Knocked Up by The Royal Concept
I do not own the rights to this song.

[@moisesortiz9669]

Anyone else listening to this in 2024?

[@electricbrix]

This song lives in my head rent free and have been coming back to this video every year.

[@JasonDurazo-tq1su]

This will never get out of my head

[@MrEbtorres]

I just remembered this song yesterday - I used to spend countless hours listening to TRC 🔥

[@danielpetracci3826]

[@omarvilla3986]

I’m so glad that this gem has stayed hidden for this many years

[@jrdnsgrarchvs9163]

Why?

[@jrdnsgrarchvs9163]

Bro come on

[@omarvilla3986]

jrdn sgr lmao

[@omarvilla3986]

jrdn sgr sorry it’s took so long for me to reply to you friend

[@jrdnsgrarchvs9163]

@@omarvilla3986 oh its fine, I've been coming back to a bunch of videos since we're all stuck inside. Pretty cool that you did respond tho

[@WoahItsKate13]

Their sound deffinetly reminds me of the strokes and Phoenix. I'm seeing them in Boston next month with Imagine Dragons:)

[@slimyslime236]

How was the show?!?

[@DeSanKwuh]

lol sounds so much like 'machu picchu' by the strokes! this band is like a mixture of Phoenix and The strokes...why i love them!

[@jackfranz3730]

The book called Playlist is based on The Royal Concept lyrics. Knocked Up is Chapter 14 and all the music/literature lovers should check it on facebook/instagram/blogspot/twitter. Jack Franz - Playlist

[@ryanmandoza5334]

There sure is alot of haters or there! This band is friggin awesome in every way! Yeah phoenix sounds like them i bit. But they have so many good damn songs! So catchy. Good lyrics. Shit you can totally relate too. Check other songs out before you judge this band!

[@AlexisAlexander646]

Yea, when I first heard Phoenix, it reminded me of this band quite a lot. But I don't really like Phoenix (Besides their top song, Lisztomania) because most of their songs seem to be slow. Plus I really like the sound of the instruments/music in The Royal Concept a lot better :p

[@tessamohammed]

I literally just came from listening to Fences by Phoenix and had to come listen to this lol

[@a7c777]

No. Phoenix came first. /They/ sound like Phoenix. And the guitar riff is ripped from the Strokes’ “Machu Pichu”. The evidence is damning in terms of copyright. I like this track but if I was their copy right lawyer, I would sweat given their clear influence from strokes, and Phoenix stuff.

[@80sNMusic]

So much Angles in here :)

[@YearOnACloud]

YEAH this reminds me so much of the strokes! Was just thinking about that lol

[@doradusdaft551]

Much music. So mesmerize. Amaze. Wow.

[@ayansewell8324]

the strokes + pheonix

[@mehrrafiei6284]

Is there a reason why this song can't be found on Spotify of The Royal Concept?

[@zacisu]

I had a digital version of an EP when it was released then, within a year, it's like it disappeared. Last time I saw them at a concert they didn't play it either. You can't find it anywhere anymore. (but here)

[@__JH_]

@@zacisu can you share it please... I noticed it disappeared

[@zacisu]

@@__JH_ I hope I can find it now. Lemme look....

[@__JH_]

@@zacisu thank you!!

[@a7c777]

I would imagine there would be a Strokes lawsuit given that it sounds similar to “Machu Pichu”, and the pre chorus sounds like the “its never been like that” part from Phoenix’s “long distance call”, and possibly an interpolation of Arctic Monkey’s “Mardy bum” in the vocal breakdown on the second half. Some of their songs seem like a copyright nightmare tbh😅

[@Francs_UrEsc]

Cuando The Royal Concept hacían buena música

[@XxKRIMZUNxX]

I'm addicted to this song.

[@byhilliard]

This song is amazing.

[@headshot531]

i really hate this song isnt on spotify. why is that again? licensing or some shit..

[@rinckney]

i am glad i shazamed this :)

[@deechrain]

Am I the only one who gets acid flashbacks from this video ? Lol

[@luisceballos1479]

Oh no, I don't wanna say no But I got wasted all in the night Oh boy, she's as tough as they come I've never meant to stay the whole night But she will knock on like a shot, someday And I got locked out, what a luck, someday And you say "Hey, Boy you gonna need someone, you gonna need someone, you gonna need someone someday" Yeah you say "Hey, Boy you really need someone, you really need someone, you really need someone today" And we're on top of the world Oh no, this is far as I go No I don't feel like holding hands now (oh no no) We know this is working no more I never meant to change anyhow But she'll get knocked-on like a shot, someday And I got locked out, what a luck, someday And you say "Hey, Boy you gonna need someone, you gonna need someone, you gonna need someone someday" And you say "Hey, Boy you really need someone, you really need someone, you really need someone today" "Hey, Boy you gonna need someone, you gonna need someone, you gonna need someone someday" Yeah you say "Hey, Boy you really need someone, you really need someone, you really need someone today" I don't wanna be without her I don't wanna lay beside her Could it be she's just as tired When sometimes I can't deny it And she's making plans to hide it Could it be that I'm just hiding I don't wanna be inside her I just wanna stay beside her I'm so obsessed it's hard to see straight Where's the walls I can't deny it And we're making plans to hide it And I don't wanna be the last man struggle All good folks come and go

[@beesquestionmark]

Sounds like a mix of two door cinema club and phoenix omg I love it. I heard this song in a Friday’s and I can’t find it on iTunes but I wanna buy it so badly 😭

[@GabyCarithaz]

El no saber porque esta canción no la puedo encontrar en ningún lado que no sea aquí me perseguirá de por vida

[@rafarush45]

Im lucky cause i discovered this song lately

[@Jessicasanchezc]

LOVEE it!!

[@thefifthbeatle5203]

Guitars sound exactly like Machu Picchu-The Strokes 0:00-0-20

[@TijuanaDonkey10]

It's like the strokes combined with Phoenix

[@jrdnsgrarchvs9163]

👍

[@nicflay]

If you think the guitar is similar to the Strokes, listen to Julian Casablancas' song "11th Dimension"--the vocals are EXACTLY the same tone! Still love the Royal Concept!

[@Bearjaws]

My thoughts EXACTLY!! lol love them though.

[@traddadanssec4841]

The guitar part at 3:23 to the end sounds like a certain 90s song but I can’t figure it out. Does anyone have a clue to what it might be?

[@zomgseriosuly]

Did he say 'oh no' or 'hell' no'? Because it's so much more fun to imagine him saying 'hell no' while wearing a golden weave

[@sugarclaws2248]

Amazing

[@SooperSpy]

The guitar throughout both songs sound pretty similar, the intro especially.

[@jackmonai1188]

2020 come here.

[@jackmonai1188]

2024 hahaha

[@Francs_UrEsc]

When The Royal Concept were good

[@faithrosales5793]

Sounds a bit like the intro of Machu Picchu.

[@jewel791]

Come back to Brooklyn.

[@zeppelin342]

Thought it was Machu Pichu part 2 for a sec lol

[@simoggio]

True

[@heygirlhey842]

I KNOW RIGHT !!

[@abdalla609]

anyone knows where to get the instrumental of this song :(

[@23binkhal]

The strokes???

[@jmcmillon22]

Ugh I need bass tabs. I'm having zero luck working it out by ear.

[@DardanZ]

foooooooo

[@matheus4199]

Cadê os brasileiros??

[@coolsoeb]

It's like a modern version of The Strokes if that makes sense. That's why people like me who are into modern music seem to enjoy their music so much.

[@TheMassimo1492]

Uguali ai The Strokes!

[@sydneysandoval3290]

their sound sort of reminds me of The Strokes

[@oscarrivera3929]

Still dope as fuck

[@HayleeyBayleey]

[@fraziankidd]

sounds like this belongs on a fifa soundtrack

[@crunchpunchpat586]

Strokes Guitars

[@CatManUtdFC]

Why does everyone say that about anything remotely hipster!!!

[@336lp]

Biggest strokes rip off ever

[@brew2106]

Ciano Cioffi that's their biggest inspiration you dumb fuck

[@marysiasia2]

terrible vocal.... and grat musical aspects in 'pop' songs... that's scary
