Valleyboy Posted May 10, 2004 Share Posted May 10, 2004 Could you guys be kind enough to tell me who sings the backing vocals in this brilliant strokes song? you know, the "run run run" thing. I always thought it was nick, but then I read somewhere that albert sings it. :idea2: Oh yea, feel free to say nice things about the strokes here.

Skinned Alive Posted May 10, 2004 Share Posted May 10, 2004 I didnt know that you liked the strokes too. thats awesome :cool: :cool: I've been a fan since long before most people had even begun to notice them. When everyone was telling me "have you heard this new Strokes song called 'Last Nite'? It's fucking brilliant!" I'd just smile back and say "yeah, I heard it months ago".

Valleyboy Posted May 10, 2004 Author Share Posted May 10, 2004 Yea it is. Man, i cant believe that other version doesnt have new york city cops. its probably my favourite is this it track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CityandColour Posted May 10, 2004 Share Posted May 10, 2004 Well, from the one your talking about: Quote: Album Details The Artwork is Completely Different from the Us Version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinned Alive Posted May 10, 2004 Share Posted May 10, 2004 Whoa, thats so weird. track 9 is new york city cops, not when it started. Don't fret, for I have the answer to this little dilemma The US release had When It Started on it, but every other one has New York City Cops. 'Why?' I hear you ask... Because the album was released not very long after the 9/11 incident. New York City Cops has the line "New York City cops, they ain't too smart", which as you can imagine a lot of American people really would not have been too happy about. So they swapped the track on the US release for When It Started, but left it on there for UK and International releases. Problem solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valleyboy Posted May 10, 2004 Author Share Posted May 10, 2004 You know, actually there are three different is this it versions, i think -the black and white cover, with new york city cops -the blue and yellow cover, with when it started -and a different version of the blue and yellow cover, that comes with a 5-tracks dvd. thats the one i bought. whoa. we learn something new everyday, eh?

CityandColour Posted May 10, 2004 Share Posted May 10, 2004 That's ok, I have NYC Cops anyways. I took off 'Between Love & Hate,' on Room On Fire and put NYC Cops instead. Problem solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
