns into a more aggressive punch which fits their style. Add Julian's raspy vocals similar to Reptilia and I think it'd be perfect.
My heart was filled with a glow, ... I mean, by your thought. Can you imagine? JC singing I bet you look good OMFG, it would be something! I'm going to daydream about it now, thank you.
This is such a great cover. This song’s tempo can be a struggle and they nailed it. Alex is at his finest vocally. Another fantastic cover by them, like every cover they’ve done.
It's not, I am not sure what the dude meant, the hard part is the intensity yet detachment of the vocal. And I am not a fan of the way Turner sings it, sounds like he only push the detachment feeling.
I was just telling someone that Tranquility Base is largely influenced by his sound that he has taken on since he was doing work with Miles and TLSP in between this album and AM.
This was absolutely amazing to see live. I cried...it was embarrassing and my friend was confused as to why I was crying bc I dragged her to the concert with me and she doesn’t listen to Arctic or the Strokes, but like, for a huge indie rock fan this was amazing.
saw this live and i love you so much for recording this, i was in too much shock to pull my phone out, last thing i was expecting was a strokes cover..THANK YOU
Sometimes when I watch these type of videos a think to myself “damn I wish I had been there!”...it’s such a great feeling to finally be able to say “I was actually there!”

Is This Just ME, or does Alex really get funnier by the year!? I mean, these moves and faces here - I can't watch with a straight face and I love it XD
Because Alex is trying WAY too hard. He sounds like a second-rate Bono wannabe singing this. What made Julian so great is that it seemed like he wasn't trying at all. Alex is just way too forced.
Como cuando querías ser uno de The Strokes así que convences a tu banda para que te cumpla el sueño :'D Increíble el cover por cierto, la hiceron suya... Los amo
OMG!! Thank you for posting this. I'd been broke for weeks and cussing that I couldn't get a ticket for this show. I'm no longer broke and now I've a sample of what I missed last night. Much love to you!

i know, ive listened to the voidz album and i liked it a lot also i listened to the album albert released and i liked it too, i just want new music by the strokes, we were teased with 3 songs in 2016 and that was it, we need more, we need an album
Great cover, Alex. Your other Strokes' covers were also pretty awesome (Take it or Leave It & Reptilia). How about another...try another slow song like "Evening Sun" or Life is Simple in the Moonlight" . Yo bro, you should join the Strokes.
I love that the fans knew right from the opening drum beat what song it was.
Iconic music.
Lol I really doubt they knew it was is this at the first second. They were just cheering cause they started to play another song
Black Phoenix 89 they knew it cause everyone knows that alex is the biggest strokes’ fan💗

Supersonic oasis bitch please
Yeah because NYC
Dat Ben 10 outfit tho
Haha lol
I love this comment.
Hahaha yup
Had to remove my like from months ago because the count was 421. Ain’t happening on my shift.
They couldn't think of a "Tennyson"
He just want to be one of The Strokes...
Alex is the most romantic man of universe
Ahh you son of a bitch you beat me to it.
To be fair he could replace Julian since he doesn't seem to want to be one anymore.
We all want
Now look at the mess you made him make
I'd rather be the 7th Void.
Would love to see The Strokes singing 505
I can totally see them doing that. Julian has a voice for it
@@redmoon9650 julian has a voice for everything
505 would be INCREDIBLE for Strokes to cover.
Fuck, what a nice idea
*"Dear Jules, I wrote you but you still ain't calling, I left my cell, my pager & my home phone at the bottom..."*
I sent two letters back in autumn, you must not-a got 'em
There probably was a problem at the post office or something
fifth of Kool-Aid huh
barack obama ?
Dear Alex, I meant to write you sooner but I just been busy
You said your girlfriend's pregnant now, how far along is she?
stan
Alex is the biggest Strokes fanboy there is ♡
Now look at the mess you made me make
I love Alex and Julian too
"I just wanted to be one of The Strokes"
Brandon Flowers might be an even bigger fanboy honestly
bggc71196 we are on the same boat
I hope people realizes how much this is iconic
this makes my heart smile
One of my favorite bands covering one of my favorite bands. My life is complete
Lermaniac & Seetizen they've covered them numerous times :D my favorite is baby Alex doing take it or leave it
Lermaniac & Seetizen same
@@danied09 that was a cute performance
They covered Reptilia too, you should check it
I love this so much . I can't even explain how much .. Its like.. Hard to Explain

Lol, Julian doesn't even know his own lyrics to the songs half the time 😭 sometimes I can't tell if he's doing it on purpose or if he messed up
Julian Casablancas should sing Fluorescent adolescent or I bet you look on The dancefloor
I've always thought about what The Strokes should cover from Arctic Monkeys and honestly I could see The Strokes playing a good tune out of When the Sun Goes Down.

My heart was filled with a glow, ... I mean, by your thought.
Can you imagine?
JC singing I bet you look good OMFG, it would be something!
I'm going to daydream about it now, thank you.
JC doesn't give a fuck about indie rock
Me: Mom, can we get some Julian Casablancas?
Mom: No, we have Julian Casablancas at home.
Julian Casablancas at home:
i’ll take it
i'll be more than happy to take him
AHAHAHA
AHAHAHA
That’s actually a win... the golden boy is in bad shape :p
Dudes been waiting his whole career to do this
This is such a great cover. This song’s tempo can be a struggle and they nailed it. Alex is at his finest vocally. Another fantastic cover by them, like every cover they’ve done.

It's not, I am not sure what the dude meant, the hard part is the intensity yet detachment of the vocal. And I am not a fan of the way Turner sings it, sounds like he only push the detachment feeling.

Alex: I just wanted to be one of The Strokes
Me: I just wanted to be one of The Arctic Monkeys :')
I just wanted to write this post for you :v
Ikr
You know, several days back Julian kinda quoted you.
Now he just wanted a jet ski for the moat :(
Shaved head and fred perry top...must be Miles Kane!
Eve Hartwell He probably had to call Miles just inquire how to pull off this haircut!
He actually preformed with miles at the concert in greece in july 6th
I was just telling someone that Tranquility Base is largely influenced by his sound that he has taken on since he was doing work with Miles and TLSP in between this album and AM.
that shirt is from the miles kane collection as well
I love the way Alex holds the microphone when he is going to start singing. It's delightful
*eleven SNAPPED*
OMG HAHAHAHHAHA
Ladies & gents, we've finally come full circle.
This was absolutely amazing to see live. I cried...it was embarrassing and my friend was confused as to why I was crying bc I dragged her to the concert with me and she doesn’t listen to Arctic or the Strokes, but like, for a huge indie rock fan this was amazing.
Pretty funny since he sang it right after star treatment. Awesome cover nonetheless.
I just wanted to be one of the strokes
Is that the guy from the movie Split??
faqqar assaffal yes
is this split?
faqqar assaffal No, this is Alex Turner. And in Split plays James McAvoy. Not sure whether he’s singing at all.
Trainspotting
Frank Hall lol
a lot has happened in the last couple of days oof
mariana omg yes a lot sure has happened hasn't it (ps: it's lorenzo arcticmunkeez)
And I fucking adore it
Anything else but him shaving his head?
BananaTheFancy yes this one performance eheh

awwwww im crying
And is this what you wanted
saw this live and i love you so much for recording this, i was in too much shock to pull my phone out, last thing i was expecting was a strokes cover..THANK YOU
What I love is that everyone (or at least the vocal ones) instantly knew what they were playing as soon as Helders played the beginning drum pattern
Louisse Lopez That's because everyone in line who was there early heard them sound check it. Word travels fast online and in line. 😉
he just wanted to be one of The Strokes
you are incredibly lucky!!
:)
Lit. Wished the bass cut through more, that bassline is legendary

THE STROKES RETURN PLEASE AND MAKE A MUSIC WITH ARCTIC
Yes!!!
Julian is with The Voidz if that works for you
They wont do that.
Julian is doing a great job with the voidz, as well as Albert H as soloist
Dario Altamirano coming together would be even better after learning new things from their separate projects.
ew, no
I LOVE YOU BALDIE
ME TOO, no homo
ultracheese in the sky oh I really like your icon. Where did you find it?
so mad i didn’t find this sooner, he killed this.
i’m grinning and tearing up this makes me so unbelievably happy for him
He actually looks really good with a shaved head
A.M Lash true very best than long hair
I thought he was Chester at first
A.M Lash in fact that was what I just thought when I played it
Wasn't sure if it should be said. Kinda relieved tbh.
Looks like Eminem lol
I've watched this so many times and can't get enough of it
The crossover episode none of us deserved
he even does the “holding the mic with two hands” thing just like Julian 💕
When your favorite band covers your favorite band❤️
he starts standing just like julian always stands when he starts singing
talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique
Veronica Zanchi is this a reference to that one Lady Gaga vid haha
Yeah, Julián is all that you're absolutely right
[Verse 1]
Can't you see I'm trying? I don't even like it

two of my favorite bands I'm literally melting lol
Awesome video now one of their great moments
joemb98 thank you 😊
i love the way he sings, he has such a sexy voice.
Didn’t know I needed this cover until just now
I don't know why The Strokes fans hated this?
I love both bands and I loved this cover.
no way, any real strokes fan would’ve appreciated this cover
@@uyentran1234 I love the strokes with all of my heart but i don't think it's gonna hurt anyone if there were covers of this song lmao
Because Alex is trying WAY too hard. He sounds like a second-rate Bono wannabe singing this. What made Julian so great is that it seemed like he wasn't trying at all. Alex is just way too forced.
Alex is singing this song in the exact same way he sings every other song (both his own and covers he does). Nothing's forced.
i've never been happier to hear a cover
En internet hay muchos momentos épicos, considero que este es uno de ellos. :'D
it's nearly been a year and i still can't stop watching this
Que voz más hermosa que tiene este hombre ❤
At the beginning he says “Since we couldn’t think of a Tennis song...”
I love that band too!
“Never to part” would be my favorite
Yo estuve ahí, y esa es mi canción favorita ever! Fue como el destino 😍
one of his best introductions ever
Anthologic, grettings from Brazil ; )
Renan José eh nóis!
tamo aí
Renan José Brasil sempre
I didn’t know I’ve been needing this my whole life. One of my all time favorite bands covering another of my all time favorites.
Love this this guy
I WAITED MY WHOLE LIFE FOR THIS
Estaba haciendo su sueño realidad
I passed out 3 times at the moment Matt started to play the song
No puedo de amor!! Se rapó!!😍
thank god this existed as i think this is responsible for summoning a strokes comeback in 2019
Como cuando querías ser uno de The Strokes así que convences a tu banda para que te cumpla el sueño :'D
Increíble el cover por cierto, la hiceron suya... Los amo

Ya antes habían tocado reptilia cuando el acné se apoderaba de su hermoso rostro ♥️(o sea cuando eran unos niños) siempre han Sido fan de los Strokes
The BLACK bucket show! En otra ocasión tocaron Take it or Leave it
He has such amazing control of his voice
We need a cover of the whole album.

Claudia Silva Omg stop 😂😂😂
Matt did so amazing here!!
they really did THAT god i wish i was there... anyway i hope this can summon the strokes so they can get back together and make new music
Julian has a new band if you're not aware. A new album came out either this year or last I believe.
i know, ive listened to the voidz album and i liked it a lot also i listened to the album albert released and i liked it too, i just want new music by the strokes, we were teased with 3 songs in 2016 and that was it, we need more, we need an album
In 24hs I'm only a day older but this guy gets his head shaved and then he makes an strokes cover in a gig. Cool.
La grabación se escucha muy bien.
I wish I could have witnessed this everyone in there is so blessed!!!!!!
Ele parece ta muito feliz cantando essa musica 😊
Absolutely LOVE it....

that too, of course lol
