This is really well done. It's so good, It makes me wish The Strokes would actually do a cover of it.

[@dunebather]

Haha thank you! Unfortunately I think this is the best you're gonna get ;)

[@TomS17x]

@@dunebather I saw them at NOS Alive last year and they did a cover of as it was, mixed with Sophia by Clairo. I think its on youtube.

[@melodicchronic5181]

​@Dunebather so did you do all the instrumentation yourself?? If so, you're a total badass.

[@dunebather]

@@melodicchronic5181 Haha, I did indeed! All of the drums are programmed though, so I dunno if you consider that cheating.

[@conemedemelee20]

the first time i heard "as it was" by Harry Style i thought that i was listening a new song from strokes. that song is VERY strokes in any way, especially with the new album sound. Great cover

[@binodsarkarIN]

this is insanely good. brb gonna be looping this for a while now

[@dunebather]

Haha, thank you.

[@newbeginning1510]

@@dunebatherI’m addicted ti this cover. Can’t stop listening to it. Your voice is contagious and beautiful ❤

[@dunebather]

@@newbeginning1510 Thank you!!!

[@The_Real_Bonesaw]

Holy shit. This is so fucking good.

[@chuckplainview4085]

There's gotta be someone out there who can do a KILLER julian casablancas. The only thing I've found I don't like about all these covers is they lean into Harry's vocal style. There's some points where it would be really cool to hear a dropped octave or something to show off julians more low end "crooner" style. He does it ALL the time and it's basically a staple besides his higher falsetto stuff. This is probably the best one I've ever seen yet though so awesome job dude!

[@arutzuki2491]

Matty Greg did it

[@karthikrai7591]

This is such a great cover, it perfectly captures what the Strokes is all about - right from the guitar solos to the vocals! Keep producing more of such covers, please!

[@dunebather]

I will do my best!

[@maromonroy4639]

It would be hilarious if the strokes actually played this song live one day

[@kaiserhell53]

They did it

[@araespi15]

this is amazing! especially the "in this world" part, that sounds so much like a strokes song. love this

[@dunebather]

Now that you say it -- you're spot on. Something about the vocal melody maybe?

[@TioLara-z3y]

U r awesome🎉, pure talent in this cover thanks!

[@SaintNektarios]

How did he get the Strokes to be his backing band?

[@gdmichael808]

am I wrong or is this idea completely ripped from Matty Greg Music? Either way, great cover.

[@VincentVaIentine]

Wow... I'm so speechless! I'm happy I didn't give up on searching for covers of this song 🖤🖤🦋

[@BrunoValads]

omg this is SO GOOD, the sync is so seamless, great job!

[@dunebather]

Haha, I sped up their video ever so slightly to match my tempo I think. Worked perfectly with some fast cuts, which the OG video already had a lot of!

[@BrunoValads]

@@dunebather that's cool! Now all i could wish for is having this track on Spotify

[@rocmmusic]

this is the better version of the more popular version, i was wondering when somebody was going to do this right. Good Fucking Job

[@blinkivxx]

Wow man. Just got off work and found this after reeling from seeing The Strokes at Red Rocks. Not a huge Harry Styles fan but loved As It Was, and after hearing a couple of these crossovers, absolutely fell in love with this. Great job, keep going.

[@HanChoclo]

is really well done, i can see it being a b-side on comedown machine

[@theflame9015]

Beautiful , i can listen to this all day long

[@stefanoo618]

ITS LIKE SOMEDAY ADAPTATION! WONDERFUL!!! ❤

[@gianco_97]

Los strokes debieron haber lanzado una versión con Harry hubiera sido un boom. Seguro fijo.

[@hakimm7118]

eventhough i don't really listen to harry styles, but this song hits different. say if this song originally from the strokes, it''ll be classic

[@14harii]

Holdin' me back Gravity's holdin' me back I want you to hold out the palm of your hand Why don't we leave it at that? Nothin' to say When everything gets in the way Seems you cannot be replaced And I'm the one who will stay, oh In this world, it's just us You know it's not the same as it was In this world, it's just us You know it's not the same as it was As it was, as it was You know it's not the same Answer the phone "Harry, you're no good alone Why are you sittin' at home on the floor? What kind of pills are you on?" Ringin' the bell And nobody's comin' to help Your daddy lives by himself He just wants to know that you're well, oh In this world, it's just us You know it's not the same as it was In this world, it's just us You know it's not the same as it was As it was, as it was You know it's not the same Go home, get ahead, light-speed internet I don't wanna talk about the way that it was Leave America, two kids follow her I don't wanna talk about who's doin' it first As it was You know it's not the same as it was As it was, as it was

[@robbiegori]

its KI right?

[@l_al0o]

can anyone tell me the chords he play in the beginning and the chorus?

[@dunebather]

Hey friend, I'm playing a basic Am (high on the neck at the 12th fret, playing just the root/5th/3rd of a standard bar shape) down to a D (at the 5th fret), up to a G (at the 10th fret A string, and I walk down the root note in the second half of the chord down to an F#) to a C (bar chord at the 8th fret). Hope that helps -- the chorus is basically the same.

[@l_al0o]

@@dunebatherfor the rest of the chords like D G and the C do you play like a standard bar chord (hitting all the strings) or do you just play the root, 3rd, 5th ? also, that solo on the final part of the song is fire bro. It got me to replay that a million times haha. Are you playing that in Am pentatonic?. Just checked out your album, it has some fire tracks too. Hope you go big someday🔥🔥
