The Strokes | Trying Your Luck (This Life) BBC Sessions
Listening to this session for the first time in years and I completely forgot that Chris Martin was on the radio show when some of these were aired and cracked up at his small, dorky contribution here. The way he says Julian’s name with so much wonder, he totally get it.
#i bet he checks FYTS on a regular basis
Reblogging this here for the great, early version of Trying Your Luck/This Life, for Jade’s tag, and for the fact that this involves Chris Martin and I’m a huge Coldplay fan as well. This was probably the first time he heard The Strokes as well, and he’s a very, very big fan of them now.
I’m 99% sure that this interview was conducted on February 28, 2001, long before the release of Is This It. I’m close to getting my hands on the full interview to see if there’s any more talk about The Strokes.
—Chelsea
- What were your roles at Julian's wedding? Did anyone make a speech?
- Nick: Nikolai made a beautiful speech. We were all groomsmen. What's a groomsman? You offer support for the groom and for the best man - in case anything goes wrong, you take care of it.
- Fab: If shit goes down, you're there. Right before the ceremony happened, we were all "backstage" in the church and it felt like a show. We were all so nervous for him, but it went great. Julian made this speech that me teary-eyed and Nikolai…
- Julian: OK…I don't mean to…this is embarrassing.
- Nikolai: Did I make a particularly bawdy best man's speech? No, I chickened out. I made him a cheesy little video.
- Nick: It wasn't cheesy. Old footage of them when they were kids, growing up. It was really heart-warming.
Lyrics from Reptilia / The Strokes
I whipped this up in about 2 hours using Pixelmator. Cutting out the shapes/ Rearranging layers took a ton of time.
So. Many. Layers.

the strokes bingo
how to play
- play alone or with friends if you have any
- watch random strokes videos by yourself
- first person with five in a row wins
- realize how dumb and embarrassing this is to the loser who made it (me)
