- This is a rare, alternate lyrics version of the song 'Someday' by The Strokes. Personally, this version is just as great as the first, it is almost like a sister song. Artwork by Alex van der Colff.

Just imagine being in New York in 2000, in the Lower East Side of Manhatten and you're watching the strokes in the early days in a 1000 people capacity venue listening to this great music. I would do anything to experience that.
I would give anything to be the age i am now in the year 2001 to fully experience the strokes
omg you're so cruel
I was there. It was amazing. 9/11 had just happened. Everyone was stressed and freaked out. Then this music appeared. www.nytimes.com/2002/10/06/magazine/they-are-it.html
I would literally do anything!
I saw um in Brooklyn. Stumbled upon a bar (literally stumbled)and saw a flyer.
Damn. As much as I love Julian's signature nonchalant croon, it's so awesome to hear him sing so passionately on this version. Sounds like he's having the time of his life.
"oh it rains sometimes" is my favorite part
exactly
Play The Strokes discography at my funeral
got u
they are also on my funerary playlist.
at my funeral too
now way me too
I like the original. "My ex thinks I'm lacking in depth" is one of the most relatable lyrics I've ever heard.
for me it's "i'm working so i don't have to try..."
hits hard during a break up
Its “Maya” thinks I’m lacking in depth
Yeah it’s “maya” but I like to sing it as “my ex” too
I always thought it was a computer reference, Maya is a 3d modeling program.
@@theblackbadluck that tracks. julian famously dated a cgi compositer when he was in his early 20s. supposedly she showed him a project in maya and he was all like "flash actionscript is the future."
Oh you will be mine, Just not all the time.
How amazingly depressing. I love it.
I made art for this very lyric
What a beautiful lyric
Not depressing at all.
@@darkslivery-_-9096 where can i see it?
Most poetic line of all time
love how chaotic this is. the vocals are rough, there’s voice cracks, that “yeah” shouted over guitar
The lyrics for this song is seriously like one of those auditory illusions where people hear different things based on what word they're focusing on because no one can seem to agree on what the correct lyrics are. It's like a rorschach test for your ears
Yanny or laurel? XD
Wish the proper lyrics were easy to find
i think the lyrics here are pretty much improvised. it's kind of a skeleton of stuff julian wants to say but it isn't fully fleshed out since it's a demo
SOMEDAY HAS ALWAYS BEEN ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS melody-wise and hearing it with these different lyrics just makes my entire life worthwhile THIS IS AMAZING AND JULIAN IS SO PASSIONATE ABOUT THE LYRICS
if you listen to the growlers ,listen to the song someday , and compare it to the strokes someday it will leave you like "damn, so that's what would of happened ."
He really insists on being alright :D
You’re everywhere on strokes videos, can’t blame you though, I discovered them 9/2/19 and I wish I was exaggerating, really do but been listening to them everyday since, adore this band, it’s what I’ve always needed before I even knew it
8/28/20
life is sad
We all want to be alright
Kinda sounds like temp lyrics to fill out the melody before the actual lyrics were written.
Yep. Often that's how a demo works.
@@NCbassfishing24 I know that, I'm a musician myself.
@@TackyRackyComixNEO my dude still alive answering after 4 years
@@hakonhakon9002 alive, kickin', and barely making a livin'
@@TackyRackyComixNEO U fkn bum
the melodie at the end so SO fucking awesome
this version is better than the studio version to me, the vocals feel so loose and free
I’m still vibing to these songs. Strokes fan for life baby
heck yea
yo what happened to the vids of ur band on ur page haha
I feel your pain Julian
Ur a good man i feel urs bro
***** I feel all yours guys, hang in there
Tyler Edwards keep strong guys i feel you
Love u bro. Life is crazy
On some real shit this version is just as good as the reg
Well I won't sing
standing in the rain
Someday, I say someday
When all that's passed
I'll be sitting last
Somehow, it's now my fault
Oh it rains sometimes
but I stuck in the shops
Someday oh yea someday
You will be mine
Just not all the time
Someday, oh you see someday
Living all the time that was lost
You've lost a little, friend
Summer-spending all of my wealth
I will be alright
Modernly thought you can pretend:
"I'm gonna be alright"
Shouted from the middle of the night:
"I'm gonna be alright"
Is there something wrong?
I can't tell at all
Someday, I say someday
Well as I know, surely you will go
Someday, I say someday
Making up for time that was lost
I'm gonna be alright
Checked you out in the middle of the night
Yea I'm gonna be alright
I said man this fire is hard to relight
(I like it)-- I'm gonna be alright
But if it's meant, then it's him and you'll know
I said you're crazy
I said you're crazy
I said you're crazy
I said, oh shit
I ain't wasting no more time!
I don't know about the lyrics I found on the internet or in the other comments but here's what I heard after listening a couple times, though I think some of it is adlibbed, so maybe we're trying to futilely make complete sense out of Julian's stream of consciousness lol.
Thank you!!!!
The lyrics read like he had some ideas in his head and he was making the lyrics up as he went along a bit here, slowly developing the themes and vocal melodies. Really interesting to hear, McCartney did similar things on that Disney Doc where he just sings the first words he thinks with a melody and slowly fine tunes them.
Is it not “When I was sane/Standing in the rain”?
I've loved this version for 15 years almost...love almost more than the album version ..... .......... I always honour this versions chorus lyrics when playing Someday on guitar
from this came one of my favorite songs of all-time . . and now it's like I found the original raw director's cut of a classic movie . . except the final version is likely the "producer's cut" after cutting this down tremendously . . but this here should be recorded in studio quality. It's way more advanced
Don Wolfberg It’s actually the complete opposite. The studio version is the artists completed and perfected version. Every detail is analyzed. These demo versions and freestyles often do feel more raw though
@@danniel766 not really. It is the producer who has a lot of input into the recorded version. The producer polishes the artists ideas into a saleable product. It's produced to be commercially successful rather than be a raw artistic outpouring.
it's insane to see the progression of this song. Someday had always been one of my favourites, and I'm so glad I saw an article that directed me to this because is so good!! especially for a demo.
Julian just finds a way to make everything sound so bad ass, I'm jealous
OMG HOW HAVE I NEVER HEARD THIS BEFORE???? It's so raw and emotional ad amazing. LVOE
+SoaringMuse it's pretty awesome
Dude you commented on this video 3 years ago so you have heard it before.. 😂
Matched Betting SHIT I'M AN IDIOT
+SoaringMuse HAHAHA I just saw the comment too. "Maybe I listened to the real version too many times but I found this one REALLY refreshing and so raw because of the way he sang it (yes ofc it's because of the recording quality too). Thanks so much for the upload, amazing". Maybe you just forgot? lol
ryuukin178 T____T I really did... just went on a mini-retro-Strokes binge though, along with TIOLI and Last Nite haha. There's a cool little compilation fan-made album called Lost Treasures that's basically a bunch of Is This It demos. They're really really cool.
One of the best songs ever came out of this demo, and the demo is amazing aswell :) love the vocals here too
Lyrics:
Well I was sane, standing in the rain
Someday, I said someday
Well I got passed, I’ll be sitting last
Somehow, it’s now my fault
Oh it rains sometimes, but I stuck in the shops
Someday, oh yeah someday
Oh you will be mine, just not all the time
Someday, oh see someday
Living all the time I’ve been lost
Yeah that’s a little thing
Some of those things get all in my way
I wanna be alright
My only thought, you can pretend
I will not be alright
Try to go a little hard tonight
I’m gonna be alright
Is something wrong? I can’t tell at all
Someday, I said someday
Well as I know, darling you will go
Someday, oh I see someday, alright
Making up for time that was lost
I’m gonna be alright
Checked you out in the middle of the night
Yeah, I’m gonna be alright
I’m gonna try, this fire’s hard to relight
I’m gonna be alright
If it’s mixed, then it’s him, then you know
I say you’re crazy
I say you’re crazy
I say you’re crazy
I say- oh shit
I am wasting no more time
This is not a demo, this is them playing live and Julian just fucking around. He even said so himself that these aren't demos, but just them playing live.
+10199ULTRAMATIC yeah i think so too
wow . . you ruined it for me but it's still amazing
Do you know where you heard him say this? I've seen practically all of their interviews but I've never heard Julian say this. Thanks!
He says it in Landmark Music Festival 2015 after playing Someday.
This version was performed live at WFMU on December 21, 2000. I don't believe there is any recording of this song prior to that date, so while it *is* from a live performance I think it's fair to say that it's also an early version of the track, hence the different lyrics. Julian did tend to occasionally alter lines of songs in live performances, but that doesn't appear to be the case here.
Idk but this version is up there with the reg version to me! Love it
2:56 is PURE PASSION
I've always loved this version. "I'm gonna be alright" :)
Good job on the lyrics Saul Reyes. Posting below what I heard using your set up, wish this version was more popular and we knew for sure what Julian was saying lol.
Well I was sane
Standing in the rain
Someday, I say Someday
When all that passed
I'll be sitting last
Somehow, it's now my fault
Oh, it rains sometimes
But I stuck in the shops?
Someday, oh yeah someday
'you will be mine
Just not all the time
Someday, oh see Someday
Living all the time that I've lost
Oh that's a little thing
'some of those things get all in my way :)
I wanna be alright
My only thought, you can pretend
I wanna be alright
Try to go a little more, tonight
I'm gonna be alright
There's something wrong?
I can't tell at all
Someday, I said someday
Well, as I know
Darling you will go
Someday, I see someday
Alright!
Making up for time that was lost
I'm gonna be alright
Checked you out in the middle of the night
Yeah, I'm gonna be alright
I'm gonna douse that fire's hard to relight?
(I like it) I'm gonna be alright
But if it's mixed, then it's him
Then you know
I say you're crazy, I say you're crazy
I say you're crazy, I say ah, oh shit
I ain't wasting no more time
"I say you're crazy! I say you're crazy! I say you're crazy! I said..OH SHIT!" I love that!!!
Damn his vocals are amazing!
Hearing this always makes me feel better
I gotta be honest, I think this version is better than the original. Someone please make a lyrics video to this!
+TheAlbinoDude I might work on one!
a1exthegenius Nice
it's more intricate but this version wasn't made with mass consumers in mind. Still the version we all know is one of the greatest songs of our lifetime
Very cool version. Love to see how the song evolved.
This is so cute.
Ando escuchando las versiones demo de las canciones de The Strokes y son tan lindas!!!
Yo tambien
sounds more emotional this way. dig it hard
Thank you for uploading
Fab is so happy on his drums

I could listen to this tune all day without getting bored. This version is sick, happy but so sad !

So beautiful
Never heard this till now but wow this sounds so different. I’m glad we got the released version because this doesn’t hit the same as the released one.
Perfect!♥.♥ best version!
I don't like when people leave such comments but I really like this version more than original one

Amazing
Is it just me that likes this better than the released one? So fucking raw. Love it 🖤
والله مدري يامان الليركس هنا خايس احس مو راكب فاهم؟
you're not alone.
Are you people sure this is just a freestyle during a rehearsal?
This is from a radio segment from the 2000s before is this it officially released
1:09 the laugh
i wish they went with this version
There are a lot of erroneous lyrics on the web and on other youtube vids of this song. One person - I believe - had them mostly correct....Here are those with the few corrections needed...
Well I was saying standing in the rain
someday I said someday
well all that passed, i'll be set at last
somehow it's now my fault
Oh it rains sometimes but I stuck in the shots
someday, oh yeah, someday
you will be mine just not all the time
someday I said someday
You will be mine
Just not all the time
very good
:"C extraño estas epocas joder
me siento viejo, recuerdos de la secundaria :C
This song is great, greetings from Germany 2024.
Play this at my funeral.
I like
I wish I had this
that first line....wow
Julian can be off the fuckin wall sometimes
Cool
this is so freakin cute
I like this version more than the studio version. Its more "dirty" guitar sound or more garage.
Sounds a little more rough and i like it. Surprised Julian hasnt used parts of this demo in a live perfotmance though.
Any way for a Spotify release
Good
Yes, darling I’ll be alright 👍🏻
Oh you’ll be mine,
Just not all the time
;-;
can someone (someday...someday...) get the lyrics of this? please
I actually like this version better!
finalaso
Idk how I feel about this version lmao but it’s still nice
cont...
Living all the time i've been lost, yeah thats a little thing. Some of these things get all in my way, hahaha, I wanna be alright. My only thought you can pretend, I will not be alright. Try to blow a little harder tonight, I'm gonna be alright. Try to blow a little harder tonight, I'm gonna be alright. Now something wrong? I can't tell at all. Someday I said someday, well as I know, surely you will go, someday I see someday. Making up for time that was lost, Im gonna be alright
ALL THE TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIME
Aren't this is the video Julian mentioned when he's used to making the lyrics up for someday

Is it wrong that I like this better than the album version?

Dude, if this song dropped today. Only college radio would know. I h8 main stream more than everrr
I'm speak spanish :c what julian says in the song?
+Mati Zamora
Bueno, yo estaba en su sano
juicio, de pie bajo la lluvia
Algún día, me dijo un día
Bueno me pasé, voy a estar sentado último
De alguna manera, ahora es mi culpa
Oh llueve a veces, pero me ha quedado atascado
en las tiendas
Algún día, oh sí, algún día
Oh, usted será el mío, pero no todo el tiempo
Algún día, oh ver algún día
Vivir todo el tiempo que he estado perdido
Si, eso es una cosa pequeña
Algunas de esas cosas se ponen todos en mi
camino
Quiero estar bien
Mi único pensamiento, puede fingir
No voy a estar bien
Trate de ir un poco más duro esta noche
Estaré bien
¿Algo esta mal? No puedo decir nada
Algún día, me dijo un día
Bueno yo sé, querida irás
Algún día, oh veo algún día, bien
Recuperar el tiempo que se perdió
Estaré bien
Ha comprobado en el medio de la noche
Sí, voy a estar bien
Voy a intentar, de duro este fuego para volver
a encender
Estaré bien
Si se mezcla, entonces es él, entonces usted
sabe
Digo que estás loco
Digo que estás loco
Digo que estás loco
Thanks1^-^

Is that a voice crack at 1:42?
Mephis Fenstalig idk but it sounds soooo good.
Si
oui
Here is my favorite alt version. I like the change at the end.
/watch?v=tZIugCjIhWs
How goods this?....x
I love the raw energy and the melody of this demo but that lyrics are shit compared to the established version 😂. Same as the raw demo of hard to explain. The lyrics to the proper version are what makes the song for me. "When we was young oh man did we have fun, always, always" "You say you wanna stay by my side, darling your heads not right" being two of my fav lines that at some point in my life have had a profound meaning to me... Well the whole song means so much to me... Someday and Hard to explain are miles clear my 2 favourite songs of all time equally
some of these lines are cool tho too if im hearing them correctly
Hey how much can you get me a scarlet and a lighting package for? Preferably with EF mount
I'll e-mail you later today. More likely to get you an epic rather than scarlet.
It's just for a music video not shooting 4k
RED ONE's available! lol. Get it to you cheap. What about BlackMagic One's too old school? Have rental connection for it, but it's on the higher side. . .
*if the ONE's too old school?
no comments for two weeks?
Don Wolfberg how many times are u gonna comment don
