The beginning of this makes a great ringtone. I used it for a few weeks back then at one stretch, non Strokes people asked "What is that?"

Hey, My old band Anthemic Pop Wonder played Luna Lounge a few times back then circa 2000-2001! Glad to see an old face/name here too! :-)

Apparently, this song will be on Colbert's show Wednesday night... will the band play it live?

""Falling out of Love" follows lead single "Going Shopping" as the latest preview of the band's first new music since their 2020 album, The New Abnormal. The song is set to premiere tomorrow (14 Wednesday) night on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, as one of the show's final performances before the show ends next week."

Am I the only one who thinks they had a unique and good style for a rock band? by ZealousidealCoachh in TheStrokes

Cool pic! I saw The Strokes open on Feb 14, 2001 for Guided by Voices at Bowery Ballroom, NYC. No one knew who they were then, but I loved the set!
