LYRICS

Talk to me now I'm older
You're friend told you 'cause I told her
Friday nights have been lonely
Change your plans and then phone me

We could go and get 40's
Fuck goin' to that party
Oh really, you're folks are away now?
Alright, lets go, you convinced me

12:51 is the time my voice
Found the words I sought
Is it this stage I want?

The world is shutting out for us
We were tense for sure
But we was confident

Kiss me now that I'm older
I won't try to control you
Friday nights have been lonely
Take it slow but don't warn me

We would go and get 40's
Then wed go to some party
Oh really your folks are away now?
Alright I'm coming
I'll be right there

MILENARIA R&R

¡GRACIAS!

Bruce Michael Grossman

I remember in high school, introducing my crush to the strokes. I bought her their first two albums, and I was so excited to give them to her. Then she said, "Before I take these, I wanted to tell you I have a boyfriend. That's okay, right?" Fuck, you should've seen my face. That started one of the most bizarre and endearing friendships I've ever had. Miss you, Gissel!

ABnanda

@Giselle im going to tempelhof berlin in june to see strokes and muse, wanna join?

Randy Torres

@Giselle wait.. youre not THE giselle OP was talking about are you?

Cato the Elder

@Giselle Music is the best and worst thing ever. It can take you back to both the best and worst times.

gino tedeschi

Razorblade

@boi-august I agree with you, because as some who has stolen a girl, I hated myself for it. The relationship ended up being horrible for both of us because I dwelled on the fact that I had stolen someone’s happiness.

After all these years it’s impossible to understate just how good those first two strokes albums were

Andrew Wells

Everyone knows what you mean but it’s more like impossible to overstate since then you’re saying no praise is too high, that there aren’t words to describe how great a thing really is (I was in 9th grade and bought is this it the day it finally came out here so I agree)

Skar

the new abnormal is amazing too but is this it and room on fire really have something special

Take12music

I've been into these songs for 20 years now. That's the power of good music!

Korsarz

I prefer the new abnormal, but room on fire is insane

Thing Trece

Esta cancion su letra me llega al alma ahora que tengo 40 años

bladees hot gf

It’s criminal how short this song is

Bradley Davis

Nah man, it’s perfect. I’ve played this song so many times whenever I catch the clock at 12:51. If it were any longer, I might’ve grown tired of it

Nabh Chandra

no its good, cuz the short length makes it v easy on the ears. i can listen to this song anytime, anywhere no matter how my mood is

JOEYWHO

Maybe that’s why I listen to it over and over

L F

True!!

Argie

Bro it's almost 13 minutes long

Michael Isabella

The Strokes... simple but effective.

GianniOmarStore

This is that album that you inadvertently come across when something is changing in your life . Someway, somehow, you find it . You listen to it over and over again, and from that point on, it becomes the music you're familiar with when your whole life became something you didn't recognize - FJOSE #FOREVERTHESTROKES

N Kita

It’s true

Masked Destruction

You just described how I’m feeling about life right now

sosuke kurosaki98

Or you just smoking up flipping thru YouTube

Fredrick VonHuzen

Yes indeed

Fabíula Paulo de Freitas Manhães

YES!

b. carolina fonseca icabalzeta

En 2020 viendo esto y pensando que hemos crecido, ellos y yo... y no tienen un tiempo específico, Los Strokes suenan buen en cualquier momento 🤙🏿

Javier Rivas

Los amo Strokes, gracias por existir ❤

brahby

I’m still blown away by how well they nailed the Tron aesthetic.

brahby

@bettahetta the original one?

Josué Salazar

Me atrevo a decir que The Strokes es una de las próximas leyendas del rock

Diego Jafett

@pp Mejor calla y escucha estás bellas canciones para que entiendas que es el Rock.

Lecter Hannibal

@pp nunca habrá generación con estas, que mala generación tenemos

Alexandra Amayo

Ya pasaron a la historia como la banda que salvo el rock en el siglo XXI

Josué Salazar

@pp Corre niño,te habla tu mamá!

Órbitas órbitas

woaaaaa toda mi adolescencia recordada en una canción, grande The strokes, era mi canción favorita como a los 16 años jajajaj ❤

SBakerNYC

Been revisiting the strokes entire catalogue last few months... the first 2 albums are basically flawless. Their newest album is also incredible... they're relatively young for a band that's been around 21+ years... wish they didn't have such big spans of inactivity would have loved for them to have made another 2 or 3 albums

West Buer

This song makes me say "Emm life isn't all that bad"

tyguy2936

This song was the song that made me want to learn how to play guitar

Cg O51

@manjac shush

manjac

This indie band called The Impures has this cool song out called THREATS

SlimeSquishSisies Lopez

these guys are so underrated ☹️

kowalityjesus

Can you imagine how cool these guys were to party with?

SBakerNYC

Before I started even listening to them like that, I saw them in a bar. It was around the time this came out. 1st semester of sophomore year of college. My dorms were on 25th St and 1st Ave. We used to hang out in LES. Was at some bar down there and Julian and Albert were at the other end having beers. I knew their radio hits. But my friend was a huge fan and was fanboying out hard. Later found out he was gay so was prolly even more excited than I realized at the time lol... wish I was as big a fan then as I am now eoulda appreciated the moment a little more

miguel ingles serrano

i am physically disabled by a car accident 18 years ago since then, music is my support, thanks:-)

MrBloodlust3996

Love u bro

miguel ingles serrano

@Zhang Purnama gracias

miguel ingles serrano

@vincent billings yo creo que si tan bien hay bandas o grupos musicales de clase b que son muy buenas pero prefieren ser independientes a ser atrapados por las grandes discograficas pierden en ser famosos pero ganan en ir a su bola sin tener que hacer lo que le mandan otros es mi opinion y ejemplos tenemos a los britanicos alien sex fiend entre mucho otros

miguel ingles serrano

@Alexis M gracias

miguel ingles serrano

@Eldon Hill gracias

LORÃO 007

É tão bom... como se a música te levasse de volta pra um tempo bom que já foi embora...sz

DJ A-BOMB

This needs to be a Motion Picture Musical.

Apuspeak

Childhood memory unlocked. My older brother used to blast out those bands songs on his cassettes and posters everywhere.

Sushant Tyagi

Don't know how, but never felt this connection to a song as much I did with 12:51. Listening this for the first time made me cry and I don't know but I love that it did.

tafferski

@Daniel Kelley You nailed it.

Daniel Kelley

It's what they do. Strokes' songs make you feel an era of your life that was always going to happen but you just always barely missed it. That's a Strokes song. When you're just on the cusp of feeling how you were always so sure you would feel and it never quite happened that way.

vantha doun

I went to one of their concerts and they were so incredible!!! They arent your typical rock band that is jumping and spitting on the stage, they are playing their music and you can just feel the vibe and energy radiating from the music. That said, Julian Casablanca's voice is totally unique, I know the words to the songs but you can never sing it like he does, it is totally unique and works for all of their songs. I want to see another concert if their every in my neck of the woods.

Deer in Headlights

My favorite song by The Strokes 😀👏🏽

wepeel65

This song deserves even more love than it already has.

Camila Greco

I love this vídeo - and song

Samuel Powell

it is a good love to have, btw if you like the strokes you should check out Lonely Gimmick - Pessimistic Weather, gives me strong strokes vibes and is a cool unknown gem

j holliday

Who's jamming to this in 2021 and loving it just as much as back in 2003?

Squedly Spooch

esto envejecio muy mal pero la cancion estara fresca siempre

Saulo Michaud

Que buena melodía!

Anderson Tomaz

O som deles lembram aquelas trilhas sonoras dos jogos do atari!

TOBI OBITO

Ahhh...that one time period when all those amazing "The" bands sprung up. Great times.

Llewyn Lloyd Llewynson

My highlight will always be "The the"

HawaiianPerson

The White Stripes, The Hives, The Vines, The Strokes, The Black Lips, The Von Bondies, The Donnas, The Libertines, The King Khan, The Fratellis, andThe Killers to name a few of this period

Lisa Peery

coldplay.

Manny C

Strokes weezer the rentals blink 182 nirvana just to name a couple

A totally random person

“The” Arctic Monkeys sounds weird

M

Never want this song to end

Kenneth Ostrer

I've never understood one word Jules has ever said. I'm totally fine with that

Steven Robertson

Might be time to start paying attention. Waning career and fleeting audiences can create quite a market for ......any shit you can think of.

danielOn

Some bands have their vocals so polished I can understand every single sentence in the lyrics ex: Paramore, Linkin Park, Metric, Franz Ferdinand... And in the other hand there's Julian Casablancas and Antony Kieds

Gino Caron

Julian*

Leon Button

Best sentiment I’ve heard all year 💥 that’s made me smile 😁

My very first track by The Strokes I listened on MTV, back in 2004. Well... this band literally stroke me like a lightning! Not only the playing style is catchy and original, also Julian is a talented singer with a distinctive and attractive voice. From the first listen on, album by album, I collected the entire Strokes discography, and I appreciate much the solo releases by Casablancas too... Simply put: I can't get enough of them! Greetings from austrian Alps!

Justin Crowe

Everything they do is pure gold

Dachers123

A timeless classic for sure.

profr. Federico Alberto Rentería Vargas

Esto si era música, siempre que llegaba de la secundaria sonaba esto en MTV

PigPunk LadoMonteCrew

Bons tempos quando passava musica boa na Mtv, lembro que eu tinha 9 anos e sempre ficava ansioso pra passar o clipe do "carinha bêbado" kkkkk

Kahnnabis xxx

Hhahhaah legal punxxxx

lemonkirb

Dev Panda

Fabricio Novaes

ziyad sabour

i hate them for not making this song longer..

Juan Manuel

Haha shut !

manjac

This indie band called The Impures has this cool song out called THREATS

Trabajando con John Aprox

Hace diez años la escuchaba todos los días motivado y lleno de energía, y haci lo voy hacer este año.

Leo Leon

Recuerdos inolvidables espero que The strokes regrese a los escenarios y a las tocadas este 2014. Yo los escucho desde que lanzaron su primer album en el 2001 y que julian se deje de cantar estupideces de musica electro junto con daft. La verdadera esencia y naturaleza de Julian es siendo y cantando indie-rock.   The Strokes lo maximoooooOOOOO   OOOOH YEAHHHH

gustavo russi

@Paula Robles salen con bobadas no todo puede ser el mismo genero pueden explorar otros y no esta de mal un receseo de julian

Paula Robles

Deja de comentar esto en todos los vídeos de The Strokes!!! 

Aaron Oyarzun

beautiful song

Frank Olson Twins

10 Years and this song is still giving. 🎸🥁🎤

Willman Ruperto Durán Saldías

This hits too close to home in quarantine

Kevan Brown

I like this and Reptilia, but nothing can match up to their debut Is This It?, Not a bad track on it. The best album in the last 20 years. So glad because I thought music was finished. I've heard their last album is good. Winning a Grammy. Well done.👍

Alyssa Brock

first Strokes song I ever heard! I was a teenager when this came out, as young as thirteen I believe, maybe fourteen. Anyway I saw this video on MTV and thought "wow amazing song but the singer is weird and looks like he's on drugs" I was so innocent back then, I assumed the better a band was the more drugs they were on. Thankfully I now know it's not even close to that bad AND they're sober now (good job guys) and also kicking my younger self for not doing any further research on the band and realizing Julian is sexy af

Manjy

Honest mistake

Virginia Ruiz

Wow! Exactly my story with this song! 😄💙

Old.Tables

i prefer fab lol

Queens of the Drone Age

@Mark Delgado same all of my songs I wrote when I did drugs now I wrote like two a year

Leon L

@Mark Delgado well julian was mainly a drunk, Albert on the other Hand was into Heroin etc.

Alvaro Avenia

No le pasan los años vienen del futuro 🤟🍺💫

Kittim McCabe

Your music has been with me through good times and bad making either better it’s always inspirational or sometimes just inspired or unique
I started with Reptillia in public school I’m 26 now n playing instead of Reptillia on rock band, I’m doing it solo on just about all my instruments
Now I need to get more instruments... hah

amo

Same yo n Fr fr another song like this is called Time by The Impures

Neil Edge music

One of the best tracks the strokes done so much going on 😉
