ApproximatelyInfinite Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 I thought Planeta Terra was fabulous, but I think their best this year was definitely Bonnaroo, at least from the livestreams and the ones I was at :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdPlay Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I used to not like the Strokes but I've listened to Angles 3 times now. hmm...for me "is this it" is not only their best album but my favorite album ever.

When they started playing Heart in a Cage at Planeta Terra I thought I was going to die of happiness ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keddie Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I used to not like the Strokes but I've listened to Angles 3 times now. Hehehe :awesome: Do you have favorites? Oh, and I'm going to figure out a way to get that playlist to you as well :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApproximatelyInfinite Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 My favorite was Bonnaroo as well but it lacked of FIOE songs... When they started playing Heart in a Cage at Planeta Terra I thought I was going to die of happiness ! True, I remember realizing after that there weren't any FIOE songs besides YOLO and Juicebox, which was sad because FIOE is my favorite album after Is This It, but I think just the mood and vibe from the band as well as the actual sound of the performance was the best they did this year :wacky:. I think the other one that impressed me the most was Reading. Speaking of FIOE songs, when I saw them in Maryland this year, they didn't do a SINGLE FIOE song, which was sad to me, but it was also the best out of the times I've seen them so it wasn't that sad :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roche714 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Im a newer fan of the Strokes but I adore them..Everyday im reading old interviews and looking at all the concerts on you tube The only thing that does bother me is Julian with the sunglasses..I love looking at him singing with expression in his eyes,but with the sunglasses you cant see anything..and the hat makes it worse.It's like he wants to cover up every part of his body..

EdPlay Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 anyone knows where i can find strokes official lyrics? Each site has differents lyrics-.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keddie Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Their official website has the lyrics for the songs from the first three albums. Although to be honest I think at least a couple of those are still, somehow, incorrect. Take for example the lyrics in Is This It where I am SURE Julian says "all pissed in this bar" even though the lyrics on their site are "all pissed at his pa." I am further certain of this due to the fact that their old website had the former lyrics, instead of the latter ones. Anyways, what I'm saying is that it's kind of a gamble. And the lyrics for Angles have not all been officially released yet either. However, on Julian's website you can find the official lyrics to Macchu Pichu, Two Kinds of Happiness, and Life Is Simple In The Moonlight. Good luck making sense of all that :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdPlay Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Hmm. i didnt find the lyrics in julians website, only the solo songs lyrics.} thats nice haha EDIT: nvm, i just found the lyrics, its in the news session.

ApproximatelyInfinite Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 And acoustic versions of I think all of the album songs played by Julian on a DVD I still don't forgive myself for not buying that box set while it was available :sad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keddie Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 ^Same here :( Someday I'll probably end up buying it on ebay or something for like $500, I'm sure. It's sad how much that sounds like me :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's sad how much that sounds like me :rolleyes: I already searched for that. It has not. I cant find it >< Did you guys saw the video of him signing himself the deluxe box? ps: thx for the rarities ApproximatelyInfinite, ill check it out tomorrow, got to go now x) Anyone knows where i can buy or download all the singles and EP's?

ApproximatelyInfinite Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 iTunes has most of the singles, but they're not really that big on B-sides. The B-sides that they do have are in that upload folder I linked you to in MM :D Unless you mean in hardcopy, like on CD or 7", and there the best place is eBay. And yes, I scour eBay and the like for the PFTY box set, but nothing yet :sad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ApproximatelyInfinite Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 I was there, and Games was the one song I video recorded while there! The crowd was too rough to do much else, and I got pushed pretty far back. UGH, I'm more sad than I should be about their tour being over. I think it's because I don't wholly trust them to get back in the studio soon and pump out another album in good time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
