that feeling when you're 40 years old and you had a very, very tumultuous time in your 20s and then you forget about an album that was pivotal to your time living and partying in NYC as a 21 year old with an unstable identity and then you hear the first bars of one of the songs and suddenly you can smell the perfume you used to wear, with an undernote of the cigarettes you used to smoke and you can taste the drip in your throat from all the cocaine you were doing
I'm now 56, and obviously I've got a huge back catalogue to choose from. And it so much depends on my mood, but, if I had to name my top ten tracks of all time. This makes it in. No ifs, no buts.
This song that comes into my head every once in a while, and I go nuts trying to remember what it is. But then I find it and listen to it for like 10 times in a row, just to get it out of my system. So much energy in this tune, amazing
Learnt the song from Colin McRae Dirt 2 , have played and sang it live once with a band in my university. This is a very powerful song , and very nostalgic . I even had it as a ringtone for a while !

Who's here in 2024!!? Damn, this is nostalgic! Such a great ass song!
The most criminally underrated band of all time.
"when I used go out I would know everyone I saw, now i go out alone if I go out at all" 🖤
Ah - to now be 43 making oatmeal for my little boy at 7am still listening to this. One of those timeless, well crafted tracks.
The Only other Group from NEW YORK CITY that can give THE STROKES some serious Blank Generation Firepower!!!!!!!!
When I'm feeling down music always lifts me back up. Anyone else?

Man they really gave their all on this one. The energy is infectious.
Never EVER get tired of hearing this. The Walkmen can be happy that they have created one of the best songs of all time. Job done lads and thank you.
Drummers got a nerve to be shredding those fills like he does

Still the best song ever! So great to see these guys playing again in London a couple of months back, what a night that was!
An anthem. It doesn't get any better than this...
