You know, i the fact that this song is a "pop rock" really serves the lyrics well, acting as a contrast to how the singer say he doesnt want people to know he feels so he puts up this happy energetic facade

[@ImNotFine44]

Couldn’t have said it better

[@Marco81323]

Can't you just appreciate the effort of a great guitarist writing a nice tune? It's not like it's bad just because it's not what you expected, doesn't work like that lads

[@Sharkmonger]

I'm going to listen to CRX in my Honda CRX

[@croetheconfused]

mad lad

[@KMoo-oz1kw]

🥰👍

[@kikib8434]

[@joshuaholm1886]

Wouldn't be funny that is why there called crx lol

[@danielclodfelter1915]

People keep hating on this song, but I think it's dope as shit, keep it up CRX!!

[@crybooii2389]

Seeing MF Doom mask now makes me missing him much more.

[@theyactlikeromans]

dope song! Nick has a great voice.

[@Tulder]

Woah Nick can sing! I'll definitely listen the album when it drops

[@zappersack792]

This song makes me so happy and I don't know why😁 every time I listen to it, I just have a big smile on my face and in wondering,"why am I so weird?" But then again it is a great song.

[@whoisalessandra4331]

[@7teenagesmokers309]

Junior Hernandez Albert Hammond Jr.'s stuff is great, his first album is amazing imo.

[@LMAE98]

I've seem the bad comments but I don't fucking care!! This song is great!! I love Nikck's voice, the guitars, I think that Ralph is excelent in the drums :33

[@huggleston6936]

dad rock.

[@seapinesglow]

Great power pop tune! The album's pretty good too! A couple of numbers fall flat the rest is interesting hard rock-pop melodies and time changes w/ pristine harmonies. Way to go Nick!

[@ivanernst7587]

Great rock n roll, great voice, great future

[@adminsfm]

good song.

[@tropicarls]

Everyone was expecting something different. I don't know what I was expecting, but this is definately up my alley.

[@strider975]

i thought Broken Bones was OK, but this has me on another level of excited. Pre-ordered.

[@thytoe]

I love it!

[@tonerizor4293]

Love this song

[@maauricio16]

[@GabrielFernandez2013]

La mejor banda, saludos desde Argentina. The best song, I like it

[@LMI101]

Love this song, takes me back to 2013 for some reason :)

[@M_Blue57]

it would like you might think lol

[@thicckushpanda8170]

[@CarEdy23]

[@DiegoRRL]

Hacia falta algo de frescura! Thanks Nick n friends.

[@doraaaa0613]

[@TheMazzken]

The artwork reminds me of Hotline Miami

[@Bildevoful]

The name of the artist is boneface, his art is everywhere.

[@wheeliethebin]

funnily enough the artist actually has done art for hotline miami. it can be found on his website, artist's name is b0neface.

[@gforce07]

I like this song, I think it's nice!

[@rocioalcaraz4992]

In lovee 😍😍😍

[@SeaOfMadness]

I'd heard the live stuff via the YT vids (really love "Walls") so this was surprisingly different to that; not my bag but I can see why people like it. Looking forward to the album.

[@somavenison9279]

amazing !!!

[@avasmonsters]

nick has a great voice! really cool!

[@hectorlacruzcamacho3135]

me encantan vuestras canciones

[@drackoarchy]

that sounds great

[@benchampion3768]

I like it.. Reminds me abit of the BOC song Here comes that feeling again👍

[@gabrielezaffo8041]

YOU ARE THE BEST BAND

[@BeachSkies]

Subscriber 248 here. Definitely going to get the new album!!!

[@martinmroz4824]

strokes + queens = win

[@AndJamTracksForAll2014]

has such a "cars" vibe

[@MorganKCloud]

...And Jam Tracks For All A lot of similarities to Just What I Needed and You Might Think.

[@willfahren-wasserski3459]

Underrated

[@victimizedidiot1612]

I was expecting a heavier and rockier(I can't explain the term LOL) 90s alternative rock sound like on their live gigs. But I will still give them a chance since this is just their first single.

[@rudythedog13]

Especially since Josh Homme is producing, I would think he would bring at least a little bit of a heavier influence.

[@codandskate10]

guys it's a single, the singles are always the poppier ones.

[@rudythedog13]

Skate Or Die That's the hope

[@moonsmonsters]

hard rock. he loves gnr

[@InfinityOnHighx1]

I saw them live. They have heavy tracks

[@andym6406]

Can't wait till December XD

[@marcito9928]

great song

[@MrDrewmeyer]

sounds like "you might think" by the cars. great tune

[@Griff48432]

this is a little like the strokes but also kind of different I like it a lot

[@Griff48432]

it actually kind of reminds me of the cars

[@c-rrucho1545]

es corte strokes pero nada que ver

[@shadygroves8252]

so good

[@Jonathan-SZ]

Just give it time!! Julian already had tons of experience writing The Strokes songs, and Albert Hammond Jr. is just now getting into the rhythm, just give Nick time and he'll have a good album out in a couple of yrs. It takes time

[@CharmianLee]

Good job RALPH!

[@CharmianLee]

And friends!!

[@jimzer]

cool production on the elec guitsSs

[@heynhamnham]

In 2013 my dream was to draw some designs for CRX, now my style evolved and I keep listening to them anyways

[@LoLHUBB3DG]

Love it, reminds me a bit of 38 special or cars just a smidge classic rock esque but not.

[@lailatrindade4494]

Rad!

[@weswally1]

Dad rock.

[@jacksonmcnnally8937]

sadly gotta agree because even though nick is great, this song sucks my friend's hairy ass

[@nataliavargas9299]

Hell yeah!

[@thytoe]

Listen to some of their other songs if you haven't!, their album came out a few days ago and I prefer the other songs over this one

[@JCStorm76]

weswally1 In other words, real music

[@JoseFlores-hq8ob]

lol i guarantee the music you listen to is derivative of dad rock, son. I'm 28 bought the strokes first album in 2001 and saw them live in 2004. They are definitely dad rock.

[@jimenafdv3207]

-Me:😔 +This song: **exists** -Me:😌

[@MichaelABruce-px7ey]

OH MY GOD I love this,, FUCKIN ROCK N ROLL!!! may this be a revolution

[@xandromedax4612]

THIS IS THE BEST BAND OF THIS FUCKING WORLD!!!!!!! I LOVE IT SO MUCH RICHIE, NICK, DARIAN, RALPH AND JON! YOU´RE THE QUEENS OF THE MUSIC

[@nath_2107]

Brilliantly surprised at how good this actually is. Still trying to figure out whether it's 'CRX' or 'C.R.X.'

[@juan65652]

The Strokes and CRX a good combination!!!

[@Geekyguy25]

For some reason everytime I hear his voice it reminds me of Clifford lol

[@danielesussarello8340]

Bravissimi!!!!!😎

[@ChutorialChannel]

0:55 that hook :O :D

[@Claudia-kr9ng]

Love

[@teodelnorte]

The Strokes email brought me here. Nice job Nick, great guitar, good song.

[@cris-ne3vk]

80s vibes

[@chimpmaster2099]

does this remind anyone of the pains of being pure at heart?

[@graffiticat8471]

tfw more people talking about the people disliking this video than actual people disliking this video

[@elloco1.0]

CHILE !!!

[@PCDisciple]

I mean jesus guys why are you disliking the video? It actually really hurts CRX to do this. I don't think this is a great song but CRX do have great songs. Don't downvote unless you actually just hate CRX, ESPECIALLY if you're a Strokes fan.

[@Mary-eo7ir]

The smiths!

[@nicolasbaudry3568]

implying we need to not dislike videos we don't like *what*

[@artistmeme8103]

"downvote" boi this isn't reddit

[@ianmarcos350]

Asu pero que buena cancion papa !

[@istherelifeonmars_]

fresh

[@captaincancer7786]

The new Hotline Miami game looks great.

[@vichansford3869]

Nick said in interviews that he had a few pop songs that he wanted to make more aggressive, but was talked out of it by Josh Homme. I believe he was told that he should stick to his guns, and not try sounding like Queens or aspiring to some other standard. There are heavier songs coming, as seen from the live videos.

[@aleksanderhaugdal9361]

Source?

[@AloneTogether85]

+Aleksanderh www.rollingstone.com/music/features/nick-valensi-on-new-side-project-state-of-the-strokes-w438094

[@aleksanderhaugdal9361]

Let's just treat it as what it is. and "sticking to his guns" completely different

[@vichansford3869]

+Aleksanderh It was just an interpretation of what was said. I didn't say it was a direct quote. What I meant is that Josh didn't want Valensi to change just for the sake of change.

[@rocker4577]

This is about as dangerous as Ricky Wilson's socks.

[@topindiemusic410]

vaya nick es increíble

[@flores50588]

is that the "mf doom" mask on the second row?

[@ommaralexander3457]

flores50588 i think it is hahaha

[@balintkristof8442]

Its from Gladiator

[@AmonRa1081]

All caps when you mention the man's name.

[@moonsmonsters]

can definitely tell that nick wrote the "you get taken for a fool all the time/ i dont know why/ you're so gullible but i don't mind" lines. yes i know he wrote TFAF but jules did too.

[@leonardotonix3180]

Super Canción 😎

[@checkurbrainfly]

If you have the chance I recommend you to check CRX Live , for instance listening to this song Live takes out that pop polished sound from the produced version, and btw the drummer Ralph Alexander is awesome!, check them out ,you'll get more than you tix worth

[@InfinityOnHighx1]

Couldn't agree more. The solo was killer live

[@luckypistol69]

Why so many dislikes? this is pretty good.

[@swifted89]

❤️

[@emen761]

The Cars vibe on this one

[@emiliomauricioescobar8746]

Sublimidad de la brutalidad de Valensi 😸

[@IIIOldSchooLIII]

This is one of those songs I didn't think much of at first but ended up liking a little bit more and more each time I hear it. Weird how that happens...

[@renatap4806]

Cool :)

[@CinderingCoyote]

I don't know how but I am getting crx's song ways to fake it comments while I am listening to puzzle pieces by saint motal

[@strokesfan1251]

dope af, as the kids say....

[@ThekillersvsMuse]

Josh Homme brings me here.

[@kevinjohn7026]

me too

[@pyroparagon8945]

This Band is great, I'm more into songs more like Broken Bones, but most of this band's music is very good!

[@northodox10]

not bad. cool!
