    Lyrics:
    Yeah, I'm under his thumb, I'm on his back
    I will not show my teeth too quick
    I needed you there, I needed you there
    But I didn't know, I didn't know

      And they will look up for a moment from their phone and go "erm what?" and you'll repeat the meme and they'll say "ugh shut up dad no one cares you're so embarrassing! ughhh" then proceed to call their friend to bitch about someone at school and you'll feel sad that you can't connect to your kids, so you'll say it to your wife and she'll look at you with disappointment and sleep on the sofa that night wondering whatever happened. So congratulations.

    I had a toxic relationship with a girl for 3 years. We broke up, but despite the bad things she said to me, I still think about her. When this album came out, we broke up a few days later. Before and after, it was my favorite song from the album, especially the part where Julian says,
    "I'm gonna say, what's on my mind
    Then I'll walk out
    Then I’ll feel fine.”
    This is still my favorite song because it somehow reminds me of a girl with whom I have a lot of bad and many good memories bind us. Hopefully she is fine because her father is sick with schizophrenia and she has to deal with all this alone. If she reads this, I will tell her that I hope you are well and I wish everything was better. Goodbye, I am starting a new phase of life.

    I'll go alone
    Back from his trip, he's at the door
    When he gets back, he's on the phone
    Innocent eye, innocent heart
    No, it's not wrong, but it's not right
    Innocent time out on his own
    Not got gonna do that, I'm out of control
    I was just bored playin' the guitar
    Learned all your tricks, wasn't too hard
    It's the last one now, I can promise you that
    I'm gonna find out the truth when I get back
    Gone now are the old times
    Forgotten, time to hold on the railing
    The Rubix cube isn't solving for us
    Old friends, long forgotten
    The old ways at the bottom
    Of the ocean now has swallowed
    The only thing that's left
    Is us, so pardon the silence
    That you're hearing is turning
    Into a deafening, painful, shameful roar

      @Ryan Jachtmann interesting, that could be mixed in there. Seems to me it's about his dad, and maybe the relationships he witnessed and a little of his own relationships mixed in there. His dad was a world-traveling, important, wealthy sort of dude. He even had an affair with Stephanie Seymour when she was 16 (he was 41). I'm sure things like that bred a lot of animosity with Julian. But that's just my interpretation.

    Lyrics
    Up on his horse, up on his horse
    Not gonna wake up here anymore
    Listen one time, it's not the truth
    It's just the story I tell to you
    Easy to say, easy to do
    But it's not easy, well maybe for you
    Hope that you find it, hope that it's good
    Hope that you read it, think that you should
    Cuts you some slack as he sits back
    Sizes you up, plans his attack
    Drums please, Fab
    And I got it all, I got it all
    Waitin' for me down on the street
    But now you gotta do somethin' special for me
    I'm gonna say what's on my mind
    Then I'll walk out, then I'll feel fine
    Yeah, I'm under his thumb, I'm on his back
    I will not show my teeth too quick
    I needed you there, I needed you there
    But I didn't know, I didn't know
    Back from his trip, he's at the door
    When he gets back, he's on the phone
    Innocent eye, innocent heart
    No, it's not wrong, but it's not right
    Innocent time, out on his own
    Not gonna do that, fuck, I'm out of control
    I was just bored, playin' the guitar
    Learned all your tricks, wasn't too hard
    It's the last one now, I can promise you that
    I'm gonna find out the truth when I get back
    Gone now are the old times
    Forgotten, time to hold on the railing
    The Rubik's Cube isn't solving for us
    Old friends, long forgotten
    They all wait at the bottom of
    The ocean now has swallowed
    The only thing that's left is us
    So pardon the silence that you're hearing
    Is turnin' into a deafening
    Painful, shameful roar

    This song is me and my father’s relationship. I grew up so desperately seeking pride and validation from him because I looked up to him. Our closeness has been forever fractured by my older sisters death and the circumstances around it. She was his favorite, and what happened has crushed him in sorrow and regret. He coped in self protection, and waits for me to turn out just like her. You can no longer be proud of something you think is doomed, and the resentment shadows a lot of our interactions. It’s taken a long time to unlearn how the three of us cope, and to not internalize what he sees in me

    Hello everyone, I haven't heard many songs by the Strokes nor by Julian Casablancas and the Voidz (it seems this guy has loads of things going on) so I am not a "specialist" of his/ their work. Anyway, I came across this song after discovering "Human sadness" by chance. So I was listening to this ode a bit unattentively while assessing some of my students' papers, I gradually grew more interested by 3:30 min and "yes, that sounds good, didn't expect that" and ten comes the finale by 4:20 min and...HELLOOOOO!? What's going on here?!! I'm overwhelmed with an unspeakable mix of thrills, feeling of nostalgia, desire, need for screaming, hey, what's that? Thay play with such humble talent, no overdone demonstration, ouh, this guy Julian and his fellows carried me away.

But the thing is, the emotion behind it is dulled for the listener when it’s a standard element in a vocalist’s performance.

    Saw the Strokes in Berlin in February 2020. They played Adults are talking for the first time and it blew me away. The whole concert was great. Shortly after corona came and concerts were no more. When the album finally came out I was immediately hooked on Ode to the meets, to a point where I would autistically listen to that song on repeat. For months. On my way to work and back home... just this song... Corona made the subways empty and the streets eerie. Ode To The Mets was my loyal companion in those weird weird times.

    I recently moved out to go to university and I definitely wasn't ready for it. I never liked my town, but the distance from my family was hard. This song was very comforting to me during the bad days, "it's just the story i tell to you" I didn't want to admit how difficult it was for me, "i needed you there, but I didn't know", I always thought i was fine being alone, until i moved to another city where I didn't know anybody. I realised that the reason why I liked being alone was because unconsciously I knew I had people "waiting for me, down on the street", until i met new unknown roads. Could keep going, but I'm gonna end here lol it's just interesting to listen to the song from this perspective, It changes everything

He vomitado bilis por ti, se me ha caído el pelo por ti, tengo nervio por ti, voy al psiquiatra por ti y hoy, hoy por fin apareces, maldita sea por fin apareció The Strokes, Doctor. Dijimos, este es el The Strokes de las masas, hoy The Strokes venía mejor, apapachamos a The Strokes , lo acariciamos. Gracias, The Strokes . ¡PÉRDONAME, VOCE!

    This is the best song to exist, ever. The first few dozen times I was stricken with this song musically. but then the day I finally looked up the lyrics I was wrecked. So nostalgic and so beautiful yet so far away and so fucking sad. Thank you for this one
