Bonus Music Post: "Taken for a Fool" by The Strokes

"Mama, don't you forget my number." -- Julian Casablancas



It's never the wrong time to take a moment for a little Strokes appreciation. Damn, this song makes me feel cool.

I'm writing up a storm and feeling good. Thanks, Julian!

Music Mondays: "Reptilia" by The Strokes

"I said, 'Please don't slow me down if I'm going too fast.'" -- Julian Casablancas



God, this song makes me want to go too fast. With Julian Casablancas? Maybe... He's got a weird sort of appeal. In this video, he has a really pure rock star feeling, like he came from some rock planet that exists outside of time.

Bonus Music Post: "Someday" by The Strokes

"I'm working so I won't have to try so hard." -- The Strokes



I'm not really sure what the line I quoted above means, I only know it moves me every time I hear it. I feel like I've been working hard lately, and trying hard at the same time -- maybe too much in both cases. Sometimes, the right song can become a companion, even when I'm not sure where I'm going.
