      @@maria-melek I've lived in a lot of cities in the US, including SF and Portland, and the only place in the US I know that has ever had Indie Dance clubs is Jacksonville, FL where I lived in the 00s and knew the Black Kids. The singer (Reginald Youngblood), the drummer (Kevin Snow), and myself used to all DJ in Indie Dance Clubs there back then. I'm not sure if there's still a thriving Indie scene there, but when I moved there in 1999, it had been going strong since the mid-80s. It was a blast to be able to go out and dance to stuff like Pixies, New Order, My Bloody Valentine, and Blur as if it was the latest hit by *NSYNC or 'Lil Wayne. When I moved from there to SF (around the time the first Black Kids LP dropped) there were a couple of great Indie nights here and there, but the scene seemed less about music and dancing and more about fashion. In Jacksonville, FL it was a whole-ass multigenerational scene, comprised of (easily) a couple thousand people who could be found divided between indie clubs, live shows, and house parties on any given night... ALL with a strong tendency toward ass-shaking.

      This sounds nothing like the Strokes to me. A lot of bands existed back then before 45 year old men started writing pop songs for teens full time. Now, it’s a lot of over produced nepo babies touring in private jets. Very sad how the music inducted ended up.
      We still have amazing music though. Allie X, still like Lady Gaga, Janelle Monae, Megan The Stallion, Christine and the Queens, Snow Tha Product, TV on the Radio, The National, Kendrick Lamar, Toddrick Hall, Shea Coulee, Vitallic, LCD , Grines, Peaches is still around, Fiona Apple is still around, Bjork. too many to list etc .

      @@c9inglul129 The irony is that it was written and sang by a man, and that it isn’t a gay unrequited love song. The singer has stated that the only reason he says “You are the girl, that I’ve been dreaming of since I was a little girl” (the main line that makes this song sound as if it’s by a lesbian) is because it’s a reference to his own childhood, and how his older sister would call him a little girl even though he was actually a little boy.

    What's wrong with the Glee version is that uses synthsisors to replace the instrumentals, and the instruments is what, in my opinion, makes the song so great, the mix of a generic pop jam with a Indie instrumentals and singing, and Glee took that away in they'r version
