- "Chances" is one of our favourite songs by The Strokes. We liked all the different parts in the song just as much as we did the main melody, so we wanted to try singing the whole thing a cappella. We replaced the guitar and synth parts with different vocal effects; for the percussion we used our feet and vocal sounds. Choral arrangement by Rachel Santesso; recorded at Abbey Road Studios with Andrew Dudman.
Soloists: Grace Schneider, Chloe Healey, Emie Nathan
The strokes used your cover for their walk in concert when they were in Singapore. I remember straight away it was from you guys!!
i was at that concert such an awesome night, flew all the way from the philippines
It was beautiful
Thank you so much for letting us know- that’s so cool! Wish I could have been there…
I just got teary-eyed.
One of my favorite songs from my favorite band. This made me cry. Thank you.
Just watched this today, made my day!! GREAT JOB
great song, great voices, amazing!!
GREAT song choice, and AMAZING performance!!! Do more Strokes songs!!!!
You made me cry for hours ! Thanks you !!!
Pierre, from Paris.
I want to buy this version so bad :(
so relaxing
wow, this had me tearing up :')
really nice
awesome cover
Amazing .. O _ O !
Oh my god ❤️
I wonder if the strokes have seen this cover?
+Zan A They have, they tweeted about it
twitter.com/thestrokes/status/656169806580817920
I LOVE THIS! Is it for sale ???
This is Awesome!!! It rivals the mariachi version of "The Stranglers - Golden Brown"
Chances is a terrific ballad. One of the most underrated Strokes songs. Whoever picked this song out for the kids to cover is pretty damn hip.
Nailed it
The most impressive thing about this is that they were able to find out the lyrics.
1:49 The girl with the glasses,a future Dj right there.
cover of Human Sadness
skwe3d i hope they do too
I've been a fan of the Strokes since I was 12 and this made me cry to see how my favourite band reach a new generation is moving I don't know why
+Armordillo Gamer Btw I'm myself a Christian, I'm just not crazy religious.
Who ever the choir teacher is deserves a metal and a huge raise
I'm just waiting for the cover of Juicebox.
+Matt Eldridge And Human Sadness haha
+patmc96 A cover of Human Sadness by them would be so awesome.
Machu Picchu
The Strokes played this as an intro to their gig and it is hauntingly beautiful ❤
this comment, yasssss. omg, it is haunting me since. was looking for it after the show and here i am on repeat
I WAS THERE TOO IT GAVE ME GOOSEBUMPS
Pentaport?
THEY DID IT AT RED ROCKS TOO
And at All Points East festival in London yesterday 😊
This is why COMEDOWN MACHINE is the strokes most underrated album.
This is also why JULIAN CASABLANCAS is a lyrical genius(in the realms of cobain and lennon) . His ability to write a CONVERTIBLE song. Very rare that you have a song writer create a pop-rock song and have it read perfectly in a choir, country-folk.
The thing is he's been doing it for years.
This cover is incredible too.
+noize2040 Comedown Machine is so underrated it makes me sad :(
+noize2040 fab wrote this one, actually
Andrew D. fab doesn't even write lyrics.
These are totally Julians lyrics.
So the authorship credits for most songs from CM are as follows:
- Fabrizio Moretti, 1980- ; Citizenship: Italy. Authorship: music.
- Julian Casablancas, 1978- ; Citizenship: United States. Authorship: music, lyrics.
- Nicholas Valensi, 1981- ; Citizenship: United States. Authorship: music.
- Albert Hammond, Jr., 1980- ; Citizenship: United States. Authorship: music.
-Nikolai Fraiture, 1978- ; Citizenship: United States. Authorship: music.
look it up.
+noize2040 well, CM is and always be my favourite album from The Strokes. Tap Out, One Way Trigger, Slow Animals, 50 50, Happy Ending, Partners In Crime..... all of theam are very good songs. Don't know why but, almost all Strokes fans don't like it that much.
1:11 3:15 I wanna hear more of her voice 😭😭😭
I cried of happiness. The Strokes changed my life, this too.
This is what that Kid's Bop crap should do
honestly? no XD they wouldn't do it justice
Reece Crump I meant that kids bop should be full of renditions of songs like this. not turned into pop crap stuff lol
Can I just say that was one of the most magical strokes covers i have seen in a while, all of you were absolutely brilliant! The instrumentals you did with your voice were nothing short of spectacular and the singers were also completely brilliant. I have sent this link to julians manager hopefully jules will give it a listen I think he will love this great stuff keep up the good work kids this is fantastic :)
OK SO they freakin OPENED their red rocks concert (8/14/23) with this cover y’all i can die HAPPY
comedown machine 4everrr
These kids are freaking amazing. The soloists especially really moved me (nearly to tears). This is phenomenal, honestly unbelievable.
same. cannot watch this with dry eyes
Love to See the Kids growing up from video to Video ;) the Voice of the Girl in the Black Leather jacket is just amazing 😍
+HK Agreed ! Is she the soloist we can hear on the cover of Chinese, 6 years ago from now ?
3:15!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+Gustavo Arratia She's literally my favorite, so happy to see her featured everytime.
Just saw them at Red Rocks and this was the song they walked out to. When they were all on stage Julian goes “well that was cool as hell, should we even start?”
This shows 2 important things that everybody should be taught at school :
1° When you work hard, you can make incredible things. Whoever you are. Whatever your age.
2° The Strokes is (still) an f*** amazing melodic band.
Is it bad I really, really wanna see them just cover a bunch more Strokes songs? This cover's incredible!
+Corey McSwagger
Why would that be bad? This is amazing.
Well, I just don't see why it should matter whether or not the younger kids actively listen to the Strokes. Doesn't really affect the quality of their singing, you know?
Think of primary- and secondary-school theater performances. It's just a bunch of kids reading from a script that was written by someone else, let's say Shakespeare, in whom they might not have a whole lot of interest. But they enjoy acting, just as the kids in this choir enjoy singing, and some of them are very good at it. Surely you can appreciate that, even if THEY don't fully appreciate the artwork they're reproducing.
This brought me to tears. The Strokes are incredibly underrated.
I haven't been impressed in a while. This video just did it
Absolutely Beautiful! Julian would be proud.
I waited for ya
I waited for ya
I waited on ya
But now I don't
You didn't see it
I didn't see it
I didn't see it
But now, oh, I do
I play your game
I play your game
Now
I play your game
I play your game
I take my chances alone
Get on your horse and be gone
I will not wait up for you anymore
So you can ask me if something is wrong
Will you go?
I don't know anymore
When the night isn't ready for you
It's a feeling I know that dogs you
They invited a stewardess, too
Now they want you to see it
Here's to days he decides he's got time
And he claims that it's not a surprise
When he finds out the truth's on his side
I take my chances alone
Get on your horse and be gone
I will not wait up for you anymore
So you can ask me if something is wrong
Will you go?
I don't know anymore
I don't believe anyone
As they crawl out of my way
Waiting for the night
Leaving night by night
You can see me travel
We could be in trouble every night
We're having a new life
This is so beautiful! It's awesome to expose these young minds to the greatness that is The Strokes!! Amazing job everyone.
i wonder who inspired them to do this song? lol student or teacher? good taste in music as im sure this song isnt well known, compared to main stream music these days.
1:14 bro who knew natalie portman could sing
Tan melancólica y misteriosa como la original ...excelente cover de mi canción favorita de The strokes
3:15 O_O
Would be great to see more Strokes covers especially from their latest album but I'm thinking most of these kids have grown up now.
It's been 11 months, that's 10 months too long without a video!!
I finally found it! I was there during The Strokes’ Singapore day 2 show and they played this cover as they were all coming up the stage. This brought me to tears. Wow.
I just saw The Stokes at Red Rocks Amphitheater last night and they played this at the beginning and they came out on stage.
BEAUTIFUL! I've shared this with The Strokes community! ❤️🎶
This is the best thing I have seen in a long time. The girl at 2:16 stood out to me especially, so good! Then again, it's my favorite part of the song so maybe I'm biased.
Great job to the all the kids, and whoever arranged for this to happen. Such a great opportunity to introduce them to a great song and a great band, on top of honing their musical interests.
+SoaringMuse always in strokes vids, Soaring Muse
Hun Dolat ;)
Danny Of Philly Nice!! My third would be either Muse, Tame Impala, Vampire Weekend or Radiohead :)
We listen to all of the same bands. I like you.
Brianna Edwards Aww yisssss indie rock fans unite
Just from the intro thought it was going to be machu picchu
That little girl who sang some of the lyrics in the beginning blew my mind, wow! She has some talent!
I love the vibrato from the gal with the leather jacket. So smooth!! What a neat arrangement. Glad to see another generation of Strokes fans...though I'm sure the choral teacher must've been a teen in the early aughts and is introducing them all to it. This pleases me 🤗
"They invited a stewardess too,
Now they want you to see it"... lol. Not entirely appropriate, but i'm sure it's lost on them. Great performance of a great song.
1:09 THIS VOICE!!!?! 😭❤️
I have no ever seen something so perfect respect music, this isn't just music, this is a piece of art.
These children will remember this song forever, even when they will be old
Please cover the strokes new album 2020 The New Abnormal
It is so cute that the little lass in pink get to sing the highest parts because she is so little :)
i keep coming back to this GEM every other month
how fantastic !
This literally broke my heart today 💔 I've got the Comedown Machine CD for Christmas and Chances and One Way Trigger became my favourites. To see children making this song this way, with fairly melancholic lyrics for me at this moment broke my heart. Absolutely beautiful tribute. Julian should be broud. I mean children covering The Strokes, world has hope ❤️
Great, I can find more live performances of this song by CCC than by the Strokes themselves.
Pfff... ¡Está H-E-R-M-O-S-O! Son unos genios, qué genial les quedó ésta obra de arte
Lol you know the choir director is just a huge fan of the Strokes and he/she wanted to try something and these kids were so confused
The fact that The Strokes used this version as an opening for both concerts in Singapore recently
Korea too
sorry i was 7 years late. beautiful, just beautiful guys
This is one of my favorite strokes songs and was beautifully done, wonder if Julian and the rest of the Strokes heard this?
I think Albert replied to this video on Twitter years ago.. don’t know if it’s still up
they most defo did cuz they used this as their intro to recent concerts in singapore!!! 😭
@@humanoidtokita897is it this version?
4:16 Rachel?
Come back to this every 6 months, think it's my favourite musical arrangement of all time
Oh my God I thought I was the only "kid" (I'm 14) that actually knew the Strokes. They all sound so good, I'm really shocked
how are there only 500,000 views? ive watched this vid atleast that amount of times
I listen to all your tracks with my eyes closed and stereo headphones. you all take me out of this world. no pain while your art is playing.
Even the lyrics sites have it wrong. It's "When the night isn't ready for you, it's a FLEETING UNORTHODOX VIEW". Amazing cover though.
This made me very happy.
Go Rachel
Don't know if you could read this, but pls for the love of god do a cover Istant Crush or Human Sadness.
The girl in the black jacket might have one of the most beautiful voices in the world. it's so clear and beautiful
Link to The Strokes walking out to this cover at Red Rocks: th-cam.com/video/oZ8bSvNfWgU/w-d-xo.html
speechless. Gorgeous voices, the beauty of the art. I feel it deeply in my soul.

I’ve thought about this rendition 10 times at least and here I am listening again. Thank you for leading this generation to The Strokes and for allowing me to hear their music again for the first time. ❤️😎
The most impressive conclusion I draw here is that Julian has the same vocal reach of a elementary school girl 🏆❤️
Hey, he tried his best ok?
He did his best
best cover ever seen :')
Coming here after The Strokes concert here in Paris. They used this cover as the opening of the show! Amazing!
damn! good recommendation youtube
1:48 glasses is vibing LOVE IT
The Strokes incorporated audio snippets from this cover during their entrance at the Singapore concert.
:)... It’s like a group of angels. 👼
the guys should give more credit to this album. lots of great songs. fuck the critics. they should be proud for having such a robust body of work
I wish Julian would perform with this group of choir..
If you like The Strokes, check out
Ted Duchamp - Midnight Sun! Xx
I've never teared up during the rendering of a song til now. Absolutely majestic!
💚😍
Es lo mas perfecto que he escuchado en mi vida;-;
i just cant stop rewatching it....and its been a month or so now...its so comforting to the ears and at same time the lyrics naturally raises some disquietude...its brilliant
They played this cover for intro to my show! AMAZING I SHOUTED
This isnt one of the Strokes popular songs, but one of my favorites.... Cool
The ending is something you would hear walking through Lothlorien! Amazing stuff
That girl in the leather jacket has a really good voice
