Some people think they're always right...

The guitars and the beats and the bass and the words...

These are the things that make the Strokes the best rock band out there ...

They don't even have competitors mixing bitter melodies, sharp lyrics, edgy guitar harmonies and tight drumbeats..

You Only Live Once which opened their last record.. First Impressions of Earth

It shows ... no need for the ultimate effects pedal, wall of sound.. or tricky guitar solos ..

Again.-.. all about the feeling...

the only way it can be done..

.. my feelings are more important than yours

Whenever I listen to this chorus.. I nod with my head..

Some of Julian Casablanca's lyrics are excellent, uncomplicated things that you already know.. but fail to remember until you heard them in someone else's mouth..

Plus if it's said, with such edgy guitar lines and riffs of the Strokes.. it sounds even better...

The mess of guitars during the intro are so chaotic and untidy…

Sounds like a rehearsal studio down any alley..

but everything is on it's right place..

I needed some cool rock after my electronica week..

And as the greatest last rock band is this one..

I choose Razorblade for today.



Oh, the, Razor blade, that's what I call love
I bet you pick it up and mess around with it
If I put it down
It gets extremely complicated
Anything to forget everything

You got to take me out
At least once a week
Whether I'm in your arms
Or I'm at your feet
I know exactly what you're thinking
You won't say it now
But in your heart it's loud

Oh no, my feelings are more important than yours
Oh, drop dead, I don't care, I won't worry
There you go

Oh, the razor blade
Wish it would snap this rope
The world is in your hand
Or it's at your throat
At times it's not that complicated
Anything to forget everything

He would never talk
But he was not shy
She was a street-smart girl
But she could not lie
They were perfect for each other
Say it now
Cause in your heart it's loud

Oh no, my feelings are more important than yours
Oh, drop dead, I don't care, I won't worry

Ayh

Sweetheart
Your feelings are more important of course
Of course
Everyone you wanted
Everything that we would take from them
I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me

no, don't, okay
